[1.1.101] Furnaces don't report Output Full early enough
Posted: Thu Jan 11, 2024 5:02 pm
An assembler's status will report Output Full as soon as they are full enough that inserters will not load additional ingredients into them. This makes sense and allows for easy diagnoses for why your machines aren't running. A furnace's status on the other hand, doesn't report Output Full until you've manually overstuffed them such that they don't have space in their output inventory to put the results. This makes checking furnace status confusing when it's being fed by an inserter. The furnace says no ingredients, but the inserter won't load the ingredient.
The furnace above doesn't report that it's full even though the inserter believes it is. This furnace I overstuffed manually in order to get the Output Full status to show up.
Note that this came up in an accessibility mod that is reporting on machine statuses, so you can't just see the contents right next to the status.
