Hey,we know for what are used insertors,they move items which are behind to the front but how about an insertor which moves the item which is behind to the right or left?

You are aware that it is possible to rotate an inserter, so that it moves things horzontally instead of vertically? Or are you talking about moving an item from one side of a belt to the other side?

it would take a large part of the puzzle aspect out of the game. it's been suggested before.
Bob's Adjustable Inserters mod will do what your asking.

Ah, sorry, yes, I didn't read your post properly.

You can already do this with Bob's Mods. The name of the mod is Bob's Adjustable Inserters. I believe there are also other mods which can do that.

EDIT: it seems that impetus maximus managed to post a few seconds before me. :)

This will not be implemented cause it is possible to mod this since version 0.6 or so and not implemented yet, even if that would be a super-simple change.

A lot of mods use such inserters (also known as edge-, 90-degree- and others).
