Block Picker

Block Picker - An eyedropper for block types

Block Picker adds eyedropper functionality to block types. Press Ctrl-G while looking at any block, and you will get a build cursor for this block. Its as simple as that!

Blocks can be picked at about the same distance as they can be placed. For more control when trying to pick small blocks, like Interior Lights, you can also get out your welder or grinder, and their selected block will be picked instead.

Color and Skin will not be picked at this time. Space Engineers does not currently let mods interact with the skins much at all, and faced with these limitations, I decided it was better to leave it out entirely for now. But of course you can always press Shift-P to pick the color from the block you are looking at, as well.

Note: This may bypass research requirements, or other block building limitations. However, some care has been taken to try to support common ways of disabling blocks, to allow a wider range of usages.
