I have a turret with Vault security keys (Hacking Card 2) recapturing my vaults, and an inserter (Stack size 1) linked to a chest of hacking card 2's placing them into the access console. Once the vault eventually times out, the turrets recapture it successfully, but the inserter no longer inserts cards into the console, with the inserter stating "Target full". The only way to fix this is to manually rotate the inserter then insert it back, or replace it manually.

What is the point of automating the second hacking card if you have to manually reset it each time the vault rebels and gets recaptured?

EDIT: Looking through the changelog there was a change regarding hack console placement. I am still on an older 2.0 version due to other mods needing to update. I do not know if that would fix this behavior.

If an inserter points to a tile where both vault and console are, it could be assigned to either of them since both are crafting machines that take some items as input. So yes, the change makes sure that the bottom half of the console never overlaps with the vault, and inserters pointing at the bottom half should not get confused anymore.
