Change Chain Transfer

Currently you cannot properly program Chain Transfers to accomodate for safety. If you press a STOP button the following should happen:
The platform stays in the same state (either lifted or not)
The chain should stop rotating

Currently you cannot program this as raising and rotating is the same output.

Hello, @daniel.alles404!
Thank you for your feedback. We agree, there are still some parts that don’t comply with these safety measures. We look forward to solving this issue in a future version of Factory I/O.
