What did you do?

Dragging conveyor belts to have them auto-place underground belts when crossing another belt.

What happened?

Worked as expected when dragging into straight belts, but when dragging into corner belt it connected to it, rather than building underground belt across.

See this short video for the behavior.

What did you expect to happen?

I expected it to behave the same as dragging into a straight belt would. Though I guess I can see how this might be a "not a bug" situation, as there are cases where one would want to have them connect this way. Might be hard to do the logic for, but maybe the behavior could be conditional on where the dragging stops in this case somehow?

For bonus points, it was my 7-year old son who found this and found it unintuitive. He was excited to file a bug report about it .

I see after searching that this seems to be duplicate of this one: viewtopic.php?f=48&t=97432

Anyway, hopefully the fact that a 7 year old found the behavior unexpected is extra impetus for getting it fixed .
