Newb question - how to build structures and devices in debug mode

[Major SNAFU]

Please see my follow up questions a few posts down.  Thanks.

 

Hi all,

I have debug mode working an I have done some initial playing around with various things like painting resources, etc.

But what I really wanted to use it for was as a test bed to try experimental builds of various things to try and understand how to build things 'survival mode'.

But all of the build options on the lower left are all greyed out and have the red resource required.

How do you make all of the structural items, machines and components available in debug mode?  What am I missing?

thanks,

SNAFU

Edit:  I figured it out.

Press Strg+F4
You can view keybinds in the settings.

For US PCs it is Ctrl F4.  Honestly, the debug keybindings are a bit of a mess and it is hard to find things in.  Usually it is faster to do a search on the forums or online.

Thanks for the replies.  I came back to edit my first post to say I had figured it out and there were already 2 responses with the answers.

 

Great forum.

okay - follow up question:

 

1) How to you force a switch in debug mode w/o needing duplicants?

2) how do you fill a coal/hydrogen/etc generator or a water sieve or whatever with the required materials so it will run without needing duplicants to service them?
