Inserter placing items on belt

Ideas that are too old (too many things have changed since) and ones which won't be implemented for certain reasons or if there are obviously better suggestions.

Inserter placing items on belt

Post by Terra_Incognito »

It seems like a simple idea but how about when you build an inserter you can click on it like a smart inserter (although this would apply to all inserters) and it would give you the option of which side of the belt you want to insert on, or even potentially if you want the inserter to pick up from the left/right side of it. This would give the inserter much more flexibility and more realistic options for factory creation.
