Development and Discussion

Angels. Have you considered rather than adding concrete and reinforced concrete instead just changing the recipes in vanilla to be yours and convert all the machines that require these to require the vanilla versions? I find this would be a good fix to when placing down the various concrete they turn into the vanilla ones.

Hi here,
Fresh install of Factorio 0.16.51 with Angel's Refining, Smelting and Petrochem and magic happens...



Not sure what is going on here because have another pack installed with the same versions of the mods (and a ton of others) and it just works...

My intent was to bing up a modpack for me with Pyannodons and Angel with no Bob's included but this causes multiple sacle of errors, tuned down to this one.

I just came back to factorio after some months and I was wondering if the free manganese from water chain was phased out? I am unable to locate it if it is still possible

that is gone. The way to go is now geodes from the seafloor pump chain.

Consider using the crushed saphrite/jivolite/rubyte combined sorting to get equal amounts of iron and manganese. No catalyst required either. The same concept applies for copper & tin.

Or add Madclown ores and get pure manganese.

Would it be possible to get a recipe to produce CO2 from coke? That would be quite realistic and help clean up a lot of spaghetti by not having to belt coal around to nearly as many places (which often also need coke).

I really want to keep it to default vanilla ores but still use LOGISTICS because I love the robots and trains. If I try to disable Angels Refining it will cut off the Angels Logistics mods because Ores is a dependent of Components and Tech which is a dependent for Logistics. I tried to disable all Angel/Bob related ore things while generating a new map but that wasn't enough.

Suggestions?

I investigated the mod and Angel's Industries looks like a really big mod with most of it disabled. It is probably not done yet.

So that's the reason you can't easily isolate it.

One solution I see is to adapt the old Angel Logistics mod to vanilla.

Hi "Arch666Angel"
I would like to ask you for you agreement.

I am preparing "Real_world_mod" for Factorio (latest version). I want to avoid incompatibility with loading many 'BIG' mods together (as we can see in Angels and Bobs mod - same technology are useless or doubled), so i decided create totaly new mod folder with the best technology (i would like to use your graphics and graphics from Bobs mods as well - i mean buildings, materials (icons), only models ("entity" and .png files) as is (without graphics changes).

This mod (should) include also my recipes and items:
1) Menu - icons are sorted together with vanilla factorio (no vanilla menu and Angels and Bobs menu separate)
2) Real ores (Hematite, bornite, sfalrite - real world ores, sorting and using)
3) Nuclear laboratory and uranium and thorium new processing, new fluids, new chemicals
4) New types of nuclear reactor (fuel - uranium, plutonium, fusion)
5) Some new electricity (solar panel MK4 with using termoelectric generator etc.)
6) Some new electronic (sollar cells, optics, magnets, heaters for el. furnaces)
7) Ore crusher, simple distilers for using only pure water from see water, liquification laboratory (liquid helium...)
8) Fusion reaction components (deuterium, tritium, helium...)
9) Milling tools, filters
10) Re-write module system (to module 8 only)
11) Gems are sorted in "sorter" and they are using for minerals extraction: diamond->milling tools, hand tool, Emerald-> berillium (neutron reflector, deflector for many nuclear reaction and bombs)…

Other recipes and items I will prepare later.
These technologies are completed done and fully function on my computer only (it was spent about 6 months)

Therefore i would like to ask you about your agree with using your models as is - (files (above mentioned) copied to my folder).
I will take some months to completed this mod (i am waiting for 0.17 and update) and if you will have a time or participate, I will be glad.
Of course, if you will agree, your name will be write like a co-author in "info.json" file together with "bobingabout" as well.

Thank you very much for understading

[Arch666Angel]

I dont care about the code but I have to say no for the gfx, that's what I tell all people asking this same question and this will stay. I put a lot of time in making the models and gfx and I want them to stay inside my mods.

[petrobi]

OK, I know you spend lot of time making models. Thanks for answer. Your models are perfect !

Hey guys i just realize something really annoying ...
Copper ore and iron ore can be able to stack by 50 but all the others ore are stacked by 200...
So it makes a huge trouble of size for warehouse (see pic) because we can stock 4 times less
Could you be able to change on your mod ?

You have a mod installed that changes that cause it is 200 in Vanilla and 200 in my AB game, too.

But the mods affect this it's only "Default game - Angel's smelteing" .... (the inscription in yellow)
What could be else ?

hi again,
after updating the new version the next error occour. I play with SeaBlock-mods and after the first deaktivation of mods i aktivatet one by one...the last i aktivatet whas the seablock itself an the message say: file not found: __angelspetrochem__/graphics/icons/solid-resin-1.png
mods to deaktivate:
-seablock
-bobelectronics
-bobplates

must i wait till sea block has make his update or is it a error by the petrochem-mod?

[DarkNova]

I noticed that in my case somehow 2 different fiberglass plates are available
Screenshot: and this
But I found the icon at Bob electronics in the icon directory:

So I'm just a bit confused
sry for error this is translate with google and sry for the image fail

[Ober3550]

This may be an odd request. But could you make the angels ore override for angels refining a mod setting rather than a forced configuration. I'm asking because I've made a modpack that includes both ore generation types between bobs and angels in order to make early game easier but end game harder because it forces the player to use the angels infinite ore and angels processing. The way I got around it currently is I just removed that file from the mod.
