Shortcut Keys
Hi,

I was watching a video and I cannot locate it any more. They used some kind of shortcut to unload their personal inventory into the refinery/cargo container.

How what is that shortcut? Any other useful shortcuts I should be aware of?

Hi, usually > Shift or Ctrl + mouse click left or right for inventory and sliders on blocks options.

Tho the SE programmer should have added a lot in-game F1.

I tried both and none of the combonations I have trade worked to quickly unload my personal inventory into the cargo container.

Could be "Deposit all ingots. ores, and components" (3rd icon down) also as alt-MMB but that doesn't work for me at this time.

I'll have o try Alt+MMB....thanks. If it doesn't work, then I'll chalk it up to either it was taken out or it got messed up somehow.

What you saw may have been a mod, like this one. "Easy Inventory"

To my knowledge this mod has been implemented and is now called the "Build planner"
When you open the inventory there is the inventory on the left side and an inventory on the right side. Check in the middle, there are 4 icons, when you hover over them it shows the hotkeys.
Let me paste something from my notes:
To add things to build planner:
With welder in hand on unwelded block, press MMB to add missing parts to build planner.

To withdraw/deposit components:
For that to work you need to look at a conveyor port so it's highlighted.

Alt + MMB = Drop all Ore/Components
MMB = Withdraw and update Build Planner
CTRL + ALT + MMB = Withdraw and keep Build Planner
CTRL + MMB = Withdraw 10x and keep Build Planner
CTRL + SHIFT + MMB = Add Build Planner to Production and keep Build Planner.

You can also equip a block (place it in your hands) then walk to a conveyorport and press MMB to get components for the block in your hands.

It doesn't work on subgrids though!

Use a Sorter, it will empty your ship or cargo in 1 second if well placed and setup.

I'm speaking about personal inventory not ship inventory.

Some of those notes on the build planner are no longer accurate. i.e. With welder in hand you right-click to add it to build planner.

Either way, thanks for the keys, that will help me out.

Ah Sorry I misunderstood and I never had to empty all my character inventory so I never needed to search for that key.

The one that knows all keys is Dev Xocliw and all can chat with him live on Twitch every weeks so maybe ask him.
