[2.0.24] chain rolling stock connections through BPs broken

Post by Icicubes »

I cant recreate my 1.1 Blueprint anymore in 2.0. Was this a bug that got fixed in 2.0 or is it a bug that this feature got broken?
The still functional 1.1 Blueprint.

In 2.0, rolling stock placed by blueprints now connects only to entities that were placed in the same blueprint. This makes sense that placing multiple copies of the blueprint would result in multiple separated groups of wagons.

Luckily you can still remote drive the train and manually couple the groups together, but it's not the same as in 1.1.

It has caused me some trouble with mods as well. AFAIK the ghost connections are not readable through the mod API either.

So its just remove "stock_connections" from the json of the Blueprint to get this feature back. Maybe you could add another checkbox for that.
