[0.14.20] Robot stuck cause by lock chest

[fregate84]

Hello,


I have discover a bug.

All my robots are stuck, and it's because I lock all slot of one yellow chest. But lots of others yellow chest are available.

If I unlock this chest, all return to normal.

Why would you ever do that with a chest?

I don't consider this worth the slowdown it will cause to "fix". Just don't do that.

To void it before delete it.

1st a "lock" some chest. Then train come, robots fill train with chest, and few min late chest are void.




Note : in this case it s a mistake i forgot one chest.

Just an idea for the fix without causing (much) performance issue:
if all slots are locked, the logistic chest is considered out of the logistic network (it becomes a normal chest). Any slot being unlocked will cause the chest to go back to the network.

Or don't get possible to player to block all slots of a chest.

You can replace chests but keep their inventory intact, just click with an active-provider chest in hand, the robots will empty it, or with a steel chest in hand, the robots will ignore it. Change the chest type will also compact the inventory, that can get handy sometimes.

The logical way to remove logistic chests is what fregate84 tried.
The "right" way to remove logistic chests is to fast replace them with either steel or active-provider.

So why does the expected behaviour occur with both the passive provider chest (items in locked cells are removed) and the requester chest (a fully locked chest requesting items prevents any items from being delivered). Can't the mechanism that causes the "robot line" realise that the chest is full when they arrive be used? Only ask as the requester chest seems to work that way.
