Burner Biochamber

by Jtmzac

Adds a burner version of the biochamber that can also make oil based solid fuel, but can only be placed on non-Gleba/agricultural planets (configurable). This preserves the existing Gleba game design, but makes it much better to use on other planets.

i Lock behind research?

I think as powerful it is, it should be locked behind a Gleba research, so at least you need to build a bit of Gleba setup to get it and not instantly by just visiting Gleba.

I'm not sure I really agree in this case. Putting it behind a technology suggests it's some kind of alternative or upgrade but I intentionally designed it to be a complete replacement for standard biochambers on the planets where you can use it. This is because I personally think standard biochambers are quite underpowered and too much of a hassle to use compared to EM plants and foundries on non-Gleba planets. It's the reason I made this mod.

Currently you still have to make the biochambers and ship them off the planet to use the burner version at all, so it works the same as EM plants and foundries. My personal view is this mod brings the balancing more inline with foundries, though still a bit more niche due to the limited recipes.

All that said, game balancing is very subjective at the end of the day, so I completely understand if you disagree.

Understandable. Thanks for the comprehensive answer :)
