One thing that could be clarified is that by middle clicking on a conveyor port with a block in hand will add any components needed for said block before adding any missing components into your build planner queue (as shown in the video). Apart from that, thanks for showing me that I can add components for a block to the assembly queue without opening the inventory. I can't believe I never read the tooltip that indicated the shortcut for that.

One tip is mmb on an inventory doesn't seem to work if items are stored in an inventory on a separate connected grid. You have to access the inventory and use the transfer button instead. Also, when there is more than one assembler on a grid, there does not seem to be a way to choose which assembler's build queue to use. Maybe turning off all but one assembler would do it, but I haven't tested this. Great tutorial Splitse!

@Splitsie 4 жыл бұрын

Interesting, I hadn't noticed that limitation with collecting from the inventory but there are so many permutations of things with the build planner it's really difficult to test it all :/ Good point about the assembler too, I guess it encourages the use of cooperative mode for the assemblers so you just need the one that gets the queued items

Good choice splitsie. Im still using easy inventory my self - must make the transition. A good thing to note would be a convenient selection of blocks that gives you all the starting components for all blocks.. eg steel plate, interior plate, construction components, girders. These are the components I tend to load my inventory down with when laying down blocks for a design - and then using BOB or a welding ship to finish the job. Honestly after watching the video I think im still going to stick with easy inventory while its available - it just seems less clunky to me.

You can plan for an entire ship using build planner. When building a large ship i'll slap down a projector and que up all the materials to make it using build planner by gown down the projectors missing block list. It's so nice to know i have exactly what i need to build a ship before i lay down the first block. It's even more useful when you first start because materials are scarce in the beginning so being able to que up exactly what you want and nothing more or less saves on ingots and energy. Build planner, like airtightness, was one of those features i didn't know the game needed until it was there and now i wonder how i ever managed before without it.

@popinjayishuman 4 жыл бұрын

There’s one thing you kind of missed splits, if you have a block in hand and middle mouse a container that has the components needed available it will automatically withdraw everything and remove the block from the build planner allowing you to keep middle mousing with other blocks and adding the components until you run out of room In your inventory. This is particularly helpful with things like planning structures as you can grab the large grid light armour block and quickly fill your inventory with steel plate by rapidly clicking.

@Splitsie 4 жыл бұрын

That's true, I got distracted from talking about that while I talked about why it doesn't work like Easy Inventory except for when you have the items available :(

@popinjayishuman 4 жыл бұрын

Splitsie I figured it was just a oversight in the edit as I’m pretty sure I picked that trick up from watching you do it in the unlikely series lol. Glad you made this vid though as I see so many veteran players dismiss build planner because they cut their teeth on easy inventory. For newer players like me though all I’ve ever felt the need for was the build planner.

10:28 The very reason I don't use the BP queuing system. It is to easy to forget that you have items in the queue and will produce the components for those in the queue when you are trying to order up something entirely different. Besides. using the welder to get the components is by far the quickest way.

@JWH3 4 жыл бұрын

Oh one thing I think that might be worth adding is that when you have a lot of components scattered throughout a complex conveyor system things can get weird. You sometimes have to issue multiple middle clicks to draw components from say the connector you're directly tapping and then again to pull more from another container further down the chain that has the rest. I also had an experience the other day while producing a large number of components where it would refuse to pull components that I know were available in a storage container. It has something to do with the way SE issues pull requests from conveyor systems. I've been running into issues like this on a survival server as I scale up my base that has 20 refineries and I don't have a good sorting system so during production with distributed assemblers things can get spread out. I gotta work on that. Exactly how push requests work confuses me a little too as I had an incident last week with my large scale ice mining running out of storage and then gleefully filling up every connector and cargo container on the entire base with ice. I learned how to use sorters real quick after that!

I've experienced similar problems, it seems to not perfectly deal with connected and complex inventories, but as I wasn't able to properly replicate that to find the root cause I wasn't confident to put it in the video, it's worth noting though (which is why I like having these comments so people who want to know more can read them) :)

@YanniCooper 4 жыл бұрын

Also note, depending on how you have your conveyors set up, it might take a few clicks to withdraw everything. So if there is an inventory that is smaller than your plan between you and the items your withdrawal will be limited by it's size. Especially likely if you have personal inventory set to 10x but haven't changed other inventory multipliers.

No, you can't load up blueprint plans, though there is a mod that allows you to order up all the components for a blueprint. I can't recall the name but it was made by Lucas/Meridius IX whose workshop page you should be able to find by searching for the Modular Encounters Spawner :)

Hey @splitsie I have a question maybe you already showed this but I've been having trouble with the planner I make my 8m tall windturbine I make the basic assembler and refinery ports attached I put stuff in the refinery to refine but when I try to que up let's say a container it says x amount of components can't be withdrawn dispute me having the stuff already made so I approach this in another way I've seen players put a survival kit in-between the assembler and refinery and it still works so I try that but still can't withdraw am I doing something wrong

@Splitsie 3 жыл бұрын

You'll need to order the assembler to make the components first, so before trying to withdraw the stuff you need use shift+mmb to add them to the assembler's production queue :)

@@Splitsie yeah but I still have issues placing the order once the refinery is built and connected

ah. i was having trouble getting components from a rover connected to a base with a connector using the MMB on a base storage container, Perhaps if i make sure the container that has the components from the rover is at the top of the list on the left, I might have better luck? how do you figure this stuff out Splitsie b^-^d

I normally go into creative mode and just keep trying to break stuff until I'm fairly happy that I've worked out a good number of the common ways to go wrong :)

I should give this a try. But I'm so used to eazy inventory.

It's worth learning as there are some elements of it which work more nicely, even if the block in hand behaviour is very different :/

Personally, I prefer Easy Inclventory for most stuff, it I still use the Build Planner for a few things.

Thank you, I built it for something that I didn't end up doing so figured I'd take advantage of it for any tutorials that need a wheeled vehicle stand in :)
