Unable to control directional tubes. #390

To change directional tube state, you have to hit its center. Which is near impossible in cramped setups due to both tiny size of the tube center's hitbox and disabled tube extensions' extents being always present in the world. I suggest to take the example from the best and only present extents when the extension is actually present. If extension is disabled, hit the central block's face to "pull it off" into the world. Increase hitbox of the tube core to 6x6x6 or even 8x8x8. Unify all tubing controls. Click with the wand… ok, gauntlet, to turn connection on/off. Crouch-click to alter the configuration of the connection without altering its state. For directional tubes, that means setting(toggling) preferred direction directly. (pun intended)

Crouch-click on the tube core to take tube away… yes I'm too used to "BC compatible wrench"…

Another consequence of a tiny tube center is complexity of building. Even if you sure aimed at the top of the tube, the part could be placed at the side, since you did not aim at the very center.
