For the "undo" I think an "undo" icon on the map for about 30 seconds could point you to the place you just broke (if you did the undo by accident). Not that the game should know if you broke something, just place an icon in the center of the "undo" operation to let the player know/check where ...

I was about to suggest something similar. A toggle for alphabetical/chronological order would be very useful.

When you have several runs with several saves on each, the chronological order is better.
Also, the map editor load menu does not have the "playtime" displayed, so it is harder to find the ...

TL;DR
When placing a blueprint on the world, right click it to place it and deconstruct not only rocks/trees, but also any other building in the way (splitters, wrong way belts, assemblers, ...).

Why ?
When you are placing ghosts, you can remove things with right mouse button.
If you have a ...

TL;DR
To ease moving things (just a bit), after a cut command, place the mouse in the position needed to have the blueprint in the same position the cutted things were.


What ?
Just that. Maybe not possible for big blueprints, but I thik it would be nice when it can be done.

Why ?
When you ...

TL;DR
Some blueprints with chemical plants could be flipped

What ?
Recipes with the same liquid in both pipes allow the chemical plant to be flipped (sulfur, solid fuel from light and heavy oil, lubricant, plastic, batteries and explosives).
If all chemical plants in the blueprint have a recipe ...

I am glad I am not the only one that has to think (click) twice when setting priorities.

I don't know if the buttons would be confusing when the filter is active. I think It could look like this:


Maybe an " * " on the empty button.

When you set the power switch status (on/off) by hand (not with circuit network) to be "on" and copy/paste or create blueprint, it is "off" when pasted.

Maybe intended to be that way?

I think its status should be saved as it is with splitter priorities for example.

TL;DR
Remake current yellow arrows for priorities in the splitter's GUI as buttons.


splitter_gui.png


What ?
Click an arrow button to set the priority to that side. If it already has the priority, then clears it.
Buttons should be rotated to match the splitter preview.
Current GUI should ...

TL;DR
Speed up blueprint manual construction to reduce the need for early bots mods


What ?
1) Allow the pipette to work while holding LMB and dragging the cursor.
2) When dragging the pipette and entering a new cell, it takes from the inventory a copy of the thing/blueprint-gost in that place ...

I think that in 0.17 there will be Copy/Paste/Cut. That is great, I would add:

Click on an empty place and drag: starts new blueprint selection.
Right-click on an empty place and drag: starts standard dismantle selection.
When holding a blueprint, clicking on a book opens it to let you put the ...

What I would add:

1.Customization. Not only weapons, but increased armor plates, better motors for speed, shields... basically what can be placed on a modular armor and something more.
2. Remote control. Maybe an optional module for remote control. You select the mech from map view and control it ...

TL;DR
Shortcuts to craft common things without having to search them


What ?
Pressing shift (or other key) shows the item count that can be crafted for each item in the toolbar (maybe in green digits above the current count). Then with the key pressed, left click craft one and right click ...

TL;DR
The game is nearing release and it is fine in the major part, but after release, a DLC could add some extra motivation to continue. And that could be building an FTL ship.

What ?
So, the rocket is a very normal, very slow rocket that can’t get us to our home across the stars. After ...

TL;DR

A place in the blueprint library where the latest blueprints deleted or cleared and deleted books are stored.

What ?

The recicle bin could have the latest 10 or 20 deleted or cleared blueprints and 5 blueprint books.

Why ?

Because errors happens.

Sorry. My fault. I didn't look at the programmable speaker (maybe I got confused by its name).
Thank you.

TL;DR
A circuit network device that allows the player to define an alarm (title and icon) to be fired if a condition is meet (or while the condition is meet).


What ?
This would be a device, something like a combinator.
You can set a title for the alarm and an icon (same as you select one for ...
