Tester information (Internal use only)

It undocks 1 block too soon (using the correct orientation of the block it was on). It's the block right before a direction change, but it should be the block right after it sees a direction change.

Part of this is intended. A shoot out rail will undock if it encounters any direction change. This is to prevent it from being used in closed rail circuits.

It does seem like it uses the wrong direction + block to shoot out from.

-QA Testing-

Fix confirmed. Creating a loop doesn't work since it undocks after a number of updates past the rail direction change.
