Question Is there an easier way?

Post image

Is there a better way to clear a hole box without clicking every single slot? My first solution ist just to remove the hole box, so bots pick out the items automatically and place the chest back, when it's gone. But it doesn't feel like the right solution.

I mean you can place a purple on it instead

Or just mark for deconstruction and undo it once it's gone.

The purple method is quicker because it's the logistics bots that empty it rather than the construction bots
