the example from the API works as intended, fully replaces the current auto trash with what is in the new table.
But I can't seem to modify the existing table, only replace it.
doesn't work
does work

I've tried a lot of variations on this, using dot notation or character instead of player; all with the same results.

how can I modify a single entry of the table, but leave everything else?

Also what is the event for modifying player logistic/auto trash slots?

It is either replaced with the new table (like fluid boxes, but typically the api would tell us), or the table needs to be edited directly


local filters = game.player.auto_trash_filters

--modify filters table

if it needs to replace then:
game.player.auto_trash_fiters = filters

copying to a local variable, then replacing worked for me. thanks!

do you know what event is triggered when the players logistic request/auto trash slots are modified?

There is none.

There is none.

So if I want to do something when that happens, I would need to use on_tick and then somehow check if the slots have been modified manually?
