b Unreachable technology (fluid mining)

a month ago

Mining wolframite requires "fluid mining" technology, which requires blue science packs, which in turn require oil refining (and thereby refineries), but the refineries require tungsten plate to make. Obviously without oil refineries it's not possible to make the science packs to unlock the fluid mining.

IMHO one way to fix might be unlocking the "fluid mining" technology with tungsten processing research.

Was this "fluid mining" tech added in 2.0? I don't remember this problem the last time I played with these mods... In the mean time I used console to get the technology since I don't care about achievements at this point :D

There were some changes in the tech tree so maybe.

I play SE with several BZ Legacy mods. I've run into a problem: I can't mine Wolframite because I don't have the fluid mining tech. I can't get to fluid mining tech because I can't craft Assembling Machine 2 to get concrete. With concrete, I could perhaps get Wolframite via core mining. Is there a way to fix this? I don't want to cheat the technology.
