5 years ago As a new user of this mod, what I expected upon installing it was to find a new selection tool, like the built-in Upgrade Planner or modern versions of YARM. The current state, an item that costs nothing to make and can't be deleted, feels very Factorio 0.14 or 0.15.
That's mostly me forgetting to add it AND not being able to come up with a decent icon. So any suggestions are highly welcome. I was thinking some kind of arrow and a simple representation of a module (which is the hard part, since the small preview has very few pixels to work with)
I think it would be useful to have Module Inserter be an Upgrade Planner–like item that players can store, share (via export string), drop, or delete along with its configuration if desired.
Is this at all possible? Whether it would need someone like myself to submit a patch, or if you'd work on it yourself, right now I'm just curious if the idea would be entertained at all.
I can add a custom export/import functionality to the gui. The current planner types (blueprint, deconstruction, upgrade) don't allow saving the pairings that i need.
I'll take a look what I can get done over the weekend.

Aside from modernizing the user's interactions with the mod to make it feel more like the built-in tools of 0.17, I think it would be useful to have Module Inserter be an Upgrade Planner–like item that players can store, share (via export string), drop, or delete along with its configuration if desired.
