[2.0.28] inserter not detecting stationary belt items
Posted: Fri Dec 27, 2024 2:49 pm
there were quality items blended in. I was wrong
Concrete issue:
inserters are stuck in "Waiting for source items" when circuit conditions change the inserter from "disabled" to "enabled" and belt items are stationary.
moving the items "fixes the issue"
Inserter not seeing the items after conditions changing it from "disabled" to "enabled". The circuit logic is for the inserter to be "disabled" when the contents of the container it's inserting into is higher than the station average for that item. It was switched in this case due to bots removing items from the buffer chest it's inserting into
This is fixed by "refreshing" the contents of the belt:
Pure Conjecture as to cause:
A: I am dumb and this is due to me being dumb
B: bug in something to do with optimization where the inserter entity is being flagged with "nothing to pick up" instead of "disabled due to circuit logic" so when the inserter is enabled again it doesn't recheck if there is something to pick up.
