The mod is awesome, really!
The hotkey is such a god bless feature. But sometimes, its useful to actually be able to see the multiple available recipes to choose the correct one instead of just shifting trough them. Specially if the machines are already connected to pipes and wrong recipes will cause havoc in the pipes...

If we could have a shortcut to show/hide them would be awesome but I would be happy with just a mod setting, so who ever wants, can have the mess of recipes visible or hidden.

Good point, good idea. Added in new version 1.1.0

It has to be a startup mod setting and not a runtime change, as the recipes are being hidden at creation with the "hidden" flag and the game must be re-started to access this.

Even if I find a way to do it at runtime, recipes are stored across the force, so in MP it'd be hidden for everyone or noone and changing it would reload all recipes across everyone - it sounds like a bad idea, but I might keep looking into it xD.

IMO best method to avoid havoc in the pipes would be to remove the pipes before changing the recipe ;D

I dont think you are able to avoid the setting as a startup setting.

And...sometimes, removing the pipes is an even bigger havoc :P
My case was, that I was updating my map from 0.14 to 0.15. The pipes were there for weeks now, I had no idea anymore what or where they did go. I just needed to re-set the recipes :P

But anyway, thanks for the new setting :)
