First of all huge thanks for the mod. I just yesterday (and actually today, because i Played till early hours) I started playing this mod and it is so cursed that I love it. Just had my first blue science .... oh warmonger science produced. Still having some trouble getting my circuit logic to work properly, but so far I have had blast! ( atm I want to solve the problems on my own :D )

I didn't find any high level road map for the mod development, and I presume this would be some item you have allready planned around, but I think it would be really good to change the decompilers art to pretty much anything else. Atleast in the early game I was really distracted by the furnace art. I really don't know what would be "the decompiler" art but mods like Nullius, Space Exploration, Pyadon, Seablock whatever surely have some art that would be easily fitting .. (and i presume in public domain :D )

ps: Do you happend to have discord server where I could join?

imho .. i would simply use vanilla recycler as decompiler ... as they both do sort off same thing ...

what is vanilla recycler? Do you mean the space age expansion fulgoran recycler? If so I don't think that is good idea as this mod is supposed to work without the expansion too.

But in general having odd footprint could be beneficial (as the fulgoran recycler was it 2x3 or 2x4 i don't remember been too much time since last played

Yeah, dedicated decompiler graphics are something that's a long-term goal, but it's not a priority right now. In the interim, I would rather have a color-tinted furnace than something that is obviously a placeholder graphic, or, just not a good icon in general. Furnaces aren't used much in the mod, so I think it's alright to have that doubling-up for now.

As for the space age recycler in particular, the factorio devs have explicited stated that mods are not allowed to distribute space age assets to non-expansion Factorio. This is why the spoilage icon I use in the mod isn't the space age icon, by the way; It's so that the mod is still playable even when users don't have the space age DLC.

Love the mod, I launched a rocket in ~22 hours.

The only thing I would care about with respect to the graphics: I would fairly regularly mix up furnaces and decompilers, not in the world, but the items in inventory. So what would be nice, is a little logo on the icon or something to make it stand out more than the mere tint. An example could be a "disassembly icon" like 2-4 arrows pointing outwards indicating it pulls things apart.

I added a recycling icon around the furnace mouth in version 1.2.1 to hopefully alleviate this issue. It's definitely not a long-term solution like dedicated decompiler graphics would be, but I hope that it helps ^w^
