Picking Blueprints from library shouldnt download

Hey,
The thing is, if you pick blueprint books from the library and use it, then drop it, you will receive a copy in your inventory. Im not sure what others think it should do ,but i think this automatic download is pretty redundant, since you already used the book. And the library seems realldy accessible to me. If you pick from the library again, you will receive another copy lolool! Not sure how that develops tho.

Place to talk anyway.

Maybe it's so you can share your blueprints with friends? (Haven't tried it y

I think the intention was that you only download from the global library once. And then use it from your inventory as before.

But with the library in place, you can use em from there. Better yet, in the library the Books actually have a name, and the blueprints become distinctive and easier to use. Whereas in your inventory they dont.

Which if assuming no other changes made makes the library superior, or so it seems from my little plays yet. And so it begins to become annoying if constantly creating dupes in the inventory.

But you don't always want that. What if the library worked similar to a second inventory?

This would be ideal!
No more duplication and no more occupied inventory slot.

Well i noticed there are different opinions on this. Some people like me dont want blueprints to duplicate without intend. The other group wants an easier way to delete blueprints instead ,much because they reproduce infinitely. *shrugs*

Thanks aober93 for finding the other threads.
I moved it to frequently suggested.

I think I should make an own thread for suggestions around the blueprint-book, cause the number of suggestion around that new feature is long.
