Fast Inserters not working by turns

Hi everyone,

Regarding base mod 0.17.4.

I have noticed that one of the Fast Inserters 'A' is not working. Strangely, when I replace B with Inserter, then A starts working. In the two other setups on the right, one from which is exactly the same as the one with A and B, everything is working fine.

I did some testing and the problem is not showing in stable 0.16, 0.17.1, 0.17.2 and 0.17.3, vanilla, with mods...

Any ideas? Am I doing something wrong here? Or is it just a bug?

Cheers :)

There is no guarantee that inserters take turns. So working as intended.

Hmm, could you please press Shift+Space (or enable grid from debug) ?
I seem to remember reading that this kind of inserter logic could sometimes be affected by them being located in different chunks?

Shift+Space did the trick. Also I have to take back what I said before about other versions - Fast Inserters behave the same. Thanks for your replies.
