I don't think the inserter should move to the rails without a train.

Example:
If the cargo wagon has a filter to only allow iron but on the transport belt is coal and iron then it could grab coal instead and be stuck. (And it looks bad)

It looks like inserter moves to the rail to feed Locomotive with coal - what does it have to do with wagons and their wagon filters?

Thats no cargo wagon.

The inserter picks up the item without any train and then it can happen that it has an item that doesn't fit into the filter.


This doesn't work too.
Its a supply train with the inserter on a requester chest. It will grab an item out of the chest and get stuck after the train leaves.

Thanks for the report. Inserters had this logic for when they had a container pickup source but not for belts for some reason. I made it work for any kind of pickup target for the next version of 0.15.

Thanks for the fast fix

I've tested 0.15.6 now and I noticed 2 things.

This freezing looks weird.


and it can get stuck loading items into the train if the amount of items that fit into the train are less than the inserter is picking up at one time.

That has been the case for a long time, you need to use one chest per item-type, but now you might be able to make it work with the new stack-size-overwrite-circuit-logic.

Thank you for this fix!

I knew my OCD wasn't wrong. The game was wrong. I knew it!

Thank you. I can feel okay again.
