A "Planning Mode" where new constructions are paused for finding the right layout
It's annoying when I place a new building to plan my new <raw material mining / processing / storage> complex and the drones start rushing in and building my stuff and I am not even finished with the layout and where all the inputs and outputs go.....let me place my buldings without pausing the game because I want them to keep digging.

friendly hintdrones that are setup for digging will only dig and not build
thats why you have to manually add 5 drones to the drone configuration module -

XaosThis is something I would desperately love to have. Having to demolish and rebuild because you put something in the wrong place is a massive pain. Having a "ghost" mode for buildings (that will stay in that mode until you choose to build them) would add a lot of versatility and replay ability to the game. And also, please ensure that the port labels are always shown in planning mode. This would be number 1 on my list or most requested features.

XaosAdding to this, the ability to copy-cut-paste groups of buildings in planning mode would also be really awesome.

RayWould be nice if you could save a load blocks of this design similar. It's one thing to have a planning mode, it's another thing entirely to be able to save and load the designs once made game after game.

JonJonI have been surprised there is no blueprint feature. For these types of games this is pretty standard.

A planning mode would be a good step. -

ZajneeI think this could be "easily" done by allowing a "level zero priority", so if the Priority of the building was set to zero, the drones would not bring materials or build the building - that way the interface is already in the game.
