Setting output rates #29

Closed kwyntes closed 2 years ago

kwyntes commented 2 years ago

Just found out about this tool, maybe I'm using it wrong or something, but I would like to be able to instead of setting an amount of assembling machines, to be able to set the output rate for the item. So as an example: I would create a node for blue science, and instead of setting the node assemblers to some value I have to calculate myself, I would just enter "100/min" and it would calculate the amount of assemblers required for that rate and use that to calculate values for the other nodes. Also important to note is that when the rate is lower than what a single assembler can produce, it should be a decimal number so that when I enter "30/min" for something that can produce 60/min it would set the assembler count to 0.5 (quite obvious but just be clear).

Thanks for the awesome tool, it really looks like a LOT of work was put into this!

Nevermind, I just realised I can use output and passthrough nodes for this.
