To reproduce, load this save, which uses my Filter Chests mod to add an alternative linked chest prototype. (The fact that it is filtered is irrelevant to the bug report).

Setup

Hover over any of the top chests and run this command

Code: Select all

/c chest = game.player.selected game.player.surface.create_entity{name = "fc-filter-linked-chest", position = chest.position, force = chest.force, fast_replace = true}

Expected outcome

That chest now has iron in it, all other chests are not changed

Actual outcome

That chest now has iron in it, all other chests of type “linked-chest” are empty

Workaround

In my mod I am no longer using fast_replace = true when chest.type == "linked-container", instead I am copying the link_id myself and destroying the old chest afterwards.

The same behaviour was observed in 1.1.62.

Thanks for the report, it's now fixed for the next release.
