[Noob] upgrade belts with upgrade planner

Post by Vexirk »

Dear Friends,

i need to upgrade virtually my whole plant from yellow to blue, after eventually settiing up oil and going straight from yellow to blue. Saw on youtube videos people using upgrade planner. Wow, this is cool, me too. So i installed the mod, made a blueprint of the part to upgrade, set the planner, change the blueprint correctly and place it down with shift-leftclick hoping it would replace only the different parts. Surprisingly the yellow stuff seems quite resilient since nothing happens at all. Could somebody be so kind to give a hint what i am doing wrong?

I would personally vote for integrating most of your mods into vanilla as they are just a must have things in any game:
