- Reproduction Steps I've played from early spring to early summer now, and somehow the autochest just stops working every so often. The only temporary fix I can do is go to architect mode > move the autochest elsewhere > move it back again to the initial place. It worked for several minutes, then it stopped working again after, and then I had to go to architect mode again.

#Auto chest stopped working
1 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
My autochest is working on some things (e.g cheese press/mayonnaise makers as a conveyer belt) but not others (oil maker as an isolated chest). Here steam deck
Okay did a little experiment - isolated chests didn't work with multiple items but the conveyer belt/placing them together does work with the same items
I'm the opposite, the ones that break down most often are cheese press/mayonnaise makers 😦
I had to clear out the chests and replace them. I had this issue with the auto chests with furnaces and recycling machines (separately)
by replacing them, do you mean you make another auto chest then? and not use the broken one?
I break it with a pickaxe/axe and then place it back down in the same spot. It's the same chest
I see! I'll give it a try then
I've tried this but it didn't work... 
Mine is doing this too, it will collect but not replenish. Only thing that will make it replenish is removing everything, picking the chest up, and placing it back in the same space.
I’ve been curious about this and I think it started also working again when I put enough to completely fill all the things connected up to it. It was still a little funky when I tried it but I haven’t been able to try it out again for a while
Doesn't work for me either - worked perfectly before the latest big update. Same thing, breaking it and replacing works, but at this point I might as well manually put things in as it happens every few minutes.
