Increase recipes for crafting category past 256
Posted: Sun Jan 26, 2020 12:40 am
Playing a mod with recycling, and noticed certain recipes were available in the technology screen as unlockables, but weren't actually available as recipes in the machine (the machine has an automatic feature - it can switch automatically if the recipe is available, or be manually set).
A crafting machine can only have 256 recipes for a category (I thought about it and counted how many were available in the selection menu). A way around may be to count how many are introduced, and add a new category when the limit's reached, but it will always be a surprise to someone not expecting it.
I'm going to have to test if more than 256 recipes can exist for a machine at all (if it's a hard limit of the sum of all categories the machine supports, or only per-category).
Edit: going by something else, it might be only 256 recipes unlocked when I researched a technology. There's definitely more than 256 in another category, so I'm not sure what's going on.
