[0.16.51] Diggy scenario - no miner update on growing orefield

Post by Blacky007 »

I'am playing a sceanario where you have to digg through the ground and the ore fields are getting bigger.
we placed 1 miner to show the orefield value on a digital screen - but the value doesn't update when we are opening more and more of that orefield.

There are 10 types of people: those who get this joke and those who don't.

the miner is active all the time - and the ore field is growing.

Thanks for the report however this is working as intended. We purposefully cached the ore entities on enabling that circuit condition to avoid the massive lag it would cause if it re-scanned the patch every time it updated the values.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.

if the Ore field is getting smaller everything is fine and you get the new value.
