I mean, I know Update 8 ruined everything it touched and some things it didn’t, but…I seem to remember being able to connect conveyor lifts directly between machines and splitters. I also seem to remember being able to reverse the direction of conveyor lifts while placing them. Neither of those seem to work anymore.
I think I’m giving up until they’ve got the SMART mod working in 1.0. Playing this game without the SMART mod feels like playing in a sandbox, but every ten minutes you have to stop and count all the sand.
All of that still works for me. Snapping is fine. And you can swap input/output direction when placing a conveyor lift by pressing R.
