No new recipes for making bricks?

Post by Phoenixia »

I kind of expected you could make bricks at the foundry considering you can make concrete.
Or perhaps this expectation stems from the fact that I saw the foundry as a direct upgrade for the electric furnace.
But I now realize it is only for Copper & Iron related recipes.

It kinda feels off. Especially considering you can make logistics items.
I wonder what the reasoning behind it was.

At least there's new concrete recipe that finally doesn't need iron ore. If only refined concrete could also be like this.

I recently found myself in a silly situation when visiting Aquilo for the first second time, trying to bring with myself as few things as possible :
The very first time was a failure because you can't get stone even from space there.
Ok, so I filled the ship to the brim with stone, and tried again...
Only to fail because :
- You need concrete for a heating tower
- You can't make concrete on the ground because the assembler would be frozen (placing working furnaces around doesn't seem to heat it enough ?!?)
- To make concrete you need iron ore or molten iron (from space), stone bricks and water. And for liquid water you need to do it in space, because the chemplant to make liquid water from ice on the ground would be frozen.

- You can only use electric furnaces in space to make stone bricks : burner furnaces cannot be placed there, and like this thread says foundries don't have a recipe like that
- My ship didn't have any electric furnaces, only foundries
- To make electric furnaces you need stone bricks too !
oops :lol:
