I'm really enjoying the group system on goon chem dispensers, but there are some little things that could vastly improve their usability. Sorry if these have already been posted or are already in-game, fairly new to goon mechanics.
So as of right now (or as far as I know), you can't stack chems in a group. Let's say I make an Ammonia group by typing "nitrogen;hydrogen;hydrogen;hydrogen," it will come out as only 10u nitrogen and 10u hydrogen. Many recipes recquire lots of one chem and little of another, so this doesn't exactly help. Allowing us to stack chems, such as hydrogen;hydrogen;hydrogen for 30u of hydrogen, would solve that issue.
To give you guys an idea of how useful these could be, I'll provide an example:
- Allow groups to stack chems

- Let players input the amount of each chem they want
- Inputted chems should be produced in order, rather than all at once
To give you guys an idea of how useful these could be, I'll provide an example:
- Cryoxadone is a much needed chem for stabilizing people and healing fresh clones. Let's check out the recipe: Cryostylane + Plasma + Acetone + Unstable Mutagen. Yeah, a bit of a pain in the ass. But with the above suggestions, it could registered in a chem group as "5Water;5Plasma;5Nitrogen;5Radium;5Plasma;5Chlorine;5plasma;5oxygen." Once made into a chem group, just put the beaker in the dispenser, click the group, add 5u of oil and 5u welding fuel, and bam, cryoxadone.
