Better yet, from the molten iron and molten copper we can cast more advanced items like iron gear wheels, copper cables, or even steel directly. Recycling an iron gear wheel will still return iron plates but it's less efficient than making the iron plates from molten iron straight up. And because w...

I don’t see why pipes that can go underground should use a different naming scheme than transport belts that can go underground.

I noticed that “solar energy” is a prerequisite of “portable solar panel” but not “vehicle solar panel equipment 1”.

I thought /s meant sarcastic.

Why is Bob’s Character Classes so rarely used?

Electronics assembling machines can’t craft mech brains.

Are you ever going to add something with an odd atomic number?

Is 248k Touched by an AngelBob dead?

Each science pack besides space has an infinite version, which uses the finite version as an ingredient and replaces it in infinite research.

there's a limit to the number of recipes you can have. this won't work.

I’m not quite sure what you mean. The mod would only add six recipes.

I’ve noticed many instances of a technology that doesn’t use a certain science pack even though one or more of its prerequisites do. Here they are, excluding the ones I know are intentional. Repair pack 4-chemical Repair pack 5-chemical, production Laser rifle-chemical Rocket-chemical Turrets 4-mili...

I’ve just had an idea regarding the remotes (discharge defense, artillery targeting, spidertron): make them use electronic components.

Copper tungsten and tungsten carbide are both made from powdered tungsten instead of tungsten plates, so it seems really strange that blue alien alloy uses plates.

One interesting solution would be if the satellite returned some intermediate component that you need to use in the QC to make the space science.

I like that idea.

What I want is an assembling machine that crafts the equivalent of two assembling machine recipes at a time. For example, it could make an engine unit from a steel plate, iron plates, and pipes or from a steel plate, iron plates, and an iron gear wheel but not iron plates, an iron gear wheel, and pi...

It’s like https://mods.factorio.com/mod/DoubleFurnace, except it’s an assembling machine. This means it assembles one type of item, such as copper cable, and then uses that type of item to assemble another, such as electronic circuits. In the example I gave, the overall recipe would be 3 copper pla...

BET stands for Bob’s Electronics Tweaks. It modifies electronics-related recipes in Bob’s mods.

By setting recipes, I mean:
Liquid plastic->plastic bar
Liquid resin->resin
Liquid rubber->rubber
I guess you could also include concrete->concrete.

Related to the above, how about moving the setting recipes from petrochem to the casting machine?
