Inconsistent keybinds for clearing things

Ideas that are too old (too many things have changed since) and ones which won't be implemented for certain reasons or if there are obviously better suggestions.

Inconsistent keybinds for clearing things

Post by Optera »

Currently clearing set filters and options uses either middle or right mouse:

MMB clears:
inventory filters
quickbar

RMB clears:
logistic requests
signals in constant combinator
settings > controls

Please agree on one mouse button for all cases of clearing something.

Ah, that’s why I always need to break my fingers until I find the right key combination. :)
Cool suggestion: Eatable MOUSE-pointers.

It's not going to happen. Right mouse button is used for other more common things in the cases where middle button is used now.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.

How about using middle to clear?
Or at least let us set the keybinds.
