-press space twice to enter the element and see its lineage -right and left arrows to navigate -press P to change the calculation mode (one calculates the amount of each element and the other is more complex explanation under) -serrunder flag appears when you input a non-exsisting element -you can input ???? and ????[space] for diffrent results the second calculation assumes that when you combine two elements, you add them equally; 50% of the first and 50% of the other regardless of element stage. and each element should have the same weight (the sum of all the elements would equal one) for example: dust= 50%earth + 50%air = 0.5air+0.5earth sand= 50%dust + 50%earth = = 50%(0.5earth + 0.5air) + 50%earth = 0.25earth + 0.25air + 0.5earth = 0.75earth + 0.25air
