I just downloaded what I thought was the full set of PyMods, and am not trying to combine them with any other crazy overhauls, just a few QoL additions. Nevertheless I seem to be deadlocked right at the start of the game.

I seem to be stuck unable to make circuit boards. To make a circuit board you need a capacitor, which needs ceramic. To get ceramic you need a high pressure furnace, which needs circuit boards...

I am sure there is something I am missing, but I seem to be completely stuck immediately on my path to get anywhere. I need circuit boards to do anything basically, including just making a crystal mine so I can get quartz to make glassa and basic science packs.

Please point out to me whatever it is that I am doing silly!


I am using the following mods :

PyCoal touched by an Angel
Pyanodons Coal Processing
Pyanodons Fusion Energy
Pyanodons High Tech
Pyanodons Industry
Pyanodons Raw Ores
Pyanodons Flasks
Bob's Greenhouse mod
Bob's Functions Library Mod
Bottleneck
Impact Proof Cars

There´s a handcraft recipe for circuit boards.

Figured it out!

PyCoal Touched by an Angel REMOVES the handcrafted circuit board from the starting options. I guess it assumes you have some angel or bob mods installed which will overcome the issue.

is this still an issue. the circuits had some major conflict issues i had to sort out and should not be overriding the handcrafted circuits

It was an issue a few days ago. I just disabled the "Touched by Angel" mod since I didn't need it and I was immediately able to see the handcrafted version. I can test later for you, but not ingame atm.
