Rigor Module

Rigor is a new module effect, provided by rigor modules. Rigor increases the odds a recipe will produce its most valuable output. Rigor can only affect a product with a probabilistic output; for example, rigor increases the odds of getting uranium-235 from uranium processing, and holmium ore from scrap recycling.

Notes

• Rigor only affects a single output per recipe.
• Rigor cannot be used on asteroid processing or recycling recipes (except for scrap-recycling).
• Rigor increases the odds of a recipe producing the given output. To convert to probability: for probability p, odds = p/(1-p); for probability p and rigor r, probability is scaled using the formula: rp/(rp - p + 1).

Known Issues

• Multiplayer is not yet well-tested.
• Removing rigor modules from a crafting machine can cause the other modules to shift position.
• Rigor modules can cause crafting machines to interact incorrectly with fast-replacing and the upgrade planner.
• The mod can behave inconsistently in editor mode.

For Other Modders

• I've done my best to this mod as robust and easily compatible as possible.
• This mod should be able to handle everything automatically; there's also an API for customization.
• For recipes with multiple probabilistic products, you can specify which product should be affected by rigor.
• You can exclude recipes and recipe categories from using rigor modules.
• See prototypes/mod-data.lua for details on how to configure and customize compatibility.
