[0.12.x][Twins]UI not updated after calling set_request_slot

[fcaf]

When a mod calls set_request_slot on an opened requester chest, the UI for the request slots does not reflect the changed value until the chest is closed and re-opened (or other user action on those slots).

To reproduce, open a logistic requester chest and run

Code: Select all

/c game.player.opened.set_request_slot({name = 'raw-wood', count = 25}, 1)

Note that the request slots don't change. Upon re-opening the chest, you will correctly see the new request values.

Fixed in 0.12.13.

I'm playing with version 0.12.26 from Steam
The problem resurfaced, the UI again doesn't show the change until reopening after the posted LUA command, altough the logistic robots start to fill the chest as soon as the command is entered.

Reverted the fix in 0.13 because it reintroduced this bug: viewtopic.php?t=18486

To be fixed properly in 0.13

After being fixed and un-fixed 2 times and half a year later I decided to move this to 'minor issues'.

This is a problem with all the gui's in game. If you have a gui open and it is changed by another player(in multiplayer) or by script, you will not se the change until you re-open the gui.

Might seem like something simple but to fix this, the system of latency hiding would have to be implemented in our gui system, something not worth the work for something that is rarely noticeable.
