Use a resource page as a calculator start

Start with the named material, then decide whether the job is a one-time craft, a short farming session, or a repeatable production chain. For repeatable chains, open the material calculator before farming so the upstream inputs are visible.

Follow the bottleneck

If a resource page points to a calculator chain, use the material calculator before farming. If it points to a base or worker guide, solve the production system around the material rather than collecting one emergency stack and repeating the same trip later.
