New crafting catagory

Hey all.
I've been getting into making and editing mods for personal usage and am attempting to make a "structure" which is classified as type = "furnace" but I want my own "fuel" that can only be placed in this "furnace" and said "furnace" can only use this "fuel"

How do I go about doing this?
[edit] I started thinking about it more, maybe I should make the structure an assembly type structure? I still need a new crafting category to put my "fuel" in.

I tried googling for a few key phrases such as "adding crafting category factorio" or "new crafting category mod factorio" and a few other similar phrases but haven't found anything to answer what I want to know.

If you must know what I'm making, I'm making a super simple greenhouse to "burn" sapplings to make raw-wood. I'm sure the greenhouse mod does this just as well, but I wanted to try my own hand at making a raw-wood producing structure.

[edit 2] Well took longer then I wanted to figure this out, but I finally did. Was rather simple as all I needed to do was

Code: Select all

  {
    type = "recipe-category",
    name = "new-category-name-here"
  },
