Limit Request Chest Copy
A lightweight Factorio mod that caps item requests when you copy settings into logistic requester chests.
Features
- Configurable Multiplier
Set a per‑user “Stack Size Multiplier” so each request is limited tostack_size × multiplier
. - Zero Performance Overhead
Only hooks theon_entity_settings_pasted
event and iterates existing slots. - Multiplayer Friendly
Each player can choose their own cap, preventing accidental overstocking on shared servers.
Why Use It?

folder into yourmods/
