Hello Kirk

Hope you are well and enjoying update 3. I have a feature request for you.

In the settings page for when we are selecting the alternate recipes. Please can we have some visual indicator for which recipes; -Produce the highest product per minute (Minimise the number of building needed). -Most resource efficient (Minimise the amount of resources or reduce complexity of resources needed to make a specific product).

We can generally tell which recipes are better then others but its a struggle to keep having to remember which does which, especially for those that haven't been unlocked yet and when those recipes get altered.

Product per minuet is easy to identify as this is just a function of {number product out} / {time to process} and is even shown in game. I ask for this as this is printed information in game but cannot be seen in the calculator.

For identifying the resource efficiency, this could be a function of {Sum of awesome sink score of all ingredients} / {Number of product out}. I ask for this as there are situations in which the server I'm part of needs to be very resource efficient. Specifically in terms of the uranium processing to maximum the amount of nuclear waste...I mean fuel rods...yea...fuel rods.

Kind regards Owen
