[0.12.29] [Ondra] Strange regrouping when shift-click ammo to turret

Post by qsquared »

Okay, so I've been using shift and ctrl click for a while on resources.

I'm aware that when I take a stack and place it into something using shift it places the whole stack from my cursor.

this is working correctly for the most part.

However I realised that, at least for ammo, when shft-click placing it into a turret, the result is the game stacks all the remaining ammo in your inventory and all your quick-access slots onto your cursor. (I didn't check to see what happens when there is more then a couple stacks worth of ammo divided amongst a bunch of slots, I'm interested to know so I might play around with it..)

It doesn't stack the ammo I have equipped (though I didn't try multiple stacks in that area) but it does stack everything to my cursor regardless of whether I source from my inventory or my equipped ammo.

In any case here are example screen shots to show a couple scenarios.

Yeah I don't like that either (it's not only the ammo, but about anything). But as time passes, and I automate, it's something I forget quickly :).
It's only a pain when you do things manually.

That is correct behaviour.

I'm not exactly sure if this behaviour is what you're reporting here, but if so, this is not a bug. If you wanted to report something else, then please clarify.

I see. I was trying to have set amounts of stuff to put in several spots, once I have tons of stuff in my inventory it's better this way, but when I have limited supplies it's frustratinng this way. so I guess six one way half a dosen the other. but then, usually byt he time i have lots of something I don;t spend a lot of time clicking it around.
