Consider implementing something like the Helptab mod to this game.  https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=946365802&searchtext=helptab

It shows details that you need without spoiling the game.  While wiki is helpful, it does show spoilers, also tabbing out is inconvenient.

A new player will research devilstrand, yet they don't know how long it would take to grow.  They don't know you need level 10 to grow it. They don't know the benefits until they have the item. Many items are like this. Maybe they simply want to craft an item but forget which workbench or materials are needed. You're pushing players into research. You want them to contemplate which route they'll take yet they lack the info they need without experience or a guide. Even experience players deal with these probelms since things often change in updates.

This also works with mods. So this is extremely useful when they're adding a lot of content.
