[Legacy] Conveyor Hinges - transfer items flexibly

This mod adds 3 blocks that are basically advanced rotors with different mounting points.

That means this mod is no longer necessary, I've briefly played around with the vanilla ones and they seem well made and dealt with the issues I've encountered with this (like attaching the other way around).
So this is now legacy, it will not be deleted but it will probably also not be updated, so convert to the vanilla ones :P

And for fans of the models:
Conveyor Hinges - model replacement for vanilla


- 3 hinges, 2 for small grid and 1 for large grid.
- Terminal access directly on the block.
- Tube animations when turning + tube ragdoll when top part is missing.
- Same torque, mass and components as vanilla rotors (resulting in same strength and behavior, last checked v1.194).
- Rotation direction and angle steps on the models that are also self-lit (emissive).
- Collisions are smaller than the full block to allow fitting in tight spaces.
- Contains construction models, LODs and paintable.

- PCU set to 100 for base and 1 for top (same as vanilla in v1.194).
- Lower and upper limit sliders are capped to -90 to 90 degrees.
- Attaching only allows the hinge tops to connect and checks for orientation too, otherwise clang happens (the orange stripes on one side determine the proper orientation).
- No "add small top part" button for large ones because the models don't visually fit, you can still connect them manually but I don't recommend it.
- No displacement.

Arindel - for suggesting grading and providing the raw grading image (in the old models)


Small Advanced Rotor


No, because of the scripts[gist.github.com]
And without the scripts it's pointless, hinges are vanilla and this would look bad without the script controlling the parts.
