Normali(s|z)ing Ores and Materials
#9
I feel like if anything, ore processing needs to be simplified, as currently it's a mess of old and new code of drag+drop.
I like where you're going with the quality prefix, but lets take it a step further. 
I'll try keep my post concise: 

Let's take 2 examples of bohrum. 

Crap Bohrum

Good Bohrum
[Image: AsteroidBohrum3.png]   --> x1[Image: hrBvwNA.png]--> x10 [Image: SteelBar.png]

What's changed? The MAIN change is that Bohrum tile will always yield a single bohrum ore, no matter what. What's different about it is the quality of the ore will dictate what amount of usable processed material will come out of it, in the above example crap bohrum ore will yield 5 material, good will yield 10. 

The usable processed "bar" has no quality prefix, only the ore. The "bar" is stackable, but because of the quality prefix removed upon processing, this vastly simplifies the process without the need for much organization. 

As far as quality effecting pricing.. I'm lukewarm. Technically if good quality ore produces a large amount of material, then good quality ores when refined will sell for more by natural default
