BeeSink & Multiple Indexers: No Connection to 2nd & ^

I noticed an issue with the indexer and BeeSink as well...

UPDATE: I noticed that this only happens when there isn't a bee in the indexer... As soon as you add one bee to the indexer the BeeSink connects and works.

Setup:
I was trying to setup 1 indexer for princesses and queens, a 2nd indexer for purebreds, and a third indexer for the remaining bees.

The 1st indexer connects and can even be sent bees, but when I placed the 2nd and 3rd indexers the BeeSinks wouldn't connect (Screenshot below). I moved the setup to the center of my area and the BeeSink wouldn't connect to any face of the indexer (either by moving the BeeSink & piping from one side to another or moving the indexer).

Do other BC pipes connect to the indexers?

commented

The indexer piping connection works as long as a bee has been (manually) placed in the indexers' inventory. After the bee has been added it can be removed (leaving the indexer empty) and the piping will continue to work.

I don't remember any issues with vanilla BC pipes but will have to check when I get off work.

Ok, See attached screenshots... If the indexer is placed and piped before a bee is inserted no pipes connect, after a bee has been placed in the inventory (even for a second) any pipe BC/LP will connect.

If BC pipes also don't connect then I suspect it's a problem with the Indexer. I think that for some reason it says it has an Inventory Size of 0 when there is no item inside the indexer itself.

try update to newset verison to see if the bug have been fixed

@SinusoidalC - Aye Aye!

As of LogisticsPipes 0.7.4.dev.205 for mc 1.6.4 BeeSinks still will not connect to an empty indexer. Connection completes when any bee is added to the indexer manually.
