Hi Andrew,

Note that even if you need to specify the directions explicitely (which, 
in principle, you rarely do), you can keep this syntax and override a 
property.

\version "2.23.0"

\relative {
  \override TieColumn.tie-configuration = #'((-2 . 1) (-4 . 1) (-6 . 1))
  <c' e g>~ q
  \revert TieColumn.tie-configuration
}

Best,
Jean
