Multiplayer: Connector tool shares pairing for all players

[DevonFrosch]

Hi,

we noticed on our server, that players share the pairing information of the connector tool. In other words:

• Player 1 places a signal controller
• Player 2 places a signal
• Player 1 uses the connector tool on the signal controller
• Player 2 uses the connector tool on the signal
• The signal is now connected to the signal controller

We use release 1.3.3 for forge 1.12.2, we had the same behaviour on prerelease of 1.0 already.

This is great, if only one person on a server builds signal boxes (or two build them together), but on our sever, we already had multiple occasions of people "stealing" each others connections. As you can't really check connections after the fact, it is quite hard to verify that your connections are correct. It was mainly obvious because one used H/V signals and the other one tram signals.

Is there a possibility to store the connection data per player? I think two player colaborating to connect signals is going to be rather the rare occasion.

Thanks,

As I just used this bug/feature together with someone else, maybe it would be an idea to have a separate Collaborative Connector Tool with the current behaviour as well. It's quite fast if you have one player in the signal box with the signal controllers and another player out in the field with the signals :D
