telardo, I saw that update you beautiful person

I have the same issue as Wolf Renegade
Wolf Renegade 21 Sep @ 11:47am 
Hello there seems to be a small unintended conflict with the designator shapes mod, in a way that brings up the base vanilla shapes window forcefully, even if it is disabled within the former's mod settings. Would it be possible to have the vanilla shapes window be an optional thing by any chance or be able to disable it?

this is literally a must have for me everytime now

Once I learned how this thing works... man, I can't believe I've been base-building without it.

@Stupid Dumb Lizard Good feedback. I've added the window for shapes.

Mod Version: 1.6.0.1 (Unsure if I'm out of date, I unsubbed and resubbed to try and force any updates.)

- The default keys still seem to be set to Q and T which seem to interact with things strangely. (Vanilla Shape Designations and Beauty Overlay hotkey.) I know there's a patch that says this was changed for the 1.6 beta, but when clicking Reset to Default it does QT again.)

- Using pipette doesn't bring up architect menu, which before was fine, but right now I don't know which makes me unable to know what shape I'm using, this has lead to a fair few confusing scenarios. I don't know if specific shapes are default for some commands or not, Maybe ensure that when using pipette only square shape is chosen, or open the menu so people can see that new feature exists?

The default for copying floors seems to be line instead of fill rectangle/square
telardo  [author] 24 Jun @ 12:28am 
Update for 1.6 beta.

- Support copying plans.
- Support expanding and shrinking zones.
- Support copying bridge and removing bridges.
- Default key set to C to prevent the conflict with vanilla.

Your current hotkey preference won't be changed so you may have to set it yourself once.

S tier mod. should be vanilla

I love this mod!

能不能禁用一些命令,如多层mod的搬运,老是第一个q出来,也用不了,想能不能在快捷q的时候不识别这个命令
Potato 10 Jan @ 11:11am 
Thanks for making this mod! If I could make a suggestion, please consider pressing the Q key to pull up a geothermal generator when the mouse hovers over a geyser.
梦境触感 6 Oct, 2024 @ 8:22pm 
哇嗷,最近也在玩异星工厂,然后就很想用q快捷复制,但是默认的O键太远了,没想到大佬也是模仿异星工厂做的!!太好了!
krzarb 14 Sep, 2024 @ 3:17am 
Thanks for this awesome mod. I have a request, would it be possible for the Q key to bring up the smooth floor designator when the mouse is over the appropriate type of terrain? Thanks :)
Randomorph 5 Jul, 2024 @ 5:43pm 
This mod is amazing.

I am playing a tree loving colony and having to manually designate trees to be uprooted is tedious and horrible. This made it actually reasonable to do.

Just unbelievably stupidly useful mod, especially designator cycle thing! Thank you so much for it!
Rockstar 5 Oct, 2023 @ 8:36am 
I could kiss you for this mod. Another Factorio addict that misses the controls!
Now if only we had ctrl copy and paste!

I'm at 308 mods and this is the most useful one as a former Factorio addict player
StarlightSovereign 17 May, 2023 @ 1:28pm 
Awesome thank you!
telardo  [author] 17 May, 2023 @ 12:31pm 
@StarlightSovereign Got an inspiration. The latest update allows you to copy floors either.
StarlightSovereign 16 May, 2023 @ 8:22pm 
Okay, yeah that works. Shame it doesn't work on floor! You should probably mention that in the description. It had me scratching my head! Thanks for the mod! :fullstars:c
telardo  [author] 16 May, 2023 @ 8:16pm 
@StarlightSovereign What's the expected behaviour? For some technical reasons, it can't copy the floor designator. Can you activate it when hovering over other things?
StarlightSovereign 16 May, 2023 @ 7:09pm 
No, just hovering over floor tiles.
telardo  [author] 16 May, 2023 @ 6:19pm 
@StarlightSovereign Do you have any item or tab selected when pressing the key? If so, it should do nothing.
StarlightSovereign 16 May, 2023 @ 4:36pm 
So I put this in my modlist my girlfriend and I are using and we're not able to get it to work. We rebound the key in the menu (in my case, to 5 and in her case to T) and when we press this button, nothing happens.

I can provide whatever is helpful, modlist, logs, etc, but since Hugslib logs aren't working, you tell me what is useful to you and I'll provide it!

Thank you for this mod. We really hope to get it working because it's something we'd really love to use! Thanks!:starite:

Thank you so much for this mod
telardo  [author] 22 Mar, 2023 @ 12:43pm 
@synister I've pushed a potential fix for it.
synister 21 Mar, 2023 @ 5:12pm 
Also here is my mod list if needed.

pastebin (dot) com/VJahfW9q

With regards to the error I'm not sure exactly how to reproduce it, it seemingly begins to occur at random with the only fix being a full game restart.
synister 21 Mar, 2023 @ 5:09pm 
Steam deleted my link and my error message is too long to include as a comment, heres the link again with (dots).

pastebin (dot) com/gFHNngyt
synister 18 Mar, 2023 @ 2:20pm 
I'm getting an error every time I try to use the pipette tool, the error that pops up each time is shown here: {LINK REMOVED}
飞天一号 24 Feb, 2023 @ 2:08pm 
刚刚又开了个档试了一下,在选的时候再按一下Q键矩形就填满的,抱歉打扰了:steamthumbsup:
飞天一号 24 Feb, 2023 @ 1:55pm 
爱不释手,但又和Designator Shapes冲突,划出来的范围是一个菱形,每次都要重新选那个矩形命令,多了一步操作,和我用来更快捷操作的本意矛盾了,好难受:steamsad:。还是要感谢大佬!
telardo  [author] 18 Feb, 2023 @ 9:39pm 
Build copy command is added to the start of the queue now. Due to some technical difficulties, this feature won't work for floors and carpets.
man_utdmasta 15 Nov, 2022 @ 5:22am 
+1 to what @Mute said, would be a great addition, especially for things like floors etc.
Mute 30 Oct, 2022 @ 10:42pm 
Would it be possible to add "build same" to the cycle when pressing Q on a building?

telardo  [author] 17 Sep, 2022 @ 8:07pm 
@RedPine However, this mod doesn't touch anything about zooming. When you selected something the Q shortcut will correctly rotate it. By the way, you can rebind the hotkey both in xml and game keyboard configuration.
RedPine 17 Sep, 2022 @ 6:27pm 
If you are unable to zoom in or out without having a menu open or selecting something, try removing this mod.

Also, this mod does not appear to have any way to change it's keybinding, which is a problem as Q/E are the default rotate keybindings. There's no config or XML that I can find.

HSK能用吗?
Kokorocodon 10 Apr, 2022 @ 9:49pm 
Quite intuitive, easy to use, very well made. Shaves off a lot of time clicking tabs and with proper time becomes second nature, leaving you to wonder why it's not in vanilla...
hoho5999 5 Apr, 2022 @ 9:14pm 
貌似不支持Q键切换下一个Allow Tools命令?比如批量允许、批量斩杀。。。

@g0ldheart_rr You can rebind it in game options > Keyboard configuration > Ingame Global > Pipette tool
