belts not turning into launchers when dragging in a notch

[steel vortex]

expected behaviour is for it to not make belts but make a nice launcher line

yeah well that's the bug they are reporting, since belts do turn into launchers when you're only placing one

I don't consider it a annoying bug because I just do one launcher ata time instead of trying to do all at once.

Once it becomes a habit there is no going back

i see you selected normal conveyor but if you select launcher you can do what you want

How do people not understand

Thank you for your report @steel vortex !

This was an internal decision for allowing player expression of building belts over notches instead of always defaulting to launchers. To allow multiple building we left the ability to select the launchers specifically and hold to build.

We're open to looking into alternatives. Feel free to create a post or to upvote if there's already one created on the #1199773968438145134 channel.

I dont think i quite understand what you mean by player expression. Ofc the ability to drag belts over islands stays. However nothing but launcher can be placed in notches so intuitively seeing how one belt turns into a launcher it would only make sense dragging makes more launchers.
