I wrote a script to automatically place the buildings in the blueprint (no robot is required), but after automatically adding the plug-in, the icon of "item demand" still exists. Is there any way to delete this icon?

That's called an 'item-request-proxy' entity. It has the same coordinates as the machine, so you can find it with:
Where target is the assembler LuaEntity object.

Code: Select all

local proxies = target.surface.find_entities_filtered{
            name = "item-request-proxy",
            position = target.position
          }

Where target is the assembler LuaEntity object.

Thank you. I'll study it
