Productivity loosing bar after recipe change

Post by MBas »

It has always been the case that changing recipes resets your productivity bar progress. However, now that we can change recipes via the network—and especially with the productivity research—you still won't want to use automated recipe swap for items like asteroid crushing unless you've set up complex combinator logic to prevent recipe swapping until at least some progress is made.

Would it be possible for each machine to remember the progress bar for each recipe and continue where it left off when switching back? Without this feature, productivity boosts are nearly unusable for recipes like smelting, asteroid crushing, or anything benefiting from productivity. This has become a bigger issue than it was in the base game.
