Table with the following additional optional properties:

• east_to_north_index - uint8 - Default: 5
• north_to_east_index - uint8 - Default: 6
• west_to_north_index - uint8 - Default: 7
• north_to_west_index - uint8 - Default: 8
• south_to_east_index - uint8 - Default: 9
• east_to_south_index - uint8 - Default: 10
• south_to_west_index - uint8 - Default: 11
• west_to_south_index - uint8 - Default: 12

Template:Prototype property Transport belts must have 12 animations. Mandatory if belt_animation_set is not present.
