Factorio Forums

At the bottom of a tooltip, total raw is listed showing number of iron, copper, steel plates. It appears that as soon as any oil products are involved, these items aren't broken down anymore.


Ballparking the math, it looks like the Processing Unit isn't broken down at all. The same goes for items that have batteries, explosives or electric engine units as components.

This is not a bug because you can't make these items in your invenotry you need a machine and factorio only shows raw materials that you can craft.

Ah yes, I suppose that makes sense when you look at it that way I was trying to figure out all the required raws for a factory setup, guess I'll have to do a bit more thinking for that
