Quick-replacing ghosts should keep configs

Post by BenSeidel »

At the moment, when you place a blueprint all the entities must be placed by a robot or else all the configurations of the ghost entities are lost.

Can we allow the player to place the required entity manually and have it get all the settings of the ghost entity? It would help with the usefulness of blueprints in the early game as you could place your favourite circuit controlled furnace build and not have to remember every circuit connection and setting. It would also reduce the number of clicks required in the early game as well as give a nice transition from manual builds to blueprinted builds.

Implemented in mod:
https://mods.factorio.com/mods/Yoyobuae/manual-revive

Only issue is that reviving buildings provided by other mods will very likely result in broken behavior.
