Issue description
Unsure if this is intentional or not, but it is currently a serious flaw in the game mechanics.
Excavators often spend a significant amount of time in status "Loading cargo (WaitingForTruck, Stopped)" due to how you extract material from the ground and then load it into a loose storage unit. When the storage unit is full, all the trucks will just pause, leaving the excavators hanging... literally. While they are still consuming fuel. All other machines are able to turn off their engines while idling and waiting. But not excavators?
Reproduction steps
- dig stuff with excavators
- have its trucks deliver the stuff to a an already full loose storage unit
- mouseover on the excavators fuel status and observe fuel consumption while stopped and waiting for trucks to return
