Don't bulk-move items in locked slots into containers

Post by Suz »

TL;DR
When ctrl+click -ing in player inventory the items that you locked into inventory slots shouldn't move if the target is a box

What ?
I often move stuff around via inventory and sometimes accidentally click on empty slot in inventory, this causes the entire inventory to get emptied into the open container (or crafting machine, but that' usually desired). It also triggers logistics network delivering all the items it has in request slots which you then need to get rid of.

I think it doesn't make sense to do that and item stacks in locked slots shouldn't be bulk moved
Why ?
Misclicking the inventory while holding ctrl creates a huge mess that you then need to waste time cleaning, while the scenarios where you *really* wanted to move all items (including locked slots) are (in my opinion) close to none, in addition to that it'll support the scenario where you just want to throw the random leftovers to active provider chest so logistics deal with it while you move on to other stuff
