Hi,
while i totally agree that such a device could/should be into the grid with copy/paste/newblueprint
Is there, or is it planned to have a customizable shortcut to select it ? would be nice.
Or, in another hand, does factorio should support thoses buttons to be into the item hotbar ?

Edit: also, is it the desired behavior to shift clic with the remote to fire?

regards

What? there is nothing to copy/paste/newblueprint

Is there, or is it planned to have a customizable shortcut to select it ? would be nice.

there is already a shortcut

is it the desired behavior to shift clic with the remote to fire?

Your icon "FIRE" is in the group at the bottom left with the others functions like copy paste etc.
I can click on it and then use on the map, OK.
can i use my keyboard to directly use it without needing to click on the icon ?

In your modpage there is a shortcut "l" , but it doesnt work for me, and i can't find an option to change it in game.

And also: the other options in the same menu, when you hover on with your mouse, it shows the keyboard shortcut (like alt+del for delete plan)
This mod could show the same information in order to look like this: https://ibb.co/pdjrjww (image)

AH Ok, now I understand what you mean with "into the grid with copy/paste/newblueprint", you mean the shortcuts
Original there was no shortcut, You had to craft the "Targeter-Device". and use this from the quickbar. An other author wrote the shortcut and I just took it over.
Next time I work on the mod I will see if I can add a keyboard shortcut.
