Situation:

When transporting biter eggs on a space station for making science.

I set the biter egg inserter to spoiled only.

Expected result : The eggs with the shortest timer gets processed first.

Actualy result : the last egg to enter the spacestation gets processed first ( the eggs get selected right to left, bottom to top )

Reproduce :
Use spacestation and put eggs with different timers in there and observe eggs being removed.

Thanks for the report however I can't reproduce any issue. Are you sure you're not running into the same thing as this report? 126807

I looks similar, But i basically have it on demand. I looked for the spaceship hub so didnt find the landing pad thing.
If they are the same item code wise then it might he the same bug.

I can provide save that will have it happen every time, though i did provide every step in the description.
Only saw it today, running the latest released version, but it could have been there before i just noticed it.

The hub and landing pad work identically when it comes to inserters. Can you check the inserter directly after it removes an item (look in the inserter GUI) and verify the spoilage amount in the inserter?

If you can provide the save I can look as well but at this point I’m almost certain it’s the same confusion and that it’s working correctly.
