These are not in-game blueprints, I chosen bad name for these things. They are more like schemas or production chain calculations.

Are blueprints in the game as of July 25? If so, how do you access the blueprint management portion of the UI?

Great Job on the Tool! I'm using to see where i am starving for fuel on my current build and to Increase more production. Is there any plans for updates regarding the tool?

2)

In my examples I used 'lock' feature to lock final product, every intermediate machine has something like '200% 2/1' in lower-left corner, which means machine is used by 200%, you need to place two.

3)

Yes, multi-selection would help with both issues, if you could multi-select, you could move, delete, copy, paste. This is long pending feature, which would require quite a lot of work. When I developed this planner, I had a mood to make something useful, but I stopped development some time ago. Now I prefer to play games in my free time, not to write code . I'm collecting feedback, and already have some requested useful features, if I ever have a mood/energy to continue development - I will implement them all .

Hello @Martinusack. I did this planner because as old factory games player I like at least to know correct rates, and good game Evospace didn't have one. Regarding your notes:

1)

All machines were taken from actual game files, so it contains everything I found. I also manually added conveyors/pipes to calculate possible throughput. I don't play since 0.18.3, so possibly very new machines weren't added to planner (I don't know what you meant under 'etc etc' ), I'll try to reinstall game and check if too much was added already.

I also watch game state periodically, and when @wavelet_noise releases 0.19, I will try to update planner, but author moves to lua, so it will not be just 5 minute task to update all machines in 0.19.

Regarding flywheel - it wasn't added, because it just passes mechanical energy, the game states it looses power, but I didn't notice that, so I thought it is just not important to have flywheel in planner).

Hello there, im speechless how good your blueprint planner is... and i have few questions for you:

1) will you update the website with more machines from the game? like: i can search for steel flywheel but cant drag it to canvas and use it in the build... etc etc with other items

2) i sorta developed my own vertical system (its not as efficient as yours but its mine ) but when i place your very impressive build in to planner, it doesnt say how many machines you "stack" together to have the right input amount in to the next machine...

3) QOL improvements
- adding X/delete button next to the meny button on the card so i dont have to click 20 times to delete few machines
- mouse field selection to move many parts away or delete many machines at once...


Keep up your good work, im enjoying the game and this tool 100%

Thank you, I'm glad planner is still usefull for Evospace!

Yes, vertical builds are not realistic, but they are very space efficient and really easilly expandable. I tried usual builds at start, but they quickly become complete mess, and if you want to add another factory in the middle, they will become even more mess.

I don't really like the vertical builds as they look unrealistic but the factory planning tool is great, I lack English words to express how much I like it!
