Requester Chest to many items?

Post by YucaipaCA »

Newb here thanks in advance. Every time I request items in a requester chest it sets the number to 100 or 50. So I put in the request and all my robots bring way to much stuff. for example I olny want to set the number in the requester chest to 10. But when I click on an item in the menu my logistic robots bring way too many to the chest because it automatically sets the number way to high. Is there a way to olny reuest 1 or maybe 5 or what ever other number than 100 or 50 of something. Thanks.

You can change it to default to 1 in the settings.

You can access Options from the first screen after loading Factorio, or from a game by hitting ESC.

Go to Options>Interface and as of 0.16.25 it's under the Interaction header (the right column of checkboxes) and you'll want to tick "Set logistic request count to 1 instead of stack size".
