Hey, thanks for this quite well put together pack, I really like the progression which forces you to complete all planets in order

However I got some feedback (and might add more later to this thread) - I've just reached Solaris Discovery tech, and after finishing Cerys, realized that Cerys science pack (Reverse engineered tech card) cannot be shipped to the rocket, and also must be crafted on Cerys. That means that the research of Solaris Discovery - as well as production AND research of Calidus Tech Card (which can't be shipped either) for all further Razi techs - is going to be restricted to Cerys only.

Is this intended ? Now, thankfully biolabs can be placed there, but the space on Cerys is pretty limited, and its a very odd constraint.

I would recommend keeping Solaris Discovery tech requiring Reverse engineered tech card (to keep Cerys mandatory), however removing this specific card from the recipe of Calidus Tech Card. I believe cerys is kind of a standalone puzzle and its science is probably not meant to be scaled in the future

From planet Cerys, you can send research data. For infinite research (except for a couple of special ones), tech cards from Cerys are not needed. So increasing production is not required

I also am having this problem. the research data & the tech card can only be crafted on Cerys, meaning I cannot just ship it out to be handled elsewhere. I am not sure if its something I have done incorrectly, or some remnant from the last time I ran a modlist with Cerys enabled. but as it stands, if I want to research Solaris Discovery, and anything past that that requires Calidus tech cards, I need to set up my research to be done exclusively on Cerys. Is this intended? any input on this would be appreciated.

Yes, you're right. I haven't reached that point yet, so I didn't know how things work there.

Ok, I made a compatibility for it. its my first attempt at Lua coding, so its ripped from the web, with changes to the specific issue with Cerys. to keep it brief, I made a separate mod that specifically looks for the Cerys science pack (cerysian-science-pack), and changes its weight to a standard value (1000), so it can be shipped out. this does somewhat go against the mods vision, but since all of the Cerys researches only require itself and space science, it works within its own environment. but since Razi adds it to new recipes, this creates a bit of a clash in modding directions. here is the code: local item = data.raw.tool["cerysian-science-pack"] or data.raw.item["cerysian-science-pack"]
if item then
item.weight = 1000
end
If needed, I can expand a bit on how to do it yourself, but otherwise if Razi wishes to implement it, they're more than welcome :)
