[2.0.72] Blueprints drop from the looped recycler

Post by MRX8024 »

-What did you do?
Putting the blueprint book in the recycler pair that is directed towards each other (looped recycling).

-What happened?
All blueprints that are in the book fall out of the recycler and are placed on the tile.

-What did you expect to happen instead? It might be obvious to you, but do it anyway!
I think bps should continue to be destroyed in a cycle.

-Does it happen always, once, or sometimes?
Always.

I'm not sure if this is a bug.

Thanks.

Thanks for the report however this is working as intended. A crafting machine does not have storage for all the individual blueprints in a given book and so when it consumes the book to craft it ejects the blueprints/items in it onto the ground.

If that's not what you want, simply right click on the book and click the delete button.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.
