Splitter belt dragging upgrade
Dragging higher-level belts over a belt line auto-replaces any belts and underground belts you drag it over, but not splitters. It feels weird that splitters are excluded from this.

Re: Splitter belt dragging upgrade
Did they say why they did it this way in the FFF that showcased this?
There's got to be a reason, I just can't remember what it was.

Re: Splitter belt dragging upgrade
+1 ! That is most annoying when trying to upgrade belt-based bases.
And note: its not quite the same as using Upgrade Planner over the whole line (although that is a "somewhat feasible" workaround). Here an example, where I quick-drag on the arrow, but the two splitters did not get upgraded. If I would use upgrade planner, the left-going (unrelated) underground would get upgraded as well.

Make splitter auto upgrade like underground when dragging a different belt version
TL;DR
Make splitter auto upgrade like underground when dragging a different belt versionWhat?
I literally don't understand the limitation here. When one have a belt, and select a different level of belt, click, hold and drag over it, it will mark them to be changed to the version you are holding on your hand.In the process of dragging it, any underground belt of the same level also gets set to be changed, but splitters don't get affect by this.
Like, why? One would expect this to be the most straight forward as underground are. above screenshot, you can see that the line of red belt is being marked to be upgraded to turbo belts, even the underground that is after the splitter get marked, but it just ignores the splitter.
Why?
Just make it align with the mechanics that already works for belts and underground belts.Also make the game more enjoyable overall.

Re: Splitter belt dragging upgrade
Does anyone know why this was not release way back with 1.1 optimizations when all the fast replace and dragging was added?
That has to be something very challenging about it
