[14.21]Blueprint carries ghost signal

Hello, first, your game is awesome!

I encountered a ghost signal which was carried over by a Blueprint.

I sent a signal of 500 Iron Plates with the red wire to the requesterchests.
After placing a blueprint with this combination, but not signal on the red wire, the bots will bring a few iron plates to the chest.

The logistic container has a request for 500 iron plates in the blueprint so when it's built it still has that request until the next update when the "set filters from signals" runs and is removed due to the 500 iron plate signal not existing anymore..

Container blueprints should not copy request signals.

What? How would you ever blueprint a requester chest with requests set then? Of course they should blueprint requests.

Manual request yes.

Circuit network requests no.

I agree with this. See also viewtopic.php?f=48&t=37061 which is closely related to this issue.
