Assembly Machine Recipe Disabling: Quick and Easy

[MalContentFL]

I was watching a Factorio playthrough and I noticed the guy always had to open his all of his Assembly machines and remove the recipes manually. What if pressing Z while hovering over a Logistics Chest, Assembly Machine, Smart Inserter, etc would remove its filter or recipe. Pressing X while hovering would disable the current task (In case of overflow).

Hmmm a key shortcut to clear any entity of all and every recipes and conditions it has might be handy from time to time.

As for disabling current task... is there any equivalent in the game?

A way to do it more quickly than to go into all of the entities, is to remove everything from just one and then copy that one to the others.

Works ok if you are talking of one type of entity. But if ya do that for assembly line consistinf og: assembler, smart inserters, requester chests and provider chests it might be too long to copy all the stuff

If you have provider chests you have robots. Just deconsturct everything and rebuild with proper blueprint.
