Re: [MOD 0.17.x|0.16.x|0.15.x]Recycling Machines

Is there a recycling recipe for Concrete and Hazard Concrete? I can't find one.

Even one that yielded only crushed stone would be ok, as long as I can get rid of dozens of stacks of the stuff without having to destroy them one stack at a time.

There isn't. I think concrete is a 'chemical' reaction so I don't support it. Maybe the reverse factory mod will help?

Hmm...it's made in an assembly machine, so I assumed it should be unmade in a reverse assembly machine. Maybe I can talk to TheSAguy about adding recipes to his stone crushers in Bio Industries, that would seem appropriate.

Fair assumption. But at the end of the day I decided to disable it. In game, it should be made in a chemical plant in my opinion. :)

factorio places all items in the game into sub-groups. My mod does not recycle any items in the 'terrain' sub-group, which includes concrete(s), landfill and stone bricks.

Thanks for clearing that up. I've asked TheSAguy about the crusher doing the job and am awaiting his response. Maybe it's time I actually made a mod myself, which I would have either modify the Bio Industries crusher or add my own custom crusher. I'm a little dubious in the art department though, unless I want to reinstall Maya/Lightwave.

First version for factorio v0.18 released


First version for factorio v0.18 is a placeholder with no new features, and some mod support temporarily removed.
The mod portal contains only versions for factorio v0.17 and v0.18
Going forward, mod portal will provide all releases of mod for the current factorio experimental and stable versions only.
Github continues to provide versions back to factorio v0.12, but there will be no support offered for those versions.

Download Latest version:
Experimental factorio v0.18: v0.18.1 (11-Feb-2020)
Stable factorio v0.17: v0.17.10 (01-Feb-2020)

Note: Support for any mod that adds its own item group tab to crafting menus has been temporarily removed. This is most of the 'big hitters' like Archangel, Bob's, Yuoki, ...

Roadmap for v0.18
  1. Code cleanup to remove all references to versions of factorio before current experimental and stable versions
  2. Code optimization for producing the recycling recipes faster.
  3. To make Crafting menus less cluttered, there will be more Mod GUI settings to toggle groups of things off that you expect you will never want to recycle (see New Feature #2 at this link)
  4. Reintroduce support for any mod that adds its own item group tab to crafting menus.
  5. Optional: Add recycling machine remnants graphics based on assembling machine remnants
Other than bugfixes, I don't plan to update the mod until item 3 on roadmap above is complete. I may wait until Wube introduce planned 0.18 GUI changes to the base game.

Very pleased to say that the next version of this mod will no longer display the Recycling tabs on the player crafting menu. The Recycling tabs will display only in the Recycling Machine crafting GUI.

I will therefore not be implementing item #3 in the 0.18 roadmap.

The number of entries in the Recycling Machine crafting GUI will be smaller than those in the player crafting GUI. This is because the player crafting GUI shows everything that exists in game, including things you cannot craft by hand, but the Recycling Machine crafting GUI shows you ONLY the things you can recycle.

Its a long time since I compared. Originally, the reverse factory just recycled everything that was put into it. I wanted something that was more selective.

They are much more similar nowadays.

Just after the last update I've got this error:

Failed to load mods: Error while loading recipe prototype "dry411srev-tc_export_chest" (recipe): Key "icon_size" not found in property tree at ROOT.recipe.dry411srev-tc_export_chest
Modifications: Recycling Machines

Mods to be disabled:
ZRecycling

Before it it was working perfectly and without any problem, for me

It seems a compatibility problem with mod "Team competition", because once disabled it the error is vanished...

This 'bug' in my code is because the author of the Team Competition mod has incorrectly implemented the prototype IconSpecification, but the game has not captured this, thus causing my mod to fail.

There are 3 ways forward

1. The game could error on the other mod which is off specification
2. The author of the Team Competition mod could amend their mod to conform with specification
3. I could write code that copes with 'bad' mods

I'm waiting for answers for 1 and 2 above before I do 3.

  1. Devs have confirmed that the specification is wrong, so this is a bug.

It will be fixed in the next release. In the meantime, the author of the Team Competition mod may also remove the code that is causing this mod to fail, since the base game ignores it anyway.
