I love it. It would be better if you make this maximum times to research programmable. You see, some mod breaks productivity limitation to above 300% and even 2.1G!

Can you link that mod? I am computing productivity research level based on set max productivity, but perhaps I'm doing it too early.

OK, https://mods.factorio.com/mod/UnlimitedProductivityFork

Yeah, I am doing it pretty early. Will fix in about10 minutes - will need to move my mod actions to final fixes and add an optional dependency to this mod.

Should be fixed now.
Please note that with UnlimitedProductivityFork, there are tons of technologies because every recipe allows productivity (including recycler ones, for instance).

Yes , there's too many techs with hidden recipes which pollute our tech trees. See below:

It's a good idea to hide recipes that cannot be use in machines.

I mean, all of those are valid recycler recipes.

Maybe add setting to disable recycling/barrel empty and fill shown in research ?

Yeah, that's a good solution. Added a setting.

Thanks, work like a charm.
