Better UX for machines control logic unit item eject behavior #337

Open S-S-X opened 11 months ago

This should be improved one way or another.

The machine that contains the control logic unit, ejects items in a way that is unnecessarily hard to understand at first.

It is a problem for the construction of pipeworks tube systems, which fail when the side from which the items are ejected is reversed.

Original issue got closed but contains some information, suggestions for improvement and some info about related issues:

I think the best solution would be to allow players to choose the auto-eject side with a button, and have the default be the currently used direction so nothing breaks.
