[kovarex] [1.0.0] Unintuitive Belt Placement on Ghosts

Post by DerNickname01 »

I got a bunch of my friends into Factorio and on our first session on of them got confused over belt placement because of this:

Usually when you are placing Belts the green preview you get shows exactly how the belt will lok when it is placed down.
However when there is a ghost Belt below it, it will always show a straight belt as a preview.

This led to some confusion on his part, why he can't build a corner at that point.

Hello, thanks for the report.
The cause of this is actually the same as the cause of the belt preview not showing curve when fast replacing belts.

Fixed for 1.1
