[modded] Copy/Paste between inserters

Post by DrJones »

I've found a copy/paste bug between inserters. This is using Bob's Adjustable Inserters.

I've manually set the top inserter in the screenshot to have pickup and dropoff range 2 instead of the default 1.

Then I've copy/pasted that to the bottom inserter.

The screenshot shows that the yellow arrow of the bottom inserter is correct: It has range 2.

However, the white target square is incorrect: It has range 1.

And anything the bottom inserter picks up is actually dropped at range 1, even though it looks like it's being dropped at range 2.

I've attached the savegame, using Factorio 0.18.6 and Bob's Adjustable Inserters 0.18.0.

To reproduce use shift left+right click to copy paste settings from one existing inserter to another.

In contrast, copy + paste ghost + place inserter over ghost manually will adjust the settings of the inserter correctly.

It used to work either way in 0.17, now does not.

Bobingabout said, this is a thing mods cannot control.

Thanks for the report. It's now fixed for the next release.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.

12 minutes from report to fix. I'm impressed! Thanks for the quick fix!

Actually, this isn't completely fixed.

In this game, you're standing next to two inserters. The one closest to you is set up with range two in a 90 degree angle. Copy-paste from this inserter to the one next to it, which has a different base orientation. This one now has yellow arrows showing a 90 degree angle, but white boxes showing an 180 degree angle. Is the angle perhaps not copied correctly?
