About Burner Leech Fork v3

From Factorio Mod Portal

Burner Inserters can take fuel from any entity (ie. furnaces). Updated for Factorio 2.0 and Space Age. v3 adds mod settings, target caching, and fuel-type/stack-size aware transfers.

This mod is a fork of a fork originally Burner Leech by EnigmaticAussie (https://mods.factorio.com/mod/Burner-Leech), updated by LokiLaufeyjarson for Factorio 2.0/Space Age. This version allows you to select what kinds of inserters you can use, and mod settings to configure how you would like them to behave.

Fixed bugs related to the list of burners being dropped/forgotten, and added a debug command to fix that list if your save for some reason stops working. The command is: /burner-leech-fix

The reason I created and uploaded this mod is because the original one broke my save, and I needed to fix it, so my factory wasn't destined to crumble.

Original Description: "Burner leech, allows burner inserters to take fuel from furnaces and other stuff they normally couldn't. Also they can move fuel from a furnace to a furnace!

now with improved leeching abilities, inserters can now steal from other inserters!"
