When loading vanilla puzzle files, the game will process the inputs and outputs. If it comes across an output that contains the repeat atom, it will expand the molecule into its Sim form, where:
the repeat atom is removed
the monomer is expanded into 6 copies to form the polymer
a no-name atom (with byte ID 0 and the same graphics as the repeat atom) is added to the end of the molecule
When modded puzzle files are loaded, outputs with a repeat atom seem to be left unprocessed. They act like standard outputs in the Sim, but will crash the game if an atom is placed above one of its hexes:
