b [Fixed] Error with buffer/requester chests

6 months ago

I'm attempting to use this mod in an attempt to fix my destroyed UPS. I'm getting this error whenever I try to use it on any size Buffer or Requester chests. I'm using the AAI mod. I tested all of the other variations of the steel/logistics storage and it worked every time.

The mod Big Containers UPS+ (1.0.5) caused a non-recoverable error.
Please report this error to the mod author.

Hey ganster47, thanks for reporting! (and for testing the other container types <3)

This error actually makes sense, the way that logistics requests works was changed when 2.0 came around. I had to fix something related to that in a different mod, kind of surprised this one didn't have any reported error until now.

Will fix shortly!

Hey there, appreciate the quick response and for making this mod. I'm hoping it will mostly solve my destroyed UPS in a somewhat easy to adjust way considering I'm hundreds of hours in to my SA save.

I'll hold off until you're able to fix. Thanks again.

I just ran in to another error and figured I'd share in case you want this one as well when you're working on the other fix.

I disabled the Spill Excess Items setting and then used the selection on a full Passive Provider Chest and it gave the error below. (edit - I reenabled the Spill setting and then tried again and it still gave the same error.)

Hey there, seems like everything is working for me EXCEPT the setting for "Spill Excess Items" in the Map settings. I've tried unchecking this option but it's still spilling the chest contents. Thanks again for the help with this.

It sounds like you were testing things out in editor mode with time paused. When time is paused, changed settings are not actually applied

Hmmmm i definitely wasn't in editor mode at all today. But I think I was doing it from the map view. But now I'm unable to replicate and it appears to be fine. I'm trying to figure out what I did. Sorry to waste your time on a false alarm. If I figure out what else may be causing the spill I'll report back.
