Projector displays blueprint of subgrids but welds rotar heads

Been trying to work around projectors not projecting subgrids for awhile and am currently stumped with a unfixable delema. When I break apart my blue print and disconnect the rotar head I can save it as a blue print. When I display that blue print it appears with just the rotary and not the rotary head like it should. When you weld the main grid it automatically affixed a rotar head to the blue print that was not apart of the original blue print. This causes Collison issue when we align a blue print that has a rotar with no rotar head and a another with the rotar head attached. Currently haven't found a work around this as removing the rotar head from the original blue print causes the original blue print to be removed from the projector. Obvious fix would be make projectors project grid and subgrids or that blue prints saved are welded exactly as the blue print is saved, meaning if a rotar head is attached or a hindge head is attached that a full hinge is not created when welding the projection but only the hinge head.

I have worked around a similar issue. In my case i have a step in the automation that detaches the rotorheads then moves the welded subgrid into position to attach.


I think to be specific for the easyist fix is rotors, hinges and pistons when placed from a projection should retain their state when bluprinted. IE if the bluprinted rotor was detached it should not automaticly place a rotorhead when placed from a projection.


While we are at it can we get a attach head button for pistons.
