Logistic Slots
Posted: Wed Jan 20, 2016 5:32 pm
I think all logistic slots should have a maximum and a minimum. This way we only need one logistic chest, and would not need trash slots for our inventory. The only other thing needed would be an any item similar to the * introduced with the circuit network.
Active Provider is the same as min = 0 any, max = 0 any
Passive provider is the same as min = 0 item, max = 1M item
Requester is the same as min = # item, max = # item, (as it works today, i guess max would really be # + logistic cargo size - 1)
Storage is the same as min = 0 any, max = 1M any
If the logic chest has less than the min, it actively requests that item. If it has more than the max it actively tries to remove the item. If the item is in between min and max it is available to store additional items, or provide the item.
This would allow bots to return extra items to "passive providers" up to their max.
This also solves the common request of auto trash slots for the personal inventory.
