Super force building a belt across another belt incorrectly shows it curving

We are aware of them, but do not have solutions that don't cause other issues. They go here in order not to take space in the main bug thread list.

Super force building a belt across another belt incorrectly shows it curving

Post by dspyz »

ctrl+shift+click to super-force-build a belt orthogonal to another belt makes it look like it's curving off, even though it isn't when it's actually built.

This description isn't great but it's clear in the attached video

FWIW this still happens on 2.0.24. Definitely looks like a minor issue.

I am going to move this to minor issues. This is similar to 127761 - in order for the preview to be accurate, the build would need to predict precisely what will happen due to building including all consequences of other entities also built (here for example undergrounds being built causing belts to dissapear which would make placed belt to not change shape.
