Refineries list stored ore being processed/queued as ingots, not ore.
What the subject line says. In the terminal screen for a refinery, at the bottom, a queue is listed. If you put 1000 cobalt ore in to the refinery, it lists 1000 cobalt ingots as the queue.

Should probably say ore.

It just prints the blueprint's name, and keen named it like that :P

And it makes sense as that's what it's producing.

Either way I'm not sure how to improve it without going overboard in size, since blueprints can require and result in multiple items.
If I were to say "Refines X into Y" I would also have to include a list like:

Refines:
- A
- B
- C
Into:
- X
- Y
- Z

And also the queue itself is a list of things so it would be quite the hierarchy xD

Ah, I see how that could be a problem.

Any chance it could instead work like the Assembler?

Assembler lists <count of output product> <name of output product>

While the refinery seems to list <count of input product> <name of output product>. Could the refinery list the count of the output instead? (Yes, I recognize that there are many different possible counts, so it may not be doable.)

Well I've updated the mod to show output amount for refinery queue only if there's 1 result and 1 required item (because I need to divide output by input to get actual amount since it works on a ratio, but I don't know how it handles it with multiple required items xD).
For anything else (on refinery only) it doesn't show amount, only BP name.

And a few other stuff, see change notes :P
