Items going the wrong way through Sorters when using Alt+MMB

Note : this is clearly a duplicate of this report but since it's tagged as outdated, I publish the issue again here.

The setup is simple, two Containers separated by one Sorter (and a battery for the sorter to work):0724b0975673201f175a0624cc967527


The Sorter configuration is the default one, an empty blacklist:

ce72afc034d3e9ce06fb830a28aa3c52

Inventories are set as follow:

f20749cc54176eba71609bfba6e122b2

Containers and Sorter just have enough room left for 37 Steel Plates each. I try to deposit 200.

When I deposit them using the button in the menu, it works as intended:

The Sorter blocked the way to the red Container, as it should.

Now if I get back all the plates and try to deposit them using Alt+MMB, here's what happens:

fd26dcccf4f5852f24a0fa4128575f4f

Plates were distributed all the way through, seemingly going the wrong way through the Sorter.

Now, if I get all the Plates back and try to deposit them via the red Container, everything works as intended when I use the menu:

a3db3caf5494b13e57b6ad159ea9b9e1

But if I get them back and deposit them using Alt+MMB...

Now it could not go through the Sorter, although it should have.

Testing done in Creative mode under game version "1.203.024 b0 default", no mod, Vanilla game (Experimental mode turned off).

Just found out that if you set the sorter to "whitelist" mode and use Alt+MMB on the green Container, it does not deposit in the red Container, just the green one and the Sorter:

Hello Efshapo,


Thank you for the detailed report. I was able to reproduce the issue and I reported it into our internal system.

Having a related behaviour: marked as duplicate

  • The behaviour does not to be related to the amount of items in the player or container inventories.
  • The behaviour does not occur if the blocks are placed in creative (Version 1.203.603 b0).

Yeah, I noticed the bug in a big spaceship I had made in Survival. I then spent some time in Creative trying to reproduce with the smallest amount of parts (for easy reproduction) so I ended up ditching the containers. Let's hope fixing sorters will also fix strange behaviors in bigger constructions.

I was about to report this myself until I saw this report, can confirm it's still an issue in the latest contact update hotfix (turbine fix).


looks to be an issue with alt+middle mouse?
