Is a reverse recipe lookup possible? It would be very handy for beginners trying many of the complex mods to find their way.

1. Player 1 starts a new multiplayer game
2. Player 1 presses ctrl+e to open FNEI gui
3. Player 1 clicks right arrow in the FNEI gui to scroll to page two of the recipe list
4. Player 2 joins game
5. Player 2 presses ctrl+e to open FNEI gui

The game then desyncs, player 2 rejoins and FNEI is open on page 2, even though player 2 never clicked the scroll arrow.

I had a brief skim through the FNEI source code, my guess is the fnei.rc.recipe_page variable needs to be stored per player.

Thank you for your report. I'll try to fix the problem in the next update.

As for players seeing what other looks up in fnei, it doesn't need even to be after desync, just let two players open fnei, and page will jump for other, when first navigates. i had feeling, that shared variables for navigation might be source of problem, but didn't check code yet, unlike @Trainwreck.

After updating to 0.0.13, this problem must be solved. Now each player has his own variables. I tested this bug a bit and the problem did not show itself.

This mod causes desync first time it is used in MP and everytime new player joins it causes desync also.

FNEI_0.0.11.zip
Is it fixed in 13?

Suggestion: some sort of minimalistic mode that will show for a given item only icons of the recipes (and their names on mouseover), but all of them at once on the same page. That will allow player to see in just a single glance how he can get an item and what does he need it for.

Edit: Would also be nice to be able to hide fluid void recipes. But this is probably getting harder to reliably detect.

seconded.

And how about a view of what can be made in this machine?

also, and i don't know how possible this is, but in playing sea block, there are machines that have no purpose. it would be great if these could be suppressed.

I should probably suggest this in sea block thread.

Trainwreck wrote:I think the recipe gui should show a list of possible unlock technologies, rather than just a single technology. An example of why this is necessary occurs in the base game when unlocking the roboport recipe. There are two possible technologies that unlock roboports, Logistics Robotics and Construction Robotics. When displaying the roboport recipe, FNEI currently only shows Logistic Robotics as the unlock technology.
