Description

Either the wording is wrong or there is really a bug:
https://github.com/mt-mods/pipeworks/blob/dd660c3c1cb62a9f808140b547c7fdb4d3141998/settingtypes.txt#L88-L95

Especially this part "This breaks expected behavior with digiline conducting tubes"

What good is it that e.g. autocrafter can get signals from below, if the tubes can't deliver it.

#146 reverts to old default behaviour but doesn't fix the bug. It also shortens the comment. See discussion of PR #146

Research direction

Start with settingtypes.txt lines 88-95 and review issues #142, #145, and #146 for the intended behavior of enable_vertical_digilines_connectivity. Reproduce the setting with digiline-conducting tubes and determine whether the setting description or tube connectivity is wrong. Done means the behavior and wording agree, with the related regression resolved if it is a bug.
