Thanks Pyanodon and King Arthur!

Pyanodon are you ever planning on adjusting the phytoplankton + pyrawores recipe (the one requiring so much tin) like you mentioned before? I think I will need a lot of fusion power for the mass amounts of production modules going into every recipe now

Another question, when you make a change like this:



Does that actually change anything for us? Just makes it more consistent with the other long running biological recipes? I'm just wondering what the purpose for such a change is, it seems like it results in no functional change, but I might be missing something.

It's faster and you need two-thirds less lamp.

Oh yeah I didn't even notice the lamp

But it's not faster. The lamp is the only functional change, but that makes sense now

You don't get three times as much? Or is time encoded in the energy requirement, and it takes three times as long?

Yes you get 3x as much and it takes 3x as long. But honestly i'm pretty happy about the lamp change.

So I just had the tin question:

i thik deuterium is a much larger concearn since it uses a loy of apace and ups to make

Woohoo thanks Pyanodon, now the tin cost is roughly halved and uses fewer machines
