Satisfactory Helper is a really nice mod and help a lot when you want to see how you can make a specific item and what you can do with dose item exactly. Despite everything, I think there is still a way to improve the interface to be much more practical.
The bigger issue I think right now:
For certain items used for build a lot of thing, it can be really difficult to see what recipes you can do with that specific item.
To show that, I have here the perfect example, here is a screenshot of what I see when I look for concrete:
I can scroll for literally 5 minutes trying to find what recipes made on a machine use concrete!!
The solution for that big issue, I think the Build Gun Categories should always be on the total bottom of the list, because 95% of the time, what you want to see with Satisfactory Helper is all the recipes where that items is used in for your production, and not what you can build with it.
The possibility of minimizing recipes from certain machines can be nice too.
When you press on Alt or Windows key on your keyboard the search field is automatically reset and you loose what you looking for. Nice, I want to do Alt+Tab or The Windows Key, question to switch window and search something on internet, and I have to go back and do type again what I looking for...
Adding filter question to hide buildings from the list, or just remove them from that list (Sincerely, if I want to build something I always look the material needed to build them on the build menu, never on Satisfactory Helper.). So right now this just add 1000 of lines on the list for nothing (Or at least, make the items always display at the top of the list to help find the items we can search for).
Adding items/build icons on the list, question to add a bit of visual and avoided that we have to read every line to find what we can look for.
I hope this list can help you making a better mod. For sure, this is just somes suggestions, you don't have to do it if you don't want or doesn't think this is really usefull.
