Tell the player why items can't move across inventories

Hi,

When you move an item to a different inventory fails, there's no indication of why. There's a number of different reasons it could fail:

You are trying to move to your inventory, but your not a a conveyor port
There isn't a conveyor path to the destination
The conveyor path between them is too small
The destination doesn't support that type of item
The destination is full
The player missed the drag target or otherwise misused the UI

I, as a noob, spent a bit thinking I didn't understand the UI, then spent a while trying to figure out where the path was broken, when I was actually trying to move items across a small conveyor port.

It would make the game more user friendly if there was a small message that informed the player why there action failed. Hopefully it wouldn't be a large change.

Thanks
