I just calculated how many industrial buildings I would need to smelt base materials more efficiently and was surprised - is there really less sense in smelters? Or am I misunderstanding something... I know of course that there are more slots for modules, and that's very cool. But on the other hand, I won't be able to overclock it without damaging the power supply. According to the factory planner, energy consumption increases almost 9 times... And even taking into account the modules, more buildings will be needed. Considering the more complex crafting... Maybe I just don't think so? I thought that such a building should be a more advanced and profitable version of a standard foundry. Requires more than 2 times the buildings and cosmetic consumption... Perhaps they are easier to use in limited access to lava or calcite?

They are supposed to be an alternative not an upgrade, they will probably get a rebalance sooner or later though

This is really good news. I think it could be balanced with specific recipes and research.Or other recipes that are only available on the volcano. My personal opinion. If this is just an alternative for now, there are no more questions.
