What I noticed today: before update 4.2 I started building a pipe and then maybe clicked for a turn or changed height, but then I used 'R' and 'F' to turn off toggling and stuff, but the beginning stayed. Today, I started the same way, but independently how far or how many segments of the pipe, as soon as I use 'R' and 'F' the beginning of the pipe disconnected from the storage.
I made an in-game video of the behaviour. Did it behave like this in the past? I don't think so. Thanks for checking.
I have reproduced it with belts too. Examples:
It is very error prone that users have to go back and check every ghost belt and pipe that they didn't self disconnect on the other end.
That's a really nasty bug. Imagine creating a pipe/belt in the middle of some blueprint where it's hard to see what's going on? They would magically self-disconnect and the entire BP goes to hell.
I'm not 100%, if this is merely related or a regression of
