Enriching Industry


Adds further ore enrichment to Crushing Industry for even more yield at the cost of increased complexity. Some might call it win-win.

g Foundry Recipes?

a month ago

Any plans on a recipe to make the enriched ore smeltable in the Foundry, either directly or by turning it into liquid metal first?

Thank you for bringing that up! The melting recipes should require the enriched ores and it is fixed in version 0.2.2.

Welp, this broke all my builds, so now i gotta remake them.

Also, the Krastorio 2 Ore Enrichment and the Corrundum ore solution could be integrated as well. Would be cool to combine them all together.

Considering in vanilla, it costs 50 iron ore and 1 calcite to make 500 molten iron, I was thinking the ratio should be similar for the Enriching Industry enriched iron ore to molten iron recipe. Currently its 100 enriched iron ore and 1 calcite for 300 molten iron.

Also, K2 has its own enriching process and calls the items the same name. Maybe they can be combined?

Currently default is 100 enriched ore + 1 calcite → 500 molten metal. However I see that settings with very low bonuses might feel unbalanced, so I've added a Mod Setting that allows you to set the amount of ore used in the melting recipes.

Thanks again for the input!

Mod compatibility is a very time-consuming endeavor, especially for big mods like K2. It has been asked before, so I see the common desire and maybe I'll do compat at some point in the future. Currently I don't have the time to do so, but if you or anyone else is interested in providing compatibility, either as a separate mod or as part of EI, I'd appreciate that and encourage you to do so.
