Blueprint Flip and Turn

by NovaM

Mirrors/Flips a blueprint in hand. WARNING: if you are using factorio 1.0 or factorio >= 0.18.37 then you must use the workaround below: - Grab the blueprint from the new blueprint interface - Drop it in the inventory to make a copy. (there is a row of buttons across the top one of has the letter C on it that is the copy button fot the print that is highlighted) - Grab that copy - The flip buttons work on this copy. This issue is not fixable for now, due to Factorio API limitation.

i [OPEN] Train stations

5 years ago

Hey, I would like to have the optional ability to flip the side of rail stations/signals to preserve train direction. Technically this isn't mirroring the entities, but functionally that's usually what you intend.
For example if I have a rail/station going north and then west, if I flip it horizontally I now expect it to go north then east. But due to the signals/stations mirroring it instead goes east then south. Same with vertical flip: east->north after vertical flip desired result = east->south, actual result = north->west.
Ideally there would be an option, that if when turned on, horizontal flip moves over all stations/signals on horizontal sections to the opposite side and vice versa.

I will try to fix this issue, ASAP (when I will be back, I'm currently on trip)

Any chance this is ever implemented, please?
