As a player gets further and further into the game, more and more items get placed into the logistics network. The current pane that shows what's available when a player hovers over a requester or provider box needs the ability to change two things (maybe three):

• List should be able to be sorted by different methods such as the current method of number of items max to min, but also by name or type. A search function would be nice, but not necessary (the third option mentioned above).
• List should either have a scroll bar to see lower items when it grows too large, or should detach from the right pane into it's own pane that shows all inventory.

There is a thread about it in Bug Reports ‹ Known issues

There also is a mod that gives a very nice overview of the logistic network (including a search function):
[MOD 0.12.12+] Advanced Logistics System 0.2.10

You rock. Thank you!

Yeah, especially with mods adding so many new items (and I pretty much only use my own mods), I find the logistics overview panel completely useless.

Once I do something like, strip mining, and end up with several million of each type of ore... well, I don't really need to know I have several million of each type of ore anymore, yet they're all right at the top, blocking more useful information from being shown.

So, yes, it definitely needs re-working in my opinion.

Thanks to daniel34 - this is perfect usable in frequently suggestions. So moved.
