blueprint copy paste history

Post by Hoffz »

Hi together,

TL;DR
Access more than the last blueprint copy i made when trying to paste a blueprint.

What?
I would like to have a possibility to have more than one blueprint in my copy paste. Like a blueprint book of the last 10 copies that i made. It should be fairly simple as the same well known buttons could be used to cycle through it.

Why?
Sometimes i make a design and copy it to paste it into my factory. But when arriving at the position i want it to be i realize that i need to shift something by one tile. How to? yes use copy paste that is quick. But this will overwrite my design. Now i need to Save my temporary design into an actual blueprint (if there is inventory space that is easy) and then i can proceed. When i am in pilot mode i sometimes forget about that and then the design is lost and i have to recreate it.

Already possible, default keybind is Shift + Mouse Wheel. In the controls settings it's called Next/Previous Clipboard under the Tools section.

Fascinating, it looks like i have never tried it....
I just opened my save and it is indeed working.
I was longing for this feature for so long i am not sure how i overlooked it.
Thanks for the Clarification.

Looks like this thread is already obsolete.
