Solved [2.08 build 79416 win64] Filtered inserter not taking pipe from factory that changed recipes

build 2.08 (build 79416, win64)


What did you do?

I have a factory whose recipe is set via signal to make pipes or gears. I have 2 inserters with whitelist filters, one for gears and one for pipes.

What happened?

Pipes accumulate in the factory and are not being pulled by the inserter with pipes whitelisted.

What did you expect to happen instead? It might be obvious to you, but do it anyway!

I expected the inserter with pipes whitelisted to pull pipes from the factory and onto the belt.

Does it happen always, once, or sometimes?

This is the first time I've seen it happen. I attached the single player save game with my character standing at the site where the issue is happening. Pipes are in the factory, inserter with pipes whitelisted in the filter is not pulling any from the factory.

I just realized, maybe the iron plate in the factory is blocking the pipe whitelisted inserter from pulling the pipe? If that's the case, I'd expect the pipe whitelisted inserter to still pull the pipe out of the factory.
