Your Proposal

While looking through the laser engraver recipes and which lenses are used for which wafers, I noticed there were some weird combinations for the different tiers of doped wafers. Here's what the current recipe combinations are, along with the quantity of wafer produced:

Silicon Glowstone Naquadah Europium Americium
Blue -- PIC (1) PIC (4) -- QPIC (1)
Cyan RAM (1) RAM (4) RAM (8) SSoC (64) --
Green ULPIC (2) ULPIC (8) SSoC (16) RAM (16) RAM (32)
Orange SSoC (1) SSoC (4) ASoC (1) NPIC (1) NPIC (4)
Red ILC (1) ILC (4) ILC (8) ASoC (2) ASoC (4)
White CPU (1) CPU (4) CPU (8) -- --
Yellow LPIC (1) LPIC (4) SoC (1) SoC (4) SoC (8)

As you can see, RAM uses 2 different colors of lenses, SSoC uses 3 different, ASoC uses 2, etc. Doesn't make much sense.

Your Goal

Rearranging these would make more sense for progression and automation. Instead of changing the lens color for higher tiers of wafers used, they could be rearranged for simplicity. Here's my proposal:

Silicon Glowstone Naquadah Europium Americium
Blue -- PIC (1) PIC (4) -- QPIC (1)
Cyan RAM (1) RAM (4) RAM (8) RAM (16) RAM (32)
Green ULPIC (2) ULPIC (8) ASoC (1) ASoC (2) ASoC (4)
Orange SSoC (1) SSoC (4) SSoC (16) SSoC (64) --
Red ILC (1) ILC (4) ILC (8) NPIC (1) NPIC (4)
White CPU (1) CPU (4) CPU (8) -- --
Yellow LPIC (1) LPIC (4) SoC (1) SoC (4) SoC (8)

Your Vision

Obviously this would mess with existing setups, but there's already plenty of that going on with other 2.1.2.0 changes. This at least simplifies during progression (keep the same laser/lens setup, just increase the output quantity in the AE2 pattern when you drop in a new wafer) and makes it easier to keep track of what lens does what (orange always does SSOC, cyan always does RAM).
