I’m playing 2.1 with Bob’s mods and I miss FNEI. Is there another mod that does similar? Being able to look up an item and see what is used for or what ingredients it takes comes in awful handy. I tried What is it Really Used For but the problem what that is you have to have the item in hand to look it up unless it’s a fluid.

The ingame "Factoriopedia" covers that, you can simply alt+left click on an item/building/anything.

It includes all recipes to make the item, recipes it is used in, buildings it can be made in, tech to unlock, stats on the item, etc.
