Basic Hydraulic Miscalculation?

[LumberingTroll]

A single Basic Hydraulic is showing needing all four t1 ores and 515 of each of them, this seems to be grossly inflating the price. I believe it is calculating with the minimum required to make a batch of each pure resource required, not exactly useful for determining the actual cost of an item.

it is the actual cost of producing only 3 which is the minimum. if you are budgeting for how much ore you have to mine to produce a single hydraulic the calculation is correct, it just happens to be the same amount you would have to mine to produce more.

if you want the amortized cost , you have to put in the amount you want to amortize over, say 10000.

Perhaps some way of showing excess/waste would be appropriate though.
