    Yet another simple and useful idea.

    Basically the only way we can connect things now is by [C]selecting the master and [V]connecting slaves.
    It works fine until you get yourself to logic. Just believe me: it is incredibly annoying to hook up many blocks to one AND/OR block as you need to go here and there every time, essentially squaring the amount of work you need to do. My idea is simple: some kind of reverse connection -- select a slave and connect it to masters. Probably the most usage here is with logic. It'd be cool if you could also mass-connect logic block.

    Hooking up something like that takes a hell lot of time


    A good keybinding for that mode would be, I guess, Shift+[current select block button] ie Shift+C by default.

    Nice and simple. So simple it might be implemented already without us knowing it.
    Who could be against it?

    Very good idea. Where's a Council member when you need one? ;)

    Seems like it's going to be forgotten if someone doesn't post on this thread.
    Oh well...

    This was something I had though about yesterday as I was dealing with logic on screen. Better still would be the option to simply select an object and see what it is slaved to. I will certainly try and make this a feature when we look at logic again.

    Yes, PLEASE give us a visual indication of what something is slaved to.
