If you feel like you loose something when using copy, then this is a sign that you should have stored the blueprint into the book. No. Actually I am using it as intended. A "just for now" and "do not need tomorrow" and "do not need on next map" and "do not need la...

There has to be thought into how the player will expect things to work and how to teach them the controls. Yes, and I did give it thought. I tried many ways to make a hotkey do what I wanted. TBH this felt very pipette to me. Just a quick grab and go, with no reason to save it for later, 1 time fix...

When a rocket gets ready to launch, and first comes up from the silo, the GUI is updated to include the slot for the satellite. At that time if any part of the rocket silo GUI window is outside the viewable screen area then the GUI window is moved to be 100% within view. I would expect that as I wat...

I remembered an obscure feature and tested it just now. I think the feature you want may already exist in vanilla. 1. In Vanilla Factorio, use "Alt-B" to get the "select blueprint" tool. 2. Hold shift and click on an assembler. 3. You instantly get a blueprint ghost in your curs...

It would simply create a temporary blueprint in the cursor of whatever you have selected, and delete it afterwards . (The point of the mod would be to do the deletion for you automatically) If people don't agree with you on the forum, maybe they will understand if they get to try it in the game Hav...

If you use Ctrl-C, your blueprint library is not affected at all. You can however quickly add a blueprint to it. I'm not sure what your problem is with "polluting" the Copy/Paste history. If you use it as (unreliable) container for useful blueprints, I would rather add them to blueprint l...

Pretty sure it would be trivial to add a mod that adds this behavior. That is a poor suggestion for any existing suggestion. Then people have to use the same mods to play together. This request does not change the existing interface (just adds to it), it does not add new functionality to the game (...

1. You generally use pipette to just get a machine ghost in hand without having to search inventory or quick bars. This would not change, and would continue to operate as expected. If you drop a machine with the wrong recipe, yes you'll correct it eventually but who knows how many belts/chests get ...

I already explained, how I add blueprints to the book in library without using inventory and without open the library with B:

I already explained, I do not want to pollute the inventory .......... OR ......... the blueprint library with needless trash.
One of the reasons this is a nice change.

to (1) I explained in my post before, why it can be worse to have wrong recipe set. I just said, there are cases, where it is worse. Again as I explained, if a player leaves a bad recipe or no recipe, that is a player mistake not a broken GUI. And this is dodging the fact that there are still at le...

It seems too many people are just used to the way it works.. Perhaps instead Shift-Q can copy with the recipe and Q leave as is

It can cause issues, if you copy the wrong recipe, if (once built) it starts loading wrong resources and/or crafts unwanted stuff. Can get quite messy and it is not easy to reset the correct or an empty recipe on a ghost. You basically have to pick it from inventory in this case, which makes it inc...

What about a situation where you wanted that level assembler in hand for a different recipe, and that was the fastest way to get it? Doesn't cause an "issue", no, but now you need to clear the recipe on the resulting assembler, which you can't do if it's a ghost. If you grab a nearby asse...

Two different outcomes but equally useful depending on the situation. I can buy that, but I can not think of a use case when using the pipette would cause an issue by bringing the recipe. I only see a faster way to work with ghosts over the map ... giving me better odds to get it right before a bot...

Ini file comments start with "#" or ";". Usage of "--" is not supported as a comment start.

Thank you.

Upon further inspection, due to a bug, the comments were not being printed in the (auto-generated) locale file. The only time it works is when there is only one comment, which is treated as a key to a value if that comment happens to contain the = character -- [font=default-bold]\nAKA /\n@usage: /[/...

+1 It is like 2 trips every time *edit* .... probably only in ghost mode though... I do not expect (nor would I want) the recipe to be carried over when placing buildings, only ghosts. Why? This would make a better way to work on blueprints, leaving the recipe in the ghost is a quick reminder of wha...

it would be nice to know that the build commands I run were followed always eventually instead of probabilisticly sometimes.

I agree with Furyofstar that this place is definitly not the best to get informed on what is happening in Ukraine as this is a video game forum thread about the support from video game developper to a country and a people being attacked in a war. It's unlikely you will have valuable information her...
