when an entity gets destroyed and a ghost is created, the ghost doesn't save what he was connected to by circuit wires.
if it was a combinator he already saves his configuration but it would be very nice if you could also fix the wire problem
thx

Thanks for the report however: yes they do.

Are you using any mods? If so, try disabling them and it will fix the issue.

I was a bit suprised when i tried this but he seems to be right.

Start a new game.
Enable cheat mode.
Place two substations. (or whatever)
Connect them with a circuit wire.
Shoot one of the substations.
Have it rebuild by robots.
-> The circuit wire is missing.

Edit1:
Ok. For the sake of double checking i removed all mods and now it actually works. Didn't think i had any mods that affect this....*sigh*. Will update when i find the culprint...

Edit2:
Looks like a bug in miniloader. Probably something in his on_wire_placed handler. Reporting to author...

Tried it, circuit wire was never missing. I tried destroying different substation, destroying both of them, connecting them with red wire, green wire, building more substations connected with a wire. Always worked.

See edit above. Looking for culprint...
