Conveyor Frames?

[Mystra4]

Other than having to redo all of my cargo ships because of differences in door sizes, I like the update. Welders on ships are useful for building large projects (and solar panels!)

I know what most of the new parts do, but what exactly is a "Conveyor Frame" ?

I believe its just like the regular large conveyor for small ships, but it is way less shorter, its just 1 small ship block length instead of several

That might make sense - but then why didn't they add the 'connection lights' on the side of the thing? They did that for all the other transport blocks...

I think mainly because of the decreased size, could just be a placeholder though, just like the thrusters used to be

The medium cargo container for the small ship features BOTH small and big doors.
Conveyors come in TWO sizes for small ships:
a) same size as for big ships, that's the set with the conveyor frame
b) sized 1 small ship block, they are called small tubes

Thanks

I used them on my welding ship to get my tools just in the right spot around a large container, there very useful for moving larger blocks just a little bit further ahead instead of a whole block ahead.
