Increase inserter filter_count max to 10

In 0.12.29 the maximum value of a programmable inserter's filter_count setting is 5.
I'd like it to be increased to 10 for increased mod fun.

I havn't actually tried modding that value myself, but, wouldn't a mod be able to increase that number? I do remember seeing something about it in the data files, though I havn't looked since I modded the logistics mod, so it's been a few months at least, my memory isn't that good.

No. The limit is 5 in the prototype definition; that's what I'd like to see increased.

So you want the softcode changing in the data files?
Well, it is a possibility now that smart inserters will be replaced by filter inserters in 0.13, now that any inserter can be connected to the circuit network.

Even so it's highly likely that they'll reuse the filter code and keep the limit of how many item types you can filter on
