Items are not being destroyed per the setting. The weird thing is that it does not happen all the time. Prior to the update it was working AOK

Hi kurtzilla,

I'll take a look at that.

Hi kurtzilla,

I took a look at it. Unfortunately, I couldn't reproduce the problem you reported in my test environment. In my case, the inserters were always cleaned up and items that couldn't be put back were also deleted.

Can you please describe in more detail how and when the problem occurs for you? It would be best if you could tell me the steps to reproduce the problem. And what other mods are you using?

using cybersyn project for train mgmt
didn't have an issue until the latest version. I have a station(s) that provide 3 items. Each different item goes out on a belt that gets filtered by the cybersyn combinator. The loading inserters are filling up the cargo car and then, sometimes, they are left with an item in hand that does not get destroyed. That item is then loaded into the next car even if the request is for a different item.
My current fix was to load the previous version of the mod and everything is back to working as intended

and thank you for your attention to the matter! :)

Probably fixed in version 2.1.2. Please test.

didn't work and the console is being spammed

Oops, I forgot to disable the debugging functions before release. Thanks for pointing that out.

Please leave version 2.1.2 installed and continue playing despite the console messages until the problem occurs again. Then please send me the factorio-current.log file. The messages are also logged there, and I may be able to use them to figure out what is going wrong for you. I have reintegrated the old query into version 2.1.2. That should have fixed the problem.

You can also post the file in the forum under the thread for my post: https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?t=79205

Or send me the file via PM in the Factorio forum. My username there is picklock.

Thank you for your support and apologies for the inconvenience.
