Single player pane

The right pane is titled "My blueprints." Dragging a blueprint or blueprint book to this pane makes the blueprints available to the player in other games (single or multiplayer). The search button can be used to quickly find a particular shared blueprint.

Dragging a blueprint book from either pane makes a copy available for use in the player's inventory.
