[1.0.3 rc3] [steamOS] output prediction isn't showing up when sending shape into the vortex

[summer oriole]

as you can see in the attached images, the output doesn't properly show the output shape but only on the center-most belts. this did not change after deleting and re-adding the belt launchers or when the job was marked as complete.
other images show the wrest of the production line in case that is part of the problem.
i will update this report if i notice anything else changes. (good job on the game, its become my favorite in the entire genre by far 👍)

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...

Shape preview (belts) is sometimes incorrect
Done • Priority: Low • Fix: 1.0.0 Release • Resolution: Done

Shape Previews on Conveyor Belts sometimes fail to update when the shape being transported changes. After reconfiguring a producer from one shape to another, some belts continued displaying the old shape preview indefinitely, even after extended wait times. The issue appears related to Belt Launchers not triggering a preview refresh, and it is reproducible with any Belt Launcher, not just those delivering to The Vortex. Hovering over the affected Belt Launcher tile with another machine forces...

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.

Predictions at wrong position when launching shapes into the vortex
Done • Priority: High • Fix: 1.0.0 Release • Resolution: Fix Verified

Shape Previews are displayed at the wrong position when launching shapes into The Vortex via a Belt Launcher. Instead of appearing after the Belt Launcher, the previews show up at an incorrect location. This is particularly important because it occurs early in the Certification, making the game appear buggy within the first few minutes of play. The fix involved adding belt port sender and receiver connectors to provide missing directional data and creating a new simulation for the blocked sen...

New predictions are missing for belt launchers if the exit point of notches if a platform is connected to something else
Done • Priority: High • Fix: 1.0.0 Release • Resolution: Missing Feature

Shape Previews are not displayed for Belt Launchers at the Output of Notches on a Machine Platform when those Notches are connected to something else, such as other Machine Platforms or Space Belts. This was observed in Classic Mode on the Regular scenario. The expected behavior is that Shape Previews should appear on all Notches where Belt Launchers are placed, regardless of connections. However, the current system intentionally does not render previews on connected Outputs, and the team has...

Predictions are shown on the first belt launcher built in any platform
Done • Priority: High • Fix: Dimension Update [0.1.0] • Resolution: Done

Shape Previews are incorrectly shown on the first Belt Launcher built on any Space Platform instead of appearing at the correct location along the delivery line to The Vortex. This occurs when a Belt Launcher is placed anywhere in a delivery line from a Mini-Miner to The Vortex. The issue causes the predictions to follow the first Belt Launcher constructed rather than displaying at the intended positions on the delivery path. This is a visual bug that does not affect gameplay functionality bu...

Seems like it at first sight Loupau!

Thank you for your report namdoog! Could you confirm if replacing the spacer wagons with any other wagons fixes this issue?
