I think it would be cool and realistic to have the final recycler create an expanding scrap ore path on the ground.

Absent recycling and it's constraints, it might be a simple as just an alternate ... acid integrate at a bunch of different points or, especially, Fulgora where you just flat out replace most of the production line with scrap sorting.

Has anyone ever run out of 20M scrap field? I am finishing off small scrap fields with 100-200k, and next will be 20 million one. I think it will last for a long time :D
Regarding balancing scrap recycling process, I am first boxing items away and separate them, and then if there is any excess of ...

The only way to unlock scrap recycling and the recycler (and all other tech from Fulgora locked behind it) is to mine a Fulgoran vault ruin by hand. The problem with this is that it is 9 tiles high and 14 tiles wide, which creates 2 issues for extreme ribbon worlds. Firstly it means ribbon worlds that ...

Hi,

I have, on fulgora, a recycling station that take items we have too much of and either fully destroy them or extract useful component and send them to the train station that accept those items.

I'm working on the loading part of the scrap station and I'm trying to make a generic train. I'm trying ...

Free concrete from scrap recycling. Also foundries can make concrete without iron ore.

... and modules.

The actual production chain isn't too complicated. Mine scrap and recycle it. Cook the ice, stone and holmium ore into holmium solution for the electrolyte, superconductors, and science packs. About half the green circuits come from recycling blue circuits. I make some batteries to ...

... hard to make a small setup that produces 2 legendary iron/s on Vulc, and you will pick up prod bonuses as you craft up. As opposed to -75% per recycling step when crafting down. Unless prod modules are an oversight too? :lol: :lol:


Fulgora is the planet with no raw resources at all. Obviously ...

The recycling recipe for an item, other than scrap, is equal to 1/16th (0.0625) of the time it takes to craft that item. (Items without recipes, such as ore, are treated as having a crafting time of 0.5 seconds.) But because the recycler has a base crafting speed of 0.5, the time it takes one recycler ...

The only Planet-specific tech is Scrap recycling productivity research (which caps at 300% anyway); and maybe Asteroid Productivity (which are entirely different production chains to begin with).

... this is more of a feature request... but it feels wrong?

All queued scrap recycling show the same improvement, instead of building on each other.
Should be:
Scrap 2 adds 10% [+10% -> +20%]
Scrap 3 adds 10% [+20% -> +30%]
Scrap 4 adds 10% [+30% -> +40%]
etc.
Same for explosives effects, shell range ...

This is already implemented.

See 122760 Modded scrap-recycling has max item limit and result_inventory_size.

While recycling by hand seems to work fine, it seems that if you use a recycler then only the first 12 (how much regular scrap uses) outputs of a scrap recycling recipie is actually used. i.e. calcite, coal, holmium-ore aren't produced:

... a recipe producing concrete should be.
Concrete can be crafted by recycling scrap. Are you suggesting it should also be in the Logistics as well?

Scrap recycling is next to other Fulgora recipes.
Concrete from molten iron is next to other Vulcanus recipes.
Rocket fuel from jelly, Biolubricant ...
