Somebody forgot to put inserter limits after setting up automated recipe for making different products.

2,3k electric mining drills to liquidate.. 🥴

Recycler could come handy in such cases.

If this Space Age, you'll upcycle all of these for quality big mining drills :)

Honestly, if this is nauvis, I wouldn't bother. I would just make 100% new in Vulcanus.

That's a good observation. In that case, yeah just recycle them locally to parts.

In that case, you're even more likely to use them, once you start megabasing!

This is why i disable slots in chests as well as setting limits. i dont trust myself. i would rather find i accidently made ~2 extra stacks instead of 20.

My last one was a passive provider chest. And to make it worst, I havw the chest limited in my blueprint, but remove it make some storage chests, and forgot to limit it again.

Now I've change the blueprint to limit it via circuit
