Hey folks,

I spend a few hours to make a total ingredient calculator. Happy to share the result:

You can just use the constant combinator and add whatever you want and it calculates all the ingredients that are required throughout the entire crafting tree. It has a module in there that corrects for crafts that result in multiple items automatically. For example, if you were to request 8 uranium fuel cells, it will give you the ingredients for one craft, because one craft results in 10 cells. If you request 11, it gives the ingredients for 2 crafts and so forth. The book contains a lobotomized version of the machine that illustrates the logic that I use.

It should work, checked it against some published websites (https://kirkmcdonald.github.io/calc.htm ... ircuit:f:1).

Planning to use this now to make a programmable make me anything machine...

Enjoy!
