Conveyor in container object does not work correctly.

Hi,

When you have a conveyor that is inside a container setting the size or location does not work correctly. Take for example a plane or a BasicFr and put a conveyor inside of this container object.
Set the location of the container on a z height not equal to 0 (so for example 1). Now try to change the location of the conveyor. If you for example change the x location of the conveyor also the z location is changed. For the z location the z height of the container object is added to the z height of the conveyor. So, each change in the start location of the conveyor will change the z height of the conveyor to get even higher.

Could this bug be fixed for the next bug fix release? And is there something we can change in the properties panel as a work around for now?

Thank you for your time.

Patrick

Yeah, this looks like a bug. Thanks for pointing it out. I'll add it to the dev list.

If you need a workaround, set the container to z height 0 before editing the conveyors inside.
