[MOD 2.0] SARS - Satisfying Alternate Recipe System

[Maoman]

Want some Satisfactory in your Factorio?

This mod gives you Satisfactory Hard Drive style alternate recipes for many intermediate ingredients!

There is a small chance to randomly unlock one with each technology you research (by default 5%, but customizable in the Map settings), and that likelihood also slowly increases over time, making it more and more likely you'll unlock them as you progress. Finally, upon researching the technology that gives you the Rocket Silo, you will immediately unlock any and all remaining alternate recipes.

But Why?
These alternates are not meant to be easier or harder or more efficient or less efficient... they are intended to be *different.* Just, use different ratios of different ingredients, where more complexity generally yields more results, in order to allow for more flexible factories that don't all have the exact same ratio of iron/copper/stone/coal/oil usage as everybody else's.

Planned features
-Add a console command or hotkey or something to double check if the rocket silo has already been researched

Known Issues
- Recycling plastic currently returns ridiculous amounts of fish due to the "microplastics" recipe

Recipes so far
STRONGLY RECOMMENDED YOU DO NOT READ THIS LIST.
Discover them naturally in-game like you would randomly get them in Satisfactory!

Some recipes use items from Factorio+ such as Sand or Aluminium. These should be optional and the mod does not need to be installed.
