[Mod Request] Shift + Click for Storage Chest

Post by koopa »

Hello,

I often try to shift click from an assembler to a storage chest (yellow) hopping to set the filter but it doesn't work.

Would it be hard to add that feature ? Shift Right click on a assembler and shift left click on the storage chest to automatically set the filter.
It would also be userfull to do the same with filter inserter: setting the filter based on the filter off the chest.

Anyway that's my idea, I've made small changes to mod before but i have no idea on how to do this.

Not really if you know *what* you want to paste. Assemblers can have multiple in- and multiple outputs, but storage chests only have one filter.
