Inserter orientation should line up with belts by default

This is an extremely minor issue but it's been bothering me for a while. If you place some belts, then an inserter, then more belts, the inserter is facing the wrong way so it won't be able to transport items along the belt. You have to rotate the inserter to get it to line up. It would be nice if they would line up by default.

But would they default to putting stuff on the belt or removing from belt?

Yes... As a modder, I noticed that they're written backwards in code.

I'm not sure there's an easy way to fix this, because if you load a previous savegame, then all inserters will become backwards.

Well, that could be fixed - like the other changes.
