Satisfactory's blueprints
Is there a place where examples of using Satisfactory's own blueprints are posted?
For example, what are they for collecting items on the ground, or on conveyors, and how to use them?

but I think you will have more success with "drone hub" style buildings that act as dedicated places for them to launch from, do pick up, drop off, etc

could you be more specific? I assume you mean using satisfactory's existing assets and not the blueprinting building system
the answer is most likely "no, outside of looking at specific mods' source code" though, if you mean existing assets
What I want to achieve:
A manufacturer builds a drone (or a robot) that comes out on the conveyor
From there it flies away (or walks): for that I need to know how to simulate the 'E' to remove it from the conveyor
Then it will destroy itself into as many items as it took to build it
So I need to be able to recover its debris ('E' again)
it sounds like you want drones to operate directly on the belts themselves? I think you will have a lot of trouble implementing it this way, there are tons of performance optimizations on belts that you will be fighting to make this happen. for example, with the Inserters mod, it was basically not possible to have items enter the belt if not through a merger/building output. although it was possible to remove stuff from belts. and the code has changed since then because even more optimizations have been done
you will almost certainly need some involved C++ code to make this work

If this isn't the mod you were looking for, try a different spelling.
you can find the source code here if you want to see how it used to be done

Thanks but I can't compile this project (too old ?)
So there is no way to simulate the 'E' on an item via blueprint?
So indeed I will use my drone Hub
yes, that's why the mod is not updated, because systems have changed
