It is very difficult or impossible to create a non-contiguous group of blocks.
100 hours in game, and the only way I can create a group with Ion drives and Large Ion drives is by renaming all the Larges to be Ion - Large so it creates a contiguous list on the left. I know that LB will allow me to select a list of blocks on the left side.
I bet there is some combination of left stick and d-pad that might back this possible, but it is super unintuitive and its making most of the testers connect a M&K to their XBox. Please give this some love.
I like this feedback
Hi,
Block groups are fixed and created based on usage/type of the blocks. It's not configurable. We can consider this change in the future.
Thanks for the feedback

I feel the same way. I rename everything “ShipName-Part” so the items can be organized for making groups later but I ran into the same problem you have with using small and large thrusters. The grouping with controllers only works if the group of parts are next to each other, by default the large and small thrusters aren’t. So I have to rename them all to “ShipName-Atmos L Thurster” and “ShipName-Atmos S Thurster’ to be able to put them in a group.

You can literally use the filter in the top left to type “Ion” and then everything on that list will show all of your ion thrusters (large and small).Then it’s as simple as drag and group without having to view anything else. Or am I missing your complaint?

Agree with you guys! Also the black/white list from a sorter is almost impossible to deal with, because of this mechanism.

Agree with the topic. Note: while holding LB to select the next item, if you also hold RB it will skip the next item you scroll down to; not saying this is a good experience but with a little practice it works in a pinch without all the renaming. Suggestion: the A button for 'select' is redundant on this screen, scrolling down on D-pad effectively selects the next item anyway. I vote to change A to select/deselect for multiselect support, would be far simpler. Thanks.

Thank you thank you. I've tried using the RB button, but when you have selected a block, you can't see if its 'checked' or 'unchecked' so if you hold RB and move to the next item, I'm never sure if it will leave that blocked checked or not until I scroll off of it. Which leads to a bunch of RB + Down, RB+ Up, RB+Down, to make sure it gets set correctly. The best advice I've seen here is Kevin's about typing in "Ion" and then being able to use LB on the whole list.

I tried the RB+LB technique and it worked for me. But definitely it's not the best solution. I think we need a way to select/deselect the blocks from the list by pressing a button, like it was told here. In general, there´s a lot of UX that need to be rethought in the game, since Xbox users (generally) don´t use mouse and keyboard, for example, the blocks three, the white/blacklist in sorters, etc....

Would love to see this option but don't remove the option to hold it down though!

Hold LB
Tap RB to select/deselect individual blocks.
Hold RB to select all of that type of block.
Also add an option to "Save To Existing Group" under Save/Delete instead of having to add all and re-type group name.

Hi guys,
There were multiple improvements to the block selection in terminal screen released in the recent 197 update.
Moving around using D-pad (and even LT and RT to change tabs) does not deselect the selection.
We hope you enjoy it!
