If an inserter is not able to place items at the target then this mod prevents the Inserter to get stuck holding these items.
Features:
- Items will be put back to where they were picked up.
- You can enable to unlock locked chest slots to put items back even to chests that are normally stuffed.
- You can also enable to destroy items in the hand of an inserter if the inserter is not able to put the items back. If you don’t enable this function and the inserter could not put the items back the inserter will stay stuck with items in hand.
- With the inserter cleanup planner, you could select any inserter you want to be cleaned.
- If enabled the selected inserters will be cleaned up permanently.
- To visualize selected inserters, you can enable to mark them (this affects only inserters marked with the inserter cleanup planner).
- If enabled inserters around cargo wagons at train stations will be cleaned when the train leaves the train station. Therefore, the train hast to enter and leave the train stop in "automatic" mode (do not change to "manual" mode in between). The check will be done for the areas on both sides of every cargo wagon connected to the train. Cargo wagons which are not aligned horizontally or vertically will be skipped even if loading / unloading is possible.
