TL;DR
When copying recipes to requester chests, don't request more than 48 stacks.What?
By shift-right-clicking an assembling machine and shift-left-clicking to a requester chest,I can copy a recipe to the chest,
that is, the chest will be requesting the materials needed for that recipe.
The amount of materials being requested is what is needed to run this assembling machine for 30 seconds.
If it is surrounded by speedy beacons the chest will request more.
However, for certain recipes such as those that need a lot of LDS,
because each stack is only 10 LDS,
the chest will end up with 48 stacks of LDS, blocking other materials.
I hope that the game can take the stack limit into consideration and automatically scale-down to 48 stacks.
Why?
On the one hand this is a QOL thing than can be safely ignored.But on the other hand if I have to manually check if each chest is requesting < 48 or > 48 stacks,
I might as well just compute my own number offline.
I know devs are busy with 2.0
(and I am excited about 2.0 too; will definitely buy on day 1)
so maybe this isn't the most important thing.
