Blueprint Report - B19

Description
Adds an inspect tab that displays the total requirements of selected blueprints

If you're tired of having to use google as a makeshift calculator, or worse, having to whip out pen and paper to determine how much you need to build a bunch of blueprints - then this mod is for you!

With this mod, you can select a group of blueprints and open a tab called "Blueprints" on the inspect pane that displays everything that the selected group of blueprints needs. With this tab, planning in light of limited resources becomes less of a tedious exercise in mental math so that you can focus on your designs being as sadisticfun as you can make them

Do the number of blueprints of your industrial wooden-chair-powered raider oven hydroponics greenhouse exceed the vanilla selection limit of 80 objects? Then no fear! Using a special designator included in the mod, you can designate as many blueprints as you want and all the requirements will be displayed in the Blueprints tab as if you selected what you designated.

In addition to normal blueprints, you can select unfinished blueprints (blueprints with material invested in them - called frames) and even blueprints that use minifiables. For your convenience, this mod also automatically selects/designates new frames converted from empty blueprints. More usage notes can be found in Rimworld's mod menu.

If you encounter any problems with the mod, please comment below or (preferably) submit an issue via the github page.

GitHub page[github.com]

Improvements I'm considering
  • Get rid of empty space when displaying only a few requirements.
  • Calculate differences for installations (for minifiables)
  • "Effective costs" - An option to count, for example, 1 component as 12 steel.
  • Display amount of work needed or estimated time to completion.

Have fun going Edgar Allan Poe on raiders harvesting 1000 rice from your hydroponics with your greenhouse that you built with total certainty!

Special thanks to pardeike for Harmony - a nondestructive patch library that allows the mod to work with the game

Hey! Just wanna thank you for this mod. It's subtle, but I still use it a ton! I'm still playing on B19 for now but I just wanna thank you again, this has been a great hand. Unique ideas go a long way in Rimworld! :)

@Luna the Lamb Since you really like the idea, check out Blueprint Totals Tooltip, which is another mod of mine. It's essentially a much less clunky way to check what your blueprints need.

As someone who wants to plan their base before building, thank you!

It is a very interesting feature. I'll give it a try. Thank you.
