b [Fixed] Zircon unavailable on Lignumis

7 months ago

The mod Lignumis has the player start on a pre-Nauvis planet. This creates a progression problem when stone furnaces require zircon, which cannot be obtained legitimately on Lignumis.

The old stone recycling recipes seem to be limited to the recycler now. Perhaps a workaround could be to enable handcraft-only variants of those recipes if the Lignumis mod is present?

Good to see you and thanks for raising this, Xynariz! I have enabled those recipes from the start if the mod is present.

Always a pleasure to see you around! It's awesome to be able to use your mods in the world of Space Age, thank you for bringing them into this age!

I can confirm that the softlock has been resolved. Thanks for the update, much appreciated! I hope to stay motivated enough to finish this playthrough, without encountering any other issues!

One thing of note - I was technically incorrect that this caused a deadlock. I later discovered Lignumis has big rocks, which do spawn zircon. However, I do believe that allowing handcrafting of stone -> zircon is a more elegant solution, as stone patches are more plentiful than big rocks (and big rocks are technically finite).

I did see the big rocks there, but a quick "deletion tool" select on a new game showed me about 200 zircon in my starting area, which didn't feel like enough without patches, so instead of giving big rocks a TON of zircon, your suggestion seemed like the best solution for now.

Depending on the evolution of the various mods involved, I could eventually add patches or do something different.

After installing Lignumis and K2 Spaced Out, stone bricks require 5 zircon, making it impossible to normally produce stone bricks on the pre-Nauvis planet.
