Love the idea of this mod! Thank you for putting this together. I wasn't happy with the pace in the early game. I would highly consider adding 4 uncommon quality tier 1 modules into the initial starting items. This will allow the early game recycler to be useful in voiding the excessive common ores with the addition of some quality chance to speed up that early portion.

If the mod author isn't interested in adding this support, you can spawn them in yourself with this command:
/c game.player.insert{name="quality-module", quality="uncommon", count=4}

Cheers
