Re: Please Add Draw Tool
Welcome to the forum.
For high-level planning communicable via an icon and/or short text you can use tags (see Add tag button in the right sidebar).
For low-level planning you can use ghosts (in remote view press E, select the desired thing / select from quickbar / pipette from another entity in the world), then place on the planned location.
If the location is out of roboports' construction range, the ghosts won't even create alerts. If it's within the range, your robots will try to build it though.
If you use ghosts of quality entities you don't have in storage (for example legendary walls), your robots will of course not build it.
Also the ghosts will keep issuing alerts.
And if there is large amount of ghosts, they will impact the efficiency/performance of your robots fulfilling other ghosts' build orders.
