both your planet & the planet Moshine use neodymium as a ingredient in things. But the neodymium is like different for each. Could these be merged into one neodymium?

I notice you utilize the common protoypes mod. It won't work there because the naming is different, yours is "Neodymium ore" and Moshine's is just "Neodymium".

But yeah if those could be merged (maybe renaming it?), would be nice compat.

I recommend you ask Moshine's author to use common prototypes (and we can add neodymium to the common prototypes if it's not already there)
Many mod authors are sensitive about cross-mod resource compatibility, because they have very specific thoughts on balance. if neodymium is rare on planet A, but common on planet B, a little shipping can trivialize the planet A experience. I don't mind that, because in my opinion, that's the game! I also think that having a common resource is a much bettter player experience. But I don't want to infringe on the creative vision of other authors, so I won't make compats like that. I can only recommend that you ask other authors to use the common prototypes. let me know if you have other questions.

All right thanks.

Hi @5forsilver, I don't know what you mean by "using common prototypes"? What do I need to do to make everything compatible? I'm very keen to make everything compatible, but I don't know about this.

Common prototypes is a mod to to synchronize common materials from different mods. Such as say neodymium. I personally have no clue how, but maybe @5forsilver can teach u or smth idk. https://mods.factorio.com/mod/common-prototypes?from=downloaded
