Recycler signal below building for recyclers #90

The recycler signal is outside of the actual building and it blocks building anything else over it. Screenshot 2024-11-16 225611 Screenshot 2024-11-16 225627

That's really weird on two fronts:

  1. The position of the signal is calculated the same way for all entities, based on each entity's coordinates. This would imply that the recycler has coordinates offset from its bounding box, differing from all other entities. This would be fixable by handling recyclers as a special case.
  2. The signals, even when manually placed offset from their host entity, do not collide with belts. I have no explanation for why this would occur.

I can't debug this issue myself until I get enough time in my life to buy the expansion. If I had to take a guess at a workaround, I would say: temporarily disable bottleneck signals (Shift+Alt+L) while building.
