Mining Buildings / Alternate mining mode

Post by fessoric »

It would be nice, when mining active buildings, if there was a way to automatically wait until the current cycle finished and prevent the next cycle from starting.

This would be similar to the way running while right-clicking pauses you until the current building has been mined, and both pauses would apply as needed. The time it takes for the mining operation to complete (once it starts) would even give the output inserter time to grab the last product if it is ready for immediate pickup.

CTRL-Right Mouse appear to be unassigned in this context, and would make a good candidate.

I would even flip it around and make this new mining mode the default mode and make CTRL+RMB be the immediate mining mode (maybe with an option to restore the old default). I would also disable the mining of flying bots in this new mode.
