I'm not 100% sure if this is a glitch, but it's so op that I'll just post it here. so I was experimenting with cogwheels today, and thought, what if I could do the reverse how the effect where the large cogwheel halves the rpm of the small cogwheel? So I tried it, and to my surprise, it worked. So I kept repeating this over and over, and eventually obtained 256 RPM from 1 RPM. I kind of hope this gets removed.

This isn't a glitch and is intended

Yeah just to explain a bit, there's two units associated with rotation in Create: RPM and Stress Units.
Basically, when you increase the RPM, you decrease the amount of machines you can run at that higher speed.
