I have discovered Foliax. I have flown to Foliax. I have landed and mined an Arbor Argillaris. I cannot unlock research "Basic aluminum processing (Available) - Mine [Entity: Arbor Argillaris]

How do I progress in the mod?

Edit: Sorry, Arbor Cuprea are bugged and are spawning with the same sprite as the Arbor Argillaris. Planted a seed and cracked the research. Solution to the mod is to build a roboport, harvest a giant area, spawn every seed, plant, harvest, and skip exploring entirely. Unsure if this is intended. You don't even have to wait for the seed to mature, you can legit skip everything with some wood.

Also seems to fundamentally break crafting recipes:

eg: A Flying Robot Frame is crafted with 1x Steel plate, 2x Battery, 3x Electronic circuit, 1x Electric engine unit. However, if you progress to the end of Foliax, the crafting recipe for Flying Robot Frame is corrupted to 2x Battery, 3x Electronic circuit, 1x Aluminum bar, 1x Electric motor, even on Nauvis. This fundamentally breaks all previously constructed factories on all other planets if you utilize "Set recipe" via circuit.

I don't really want to uninstall, but could you add an optional research that removes all the corrupted recipes?

All the plant seeds are gathered from Willows in the world or from the recipes to get seeds from wood or spoilage. Copper and aluminum plants are close in color but the aluminum is more red. There is a setting to move the foliax tab to the end, which should fix the set recipe bug.

I uninstalled and reinstalled, and it seems to have fixed the graphical error, and found the setting. Thanks.

One improvement I'd suggest is instead of cutting down trees to progress, which is basically free if you cut down some Willows and plant seeds, have a custom lab that requires seeds like science to progress. Would make it a much more challenging and fun.
