    Fun thing about taking Factorio physical is that the game already has a real scale. A tile is a metre, that's what the km/h readouts for vehicles are based on. So a yellow belt moves at basically walking pace, and the engineer runs everywhere at about 30 km/h all day without getting tired. The mining drill that eats a whole ore patch is a 3x3m box.

      guessing the suit has an exoskeleton built into by default, and the exoskeleton equipment simply boosts the performance

        I think my body would still be worn raw if it were moved at that speed for an extended amount of time.
