Please add support for Krastorio 2 (5 levels of Miniloader).
There are currently only 3 levels available.

Miniloaders redux work fine in Krastorio 2 now, and have reasonable recipes. Thank you for this.

There's a very minor cosmetic issue. If you copy settings from a miniloader that is loading to a miniloader that is unloading, or the other way, using the Paste entity settings binding (normally Shift + Left-click), then you get a flying text saying “Drop near” or “Drop far”. Krastorio 2 allows you to configure which lane of a belt an inserter outputs to. Whenever you change this setting on an individual inserter, it displays such flying text. However, this setting does not apply to miniloaders, so the flying text is redundant.

Ideally it would be nice if you could easily copy settings between Krastorio 2 loaders and miniloaders, or even upgrade them in place with an upgrade planner, but this is probably too difficult to implement. I decided to replace all Krastorio 2 loaders with miniloaders on the map, and this involved reconfiguring each loader manually. But that's what I get for not planning ahead.

Update: I forgot to give the version numbers. I'm using Factorio 2.0.77, https://mods.factorio.com/mod/Krastorio2 2 2.0.19, https://mods.factorio.com/mod/ChangeInserterDropLane 1.2.0, https://mods.factorio.com/mod/miniloader-redux 1.2.0.
