A new player unfamiliar to the upgrade planner will be very confused that an empty upgrade planner marks every upgradable item you draw it over.

This is strange, as the upgrade planner should only mark the items that are to be upgraded. In case of an empty upgrade planner, nothing is to be upgraded, therefore nothing should be marked.

Thanks for the report however that's working fully as intended. The empty upgrade planner upgrades things on their default upgrade path.

Hm, unfortunately i still don't understand the behaviour...

If I have an upgrade planner in my inventory and modify it - for example only upgrade belts, and I use it directly its working fine. If I use the green button on the quickbar, it still behaves as if I have an empty upgrade planner and tries to upgrade everything - belts, inserters, assemblers, etc. I thought the green button was a shortcut to the planner in your inventory, is that not correct?

I assume this rather creates a new one. I mean, how should it give you "the upgradeplaner" in your inventory, if you have created 10 of them?

Those buttons always give you a new version of what ever you click. That's their entire purpose.
