Filters on a linked chest seems to only persist if there is at least ONE other existing chest with the same link ID as the ID you just changed away from.

What I expected, was place down linked chest.
change its link ID to 1.
set a filter for coal, and a filter for iron ore.
pick up the chest.

set the chest down somewhere else.
change its link ID to 1
expected to see a filter for coal, and a filter for iron ore.


What actually happened.
set the chest down somewhere else.
change its link ID to 1
filters no longer exist.

Thanks for the report. Issue is now fixed for 1.1.63.

Next time please report by creating a new topic in the Bug reports subforum since this is the place where it has the highest chance of being noticed and i also need a link to put in the changelog. Using a release topic fails on both (no link and not visible)
