[2.0.55] Manual recipe crafting shows incorrect amount being crafted

[Frostblade]

The following sample recipes craft x2 items (with left click) unlike most others which craft only 1:

- Transport belt
- Rail
- Copper cable
- Underground belt

There are more of such recipes but these are sample ones to reproduce the issue.

What it means they craft x2 items is indicated by this number on mouse hover:


Therefore when left click on it to craft it, it will craft the indicated amount (2), however the bug is that this number won't be indicated in lower left corner where items are crafted, it will always show that 1 item is crafted instead of 2 (or some other value as indicated in tooltip in previous screenshot):


Expected behavior:

Lower left corner (2nd screenshot) shows actual amount being crafted as indicated on item mouse hover (2 in example of a transport belt, rail etc.)

Reproducible save file and log file are attached.

Thanks for the report however there are no bugs here.

Crafting queue does not show what items are being produced, but which recipes are being crafted, and as such it does not show that 2 transport belts are being produced, it shows transport-belt recipe is being crafted once.

If the crafting queue was showing items produced instead then it would create a lot of issues: for example if a transport-belt recipe would be requested and you would see 2 transport-belts, if you would attempt to "cancel 1" craft, it would not be possible because that would mean cancelling part of the recipe. Similarily some recipes may produce multiple items (for example a scrap-recycling) and in that case the outcome of the recipe is not known in advance and as such cannot be shown in the crafting queue.

Not a bug.

I see, didn't look at it this way, initially I though there is a bug because 1 left click produces 1 item, was wondering why it produces 2 because didn't notice the tooltip says x2.

Thank you for prompt response!
