This is a progression of the original mod "BlueprintSignals" by GaticusHax.
Since the author is absent and I improved the mod a bit but no new version got released, I release it here.
See below for a list of changes compared to the original mod.
Blueprint Signals (continued)
Blueprint Signals will read a blueprint (or book) and convert it to a set of constant combinators containing
the items to build the blueprint (or book) as signals. The combinators can then be connected to a circuit
or logistic network to request the blueprint items for construction.
Instructions for a single blueprint
While holding a blueprint (or book), press CTRL+ALT+S
(configurable) to convert it.
Alternatively press the shortcut button while holding the blueprint.
A new blueprint containing one or more constant combinators will be generated, holding all the
unique signals for the blueprint items and counts. If holding a blueprint book, this will also work
and will only convert the active selected blueprint.
Instructions for a complete blueprint book
Works the same way as for a single blueprint, but the key sequence is CTRL+SHIFT+ALT+S
(configurable).
Alternatively press the shortcut button while holding the blueprint book.
Instead of converting only the active blueprint it will convert all blueprints and nested books.
