Description

Quality of ~~life~~ lift patch that fixes lots of bugs with vertical mergers and splitters.

Fixes and improvements:

Mergers and splitters have new build modes that let you place their vertical versions without needing to snap to a lift first.

The top of lifts can now snap to existing vertical mergers and splitters, so you don't need to delete them and make new ones.

Other clients can now see the flow direction on vertical mergers and splitters when building around them. Previously they were only visible to the host.

Fixed various off-by-half errors. Now when you're building a merger or splitter on a lift, or building a lift from a merger or splitter, everything will properly snap to the 1m grid instead of being 0.5m off.

Fix for lifts disconnecting from floor holes when putting a vertical merger or splitter on them, which would completely break the flow of items.

Fix for lifts not getting removed when using mass-dismantle or dismantling blueprints that have vertical mergers and splitters.

Fix for spurious "must be built on a lift" placement errors when locking holograms in place.

Fix for spurious clipping warnings when snapping a lift to a vertical merger or splitter. Previously it would complain about clipping with the lift on the other side, which is obviously wrong.

Fix for lifts getting the wrong rotation after building on some clients.

Fix for lifts failing to snap to things if they're built in reverse mode and started from a wall hole or a conveyor pole.

Fix for lift connections breaking when deleting a vertical merger or splitter inside a blueprint designer.

This mod is vanilla-friendly, you can safely uninstall it and everything that you built will be exactly as it was.

Here's some of the Q&A reports that this resolves:

For Developers:

This mod automatically detects subclasses of AFGBuildableConveyorAttachment and finds their vertical version by checking their hologram overrides. If your buildable isn't getting the new features, but you think it should, then check the logs for LogVerticalLogisticsQoL; it should say why it's rejecting each buildable.

Frequently Asked Questions

Vertical Logistics QoL not working after update – what to do?

After a Satisfactory update, mods need to be updated. Check ficsit.app whether Vertical Logistics QoL has been updated for the new game version. With Mado Hosting: open the mod manager and click "Update All". If the mod hasn't been updated yet, temporarily remove it so the server starts.

Vertical Logistics QoL causing crashes in multiplayer – solution

Most common cause: all players must have exactly the same mod version installed. Check server logs for "ModMismatch" or "Version Conflict". Ensure all players use Vertical Logistics QoL v1.1.0 and the same SML. With Mado Hosting, Satisfactory servers run with 6 GB RAM for stable multiplayer performance.

Is Vertical Logistics QoL compatible with other Satisfactory mods?

Vertical Logistics QoL uses the Satisfactory Mod Loader (SML). Generally, SML-based mods are cross-compatible, but mods modifying the same game systems can cause conflicts. Test new mod combinations on a backup save. The Mado dashboard automatically detects known conflicts and warns you.
