I don't know if it is a bug or I am simply not understanding how the storage auto-pull works...
Basically, I have a small workshop area on my station. A simple setup with a capsule refinery, micro assembler and one of each of the factories. I have a storage chest and some extra cargo space attached and have the chest set to pull 500 of each of the capsules, mesh, composite, etc. I thought that the storage would maintain the 500 level if available in the main warehouse but it continues to try and pull 500 every tick.
I think I've seen a video where someone had a way of filling a chest "on demand" and then being able to empty it back into the main storage once finished with but I simply cannot find it again!
Anyway, is this supposed to happen and if so, can anyone suggest a workaround or point me to this elusive video? I seem to think it was on a large red space station but I may be wrong?
Thanks.
