pY Cranes


This pY Cranes inserter mod is aimed at both saving UPS and providing 100% faithful to pyanodons overhaul balancing experience. Cranes' hand size, power draw, speed, recipes, unlock time, etc, are all set to be as if you were using 3 or 6 normal inserters in their place, offering absolutely no cheaty gameplay advantages.

Changelog

Version: 1.1.1
Date: 17-11-2025
  Changes:
    - Fixed crafting times for the new Crane MK 02/Short Crane MK 02 recipes
Version: 1.1.0
Date: 17-11-2025
  Changes:
    - Fixed the jncv87's fix that had incorrect hand capacity number for the first pre-research state of stack cranes;
    - Made jncv87's fix a part of the base mod. The old separate pycranes-spdfix mod itself is now incompatible (due to listed issue) and will need to be disabled/deleted on user's side (I know this might be inconvenient but jncv87 didn't adress the issue on his side for half a year while giving his go-ahead to merge two mods if needed);
    - Renamed Crane MK 04/Short Crane MK 04 to Stack Crane/Short Stack Crane to avoid confusion of the MK04 entity being unlocked before MK03;
    - Added missing second Crane MK 02/Short Crane MK 02 recipes to mirror pY's second fast inserter recipe.
Version: 1.0.5
Date: 26-4-2025
