[Genhis][2.0.15] Rocket full with items refuses to launch and keeps requesting additional items that won't fit

Post by FluffyDiscord »

Rocket capacity calculation seems a bit weird, and it confuses rocket silos.

I am using simple mod that modifies vanilla recipe for red circuits (basically a cheat mod)

When I try sending up to my space platform, for example, 32k of these red circuits, I would expect the rocket to fill up as much it can and send its stuff up. What actually happens is - nothing. It thinks that there is not enough stuff to fill the rocket up, which is not true. 4 thousand circuits fill up in 1 rocket, but due to the weight calculation, it thinks rocket can hold 100 stacks.

Then once I do have the 106 stacks on Nauvis, the rocket then requests circuits from logistic network, filling up the rocket with the four thousand circuits and never launches. It gets stuck, trying to request the rest of the 106 stacks that will not fit in.

I would expect the rocket to just fill up all its slots and just launch, if there are no more free slots, disregarding the weight limits.

Hi. Could you please include a save file where you observed this?

Sure, here: https://gofile.io/d/t4mi38

Switch to Nauvis remote view and observe the top rocket silo (middle left of the base). Space platform name is Mayasuran

Also including mods, I am not sure if there are any experimental (non public) mods I was tinkering with: https://gofile.io/d/5AuAuR

This looks like a case that was just never accounted for (1 rockets worth of some item not fitting into the inventory)
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.

I've run into this too, I'd love it if this was fixed.

Yeah, I've had this happen too when modding item weight. If an item has greater rocket capacity than the 20 stacks the silo can take, the silo will get stuck requesting more than it can fit.



Click silo and turn auto-request on to see the bots get confused.

You don't even need mods for this, you get the same problems with blueprints (see my bug 121542) there simply aren't enough slots to fill a rocket with them.
(not that there's any reason you would want to send a rocket with a blueprint, let alone 10,000 of them)

Thanks for the report, it's fixed for the next release. Some minor issues related to this are still present (rockets not launching or requesting items), I'm thinking about a good way to solve them.

Ah okay, I was wondering why I cannot see it in the changelog from 25.11.
