I'd like to see the ability to build an item and have the necessary/missing items pulled from the logistics network. Perfect example: gears. Lots of things require gears, but I don't always have enough on me. I might not even have the material to build the gears, but I know that the gears are in my network.

Perhaps this could be done with the personal roboport and logistics bots in inventory.

We have already logistic slots on the character. with them you can order things you need.

OK, they do not work 'on create' but you can always have a stock of basic craft items in your inventory if you are in your logistic-network and the materials are in provider chests.
