Add a (Production - Consumption) Graph

[ssilk]

There is now a mod, that implements it:

https://mods.factorio.com/mod/production-potential

I can really recommend it.

BTW: A somehow related mod

There is now a mod, that implements it:

Did you just necro a 3 year old thread to post a link to a mod that - by it's own description - does something completely different from what the @OP wanted.

_____
Edit: OK, I tried them both.

https://mods.factorio.com/mod/production-potential

Has a nice gui, but shows something completely different than what the thread is about. Might use it anyway.

https://mods.factorio.com/mod/production-monitor

This can actually show what the @OP wanted. Sadly the gui is really minimal.

@Eridactor: I stumbled accidentially over that post, and thought it would be a good idea to add, that there are mods, that does it (because I think it will not come into vanilla).

And Indeed, when pasting I mixed both mods up, because they have similar names.
Should look as follows:

There is a mod, that implements it:

BTW: A somehow new and related mod

I can really recommend it.

+1 .. some type of controlled combining of graphs makes perfect sense, suggestions above are illustrative

the way it is now is a nice start but can be easily improved. Filter should save as well

Hello everyone,

Some information in advance: This text was written in German and translated into English with Google Translator.
So now to my suggestion for improvement in the game. If I open the production statistics with "P", there are the produced goods on the left and the consumed goods on the right. It has happened to me again and again that I have overlooked an item in consumption that has a higher consumption rate than a production rate. Here one could implement a view that the consumption rate and the production rate are superimposed, or even better, divide both values ​​and show a positive production value or a negative production value.


Example:


production
iron plate 20K/min

consumption
iron plate 15K/min

My suggestion combines:
Production | Consumption | Difference
iron plate 20k/min | 15K/min | +5K/min


or


production
iron plate 15/min

consumption
iron plate 20K/min

My suggestion combines:
Production | Consumption | Difference
iron plate 15k/min | 20 K/min | -5K/min



What do you think? is it possible to implement something like this in the game?
