Basic Oil Processing to Chemical Plant
Posted: Wed Jan 15, 2020 2:19 pm
Hello,
Currently "Oil Processing" tech unlocks 3 buildings : Pumpjack, Oil Refinery and Chemical Plant. Also it is the first time player have to use Storage Tanks, Pumps and complex pipe setups. It's a lot. Simplification of "Basic Oil Processing" recipe is a very good step, but I suggest to make another one in same direction. As a player I don't see any reason for a recipe with 1 in (oil) and 1 out (gas) to require dedicated huge building. Newly unlocked Chemical Plant can do it. In opposite, futher progress lacks new buildings, and Refinery may become one, being unlocked by "Advanced Oil Processing" along with oil fractions.
Thanks
