Long description
Long description
Right now it's still on it's baby steps. But is intended to rework the evolution of the player. At version 0.1.0 makes the game slower in the beginning. Not by multiplying recipes or increase the cost, but by adding more research. Now you have to research a stone pickaxe so you can mine faster. The iron pickaxe is still fast to obtain but in the future it would be more harder to obtain (not everyone can create a pickaxe in their backyard in just few min right?)
The research tree suffered an overhaul by adding a full new tree of the until now already craftable items. The Automation research for example is the 8th on the line.
The mod still has minor bugs but non game braking.
About the testing I have some problems. I don't actually own a copy of factorio, so I have to borrow my neighbours computer to test it. It's been working but it slows the progress done

(especially when I make a small update for him to test and I forget a comma 
)
On my last test I realised that the research is taking to much time making the start a bit of grinding. I will address this ASAP )Pictures

The added researches
Science packs made of wood
Advanced Researches lets keep up with the rest of the game. But probably not for long
Skipping Burner phase won't be that easy anymore, but still doable

Schematics of the Mineral Processing
This is still the plans of the copper itself. I will add other minerals afterwards. This will also help you understand my long term plans.

Version 0.1.3:
Version 0.1.3:
- Created the recipe for crushed iron and copper to improve ratios;
- Small tweaks on balancing;
- Added windmill to the tech tree.
- Created base files for 2 copper ores (malachite and chalcocite);
- Created windmill building for basic ore grinding(still no uses);
- Decreased raw ore smelting so it has to be refined before smelting (check schematics for more info).
- Added charcoal recipe (still non usable);
- Tweaked time for some researches;
- Created base line for new ores
- Strips down the player so it has to craft every item. No guns or even a metal plate;
- Starts with only 2 recipes (a wooden lab and a science pack mk0);
- Reworked the research tree to make the initial progression more intuitive (will be usefull on the long term).
known bugs
Known Bugs
- Simple electronics have the same name of Electronics;
- Windmill blank graphic is appearing invisible;
- Chalcocite is appearing as copper ore on the map
