Is it possible for other mods to define their own set of upgrade rules? For example additional types of belts, or different mining drills, whatever people want to mod really... This could take off like a rocket. Hm yeah, I think it should be possible. I just have to move list of upgrade definitions...

Thank you, that kind of workaround should work (in most cases :)), I'll try. Perhaps I should write about it in Modding Interface Requests subforum. EDIT: While experimenting, I found another workaround - position of input and output belts to ground is slightly different, i.e. input belt with direct...

Thank you. I think I will try with creating / altering ghost prototype. Did you report this behaviour in bugs section? I want to report it but I don't want to make a duplicate.

I'm trying to make a mod that would automatically find certain entities, mark them for deconstruction and place ghosts in their place.
