[2.0.62] Belt turn places belt in wrong direction after dragging backwards

Post by lisekilis »

When using the new belt placing feature introduced in 2.0.62
When dragging belts, going forward and back will remove the extra belts built.
If you go back beyond the point you started drag placing, then go forwards again and use smart placing to make a turn the belts will be backwards

Given that this bug report describes an artifact of a smart belt building introduced in 2.0.61 that is going to be reverted in 2.0.66, this bug report is essentially a "fixed for 2.0.66" (as this behavior does not happen here) and "wont fix" (as there were no fixes directly resolving this issue) at the same time. I do not know how to proceed with this. Lets say it is fixed for 2.0.66 based on the fact that this behavior will not happen there. Also i made a test to make sure this is not reintroduced again in the future (unless someone removes a test).

Thank you for replying to my bug report.
It's always sad to see qol features be canceled but the community has spoken.

I understand it must feel wierd leaving a bug like this. I think the best description for it would be "Left in a Quantum state".
