I have just reached the t2 sience packs. And my factory is fugly.
Am very happy of the complexity of the mod. though it have taken me some time to find out the different things.

How is it going with the "Tech tree" for the mod?
If you supply me all the recipies i will happy start working on it for you.

Theres a program for that. I believe its called Foreman.

I have tried getting foreman, but no matter what version it keeps giving errors. When loading it up on 11.22 with narmod. no problems if i remove the narmod (in convo in his thread about it)

Blu3wolf wrote:Sulfur Dioxide is in the wrong category (should be chemistry instead of chemical-furnace).

This caused it to not be 'made in' anything until I changed the category.

EDIT: Okay, clearly that isnt correct either, because that make it impossible to actually get sulfur dioxide in a new game (due to tech loop).

So it should still be the chem furnace, which brings up the question of what is stopping the recipe from working.


EDIT2: The chemical furnace has no fluid output pipe, but sulfur dioxide is a fluid. I guess if I add a fluid output pipe to the chemical furnace, that should work?

I dont know how to do that, but I can probably work it out by looking at other buildings which do have them. Thats not the worrying part though. Thematically, the chem furnace doesnt strike me as the kind of building which can process a gas. The chem plant would fit the role better. However, a chem plant cannot be built without first getting sulfur dioxide, so clearly sulfur dioxide should not be made in a chem plant.

I found a problem with technology dependencies... The heat exchanger takes brass to make which is a problem because you won't be able to make brass without argon, because the zinc plate is made in a chemical plant.

Also, it is impossible to unlock the sulfuric acid recipe.

pib wrote:I decided to change the mid sized electric-motor requirement in the heat-exchanger recipe to an air-compressor so that it can be made without sulfuric acid.

edit: but that doesn't really feel right, i just wasn't sure what to do to continue...

If you want to fix that error, go to the vanilla-replace2.lua file in prototypes and change the lines near the top (lines 7 to 10) to this:

Code: Select all

data.raw["tool"]["science-pack-1"].subgroup = "data-pack"
data.raw["tool"]["science-pack-2"].subgroup = "data-pack"
