How to add icon

[DanCognac]

I making a mall and need to know how to ad icon to show what goes where...

If you mean for a blueprint, usually we use constant combinators for that and set its signal to whatever item to display.
If you mean on the map, you right click where you want to set it.

for blueprint but constant combinator or way down to researche tree. I will have to wait to be there before using it.

[DanCognac]

was hoping that a mod would allow to place icon for blueprint...and thank for the respond

Circuit network is a relatively cheap and early technology (100 of red and green science packs), are you sure you are not thinking about something else?

[DanCognac]

Just i begin the game and it seem far for me...

Circuit network is pretty early tech if you look at the tech tree, but if you don't want to wait for that be researched you can make a sandbox map or use the map editor with all the tech researched so you can create the blueprint there, save it in your bp storage and use it in your freeplay game.

[DanCognac]

Ok thank very much will do that

If you add the constant combinator to the blueprint in sandbox mode, you don't even need it researched. The ghost will still show up and display the icons (provided you enabled combinator display in the settings).

One reason Constant Combinators are preferred for this is they are vanilla. Sure, there is a mod (signs, I think its called? signposts? something like that) but if the mod is not installed, you won't see anything but a big ? where an item is in a BP.
