Scanned disposal outlets, and their directions. - Floorface - 11-25-2016
Hello, I was going to build a disposal ride that launches you into space and then catches you again.
However this ride would also launch you through the solar array, and I wanted to test whether or not the catwalk would slow you down.
Unfortunately, despite the disposal outlet CLEARLY facing upwards (as I had selected before soldering), it decided to fire me left and into space. I shortly ran out of air and died on the Z-level.
I believe what caused this bug was that the disposal outlet I originally scanned was facing right, it seems the scanner somehow stored this direction and 2 rotations before soldering caused the disposal outlet to think it is facing the leftwards position. Though as you can see from my attached image, it was not.
I should also note that the frames arrow was facing downward as normal when printed, and the visible direction of the disposal outlet accurately matches the frames direction after soldering. Its just that the effective direction does not.
