Drag and drop logistic request across groups

On this picture, if I want to move efficiency module from 1 group to another I have to:
1. Delete it from the first group
2. Set it up in the other group

What I want:
1. Drag
2. Drop

It is not just here. It is personal logistics too.

Expected implementation:
When the drag finishes (it is dropped), copy the entry into the second group and delete it from the first group.

Great suggestion! Adding to that: ctrl-drag could copy the signal (would help a ton for creating many similar signals, when dealing with quality).
Another suggestion on this topic: when you click on a signal recipe/item the focus could go directly to the constant number box, so that we dont have to move the mouse and click in the box to be able to start typing.

Suggestion - Drag and drop requested items across groups - or copy/clone logistic groups

Post by Potwin »

TL;DR
To be able to just drag, drop or copy request items (item type, quality, amount) across different request logistic group, or copy clone them

What?
To be able to just drag, drop or copy request items (item type, quality, amount) across different request logistic group, or copy clone them

Why?
sometimes you need the same group but with slight change for different ship, but you dont want to change the entire group for all trains/ships.

Logistic Dragging Suggestion

Post by chewbacca77 »

For convenience, dragging logistic requests between groups should work and only fail if there's a conflict.
