[2.0.77] Parametrized Ghost Items placed in inventories remain as parameters

Post by electrocutie »

When a parameter item is placed as a ghost in an inventory and then blueprinted the parameter item isn't replaced when the blueprint is placed, it remains the parameter item

Here is a blueprint demonstrating that. The parameter is of course replaced on the inserter's filter but not in the chest's inventory

Discovered when making pre-combinator mechanical computers in pyanodon but confirmed in vanilla
The inserter's filter is changed but not the ghost in the box

Thanks for the report however this was never a supported option for parameters.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.

Should I move it to a feature request, then?
