After I select an item to craft in an assembling machine, it displays the set of components needed to craft that item. The improvement I'd like to see is that just under each component icon is the count of them that are required for each item to be crafted.

When assembly are active and work at 100% check the number and divide it by 2 or you can check in your handcraft panel.

Moved to Ideas and Suggestions. You can already see that information if you hover over the output slot. I don't think it's very useful to always display the required amounts below the components, it could confuse beginners more than it helps and clutter the UI for experienced users.

@daniel34 Thanks for the reply, I had not noticed that hovering over the output slot shows the required quantities. That works great.

This is indeed a point that it is not obvious enough to see that the output slot can be hovered for extended functionality. I remember back to 2014, where I also missed this, until I accidentally hovered over this.

Ya this also alluded me until I saw someone on youtube do it.
