You state:

I've now generated something that might help by showing the direction in which a change is usually
needed.

Given what that "something" subsequently states, though, how is this for a valid alternative:

I've now generated something, (comma) WHICH might help by showing the direction, (comma) in THAT a change is usually needed.

(Sorry, I know it's wholly preposterous -- I just couldn't resist it).
