Auto Trashed item makes empty spot on toolbelt blink

We are aware of them, but they have low priority. We have more important things to do. They go here in order not to take space in the main bug thread list.

Auto Trashed item makes empty spot on toolbelt blink

Post by gamestefan »

While replacing some yellow belts in my one of the maps I loaded into 0.16.4 (pre 0.16 map) I noticed the following:

When an item is configured for auto tarsh without any remaining quanity (see Auto Trash attachment). Quick replacing or crafting that item results in a blinking empty spot on the toolbelt. (see the other two attachments). Please not that I am not in range of any roboport.

To me it seems like a minor graphical glitch and it doesn't reduce the fun of the game in any way :)

Thanks for the report. This is due to the item being put into your toolbelt and then in the same tick it's moved into the trash slots by the auto-trash logic. So, you never see the belts but they still moved through the toolbelt.

There's no solution that wouldn't add a massive amount of complexity to the inventory transfer logic so far now I'm going to move to to minor issues.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.

Just had this pop up when using the infinity box, as well. Same process, I think?
