Make the quality chance tooltips on recipes be visible, without changing the chances

Post by MrSmoothieHuman »

TL;DR
I feel like it should be possible to be able to see the chances of getting a quality item on a recipe, without having to change the chances.

What?
Currently, the only way to see the chances of quality outputs on a buildings tooltip is to change the chances of getting one of the qualities, or add a new quality. I suggest that this should be a toggleable setting, or be activatable via the API. If it was a setting, it'd be nice to able to set it to different states? 'Always on' for it to always appear, 'Only when nessecary' for it to only appear in the same way it does right now (if quality chances are changed), and of course 'Always off' :D
For reference, this is what im talking about:

Why?
I finally got around to playing space age, and finally started quality grinding - and while i do have the 'Quality: x.x%' to show me how much quality my building has, it'd be way more intuitive (and fun for me, personally) to know the exact chances of getting each type of quality.
It'd also help decide where it'd be best to put my quality modules, as i spent a while deciding where to put them to get the best chances of a higher tier item; and this being visible would make it way easier to make that decision! :lol:
