Provides an ingame technology browser.
It is a help system.
All places where a Game object is referenced are listed with this object.
For example, for an item, all recipes that process it and that create it are displayed. If it is an assembly machine, all recipes that this machine can process are also displayed, and so on.
This is the general principle of this mod.
The displayed icons also show dynamic information. For example, a recipe shows whether it has already been researched and if so, how much handcrafting is possible for the player with the available inventory.
Also, you can trigger certain actions directly from the help system.
- Research
- Handcrafting
- Pipette
There is a reminder panel with optional automatic research and (hand-)crafting.
There is also a history.
It is a tribute to the help system of Evospace. I hope factorio players will like it a lot as well.
The "remidor panel" is inspired by the one from Satisfactory.
