Game calculators that answer the actual question

Every game has numbers that the game itself will not do for you. Factorio tells you a recipe takes 6 seconds, but not how many assembling machines that means for 60 advanced circuits a minute, or how much copper ore the whole chain eats. Arknights gives you five recruitment tags and no way to know which operators they can actually produce. Persona 5 lets you fuse anything, but not which combination gets you a specific persona at the lowest level.

These are the gaps these tools fill. Each one takes the input you already know — a target rate, a tag set, a persona — and walks the underlying data to give you the output you were about to work out on paper.

Every calculator here is generated from the game's own data — recipe prototypes, recruitment tables, fusion charts — not typed in by hand. That matters more than it sounds: when we first hand-entered a subset of Factorio recipes, two out of twenty-one were wrong. A calculator that is off by 10% is worse than no calculator, because you build the factory before you find out.

When a game updates, the data is regenerated and the tests re-run, so the numbers on the page are the numbers currently in the game.

The plan is one calculator per game, grouped by genre — crafting and production games in one place, gacha and party builders in another. If a calculator is listed above as coming soon, the data work is in progress rather than the page being a placeholder for something vague.
