[2.0.28] Can place entities on tiles occupied by 45 deg rotated railgun

[Bohun]

It is possible to place entities - in my case lamps - on some spots that are supposedly occupied by a rotated railgun. Obviously, these spaces are supposed to be occupied by the railgun. There are two lamps that can be placed - one in yellow brackets and the other to the upper right behind the barrel.

Welcome to the forum, and thank you for the report.

Other entities for which this applies: inserters and electric poles.

It may be fine, as increasing railgun's collision box could exacerbate 121660 Railgun is shooting other Railsguns; and increasing lamp's box could make squeaking between a lamp and other entities (e.g. an accumulator) impossible.

Thanks for the report however I don't believe we will be changing either of these entities bounding boxes. If it bothers you, simply don't build things there.
