Resin -> plant ball loop net gain.

Resin at ULV in centrifuge gives 10% chance for planball. Plant ball smelts (via slimeball) to double resin.
So at HV this route is a net gain. That means infinite biomass and all the derivatives.

I don't see how there is a net gain, it's a 10% chance to get a plantball from one resin. That means it takes on average 10 resin to gain 1 plantball, which becomes 2 slimeballs, which becomes 2 resin, resulting on average an 80% loss.

To get this to become an actual infinite loop you'll need IV level centrifuges with the bonus output modifiers, which by then this entire loop seems somewhat underpowered compared to relative options.

Doesn't chances double each overclocking? At HV it's 80% to get plantball, so it's 1.6 resins on average on every loop.

I think even on HV this method can't produce ethanol. Closing.
