[1.0.3-rc3] Vortex stopped showing some input shapes icons

[left kestrel]

~~I was playing normally when I noticed there were missing shape icons in the vortex input, those are really usefull to preview if the shape is part of a current milestone or job

I tried removing them and putting them again but it didn't work~~

edit: disregard this, I erased a tube line of green paint and that broke the preview 🤦‍♂️

No shape predictions shown on HUB input belt ports
Done • Priority: Medium • Fix: 4 - Early Access • Resolution: Done

Shape Previews were not displaying on The Vortex Input Conveyor Belt ports. This feature previously worked but recently stopped showing predictions at the Input connections. The issue affected the quality of life feature that helps players see what shapes will be delivered. The bug has been fixed so that Belt port senders without matching receivers and those at The Vortex now properly display predictions again.

Vortex delivery preview not working due to multi-layer space building
Done • Priority: High • Fix: 1.0.0 Release • Game: 0.1.0-pre4 • Resolution: Done

Shape Previews for shapes delivered to The Vortex were not displaying correctly. The issue appeared to be triggered by building on multiple Machine Levels across different Space Platforms, though a consistent reproduction pattern was not identified. A savegame was provided. The bug could not be reproduced after a prediction refactoring in a later build, and the issue is now considered resolved.

No output shown when delivering shapes
Done • Priority: High • Fix: Dimension Update [0.1.0] • Game: 0.1.0 • Resolution: Done

No output preview is shown when delivering shapes to the Vortex. Shape Previews appear correctly when building Conveyor Belts near the Asteroid Miner, but they do not appear when shapes are being delivered to the Vortex. This can be reproduced by starting a new game in Regular mode, building any Asteroid Miner, and delivering shapes to the Vortex. The player receives no visual feedback about incoming deliveries. This issue was severe as it prevented players from seeing delivery predictions, a...

Belt filters are not showing previews
Done • Priority: High • Fix: 1.0.0 Release • Resolution: Done

Shape Previews disappear from Conveyor Belts when shapes pass through a Belt Filter. The issue does not occur with the Belt Reader or Overflow Splitter. It can be reproduced by placing any Conveyor Belt with shapes connected to a Belt Filter in any difficulty. The expected result is that Shape Previews remain visible after shapes pass through a Belt Filter. This was resolved as part of a prediction refactoring.

Prediction missing after painting
Done • Priority: High • Fix: 4 - Early Access • Resolution: Done

Shape Previews are missing after painting a part, potentially after paint goes through a Space Pipe. This issue was supposed to be fixed but has been verified as still occurring in version 23.1. The bug prevents players from seeing the predicted output shapes after the painting operation, which impacts the ability to plan and verify factory layouts. According to the discussion, the fix was not consistent and a separate bug report was created.

Preview shapes missing from unloader permanently when placed while shape preview is shown in space view
Done • Priority: Critical • Fix: 1.0.0 Release • Resolution: Done

Shape Previews were reported missing from Shape Wagon Unloaders when the unloader is deleted and rebuilt while the Shape Previews are visible in Space View at the boundary near Machine View. The issue occurs at a specific zoom level where structures can still be placed while previews are shown. Zooming into Machine View after rebuilding the unloader reveals the previews are absent, though they reappear if a structure is added or removed from the platform. This was ultimately determined to be ...
