[0.18.30] .teleport() does nothing on belts

Post by thesixthroc »

Trivially easy to reproduce, e.g. with .teleport(2,0).

This is also the case for splitters and undergrounds.

Is it possible to add this to complete the functionality to teleport all entities in an area...?

No. Each class of entities that cannot be teleported has different reason for why it cannot be teleported. FYI as for 0.18.30, things that cannot be teleported:
- transport belt, spliters, underground belts
- rails
- locomotives, cargo wagons, fluid wagons etc
- character while in vehicle (however some vehicles like cars can be teleported even when player is inside)
- pipes of a fluid system that has blocked undergrounds

(this list covers only 0.18.30, may change and will not be updated here)
