This is just some more or less organized random ideas just to put it down there:
[x] Monitor all mining drills to see resources / minute
[x] Monitor burners to see resources / minute, and productivity level
[x] Monitor assembling factories, see resources / minute, and what cost is mostly lacking, and how long it has been since it did anything.
[ ] Click on a resource to see the distribution of it, where it goes, and where it comes from
[ ] Later on add to see the full distribution chain of stuff, for example: Automation of Science Pack 2: transport belt INPUT_STATS, inserter INPUT_STATS. And check this recursively to find out the root cause, which might be that a Burner Miner Drill has no coal, or that a factory is not getting enough iron wheels.
[ ] Later on add support for isolated parts of transportation belts, inserters, logistic networks, etc.
Expected time left until something runs out (whether it is items from a chest, or from logistic network, or from a parent product, or from iron ore)
INPUT_STATS:
Items / Minute (or second)
Last item retrieved at, second to last received at
Store all occasions of items retrieved for statistics?
QUESTIONS:
What to do with items that are lying in chests?
How to handle requester chests?
