Yeah that was exactly my experience at the start, I think I accidentally filled up my inventory with one of the materials and then had to learn how to properly trash it before I learned where everything else came from. But it was also kinda interesting looking at each station and trying to work out in my head what kind of material would come from it when the requests/recipes starting appearing. Adding an item preview when close is a great idea and I don’t think it would trivialize the learning process too much
