So something like this?

I'd always thought that iconography could be added for logistic chests to help both colorblind individuals as well as just to better communicate what they do. I've attached an example of something that has been kicking inside my head for a while. https://i.ibb.co/WxhDMdr/Logictic-Chest-Iconography-i...

It's all opinions here for sure, without a doubt. But what else are we supposed to talk about? The weather?

The previous FFF had a screenshot showing planet-specific pressures and magnetic fields. No temperature, but it seems close to something weather related.

So what happens with electric power pole placements and ghosts? Presently, you get a preview of the coverage of a power pole via a blue-filled border. But if the ghosts are also blue, it might be difficult to see the power pole coverage amidst other things, especially with tiles.

Maybe it was; still on the far side of the keyboard though.

I didn't consider the relationship between copy/cut/paste shortcuts. ... Perhaps it can be down to individual actions, whether they act as a finalizing action. I can imagine a checkbox next to every keyboard shortcut option that causes it to terminate further keyboard shortcuts that share a modifier...

TL;DR The modifier keys can be used as keyboard shortcuts but also can be used for other actions, and sometimes they conflict. This is a suggestion for resolving some of those conflicts. What ? The explanation might do better with an example. With a US keyboard layout, my right-[CTRL] key is on the...

I have my own observations to add to this: When you have exactly the right materials to make a lamp (two iron plates and three copper plates) and nothing extra (so no copper cables), you are unable to hand-craft a lamp. It cites that you do not have enough ingredients. If you craft the electronic ci...

Thanks; I didn't see that in my search. I'll append my observations to it.

Details: When you have exactly the right materials to make a lamp (two iron plates and three copper plates) and nothing extra (so no copper cables), you are unable to hand-craft a lamp. It cites that you do not have enough ingredients. If you craft the electronic circuit needed for the lamp from th...

Details: When waiting at a temporary train stop, if you place or remove a stop (temporary or not), the current wait condition will be reset. Reproduction steps: On a train with at least one reachable stop, cause the train to go to a temporary stop. When there, while waiting, place another temporary...

Details: When using the upgrade planner on something that has at least two upgrades, like a yellow belt (which can be upgraded to a red belt and yet again to a blue belt), if you select those belts for upgrade a second time while the first upgrade is in progress, some of your bots will get confused...

Details: When selecting multiple mods to update and having the top one highlighted such that the info pane on the right shows the info for the mod highlighted, when you choose to update selected, the mods will update and be removed from the list on the left as expected. This means the mod selected ...

The only reasonable thing would be give circuit network read of missing materials from roboport. I am intrigued by the idea of having a roboport output missing entities and counts to the circuit network. I can think of a couple of cool uses for that. I may end up floating that idea on this board to...

I did not see that. Thank you for linking to it.

What if you could place a blueprint into the logistic request slots and it just did that? I actually have another post for exactly that. It's pending mod approval before it shows up, and once it does I'll edit my OP to link to it, but this suggestion isn't the same, though it is similar. This sugge...

TL;DR I suggest adding a feature where one can add to or set their character logistics request slots the ghost entities currently missing. What ? When placing down a blueprint, I will naturally not always have the items I need on hand. Currently, I find myself hovering over the missing materials al...
