Filtered slots don't get auto trashed

Post by Pro_Factory_Grower »

TL;DR

Filtered slots will not be trashed when trash unrequested is turned on, unless you set a logistics request with a maximum limit and the item exceeds said limit.
What?

Basically, whatever is in your filter slots will never be auto trashed from the trash unrequested toggle, regardless if you have a logistics request for it or not. In order to trash the items in the filtered slot, you can simply remove the filter or put the items in the slot into the trash slots manually. If you have a logistics request for the item with a maximum limit, the excess items will still be auto trashed when that limit is exceeded. i know you could just set a request for the item, but that could be something you do if you want to, rather than being forced to.
Why?
Say you want to have a stack of fish in your inventory at all times (you don't have bots yet) and you put it in a dedicated filter slot so you'll always know where it is. You mine alot of rocks, and your inventory is full. You decide to trash unrequested in order to have more inventory space for stone. But because you didn't request fish to be put in your inventory, it gets trashed too with the filter slot now having 0 fish.
