Copying and pasting connected modules fails ?

[Drybreeze]

Why is it that when I connect capsule refineries to storage boxes, and set it up so that the pulls work fine, then i copy that as a unit and paste it the connections aren't translated to all of the units on the pasted block...?

It's doing my head in.
Is it a bug or the game just doesn't have this feature?

If I copy and paste a series of blocks that include a storage block with set up auto-pulls, the pasted storage block and capsule refineries are all linked correctly and function, but the auto-pull set ups in each storage block is not translated... why not? Very frustrating since the whole point of doing this is so I don't have to set up a zillion storage block auto-pulls.

The connections between blocks are stored in Templates (the copy and paste), but there is no metadata in them containing the filters if that's what you were asking about.

Yeah, the set auto-pulls, like "chibaz - 1000 per tick"... doesn't translate. Annoying when you want to set up for example a factory module that you can copy and paste, or save and load. Aw well.
