Hey All.

So i have been playing Factorio for some time now. I have watched a lot of videos. I am having issue with moving belt and replacing or inserting a splitter. I have to right click to remove the belt, the place the spitter. is ther a better way to do this. Have look at this video. https://youtu.be/V4ogYb5VdZg the 44-50 sec mark he replaces the belt with under ground, and it looks to me as is just single clicking.

Thank you for reading.

Normally for belts, splitters, etc, you just have to place the new one over the old one... even factories can upgrade in-place.

There are mods that can do it in an orgnaized manner so you can upgrade sections at a time.

Upgrade Builder and Planner 1.3 (supports replacing rails)
Or Upgrade Builder and Planner (uses a better interface)

Listen to his mouse clicks and you can hear two clicks. He's removing and then placing. The removal is very quick due to mods though. No, there's no easier way that I can think of.
