[Rseding91] [for 0.17][0.16.35] Inserting Uranium fuel cell in non reactor fuel slot wrong error
A very minor issue but one I noticed recently when explaining the game to a new player... If you try to insert a Uranium fuel cell into a locomotive you get a warning message to say "The Locomotive can't use Nuclear fuel," however this is technically incorrect as since from 0.16 when the Nuclear fuel item was added, the locomotive can use Nuclear fuel. Therefore, to avoid confusing the player the message really should warn that it is the Uranium fuel cell that it cannot use.

Re: [0.16.35] Minor locomotive fuel warning issue
Yes, I've had issues trying to explain the differences between nuclear fuel (the item named this) and nuclear fuel (the nuclear power's item fuel category).
Re: [0.16.35] Minor locomotive fuel warning issue
Yea, the reactor fuel should really be renamed to "Nuclear Fuel Rod" and the waste material "Spent Nuclear Fuel Rod"
That should clarify it.

Re: [0.16.35] Inserting Uranium fuel cell in non reactor fuel slot gives wrong error message
Thanks for the report. We may change the name of the items but not at this stage of 0.16. stabilization.

After talking about it more we decided we aren't going to change the names.
The error shows the fuel category name which happens to be chemical for uranium fuel and the error shows the fuel category name not the fuel name.
If we made it show the fuel name you'd get the same error when trying to put uranium fuel into the reactor.

You could change the fuel category name in this case.Rseding91 wrote:The error shows the fuel category name which happens to be chemical for uranium fuel and the error shows the fuel category name not the fuel name.
