Summary0004507: Jugs spill contents if reaction tells it to hold more than one item
DescriptionI am trying to make a set of reactions that allows ores to be ground up into powders, and stored into jugs for use as a glazing material.

Unfortunately, jugs are just not cooperative.

They will only accept a single powder, then spill all the rest. The size of a powder is nowhere near the container's apparent capacity, which leads me to believe the jugs are just hard-coded to only accept one item. (Especially since increasing the capacity of the jug did not appear to have an impact.)

While bags are capable of accomplishing this exact same task properly, I would prefer to be able to use jugs for this task.
Steps To ReproduceI have a save with the problem in action right here:

(Try not to track too much zinc powder...)

Actually, a correction - I had too many versions of the same files from different folders open in notepad++, and hadn't actually tested the right change to the raws (updated the wrong savegame's raws)...

While changing the "PRODUCT_DIMENSION" of the powders has no apparent impact, altering the "CONTAINER_CAPACITY" to be 100,000 actually does make this reaction work as expected.

Apparently, "CONTAINER_CAPACITY" means one item, regardless of size, per 10,000 capacity.

So yes, I guess this is an "expected" effect.
