Mergeless Conveyor Tubes

Description
This is my first mod for Space Enginners.

I found out the hard way that conveyor tubes, when used with merge blocks, keep the ship merged to the whatever it was merged with, even after the merge block is turned off. So I found out how to make it not merge and here we are!

This mod adds 3 copies of the existing conveyor tubes and conveyor frame for small ships called

Mergeless Conveyor Tube (for large ships/stations)
Mergeless Conveyor Tube Small (for small ships)
Mergeless Conveyor Frame (for small ships to large ships/stations

The cubeblocks.sbc is also commented to show how/why I did what I did

(for small ships to large ships/stations)
But... you can't do that

Tested large ship to large station, and that still seems to work fine, allowing for relatively easy transfer of oxygen/hydrogen from a production station. Not tested anything involving small grids though.
(If done from a large grid station, remember to convert back to a ship AFTER unmerging from station)

aluxesxd, making the comment; "This is a stupid mod." does nothing to help the situation and might make people think that you believe that your opinion is the only one that matters.

yes. you can get the some function using vanilla blocks.... that wasn't the point of the mod. This mod was to facilitate a functional aesthetic. To take the function of the two connectors and allow for something that looks aesthetically pleasing.

so instead of ragging on something you find dumb or don't like...just don't make a comment and move on. "verbalizing" something negative in the way you did doesn't help the situation...might make it worse. i.e, the modders saying "piss off" and quit modding SE.

This mod does still work, i just tested it. however there are still problems with the small tubes but that's because of a problem with the base game not this mod.

Mount point on the small tube is broken.

@Devil....whats causeing the dmg is the merging of the 2 parts, and unless Keen Fine-tunes their collision meshs....not much can be done

Since they actually do merge, why the hell are they called "Mergeless"?
