Blueprint Naming
Any tips on managing blueprints? I have subscribed to a ton of blueprints but then have trouble locating some. I guess In a perfect world it would be great to have the actual blueprint name and the Steam listing as the same

They should all be in the Blueprints Tab. With four options of viewing. Apart from the ones I create and name myself, just go off the thumbnails.

When I name my own blueprints, I name them in a way that groups blueprints of the same type together.
For example, in the case of the shop shells I've made I name them as "Shell" followed by how many shops fit in the shell and the theme. "Shell x3-Australian" would be one of my Australian themed shop shells that holds 3 shops, just as an example.

Unfortunately, there's literally NO way to organize blueprints you downloaded from the workshop. You can't rename them, and you can't even change the tags on them....and the "custom tag" feature, sadly, is bugged for workshop items, causing them to get changed around between loads of the game.

In cases where the workshop item has a horribly inappropriate name making, or one in a foreign language that I don't speak...I go into sandbox, place it, and then resave it as my own blueprint. For the rest I just suffer the lack of good organization. :(

Thanks for the feedback everyone. I have stated a major project which will take months. I am creating sandbox zoo's and placing every blueprint from A-Z. Some will need renaming to make them easier to find

On the upside I am enjoying exploring every ones amazing creations from which I am getting inspiration from and by a process of reverse engineering am learning more about building

I use a system similar to Jaggid Edje. What I do is use the create a tag (letters and numbers) for each of my blueprints and use the my filter. I have very little downloaded but do have the archer (for scale) and the custom tag has not been a problem. Well, not yet. :)
