Allow browsing recipes from the Remote View

Post by Hares »

TL;DR
Add a setting for browsing Recipes menu by pressing E while in remote view (instead of opening Ghost cursor menu)
Why?
Multiple reasons:
  1. Basically, it's a old habit to check recipes in a crafting tab (and that how it worked in Space Exploration's Navigation Satellite)
  2. Unlike Factoriopedia, crafting menu hides recipes you have not yet unlocked (ghost cursor hides them too)
  3. Unlike Factoriopedia, crafting menu shows you important info on-hover instead of on-click: ingredients, crafting time, made in ("ghost cursor menu shows such info, but only for "simple" recipes)
  4. Also, pressing E is way faster then opening Factoriopedia and navigating to required tab (because Alt-clicking on the ground opens that ground's page)
  5. Also, you still can ghost cursor from crafting menu by Q-picking
Fulgora is the best planet. Vulcanus needs rework. Feel free to prove me wrong.
