Combinator can display the icons on the wrong side in alt mode

Post by dtjordan »

When "Show combinator settings in '"Alt-mode'"" is enabled, the input/output icons can be on the wrong side depending on the rotation of the combinator.
You can see the attached pictures, the first is the visual where it looks like "I" should be the input and "each" the output, but the machine config is reverse where "each" is the input and "I" is the output. Seems to happen when a combinator is facing north.

Thanks for the report however the icons are not ordered by input vs output and simply order by the merged signal overall ordering.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.
