Converts different rarities of science packs into common science equivalent.
common == 1
uncomon == 2
rare == 3
epic == 4
legendary == 6
How to use:
Place this blueprint, and use desired science pack as a parameter.
Connect nearby roboport with green wire to this blueprint.
On roboport, set it to Read logistic network contents.
🎉 Voalia! You can now read effective science you have stockpiled!
Room for improvement:
If your science is held on belts, you can read belt contents to get science pack amounts, this setup is not exclusive to logistic storage.
⚠️Calculated effective science of Agriculture (Gleba) packs will always be inaccurate (higher) due to spoil mechanic making them less effective!
