g Request: Mineral Water Toggle

1 year, 9 months ago

I think using Mineral Water with Krastorio is really cool. While it gives that fluid more to do than just lithium, I don't think it's very friendly for certain map settings like low frequency, since tungsten is required to make the trains which you would want to traverse the train distance between the wreck and a mineral water deposit. Currently I've just edited the ore lua so it's an easy tweak for me but I think others would prefer a config setting to easily switch back to normal water.

Thanks for the suggestion. I've added in this option.

Bumping an old thread, but no matter how I try and get RSO, K2 and Tungsten to work together, mineral water patches will not spawn close to my start, and I'm kinda tired of it haha.

Here's my suggestion: use the new salt mod to make a mineralised water that could be used instead of having to traipse about for MW patches. Something like 100 water, 10 salt, 1 silica/sand/zircon [depending on how many and which BZ's are enabled]. This is also a great way to use silica byproduct from aluminium patches and gives a second early need for zircon prior to unlocking Zircon Processing.
