NoWay Overhaul (Beta)

An add-on for Krastorio 2 Spaced Out and Space Age. It adds titanium, a new mid-game metal that is mined with
chlorine and used all over Krastorio 2 and Space Age. Around it there are titanium pipes, tanks, armor, walls, seven
lamps, turrets, a mining drill, rails and trains, parts for space platforms, titanium asteroids, the Kroll and Hunter
process, enriched titanium and casting in the foundry. Krastorio 2's heavy water becomes deuterium made from salt water.
The solid ores get a new honeycomb look, and uranium and titanium glow in different colors at night.

This is a beta (0.24): the numbers are balanced against Krastorio 2 but not play-tested yet, so feedback is welcome.

Requires: Space Age and Krastorio 2 Spaced Out. Quality is optional.

Titanium

• New ore that spawns on Nauvis, Vulcanus, Gleba and Fulgora (can be switched off) and drops as a rare byproduct when crushing metallic asteroids.
• Unlocked by the technology Titanium processing (red and green science, plus Krastorio's fluids chemistry).
• Chain: titanium ore -> ingot -> plate (both in a furnace), then plate -> gear wheel (2 plates), rod (1 plate -> 2 rods) or
  beam (2 plates).
• On the map titanium ore is shown in turquoise, so it cannot be mixed up with the other ores or water.
• Mining needs chlorine (10 per ore), like Krastorio's rare metals, so you need a drill with a fluid input.

New titanium items

Where titanium is used (as an additional ingredient)

The technologies that unlock these recipes now require Titanium processing (or Titanium alloy). Recipes that are
available from the start are left untouched, so nothing becomes unobtainable.
Recycling titanium parts returns 70 % of their ingredients.

Krastorio 2 leftovers brought to life

Krastorio 2 ships graphics for things it never uses. They are in the game now:

Titanium in space

Titanium lamp designs

Technology Titanium lamp designs (after Titanium lamp): six lamps with their own look, light color and range.

(small lamp: range 40, 5 kW; titanium lamp: range 96, 8 kW)

More uses for the titanium ingot

Molten titanium and casting (foundry)

Technology Titanium casting (after Foundry and Titanium enrichment):

Titanium chemistry and alternative recipes

Enriched titanium

Like Krastorio 2's enriched iron and copper (technology Titanium enrichment):

Deuterium from salt water

Krastorio 2's "heavy water" is now called deuterium and is no longer made from plain water:

The recipes are unlocked together with deuterium by the technology Fusion energy. The internal name stays the same, so
Krastorio 2 and existing saves keep working.

New look for the ores

• Coal, iron ore, copper ore, stone, uranium ore and titanium ore are redrawn as honeycomb-shaped hexagonal chunks.
  Every ore has 8 variants (tilted and mirrored), coal is packed densely so no ground shows between the tiles.
• Crude oil has a new ground sprite: a black pool with a rim of tar and stones.
• Depletion: the piles get smaller with every depletion stage, like the vanilla ores.
• Night glow: uranium ore pulses slowly in toxic yellow-green, titanium ore flickers quickly in cold ice blue, so you
  can tell them apart in the dark.

Only the graphics change: spawn rules, mining time and stack sizes of the vanilla and Krastorio 2 ores stay as they are.

Radioactive uranium

Walking on uranium ore hurts (poison damage). Players in vehicles are not affected.

Titanium achievements

13 new achievements in the style of the base game (game-time progress, shown in the achievement list):
- Titanium Age - produce a titanium plate. Titanium drill / Titanium express / Titanium track layer - build a titanium
mining drill, locomotive or rail. Let there be titanium / Titanium fortress / Titanium guard - build a titanium lamp,
wall or gun turret. Titanium armored - craft a titanium armor. Titanium liftoff - build a titanium thruster.
- Alloy master - produce 1,000 titanium alloy plates. Titanium mass production I / II / III - produce 1,000 /
100,000 / 1,000,000 titanium plates.
Names and descriptions are in English and German (other languages show English). Modded games do not give Steam achievements.

Settings

Startup settings (need a game restart):
- Honeycomb ore graphics - on/off (default: on). Off gives you the original Factorio ores and crude oil; titanium
then uses its earlier hand-drawn sprite.
- Titanium amount in other recipes - 50 %, 100 %, 150 %, 200 % (default: 100 %). Scales the titanium that was added
to Krastorio 2 and Space Age recipes.
- Chlorine per titanium ore - 5, 10, 15, 25 (default: 10; Krastorio's rare metal ore uses 25).
- Titanium on other planets - on/off (default: on). Titanium ore also spawns on Vulcanus, Gleba and Fulgora.

Map settings (can be changed at any time):
- Uranium ore damages players - on/off (default: on).
- Uranium ore damage - damage per check, twice a second. 5 = 10 damage per second.
- Extra inventory slots - dropdown: 0, +113, +227, +340, +453, +567, +680 (default: 0). Applies to every player, on
top of research bonuses.

Item, fluid, technology and setting names are translated into 46 languages.

Compatibility

• Needs Krastorio 2 Spaced Out (Space Age is required by it).
• The extra inventory slots use the per-player bonus, so they stack with research bonuses; another mod that sets the same
  bonus may conflict.
• Safe to add to an existing save. Recipes that now need titanium require you to research Titanium processing first;
  technologies you already researched stay researched, but you need titanium to craft the changed items.
• The new ore graphics apply to all existing ore tiles when the mod is loaded.

Balance

All numbers of the titanium machines are set in one file (prototypes/compat/titanium-balance.lua), relative to the final
values of the original machine. They stay below the Krastorio 2 top tier (nuclear locomotive, MK3 mining drill). Titanium
items stack to 200 and have rocket weights like the Krastorio 2 intermediates.

Known limitations (beta)

• Pipes, tank and armor reuse tinted Krastorio 2 / base game sprites; wall, gate, chest and the turret base are
  recolored base game sprites; the lamp designs come from AI generated images.
• The balance has not been play-tested yet.
• Titanium asteroids, the space parts and the trains were only tested on the data level, not in a long game.
