Altering counts on copy from assembling machine to chest

Post by Martc »

Is there way how can I change default item count that is requesting chest, when you copy blueprint from assembling machine to requester chest?
Something like default_request_amount, or some event that can used to alter requester slots.

requester_paste_multiplier in the recipe definition. The default is 2 - change it to what you want :)

add "requester_paste_multiplier = #" to the recipe definition you want to have a higher count. Where # is the recipe counts * # the chest will get.

It's not that painful.

Code: Select all

for _, v in pairs(data.raw.recipe) do
        v.requester_paste_multiplier = 10
end
