[0.16.13] electric network item count doubled with roboports

Post by tenim »

hello,

if i connect a roboport to a electric network with a passive provider chest and set the roboport mode to "read content of logistics network", the network info (mouseover powerpole) shows always the items in
the chest doubled. screenshot and savegame attached.

Do You have roboport also connected? Roboport by default also send content of logistic storage. So chest sends "one furnace", roboport also sends "one furnace" which gives You two furnaces on wire.

yes, the roboport is also connected. ok, i dont know about this behavior. makes this sense?

i want a automated supply with walls and repair kits for my peripheral. the only way to read the amount of available repair kits is to connect the roboport to the network. but then, the values are wrong.
putting repair kits in a chest is also no option, because the robots take them from the cest, repair things, fly back to the roboport and store the repair kits in the roboport.

Would it work if you read the roboport with a green wire and the chest with a red wire?
