hi,
I just wish to confirm that this mod makes that the recycler can only process scrap and nothing else?
I'm playing 2.1.11 experimental, so just want to identify what is causing my recycler to not be able to process anything.

I have just hit this as well. I do not appreciate that... :/

I hope this might be bug. I am gonna drown in gearwheels otherwise...

Hi there,

Hmm... No it shouldn't, it should behave as it usually does and be able to recycle anything. I'll find time to take a look
Thanks
Jack

Hi again

I've not been able to recreate this locally. Can you send me a save file please?
Thanks
Jack

I just replicated the same thing on a fresh world with only onlyNauvis enabled on 2.1.17. As far as I can tell, the base game's data/recycler/recycling.lua has some functions that manage normal recycling:

• get_effects() retrieves data.raw.technology.recycling.effects
• add_recipe_unlock() adds { type = "unlock-recipe", recipe = recipe.name, hidden = true } to that table
• generate_self_recycling_recipe() runs against all the normal items, generating a "-recycling" recipe, and using the above functions to assign it to the "Recycling" tech.

From a cursory look at your code, onlyNauvis hides the "recycling" technology, and substitutes it with the scrap-belt-discovery tech which specifically unlocks the "planet", recycler, and the scrap-recycling recipe.

Since we don't hit the normal recycling technology with this path, the normal recipes don't unlock.

Hi there,

Aha - thanks a lot for spotting that. I've released a fix now which just moves the recycling effects over to the Fulgora Remnants unlock.
This should 'just work' by updating the mod, but just in case, the console commands to retrigger the tech unlock are below:

/c game.player.force.technologies['scrap-belt-discovery'].researched=false
/c game.player.force.technologies['scrap-belt-discovery'].researched=true

Thanks
Jack

Works perfectly. TYVM.
