[0.17.23] Can't Paste Onto Rotated Refinery

Post by Areckahn »

In the attached refinery screenshot, it's intuitive to try and paste the Basic Oil Processing recipe from the upper left refinery onto the lower left refinery.

Doing this however results in "Can't Mix Fluids", as the paste copies the refinery's rotation as well as its recipe, causing the upper oil pipe to try and connect to light oil and petroleum.

The attached assembler screenshot shows consistent beaviour for rotated assumblers with fluid input.

Whilst I acknowledge this behaviour seems intentional, almost all copy/paste of settings is on entities who's rotation doesn't matter for, which makes benig unable to paste the settings in these circumstances counterintuitive UX.
