Chemical Plant not working

Post by yoda8921 »

Greetings!
I'm having trouble getting anything to automatically feed into my Chemical Plant. I'm currently attempting to make batteries. I've tried multiple inserters but I can't get anything into it. I can easily get inserters to get stuff out of it. Screen shot below. Note it is the top chemical plant I'm currently working on.

It seems like the output is backed up. Inserters won't put things into a chemical plant / assembling machine if the output is backed up (I think it's 2 recipes worth)

Clear the output and chemical plant resumes production. If production is not resumed or plant did not produce anything yet, it is another problem. So post screenshot with Alt key overlay enabled and we take a look.
