* [[Prototype/LinkedBelt]] '''linked-belt'''
* [[Prototype/Loader1x1]] '''loader-1x1'''

* [[Prototype/TransportBelt]] '''transport-belt'''
* [[Prototype/UndergroundBelt]] '''underground-belt'''
 
== Mandatory properties ==
This prototype inherits all the properties from [[Prototype/EntityWithOwner]].
 
{{Prototype property|speed|[[Types/double|double]]}}
The speed of the belt (since 0.17): <code>speed × 480 = x Items/second</code>
 
The raw value is expressed as the number of tiles traveled by each item on the belt per tick, relative to the belt's maximum density - e.g. <code>x items/second ÷ (4 items/lane × 2 lanes/belt × 60 ticks/second) = <speed> belts/tick</code> where a "belt" is the size of one tile. See [[Transport_belts/Physics]] for more details.
 
Must be a positive non-infinite number. The number is a fixed point number with 8 bits reserved for decimal precision, meaning the smallest value step is 1/2^8 = 0.00390625. In the simple case of a non-curved belt, the rate is multiples of 1.875 items / s, even though the entity tooltip may show a different rate.
 
== Optional properties ==
 
{{Prototype property|animation_speed_coefficient|[[Types/double|double]]|1|optional=true}}
 
{{Prototype property|belt_animation_set|[[Types/table|table]]|optional=true}}
Either this, or all of the properties below this one have to be present.
 
Table with the following properties:
 
* animation_set - [[Types/RotatedAnimation|RotatedAnimation]] - Mandatory.
* east_index - [[Types/uint8|uint8]] - Optional. - Default: 1
* west_index - [[Types/uint8|uint8]] - Optional. - Default: 2
* north_index - [[Types/uint8|uint8]] - Optional. - Default: 3
* south_index - [[Types/uint8|uint8]] - Optional. - Default: 4
* starting_south_index - [[Types/uint8|uint8]] - Optional. - Default: 13
* ending_south_index - [[Types/uint8|uint8]] - Optional. - Default: 14
* starting_west_index - [[Types/uint8|uint8]] - Optional. - Default: 15
* ending_west_index - [[Types/uint8|uint8]] - Optional. - Default: 16
* starting_north_index - [[Types/uint8|uint8]] - Optional. - Default: 17
* ending_north_index - [[Types/uint8|uint8]] - Optional. - Default: 18
* starting_east_index - [[Types/uint8|uint8]] - Optional. - Default: 19
* ending_east_index - [[Types/uint8|uint8]] - Optional. - Default: 20
* ending_patch - [[Types/Sprite4Way|Sprite4Way]] - Optional.
* ends_with_stopper - [[Types/bool|bool]] - Optional. - Default: false
 
{{Prototype property|belt_horizontal|[[Types/Animation|Animation]]|optional=true}}
Mandatory if <code>belt_animation_set</code> is not present.
 
{{Prototype property|belt_vertical|[[Types/Animation|Animation]]|optional=true}}
Mandatory if <code>belt_animation_set</code> is not present.
 
{{Prototype property|ending_top|[[Types/Animation|Animation]]|optional=true}}
Mandatory if <code>belt_animation_set</code> is not present.
 
{{Prototype property|ending_bottom|[[Types/Animation|Animation]]|optional=true}}
Mandatory if <code>belt_animation_set</code> is not present.
 
{{Prototype property|ending_side|[[Types/Animation|Animation]]|optional=true}}
Mandatory if <code>belt_animation_set</code> is not present.
 
{{Prototype property|starting_top|[[Types/Animation|Animation]]|optional=true}}
Mandatory if <code>belt_animation_set</code> is not present.
 
{{Prototype property|starting_bottom|[[Types/Animation|Animation]]|optional=true}}
Mandatory if <code>belt_animation_set</code> is not present.
 
{{Prototype property|starting_side|[[Types/Animation|Animation]]|optional=true}}
Mandatory if <code>belt_animation_set</code> is not present.
 
{{Prototype property|ending_patch|[[Types/Sprite4Way|Sprite4Way]]|optional=true}}
Always optional. Only read if <code>belt_animation_set</code> is not present.
 
{{Prototype property|ends_with_stopper|[[Types/bool|bool]]|false|optional=true}}
 
== Mandatory values ==
Transport belt connectables have additional requirements for the properties inherited from [[Prototype/Entity]]:
* Transport belt connectable entities must collide with [[Types/CollisionMask#Layers|"transport-belt-layer"]].
* Transport belt connectable entities must have [[Types/CollisionMask#Collision_options|collision mask]] that collides with itself.
* Transport belt connectable entities cannot have collision mask that collides only with tiles (must collide with entities in some way).
* Transport belt connectable entities must have collision box of an appropriate minimal size, they should occupy more than half of every tile the entity covers.
* Transport belt connectable entities cannot have the [[Types/EntityPrototypeFlags#.22placeable-off-grid.22|"placeable-off-grid"]] flag specified.
