Hey all
Wasn't happy with Vulcanus being an upgrade from Nauvis, so I've changed a few things. You DO NOT need to restart so don't panic.
So my aim is that Vulcanus is the metallurgic power house. So what's changing?
New Features
- Added a new Vulcanus foundry progression layer.
- Added Vulcanus molten metal production routes using lava, calcite and Angels/Bobs upstream materials.
- Added foundry casting recipes from molten metals into plates, gears, rods, pipes, pipe-to-ground, coils and wires.
- Added support for Angels/Bobs pipe variants in the foundry.
- Added limited Vulcanus recipes so players can establish a Vulcanus base without importing large amounts of ore by rocket.
- Added volcanic mineral residue processing as a Vulcanus-local route into crushed Angels ores.
- Added improved tungsten-focused foundry routes.
- Added new waste product volcanic residue.
Changes:
- Reworked Vulcanus smelting so the foundry now focuses on molten metals rather than replacing Angels/Bobs smelting.
- Moved metal part production into foundry casting routes using molten metals.
- Improved Factoriopedia recipe grouping.
- Kept Vulcanus as an upgrade to Angels/Bobs.
