Make things with magical rainbows... or something like that.

This mod introduces prismite, a versatile magical material, as well as various other prismite products. One of the most useful applications of prismite is making mythril, a lightweight magical steel that will be needed in quite a few recipes, and can optionally replace steel in other places. Prismite can also be put into a prismelter and liquefied into its three components: crimson, verdant, and azure essences, which can then be combined in a number of ways at chemical plants, generally to make products associated with its color, but you can also build things like lunar panels to generate electricity at night, or prismatic lasers to blast foes with brightly colored beams generated from liquefied prismite.

On planets other than Nauvis, each planet allows you to create a color of liquid prismite fitting its theme. On Vulcanus, lava can be turned into crimson essence. On Gleba, spoilage can be melted down into verdant essence. And on Fulgora, you can capture lightning itself and turn it into azure essence. Aquilo lets you put it all together and create refined prismite from the three liquids in the cryogenic plant.

The mod is still currently WIP. While it is quite playable in its current form, not all of the planned recipes and features have been added yet, and balance still needs to be tweaked; breaking changes will almost certainly be coming in the future.

Includes modified graphics from Unused Renders, Krastorio 2, and Hurricane046.

While this mod can be used standalone, it plays best in combination with my other mods: Bluetonium and Voidcraft, as well as Scrappy Industry and Crushing Industry by SafTheLamb. My own Gearery and Bluetonium Fusion, and Saf's Cupric Asteroids are also fun additions.
