Bug: lock slots on cargo wagon then view wagon inventory will cause items to spill to ground and break wagon icons (caused by Auto Sort Chests)

[TheBloke]

Game version: 0.17.17 Mod: Picker Inventory Tools 1.0.0 + dependencies

Steps:

• Mod Settings->Automatically Sort Chests enabled
• Place some random items in a cargo wagon inventory
• Lock the slots using the red X, as seen here:
• Close & re-open the wagon UI
• All contents spills to ground and the wagon now shows as empty, but the icons on the wagon still show as if it had contents:

This does not happen with chests, only cargo wagons.

Disabling Automatically Sort Chests will prevent the problem from happening.

Discovered in my normal save, then re-created in a save containing only Inventory Tools plus its dependencies.

Let me know if I can provide any further info, and thanks for all your great work on Picker*!

Further info: problem is caused by "Automatically sort chests". Disabling this feature in Mod Settings prevents the problem.

I suppose it's also possible the bug is not in Picker Inventory Tools but in the game itself. But I don't yet know enough about modding the game to know how to confirm that. I thought I should raise it to you first given I have only experienced the issue with the mod and not in vanilla.

OK I've done a bit more digging and I do now think this must be a bug in the base game.

I can re-create it in a non-modded game by opening a cargo wagon where all slots are locked and then typing the following at console:

/c local inventory = game.player.opened.get_inventory(defines.inventory.cargo_wagon) ; inventory.sort_and_merge()

I am going to close this issue and raise it on the forum. Sorry to trouble you!
