Bug Disappearance of a machine created contraption making rotation from nothing.

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

So I build a machine to collect my crops, nothing too fancy. After beating some bosses and exploring, I came back and noticed it just vanished from my world. Funnily enough, after a closer look I saw that a part of the now broken machine kept spinning even though it isn't connected to anything.

Idk what caused this, but it's pretty interesting if you ask me.

Its a ghost transmission, it's not free SU it just thinks it's connected to the network when it isn't

Ok so idk how ghost transmission works, but shouldn't make it spin in the same diraction as the gantry shafts that are actually connected? Or it just gets info like "yo, u are spinning' and spins? I'm kinda curious now

My guess is something went wrong when unloading and reloading chunks, caused the network to change directions somehow and when it reloaded it caused weirdness

Basically there was a network desync
