Green chests continue to provide content to the logistics network even when the chest is disabled by logic

Post by Mapc86 »

actually, the description of the bug is in the title. I consider it a bug, because all other chests in the logic-disabled state do not provide their content to the network. and as for the greens, this is the only way I know of to control the drones on the walls, so that they fly to repair only when I give permission and do not die there en masse. please fix the issue with the green chest so that when I turn it off with a boolean it doesn't give the drones anything.
p.s. i was so excited to be able to control chests with logic and suddenly such a disappointment.

Thanks for the report however this is not what the enable disable setting on the control behavior does. The setting stops new requests. The contents are always available to the network.

but in the case of other chests (for example - red ones), the logical condition precisely prohibits access to the contents of the chest!
so in general it looks like something unfinished, because the logic is broken. in the ideal case, 2 checkboxes are needed there - request control and content control. so I insist there is a problem here.

If you insist, then I can move this to ideas and suggestions. However as it is working is how it was intended to work.

this is a very strange intend - to do it differently where you expect it to be identical. ok, if this is the only way to affect the situation - I ask to move it.
