Amator Phasma's Coal & Steam (forked)

by ldinc

This mod revisits the early game of Factorio and pushes the electrification a bit further back by extending the Burner-Stage and inserting a new stage: Steam-Stage (buildings will be powered by steam). 'Love and fame for the burner inserter!' The production lines of this mod focus on fuel production, but it also comes with a few new intermediates and a new science package. It does not change the standard Techtree too much, the majority of the related tech for this mod comes before the vanilla techtree even begins. The vanilla techtree and most of the other mods content are locked behind a new technology called 'Electrification' which can be called the goal of this modification.

g Unbreakable dependency loop?

3 years ago

It looks like there's a loop in the requirements for early resources which is impossible to bootstrap:

water: needs seawater
seawater: needs improvised offshore pump
improvised offshore pump: needs rubber
rubber: needs sulfur
sulfur: from oil processing (hah) or charcoal / coke pyrolysis, which needs steam
steam: needs water & boiler

boiler: needs steel
steel: needs water

Unless there's some source of sulfur or one of the other resources, I have no idea how to get started. Some other mods add rubber trees, for example, but I haven't found any yet
