Placing Last Inserter Adds Filter(s)

Post by Technofi123 »

When I place the last inserter, of any type, I have in my inventory, it automatically adopts a filter for the item(s) required by the recipe of the assembler its attached to. Have only attempted with assembler 2. Running 2.0.15 and Space Age DLC.

Thanks for the report. It sounds like you re-bound the paste hotkey to the build hotkey. Can you please check your control settings and make sure that "paste entity settings" is not the same as "build"?

Ghost build and paste entity settings have the same hotkey. Doing some more testing, when I have the settings of an assembler selected and then place inserters with construction robots, the last inserter sometimes copies the settings of which ever assembler recipe is copied. Seems to be 25/75 that it copies the settings to the last inserter. Probably random chance but it seems less likely to copy the settings when I have the inserters placed in a east/west orientation vs a north/south orientation.
