[2.0.11] Silo circuit "read space platform" has inconsistent behavior on silo launch

[doktorstick]

When reading request signals from the space platform through the silo, it presents incorrect information during a rocket launch[1].

In this case, I was requesting 1000 metallurgic science pack (MSP) on my platform. My silo was reading the signal and it showed that it was requesting 1000 MSP. I was using an inserter to insert the MSP.

Once the rocket cargo reached 1000 MSP (1 ton), the rocket automatically launched[2]. The MSP signal disappeared. During the delivery flight, it came back long enough for my inserter to insert 2 MSP (one swing IIRC), then went away again. It came back a second time and was present for the inserter to insert an additional ~54 MSP. Once the MSP delivery completed, the signal remained zero.


[1] Side note: I find the interaction with the rocket a bit inscrutable. I still don't think I can send one inserter and one wall in one launch in an automated fashion, which is mind-boggling to me.

[2] This behavior isn't described in-game AFAIK; I stumbled upon it.

I have expirinced the same behaviour.

Thanks for the report, I can't reproduce it. I think it is a duplicate of 116949.
