rename "add fly condition" (to shattered planet) to "add abort condition"

logical understanding of "add fly condition" is that the platform will continue to fly, as long as the condition is true.
this is the opposite of how it works, that is to continue flying while the condition is false, and turn around when the condition becomes true.
therefore i suggest renaming the button to "add abort condition", or "add return condition", or "add turnaround condition", or something similar.
this problem is further exaggerated that the special functionality that is used only for shattered planet is not explained anywhere in the game, in the factoriopedia, or in the online wiki.
