Re: Blueprint Book is not enough for me

I WOULD like the ability to edit within a blueprint if I find an error. ... I really like this idea. It would eliminate the need to move the blueprint to my storage area. Plop it down. Change stuff. Make a new blueprint. Place the new blueprint in the blueprint storage area. And then delete the old...

[0.17.79]Changing key binding for Build Ghost

When I change or remove the key binding for 'Build Ghost', the ability to use 'shift + left mouse button' when placing a Blueprint is broken. I realize that technically placing a Blueprint is placing a ghost. But to me these seem like different actions and should not have the same key binding. Is it...

Re: The new (enemy) graphics look sterile

Actually, the aliens on this planet have extra chromasomes and a triple helix in their DNA so the possibilities are endless. And the hydrogen, oxygen, helium and nitrogen are of different levels than on earth. And their sun emits slightly different amounts of light and radiation than our earth. Stuf...

Re: What would be an OCD approved network for a basic structure of Roboports, large Powerpoles and Radar?

I use my own chunk size of 48. I use Klonan's Big Wooden Pole and modify it to go 48 tiles. Place a roboport next to each of those. Radars are placed next to every third roboport. I place a bus between two of the roboports going either up/down or left/right. Extend these 48 tile blocks in all direct...

Re: Is it possible to group mods by category in the mod manager?

I doubt the in game mod manager can do it but this would make a nice suggestion. I am thinking if they could do something like NMM for the Fallout and other games that would be great. Or maybe the new Vortex mod manager. Both allow you to place mods in categories and allow multiple profiles which ot...

Transparency with tiles in map.

I created a mod that adds tiles to the game. I used map_color as shown to set the color in the map view for all my tiles. code: map_color={r=0.1, g=0.1, b=0.1, a=0.05}, Is the alpha value supposed to work? (I don't think the alpha has any effect.) I don't see any difference in the map view when chan...

Re: Option for Transparent / Monochrome UI?

There is no such thing as 'burn-in' issues on any monitors that have been produced in many years. There may have been some issues with plasma displays, but lcd and led displays do not have that problem. Edit: OLED displays apparently do have some issues with 'burn-in' but you would have to have the ...
