External tools to design production chains?
My fork was the first Github one which is 90% work from another developer: https://github.com/Rybadour/Foreman

Is there an Angels+bobs/Seablock calculator akin to something like kirkmacdonald for vanilla?
Currently I am stuck in VS creating my own version of the foreman app in order to get it working 100% with seablock (or any mod configuration) and factorio 1.1+.

Bob's & Angel's: For which metals do people typically have direct refining?
Also do I understand correctly that you are not the original author of https://github.com/Rybadour/Foreman? If you're doing significant changes, you might want to sync with the original author (or fork :P) and start committing things in smaller chunks.
Do you mean https://github.com/Rybadour/Foreman? Wow, I haven't seen it before, but I have been thinking of something like that for a long time! I've been using Omnigraffle to manually massage a graph built from extracted recipes, but it's a very crude solution. I dream that one day somebody will build a graphical helmod, with a full graph structure support and flexible enough to help one conquer the complexity of a mod like seablock...

Applying a tech research cost multiplier to a Seablock run
Using a planner like YAFC, Foreman, Helmod, and Factory Planner is highly recommended. Also, the following mods are recommended for a megabase needed to finish a high-multiplier game:

Py, but at work.
I would give foremana shot. Great for breaking down those brainmelt recipes

Fresh meat to the grinder
Planning tools/mods come in many shapes and sizes. I personally like Helmod but it took a while to learn it. There is also Factory Planner. Or external tools like Foreman or YAFC.

(Space Exploration) Am I the only one who finds it impossible to plan out a build without a clear visualization of the production chain like this? And why is it impossible to find charts or tools like this?
Adding one more: Foreman
I assume a tool like Foreman which loads Factorio data could theoretically load another game's data if it's converted to Factorio data.

- First S.E. run and WOW it’s a bit intimidating - this is how I visualized all the intermediaries/machinery for Utility Science
