The first Arqad empty honeycomb can be made from Wax.
However, the recipe for generating a Arqad empty honeycomb from Wax is only available on arqad-mk02.
In other words, it's deadlocked.

I sent you a pull request that solves the problem, did you see it?
https://github.com/pyanodon/pyalienlife/pull/28

there is a red wax barrel recipe that is not just wax + barrel

My explanation was wrong.

There is no way to make the Wax needed to make Arqad empty honeycomb in Arqad - Stage 1.

There are three recipes for making Wax.

• 5 x Used comb + 25 x hot air
• 1 x Wax barrel
• 5 x Arqad empty honeycomb

I can't make Wax because there is no recipe using Used comb in Arqad - Stage 1.

You can't make a recipe that uses a wax barrel unless you already have wax.

Recipes using Arqad empty honeycomb require Wax in order to make Arqad empty honeycomb.

Could you please turn a recipe that uses a used comb to create Wax into Arqad - Stage 1?

NO. you missed the recipe in arqad 1 to make wax from ralesia, bhoddos spores and oleochemicals

I wasn't aware that there is a recipe that allows you to make a wax barrel without using wax.

Indeed, I can make a wax barrel by combining the 3x Oleochemicals barrel + Bhoddos spores + Rlaesias MK01.

The problem is solved. Thank you.
