Is it intentional that you can't recycle the AMS machines?

Not that I'm aware of... When hovering over the recipe does it show anything other than quality assurance modifying the recipe?

If you try and put one into a recycler, it just says '"... AMS version cannot be recycled". happens both with v1.1.2 and v1.2.3

I've just tested this in a game with no mods except Quality Assurance, Quality and the Base Mod. It happens, possibly due to the fact that AMS machines don't have a recipe category...

I've reported the issue to the developers of the Space Age DLC, so they can fix it. Though, for now I will release an update to (hopefully) fix the issue.

Fixed in current version.
