Hello,
it is an interesting idea.
This is not possible in this version as if you specify empty ingredients in recipe it crashes.
But we might fix it for 0.5.0.

Actually I noticed that drs9999 did this quite a while ago
simply use
in an assembling machine recipe. True Factorio crashes if you leave it as a player-craftable recipe (probably do to factorio trying to detect the raw resources or just an inability to display nil as the ingredients) but you asked about a building anyways so
If you are not sure how to make it an assembling machine recipe it's something like this
Code: Select all
{
type = "recipe-category",
name = "your-crafting-category" --whatever name you want to give your crafting category
},
{
type = "recipe",
name = "material", --recipe name, typically the same name of material the building will be producing
category = "your-crafting-category", --the name you gave the crafting category above
energy_required = 10,
ingredients = {},
result = "material", --name of the material produced
result_count = 10 --number of 'material' that will be produced in one 'turn'
},
Then just create an assembling machine entity and add your-crafting-category to the crafting_categories list (I didn't want to spam the post with the code for an assembling machine), don't forget to add a recipe for the assembling machine though.
