Alternate: Steel Coated Plate doesn't change production view #132

Open Molbork opened 6 months ago

Using this recipe, https://www.satisfactorytools.com/production?share=UfQvidGz0so3CVlkGeNp

Selected Steel Coated Plate(SCP) and it still uses the normal iron ingot to Iron Plate recipe. I deselected other alternate recipes,. also toggled SCP, and it still didn't get updated in the production view, even though it refreshes.

Hopefully this isn't user error!

Simply selecting Iron plate and the alternate SCP recipe also doesn't show it being used. https://www.satisfactorytools.com/production?share=ts8FhyF3jlejsAgsgVhZ

Hi, sorry, didn't notice this.

If you want to force a recipe, you have to unselect all the recipes (including base recipe) for given item.

Tools optimise for resource consumption, so if it doesn't choose a recipe you've selected, it's most likely because it's less resource efficient in given scenario. You can still force it by disallowing other recipes though.
