1. Create a filter for one item, such as repair pack


2. Attempt to insert another item such as iron-plate or uranium-ore

3. Expected result. (as shown by attempting to insert non-repair pack item into a repair-pack filter slot with a cargo wagon)


3. Actual result. (as shown by attempting to insert non-repair pack item into a repair-pack filter slot with any regular chest)


Inserters will properly respect your filters, but manual insertion of item does not.

Thanks for the report. It's now fixed for the next release.

How do you do this? Is this possible in vanilla or do you need some mod for this?

It's a mod. It was recently made possible for mods to add filters to normal chests.
