[0.10.0]Filters carry over on logistic chests to storage
Found a small one; when you place a storage chest on a requester chest the filters are carried over to the storage chest. It still accepts everything tho, would be nice if we could actually filter them so you can have multiple items in your drone net without clogging all the chests with coal or something silly.

I don't get how the weird-coloured picture related to the bug.
Suggestion: A "Before", "After" and "Long time After" picture

What do you mean weird coloured?
The picture shows a storage chest with a filter for copper ore, that's not supposed to be there.
EDIT:
Let me try to explain this again. When you place a chest over another type of chest the new chest replaces the old one. When you do this with a storage (yellow) chest on a requester (blue) chest it keeps the filter from the blue chest for the yellow one, which doesn't do anything.

EDIT: Ignore the tone of this post if you can. It's not meant to say anything even remotely similar to "I know what's the best and if you do anything just a little bit differently I'll kill you and your friends and family"
Partially because I haven't been able to run factorio for half of the versions now,
partially because it seems to be taken at night (a daytime screenshot would be preferred if relevant)
Such picture then doesn't help seeing you didn't do anything wrong, but only confuses.
(A proper picture would instead show the storage chest GUI with the filter set like you describe ... and containing other items)
Didn't know you could filter a requester chest (your you mean the items-to-be-requested-list?)
a) Rebuilding a requester chest with a filter into a storage chest preserves the filter information (i.e. allows player to obtain a storage chest w/filter)
b) A filter set in that way doesn't work (And assuming that a filter set on a fresh storage chest works correctly)

The important part is the filter configuration, not the storage area layout.The picture shows a storage chest with a filter for copper ore, that's not supposed to be there.

Oh, so that's it. (Please DO complain if I got it wrong)EDIT:

Yeah you're right, looking at it now it's complete shit, my badThe important part is the filter configuration, not the storage area layout.

Yes, the items to be requested list.
a) is the bug i'm talking about. b) would be a nice feature though.
I think i kind of overcomplicated it, not enough sleep when i made the first post and it got too rambly.
Re: [0.10.0]Filters carry over on logistic chests to storage
Hello, the fact that the filters get copied to the storage chest is a bug, and it is fixed for 0.10.1.
The filter in the storage chest had no function or effect.
Filtering storage chests might be a feature in the future, but it will be set differently.
