Items on the belt are blacklisted from logistic network requests
belt "remembers" type of item which was/is on the belt
master switch disables requests if the new rocket is being built, this also prevents loading of previous requests, because rocket is in transit

one type of item per belt is expected
if two belts have same type of item, blacklisting will break for that item
