With this mod you can quickly set up your requester chests to request the exact amount of materials for exactly one build of a blueprint.
1. Open requester chest.
2. Pick up written blueprint from inventory or quickbar. 3. BOOM!!
4. Things were copied to the requester slots of the chest.
Things to note:
Requester chests only have 10 request slots.
Blueprints with more than 10 different items will have those 10 items with the highest count copied over.
Will overwrite existing requests starting at slot #1 and will not clear any other slots it wont need.
I chose this kind of trigger for the copy because I could not make other ways work because of modding limitations (no access to existing GUI elements). Else I would have tried to make it work with clicking the blueprint on the requester slots or placing the blueprint inside the slot itself.
But it works because you can not open inventories when you hold a blueprint.

Request slots will not visually update until the UI of the chest is reopened.

I take it this doesn't work with intermediates and only works with buildings one can place in world?
If somehow one could copy materials from an assembler to requester slots it'd make setting up bot-based production chains waaaay easier

It works with Factorio 0.12.3 so I lowered the requirement to that version.
Can now be used with Version 12.3 and upwards.

Factorio 0.12.11 broke this mod.
Edit :
I read a post by Jorgenre to fix the broken mod due recent updates, all we need to do is replace "game.on" to "script.on"
Is that it ?
I only see single line of that in this mod.
