... Players often use items as quick placeholders on the map for planning:
- future factory areas
- mall or bus layouts
- rail network planning
- outpost locations
- blueprint preparation

Currently, adding a tag requires several manual steps:

TL;DR
Allow us to switch off the logistics and building areas for a given roboport via the circuit network


What?
One of my outposts got into a bit of a weird situation - my construction bots had run out of laser turrets, but still had walls available to replace existing ones. Biters were ...

... on demolishers, i will once again repoint out, that this is mining resources, so this affect Gleba and Nauvis.

Meaning that little mining outpost will be heavely attacked. Constantly.

Last one: Electric poles are a major trigger for the bitters. You know how the electric poles have an area ...

... very important since we don't want to see wieres and cables everywhere.

And of course, this ideea can be used in so many more ways. You have an outpost where you are just doing quality farming from the very start (aka the miners), well like this, the outpost will be deconstructed once everything ...

... for them to construct stuff.

And for the other stuff. It's for when you want to reconstruct stuff, like on space platforms, Aquilo, small mining outpost and so on, where you can but also would prefer not to pick up an accumulater since it will "delete" the stored power. Or simple because you are ...

... labs on Nauvis to engage spoilable transport.

There are dozens of possible names (I think slave lab won't be popular), I just want to throw "lab outpost" in the ring.

(PS: Aquilo does not need a mayor quirk, a minor may be sufficient. Maybe the lab beeing a heat sink.)
(PPS: Idea for a possible ...

... be massivly encouraged without restricting like how surface conditions are. Meaning expanding in all planets will be worth VS "let's just make an outpost to get the sience pack and surface restricted item, and the rest we'll do somewhere else". And exactly because quality will be more usefull (since ...

... lazy it works :lol:) and just rotate them if needed but honestly connecting them together is super simple and this blueprint will make the oil outpost hella ugly but it is a possible solution

This would be very handy for my ACME trains - trains that pick up and deliver a mixture of items for different tasks, like setting up a new mining outpost or a new reactor complex. Some of the conditions get a little complex because of the disjunctive normal form. It would be very convenient to be ...

The ideea is simple. You create a mining outpost and put a programable speaker to let you know when either the belts is empty = no more ores left, or the miner itself, like they are legendary so you want to move them asap once they are done or whatever. But the issue is that each time the speaker will ...

... just to prevent "softlocks"

On the ideea of other mods, well, the best exemple is a death world, or simple you want to take it easy, no mining outpost, no nothing, the ideea of infinite ores is exactly that. At the starting location (or landing for new planets), there to be one for each, that is ...

... cause trouble if you pin in the description something that is not contained in the blueprint : "this combinators trigger the put in the norther outpost".

One way i found to alleviate the need for this is to use numbers for combinators, : " 14 : this combinators trigger the combinator 12 and 17 at ...

... and to assign new ones to tasks. For example, say you have a train picking up Coal from one station, Iron from another, and then taking it to an outpost to make Grenades. If you want a second train to do this, instead of having to manually assign each station and conditions, you could just plop the ...

... hands to manufacture it, but you already have ideas for a new plant that will be able to provide such delicate operations.

As you survey your outpost, you cannot help but notice that the air has grown thicker. Your suit's sensors inform you that the pollutants you're introducing into the air are ...

... 16 rockets worth due to productivity bonuses, and can be shipped anywhere with no cost. Your base would be a collection of incredibly generic outposts that all go Landing Pad -> Mining/Processing/etc -> Silo, and all ship up to a massive ship in orbit that could drop anything anywhere, and could ...

... logistics system, a provider chest tells the network hey I have this item available, and a requester can ask for it.
With the new radar in 2.0, an outpost on one side of the planet can say hey I have this available, and a radar on the other side of the planet can ask for it, and you can set up a ...

... except observing if a turret is shooting at something. That forces players to implement "dumb" solutions.
Examples:
Artillery trains tend to have outposts they regularly visit, either by making each outpost have a unique train stop and making the train visit them in order, or having a clock to ...

... train" ( with a different destination).

Obviousy in game, it's always "over-estimation", not "just the perfect number of trains", because when outpost deplete , some trains will require longer path, or "more train constantly running" to supply the same station as previously. But if you suddenly ...
