Fixed quality recipe input/outputs
Posted: Fri Nov 07, 2025 1:31 pm
id like to create a mod that reworks the way quality items are obtained.
for example, you could craft an uncommon iron plate using a basic iron plate in a rolling mill.
but i dont want it to be possible to then use that uncommon plate to craft a rare one and so on, that would have a different chain.
for my usecase its fine to not have quality effect apply to this at all. but it might be usefull to also have for example
wich would always output basic stone but have the quality modules work on the produced ore
you could also have a recipie that takes
and always outputs the quality you specify this way.

Code: Select all
{
type = "recipe",
name = "basic-iron-plate-rolling",
category = "metal-rolling",
allow_quality = false,
ingredients = {{type = "item", name = "iron-plate", amount = 1, fixed_quality = "basic"}},
results = {{type="item", name="iron-plate", amount=1, fixed_quality = "uncomon"}}
}
Code: Select all
{
type = "recipe",
name = "totally-dope-iron-ore-crushing",
category = "crushing",
allow_quality = true,
ingredients = {{type = "item", name = "iron-ore", amount = 3}},
results = {
{type="item", name="iron-ore", amount=1, fixed_quality = "uncomon"}
{type="item", name="stone", amount=1, fixed_quality = "basic", apply_quality_effect = false}
}
}
