TL;DR
I'd like to be able to see how much of a certain item is created through spoilageWhat?
Currently on my first playthrough in Gleba, and I wanted to see how much Iron ore was created through the spoilage mechanism. However, the production graph showed that I wasn't producing any Iron ore at all. Instead, I had to use the Consumption graph to get an idea of the amount of Iron ore produced, and directly smelted.Why?
Spoilage is a core method of item creation in the game. I'm sure there's mods that will be using the mechanism too. Being able to see how much items are created through the process could help design or optimize factories.(I did search the forums and found a Bug report about this. However it has not been picked up, so I assume it's by design. As such, I am filing this as a Feature Request instead)
