Can't request or filter coin

[oliveawesomesauz]

I used the scenario editor to create a chest full of coins, and I figured I'd use them to stress test my power plant by forcing robots to move them to other chests. However, I can't find 'coin' in the menu for the requester chest or the filter inserter.

I'm using a bunch of mods.

The coin item has the "hidden" property. You need to write a mod that removes it, or use a console command to set the filter.

But it would be easier to just use a non-hidden item for your tests, like alien artifact.

This seems intentional, and coin is not the only item with that flag.

I think the bug is that hidden items show in the map editor.

It seems to me that you shouldn't be able to have items in chests that you can't manage normally using the logistic network, that said I understand the usefulness of hidden items in reducing clutter in the already cluttered item menu. I'm not sure what the solution is.
