I choose to follow what I think the dev vision is for the game, its just the vibe I go for personally.
To that effect, I don't use design tricks like using permanently stationary wagons as big chests etc
I would love to get insight from a dev as to if the asteroid reprocessing quality tradeup was ...

This is surely satire?!?!

Added drag-to-reorder to the research queue.

Oh thank you thank you thank you

great devs

This design choice makes default values impossible

Please see the comment literally right above yours where I show it is not impossible, just unintuitive and a bit of a pain to set up. I still wish kovarex would let us break up combined values if we wish, but its not impossible. I can see his ...

green and red wire have moved to the shortcuts alt+g and alt+r
Might also be worth mentioning that copper cabling electric poles can be done with alt+c now too

Say you have a blueprint that you want to query the player for a number, and you want it to default to something like 1. Maybe a train station train limit.
You create a constant combinator with an L signal of value 1.
Elsewhere in your blueprint however, you have an arithmetic combinator serving ...

Please, I want to be able to see more than a few string characters in this input boxes to make it readable.

Okay, I found a work-around.
For the values that you NEED to remain static, set their value to something very unique, in this case 1000, 1001, then in the formula, write in what they actually should be. They will be initialised to the formula value no matter what.
So in this example, I want signal A ...

For that reason, I would leave it as it is, and if you want to differentiate the numbers in the parametrised blueprints, you just have to give separate numbers, which is always possible.


I disagree. I have just tried to create a blueprint for a train station where the user is asked upon ...

The workaround is to build a realistic logistic system with buffers in place to achieve a goal. If the outpost has 10 ammo left, send the train to deliver 200. It will not request another train for a while, even if some are in logi bots. Use active/passive/storage/buffer chests to control the ...

Any indications this is still the dev plan?

Absolutely : place the ghosts that can be placd as is, fast-replace/upgrade what can be, and finally mark for deconstruction and setup a ghost for the rest.

The dream

I'm note sure we're understanding each other. What I meant is when I upgrade one entity, I don't always want to upgrade all entities of the same type in all my base. I may want to upgrade just a few entities at strategic locations of my base.

The way I'd do it is have N blueprints, one for every ...

Huge +1

Actually very surprised this isn't already a thing with how polished the game is.
Is this a dev choice, or simply overlooked?
I would settle for a mod.

Thanks Posila! I had no idea haha. I am new to signals to be honest. I now want to figure out why it works at all with the two item types, but I'll search the wiki some more, thanks again.
