The History section of the article currently states:

0.16.21: Requesters requesting from buffer chests (which includes players) have higher priority than other requesters.

This is not true. Requesters requesting from active provider chests have the highest priority. I'd fix it myself, but I don't know what it's supposed to say. My best guess is it's supposed to say that different pick-up priorities were added to the various types of chest, but it could also mean that there already were priorities, but they were reordered. Either way, this needs to be fixed by someone who has a better source. --Runamucker (talk) 04:22, 14 March 2022 (UTC)

The history section is correct, requester chests with the "request from buffer chests" option checked have a higher priority for getting their requests fulfilled than requester chests without that option checked (or for example buffer chests). It is not about the pick-up priority of the item that is being requested. The first note here may make this more clear. Furthermore, even if it was somewhat confusing, the line is directly from the changelog and should not be changed. -- Bilka (talk) - Admin 15:33, 24 March 2022 (UTC)
