[1.1.69] Item request proxy doesn't go down in some cases

Post by ickputzdirwech »

To recreate:
  • Create a beacon (or any other entity with module slots) with an item-request-proxy with a request for only one module
  • Insert the requested module into the machine manually
  • Observe that the item-request-proxy still requests one module

Thanks for the report however this is working correctly. The request to deliver the modules is not related to anything you do manually. By placing the blueprint with the request for 1 module you are saying "I want robots to put these modules into this", if you also add modules the robots will still put the requested ones you asked for. If they won't fit they will be removed from the to-deliver list.

Either you want the robots to do it or you don't. If you don't, don't ask the robots to do it. If you changed your mind you can remove the request by right clicking it.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.

This is not correct. If the number of requested modules matches the number of empty slots, the item request will be reduced when you insert modules manually.
