[Bug?] Blueprints not using Recycled items
As the title states, when placing a blueprint it does not use anything you have already in your recycled inventory but creates everything from raw materials. Especially irritating when placing the more expensive 3 bot miners that I have plenty in recycle from moving planetoids and old mines. Would be great if it didn't do that.

I just checked the blueprint with 5 carbon reactors. I had 9 recycled carbon reactors. After constructing 2 blueprints, I have 0 recycled, and I paid for 1 additional carbon reactor. Seems correct.

Items need to match, so Mine can be placed back, but not an Advanced Mine from a destroyed Mine. You can always use a Recycling machine to get back raw materials if you have plenty.

If you have a savegame, and you think there is a bug, please share it with me.

Next time I tear down a few miners (yes advanced) and use the BP again I'll see if it's just that I had none when I thought I did.

Ok, it does use them just doesn't show the recycle count like when you place a structure manually.

Yes, because a blueprint can contain many devices, so that could be a long list :)
