iirc this is vanilla behavior for "high volume" resources like silver, gold, and jade.

Hmmm, It doesnt seem to do it on things like sterile floors but nevermind i'll just use the robots to sell more drugs and make the silver back :)

It doesn't do this multiplication by 10 for sterile tiles because they require silver so the multiplication by 10 has already been done and it just isn't stated, it's with things such as sculptures and walls which can be made of lots of materials that the 10 times as much material used, when using silver and gold, is shown.
The in game explanation for this is that a unit of silver or gold refers to a tenth as much material as there is in, say a single unit of wood or steel. The reason for this mechanic is to allow for detail in trading without introducing a smaller unit currency to explain decimals. (ie. 100 cents equals a dollar, 100 pence = a pound)
As an example of "detail in trading", if an item 'X' is worth between 5 > X > 15 silver then it would equal 1 without the scaling by 10. This means 100 drugs currently worth 6 silver each would be just as valuable as 100 drugs currently worth 14 silver each, which would remove some of the depth from the different ways of making money through the mass production of low value items.

Just realised how much of a tangent I went on to a simple question. Sorry if this seems like I was being rude or something. ┐(‘～`;)┌

P.S If you hover over the ingredient silver or gold in a bill which has multiple options for material. (such as a sculpture at an art bench) It says they are small volume ingredients and explains the in game reason.

P.P.S Jade isn't a small volume ingredient.

Hi PlatonicTonic, Thanks for the rather.... detailed reply. Yeah I get the small volume thing but thanks anyway :-)
