[0.16.16] Requester Chests requests grouped weirdly
Posted: Sat Jan 20, 2018 6:14 pm
Not sure if this is working as intended:
I've made a little test setup, Provider Chests filled with red and green circuits on the left, Requester Chests on the right, the top one requesting 9000 green circuits, all the other one requesting 9000 red circuits each.
There's a little over 400 bots, and they seem to be split up evenly over the materials requested, not the number of chests requesting: 200 for the chest requesting red circuits, and 200 for all other chests combined (resulting in 800 green circuits and 6x128 = 768 red circuits being delivered).
If there are enough bots, this isn't a problem, but when I'm unloading and loading several trains at once the red circuit chest stays nicely topped up, while the other ones are slowly being drained. I expected there would simply be 400/7 = 58 bots per chest delivering.
