Copying settings from ghost entities

Post by SupplyDepoo »

It would be nice to be able to copy recipes with Shift+RMB from ghost entities.

I'm thinking to suggest an additional step. I would like to be able to define the recipe of a building when manually placing a ghost.

Of course you can copy/paste an existing building, or even an already placed ghost with recipe. When I get in a design groove, and I am placing all my ghost pieces, it would be helpful to be able to visualize the finished design before going back for all the pieces that I hadn't decided on (a.k.a., forgot to bring the first time) when I started designing. This can be especially helpful when laying refineries and chemical plants to ensure all connections are correct.

Almost the same suggestion, but the other way round.
