No research needed.

I realised it's a bit expensive... Don't you think?

Interesting Where did you get the code and license for this mod?

I did notice there are a few problems with the way you've changed the mod:

• You hard-coded all of the surface references to the default game surface so it won't work with modded surfaces
• The way the mod is written it won't work with anything other than the default player force (0.12 added support for more than the default forces)
• The way you've implemented the filters creates a lot of extra LuaItemStack objects (extra CPU time and memory cleanup to create and dispose of them)

I updated my mod for 0.12 and multi-surface + multi-force support here if you'd like to look at it.

Also if you wanted to implement filters this is how I'd recommend doing them: https://github.com/Rseding91/Item-Colle ... 27f2e63c7a
