It seems like the deconstruction planner still treats curved rails as a separate entity from straight rail. I understand that they are actually separate entities in the game, but it seems like since you place curved rail by using straight rail that it would intuitively follow that when you put a piece of rail in the deconstruction planner as the filter, that you would want to also deconstruct curved rail too... A new player who isn't familiar with the old curved rail item wouldn't expect to have to explicitly say they want to *also* deconstruct "curved" rail, since that isn't even an item in the game, and why would you only want to deconstruct the straight bits and not the curved bits? I saw the other bug report about blueprint icons, but I don't think this is the same issue, and it just feels awkward that the only place in the entire game where you even have to think about curved rails as a separate "kind" of thing is when specifying deconstruction filters...
