Hello,

I have a question about the Total raw info given for some recipes. I saw when looking up the recipe for Power armor MK2 that in total raw the amounts were given in a number followed by the letter k, standing for times thousand, now I wanted to know the exact amounts. So I tried to calculate them and it resulted in the same amounts as given in the recipe, except for the time one. The time states it takes 19.3k time, but my calculations say it should be 47037.5 or 47.0k.

Could someone explain this to me?

I can only guess, and my guess is that your math is off.
Likely you're not accounting for multiple outputs, like sulfur's 5:5, or copper wire's 2:1.
Also possible is that you've skipped furnace production times, or other times that are similarly unavailable to the player to hand craft.
If your figures for the costs other than time are correct, and only time is off, then I've got no idea.

There is also a difference between brutto and netto (I think we need both: https://forums.factorio.com/forum/vie ... 973#p32973 )
