11 years ago Actually, I might add a button that restores the chip, because it would be buggy to eat the chip and then ask for another blank one.
GUI layout:
- Option 1: the main inventory should be focused from left to right (except for the input/output slots), and the ingredients will be displayed on the bottom (on the description box). On that box will be the button to return the chip. Note: the ingredients will be shown as the total, not based on it's grid layout.
- Option 2: The main inventory will be on the middle. The description box will be to the left and the input/output slots to the right. You will get the chip when you click on the recipe. Note: the ingredients will be show as their position on the grid.
On both scenarios, the description box will tell the amount of recipes stored, unless the user hovers a recipe. In that case, the ingredients will be shown instead.
Chips might take up a lot of space on chests, which was not intended on my design of this mod.
I will add a way to store an infinite* amount of chips on some sort of library, which would consume the chip. The recipes can then be extracted by placing an empty chip on the input slot.
GUI wise:
*Infinite: the earlier versions of this will probably just have the amount that fits on the screen.
