FAQ

Why don’t requests update automatically when recipes change or are removed?

The mod prioritizes simplicity and performance. It does not continuously monitor recipe changes or dynamically update chest requests to avoid unnecessary complexity. This design keeps the mod efficient and lightweight.

To clear or refresh requests, use the Refresh Selected Logistic Chest or Refresh All Logistic Chests shortcuts.

How do I update or clear requests when recipes change or are removed?

When you change or remove a recipe from a crafting machine, existing requests for its components will remain until manually refreshed. To update or clear these requests:

  • Use Refresh Selected Logistic Chest to update a specific chest.
  • Use Refresh All Logistic Chests to refresh your entire setup.

Why do Ingredient or Product Integrations not work?

If your Ingredient or Product Integrations don’t behave as expected, ensure that:

  1. You’ve used the correct format described in the Integration Format section of the mod description.
  2. Remember to separate entities with semicolons (;) and items with commas (,), and use the optional :quality specifier if needed.
  3. The entity names and item names match the in-game definitions exactly, including case sensitivity.
  4. If specifying quality, you’ve used a valid quality level (e.g., epic, legendary, ...) or verified that it defaults to normal if omitted.

Refer to the Integration Format section in the mod description for full details and examples.

Can this mod handle dynamic setups?

This mod works best for static setups like malls or predefined blueprints. It is designed to provide initial configuration and manual adjustments rather than continuously adapting to changes in dynamic environments.

If you use the mod in dynamic setups, you will need to manually refresh chests when changes occur. Full automation for such setups is outside the mod's scope, as it focuses on maintaining simplicity and performance.

What’s the difference between static and dynamic setups?

  • Static Setups: These are stable configurations, such as preplanned blueprints or mall designs, where recipes and layouts don’t frequently change. The mod is optimized for these cases, requiring minimal interaction after the initial setup.
  • Dynamic Setups: These are setups where machines, recipes, or logistics are frequently altered. While the mod can be used in such scenarios, manual refreshes are required for updates.
