I had a thought on this 'add' mode. Would it be possible to detect when you release the item from the cursor and complete the deposit at that moment?

Yes, I think, but it won't be a very pretty interface (just text boxes to type either values between 0 and 1, or 2-255). If I understand correctly, you would also want to be able to restrict the current automatic gradient to just the key colors (i.e., show the "good" color constantly until reaching the "warning" color level, then show only that until the "depleted" color level).

I think this sounds like an excellent first thing to put into a settings interface. I have recorded it in the future plans. No promises on timing, sorry.

It would be cool if the list would also contains sites which still has plenty of resources, but the mining rate is low. Usually that indicates something wrong with the site, electric wires broke, trains stuck, anything.

The more resource tiles (not sites, but actual in-world ore entities) you're tracking, the longer it'll take for Factorio to reload the save as it will need to re-establish the connection between the stored entity references and the ones existing in the world. There are some options I might try to mitigate this, but all it would do is shift the delay from load-time to later -- meaning you'd then have good reason complain that, for the first few minutes after loading a save, you get unpredictable lag spikes.

The best workaround I can offer is to only keep sites you're actually mining, or are about to mine. Be wary of large-area ore patches (the bigger they are, the more impact they have). If using endless resources, remove sites that have reached minimum output, as their entities will keep existing (consuming resources at load-time) but will never change (i.e., no useful feedback).

When you view a site, you can rename it. To merge different deposits (of the same resource!) into a single site, tap each deposit (e.g., oil spouts) in turn before the ten second countdown elapses and the site is created. The countdown resets every time you tap a new deposit. Site addition will be cancelled if you tap the ground, so be precise.

Update 7.16 is now out:
https://github.com/narc0tiq/YARM/releas ... 0.7.16.zip
Changes:
Ensure force_data is available when it should be, even if it wasn't created at game init. Which it really should have been.
