I would use a blueprint book. Create a blueprint for each recipe, put them in the blueprint book, and shift + mouse wheel to switch between them.

Uncommon Aquilo science is actually better than common. It's so easy to make quality ice and lithium plates. It takes so long to make Cryogenic science packs (common or uncommon).

Uncommon Vulcanus science is also easy with quality modules in the mining drills.

Uncommon Fulgora science uses ...

You can't. Maybe move this to ideas and suggestions?

It's tricky because some tech costs are too big for the circuit network.

1. Build a rocket silo and a constant combinator.

2. Set the constant combinator to "Rocket part".

3. Blueprint the rocket silo and constant combinator.

4. Click the parametrise button.

5. Click the rocket part icon.

6. Change quality ...

You can also use an underground belt at the end to force the inserter to pick up everything.

You can copy storage with LuaRemote if you have both mods enabled.

Yes, you must use the on_tick event to get input from a circuit network.

Output must be a constant-combinator where you set your processed signals.

In Space Age, rocket fuel has an infinite productivity tech. It will always beat solid fuel when you get productivity high enough.

Even in vanilla, it's possible to get rocket fuel productivity up to +40%, where it beats solid fuel.

Have you tried installing the Linux version of Factorio in WSL?

Yes, underground belts blocking half a sidebelt has existed since the very first version of Factorio.

It was originally caused by item collision boxes. When item collision boxes were optimized away, they still kept the behavior.

The tooltips are wrong, do not try to match them.

The actual effect does not use any rounding in the calculation.

Don't forget that even an unbiased output will exhibit a random walk: on any given run, the imbalance is expected to grow as the square root of the number of samples.

For a specific example, if you recycle 1 million processing units, each with a 50% chance to generate an advanced circuit, you ...

The way most mods do it is create a storage.custom_fields table in control.lua that maps entities to custom fields.

You then need to update the table whenever an entity is built or destroyed.

How about a different "name"?

Try giving the recipe and item a different localised_name.

This design produces legendary stone from mined calcite. 4 legendary stone per second.

events.on_tick is very cheap, don't worry about calling it every tick.

Of course you should try to minimize the work you do every tick. Reading a single table index is a great way to do it.

You are looking at line 42 in the wrong file.

Fix the file at the top of the error message, prototypes/compatibility/bobs_modules.lua

Can you do it in data.lua?

data.raw['planet']['aquilo'].map_gen_settings.autoplace_controls.aquilo_crude_oil.frequency = 10
data.raw['planet']['aquilo'].map_gen_settings.autoplace_controls.lithium_brine.frequency = 10
data.raw['planet']['aquilo'].map_gen_settings.autoplace_controls.fluorine_vent ...

You need to set that in data.lua.
