== Function ==
 
The conveyor block is a device that allows the transfer of items through conveyor ports on all its sides. It has no control panel or interface in which to interact with.
 
:;Note * The conveyor block does not need to be powered in order to move items.
 
== Placement ==
 
The block can be placed on all grid types (small ships, large ships, stations). It takes up 1 block space on both small ships, and large ships/stations. Multiple conveyor blocks may be placed next to each other in either direction.
 
== Usage ==
 
Conveyor ports on all its sides give greater flexibility for the player when creating [[Conveyor Network|Conveyor Networks]] on ships and/or stations. An example of its multi-directional port use would be to first:
 
:*Place a conveyor block next to a conveyor port on a device such as a [[Refinery]]. Keep in mind, rotation doesn't matter as it has ports on all its sides.

:*Next, Once placed, place an [[Assembler]] with one of its conveyor ports facing towards the conveyor block.

:*Now place a cargo container on another side of the conveyor block.

:*The connection is now established between all 3 devices. All devices may interact with one another through the single conveyor block in the middle.
 
== Examples ==
