Issues with product batcher conveyors

Hi guys, a couple of issues I’m having with the batcher conveyors (in conveyors(new) - any input greatly appreciated!

Firstly, when I open a file with batcher conveyors in, each time I have to manually move and then reconnect the downstream conveyors attached to the batcher conveyor, otherwise I get the error print “no conveyor connected downstream!”. I have to do this with each batcher conveyor, very annoying.

 

Secondly, the batchers are giving inconsistent spacing between my components in the batch - with random gaps appearing in the batches. This is more prevalent when running the conveyors at higher speeds. (It still happens with Space Utilisation disabled).

 

Thanks in advance!
