Purple waste bin in a Smoke Stack blueprint

Issue description

Minor bug, but still ...

When you pay Unity, all purple waste bins disappear ... in all affected blue prints.
After that, they will not show up anymore. You have to reload a savegame to see it again.

At least Flare, small & large Smoke Stack are affected.

Expected behavior

I think we can agree, that never ever the (otherwise useful) purple waste bin may show up in a blueprint. As a blueprint can't have any production leftovers.

As a SW developer and tester I wonder what went wrong there ... esp. as the smoke stacks show the bin only on two recipes.

Reproduction steps

In the blueprint, I unset all recipes.

Game version

v0.4.12a

Can't reproduce this exactly but I noticed that turning off a recipe in the smoke stack doesn't stop the product from being brought in and constantly refills after clicking the Trash icon (which isn't disappearing for me)

I saw it on a blueprint/ghost, not a on a built one!
Just a ghost pipe was connected, definitely no products in there.
What you describe might be another issue. It should not accept more after turning off.

I don't seem to be able to reproduce this issue. When I place a smoke stack or a flare and unselect their recipes, I don't see the bin icon. Would you have a save file that reporoduces it or specific repro steps?

Hm, I can confirm it does not seem to occur on a new virgin map.

SmokeBin.save
But already on this attached save I see it. It even survives save/load.

Files not imported: SmokeBin.save

You have actually managed to find a fairly tricky case which is actually fairly important to fix. Will land in the next patch. Thanks!
