[2.0.39] Cargo landing pad requests by circuit not working on 1/2 space ships

Post by mooklepticon »

Describe the problem by answering these questions

What did you do?
I automated landing pad requests via circuit. Constant combinator requests are set (4.0k calcite, etc). Another combinator takes logistic network inventory and multiplies it by -1. So, if I have 3.0k calcite, it results -3.0k calcite. Add them together, so it's only requesting the deficit. (4.0k - 3.0k = 1.0k calcite). That's wired to the landing pad. The landing pad has set requests checked on. The landing pad shows that it's requesting 1.0k calcite.

I have a space ship flying from Nauvis to Vulcanus. It requests 1.0k calcite from Vulcanus. It has it, and is in orbit of Nauvis. It should be dropping calcite to Nauvis.

Additionally, this same setup works with orange science! It's working just fine! Just not calcite.
Additionally, I have this same setup with space science. I have a Nauvis orbiting platform that makes 1.0k space science and drops it when it's requested.


This is very confusing that it works on one ship/platform, but not the other.

What happened?
The calcite stays on the Nauvis - Vulcanus ship. The space science drops out of orbit. This worked before 2.0.39.

What did you expect to happen instead? It might be obvious to you, but do it anyway!
I expected to calcite to drop from orbit.

Does it happen always, once, or sometimes?
The calcite never drops. The space science does.

Not a bug.

Space Platform Starter logistic group (enabled on both platforms) contains a request for 50 Calcite from Nauvis.
If a platform requests something from a planet, it will not drop it down to the same planet.

That makes sense. Thank you.
