Long description
Convert wood into coal using a very expensive 300 million year process called Coalification!
Using water and plant matter (wood) in a special machine you can simulate a swampy marsh and compress plants into peat, and using a Super Presser with a temporal displacement device (TDD) you can speed up the 300 million year process to take less than a minute!
This mod is NOT supposed to be used to make coal for burning, it's supposed to be used with Tree farm where you have a lot of wood so you can make coal for CRAFTING reasons, (Plastics, Air filters, etc) removing the need for coal mining late game if you use an all electric base (electric where applicable)
Charcoal can be made by putting wood in an assembler and chopping it up, then just throw it in a furnace.
In total you will need about 7.5 wood per coal piece, Not counting the needed fuels, which you can use charcoal for.

BUGS
FINISHED Add better research image
Add recipe for Charcoal (For burning)
Super time device for faster coalification Fix ZIP File bug rename files to look nicer Coal power plant and other coal-related things. Scrapped unless demand is high, Use this instead Fix Super pressers recipe Correct version number and other uncorrected errors in the files/descriptions Finish Peat compressor
Old one is obselete, i hate things being necroed without good reason and I can't see any reason to revive the old one .-.
Also it was in the pre-alpha mods and this mod is 100% complete compared to my original idea, but a lot more things came to mind and I'll be adding those. still a "Completed" mod though
Also YES that's the idea of the mod, realistic creation of coal. not being able to be "manufactured on a large scale as an energy source"
I will be adding charcoal that CAN be "manufactured on a large scale as an energy source" and other ideas.
though this is my first mod so I am not sure on a lot of things.
I have so many ideas for mods that I want to produce but I can't think of any way to make some of them happen.
Like, I want a mod that makes special science packs require space research (From a satellite) basically 1 satellite = 1 science pack every 10 minutes
