PLEASE REVERSER THE CRAFT QUEUE

Ideas that are too old (too many things have changed since) and ones which won't be implemented for certain reasons or if there are obviously better suggestions.

PLEASE REVERSER THE CRAFT QUEUE

Post by online7up1 »

As the title said, when I need something asap, what i need to do is clear entirely the ******* queue.

This is nonsense.

You should be automating things so you can just grab the already-crafted items instead of always having stuff in your manual crafting queue.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.

This has already been suggested in the following threads:

viewtopic.php?f=6&t=62338 Double ended crafting queue
viewtopic.php?f=6&t=49361 Rearrange hand craft queue - QOL
viewtopic.php?f=6&t=41594 Ctrl+click to add to front of craft queue
viewtopic.php?f=71&t=63092 Reorder crafting

I agree that it is annoying to have to clear your entire queue whenever you need to urgently craft one single item. However, I also understand the Factorio developer's concerns about making handcrafting too powerful, because the purpose of the game is automation.

This problem has been discussed in depth in the following thread:

viewtopic.php?f=6&t=62508 make hand-crafting only possible when stationary

In the above thread, I also offer an alternative solution (which has its own disadvantages, though).
