What do you guys think about plates and Item casings?
In my opinion, using plates in crafting recipes is just making it overcomplicated. You used to make things like circuits or mixed metal ingots with iron ingots (and bronze and tin ingots), where now you need plates.
Using plates doesn't even add to realism.
I quite like the idea with the metal former regarding making cables, so you have a quick way of doing it (cutter), but you also have a more complicated, but more efficient way (metal former).
I also like the idea of using plates in reactor components, because reactors are supposed to be complicated to set up and maintain.
But I don't like making even the basic stuff soooo complicated by just adding more and more crafting/machine steps required to craft basic things like a circuit or even cables.
What do you guys think about it?
