[Kovarex] [2.0.34] Smart belt dragging over belt curve fails

Post by Xoriun »

I have come across some more smart belt bugs.

Since there are currently quite some bugs reports concerning smart belts, I was wondering what is currently the best way I should report those bugs:
- file one new report with all "new" bugs I can find (like I did here)
- file a new report for each different bug (that would mean 5 reports instead of this one)
- append to existing reports (like the 2 I mentioned in this report)
I would be glad to know what helps you the most!

Now to the actual report:
In each picture, the top row is the layout of belts before I drag a belt between the loaders.
I then copied this setup four more times and dragged a belt in the height of the loader. Each time, I would expect one continuous new belt (with undergrounds where necessary) while all belts placed before remain the same. A working example of this can be seen in Case 1, last row.
Each of those rows has a different orientation and direction of the belt drag. The orientation of the belt is the same as the orientation of the loader in the row and I start the drag next to the loader. That means:
The first row is after I dragged right-facing belt from left to right.
The second row is after I dragged right-facing belt from right to left.
The third row is after I dragged left-facing belt from right to left.
The fourth row is after I dragged left-facing belt from left to right.

The save file is attached.

FYI, at the end of the fix video, Kovarex, you test the left column of case 5, but that works before in row 2 and 3 to begin with. The middle and right columns are where rows 2 and 3 show broken behavior.

From what I've seen the general preference is one bug per report.

(Obviously that requires a bit of discretion regarding what are different instances of the same bug vs different bugs. Here, I would call cases 1 and 2 the same bug; the others are more ambiguous.)
There are 10 types of people: those who get this joke and those who don't.
