How change the default amount for Logistic request

Post by zealot146 »

Hello all,

I have a question, when I made a logistic request (for my personal character or a requester chest) the amount is first set to the maximum of the stack, and I can adjust the amount only after the request order have been set.
For example if I want 5 processing unit, when I request them, when I click on the item, the default amount is 100 but if I set the amount to 5, robots will first give me 100 because the request is already send.
Is there a way to set default amount to 0, so we can choose how many we want after pick up the desire item from the list ?

thanks for your help !

You can't with vanilla. You have to use mods for that.
[Edit] Like this ones : viewtopic.php?f=91&t=16945, viewtopic.php?f=151&t=16087
Maybe does this one work too : viewtopic.php?f=92&t=8207

Don't forget to write to all developers (esp. Kovarex) to change this, so you won't need a mod anymore. Because the default behavior is really not good at all.
