The Java app can do it. It'll also tell you total labor hours required per structure, too -- handy if you want a streamlined setup (way too much for me, heh).

A breakdown down to the very basic raw materials needed for the project.

If anyone knows of anything capable to providing this breakdown please post it here. Thanks.
I just realised that the 'Recipe Calculator' option in the Tools menu on http://www.tradersoftheburningsea.com/ will do exactly what you want - type in the recipe name (it'll pop up a list of suggestions, just pick the right one) and it gives a full breakdown of everything needed, from raw materials on up, broken down by structure type. It's very cool.

Hope that helps.

I tried it but I enter a recipe, select a port, press the buttin SUBMIT at bottom of page and......... nothing happens.

I can see a message at the bottom of screen saying that a page was generated in X seconds but I can't find this page nowhere.

I don't get no brakdown or anything else at all.
This calculator seems not producing anything at all.

Given your problems with several other sites, I'd seriously suggest looking at your browser security settings, as it works fine for me - I don't even need to select a port, just type the first few letters of the recipe ('post', for example), then select the one I want ('Recipe: 'Postillionen' Frigate', to continue the example) from the autocomplete list and voila, all the materials are listed by structure.

The 'submit' button at the bottom of the page is for comments, you don't need to click it for the recipes.
