Templates please!!!

[ENAK]

Guys, please add templates or at least a native copy paste to the game ASAP! I messed up my hand because of this game! Everything else is second to this!

There's a way to copy / paste recipes, as well as a way to duplicate assemblers / smelters with recipes assigned.

I understand what you mean by template, but what do you mean by native copy/paste beyond what's there now?

Even though it's not a native solution, you should really install Copyinserters mod. It's a god send that will surely be integrated as part of the game. Couple that with the ingame god mode and you won't need blueprints/templates.

Download r2modman here: https://dsp.thunderstore.io/

It's a mod manager and it makes adding any more mod really easy.

Copyinserters is now really stable and doesn't crash anymore

Yeah, I've seen this mod - that's why I wrote "native". ;)

It's great, sure - but I wish we could copy a whole bunch more. It's still a lot of clicky-clicky to build a very big processing center. I wish we could simply copy whole sections of the factories too - Factorio style. I realize that because we're playing on a sphere and the grid keeps changing due to latitude - we can't copy stuff between different latitudes. But still, there must be a solution of some kind here. Latitude-locked copying? Best effort placing on a different latitude (with a warning that something failed)? Allowing for a grid-less placing system?

I agree. My hand is very tired from it too and I really want to put a bunch more time into the game.

I just have to say that with bending nature of the planet grid blueprints would be mostly usable at the equator. Otherwise you can get some very weird looking pastes or perhaps completely nonfunctional ones.

For instance some places assume you can fit a powerpole between 2 assemblers that are tightly placed next to each other, which isn't possible in some places.
