Add quantity to choose-elem-button

Post by Hermios »

Hi guys
Thanks a lot for the new version, still in test :D
So now, a new suggestion:
In choose-elem-button, give the possibility to add constant quantity rather than an element.
Would be great!
Many thanks

Did you find an alternative to do this?

Bumping for interest to have a quantity selector in addition to the filter on the "choose-elem-button" element.

+1. However, I'd like to be able to make the quantity selector optional. (Use case: Currently working on GUIs for Autodrive where players should be able to set preferred fuel/ammo items for a vehicle, but shouldn't be able to set the quantity unless the vehicle grid contains a certain equipment.)
A good mod deserves a good changelog. Here's a tutorial (WIP) about Factorio's way too strict changelog syntax!

By the way, the original request is for the "or choose a constant" selector you see when setting circuit conditions, not for specifying quantity.
