Description: changes game recipes to make them challenging and having long chain of products
License: MIT
Released on: 2019/07/23
Version: 1.0.0
works with 0.17 experimental version
Category: Big changes
Mod page: https://mods.factorio.com/mod/SuperExpensiveMode
What it does
changes vanilla game recipes of "expensive mode" to make them require more ingredients. does not touch "normal mode" recipes (tied to setting)
uranium is used extensively in many recipes (and yellow/utility science), especially u-235 is required to win game
changed science pack recipes (tied to setting)
required time/output count of recipes are not changed except science packs
Limitations
does not work with other recipe changing mods, depends on which recipes are changed
due to coding limitations (or my incompetence) science pack recipes are duplicated, both normal version and new versions are visible. need to choose new version manually. timing and output of recipes cannot be different in normal vs expensive modes. that was my solution
Issues
none until so far, it was based on 0.16 so some recipes might look weird
Next
some more recipes to be expensive-d
I am not pleased with the oil changes. I want different ingredients but I have no idea. feedback is appreciated.
