There is no way to get Wood or Lumber before Iron Man Technology unlock, making it impossible to craft inserters or belts when Wooden Logistics is installed

You shouldn't need to craft those things. Can you not get everything you need from forage + Scrapapalooza?

The only issue I see right now are long inserters, which I can add to the above if Wooden Logistics is installed.

Because of the hidden technology progression, I am unable to figure out how to do Scrapaplooza

You should be able to forage enough more than enough equipment until you can unlock it.

I will add Long inserters to both forage and Scrapalooza if Wooden Logistics is installed. That should be in the next patch.

Sounds like a good solution!

I also noticed Spidetron Remains has Fast inserters which will solve the porblems

I'm marking this as resolved for now, as it is in the next release (I just need to test more). I plan to also add repair packs for that case. Let me know if you run into any other roadblocks. I looked briefly through the recipe chains, and you should not have any issues, but I may have missed something.

I'm brute forcing the repair pack issue for now so no roadblocks yet

I'm going to put this here because I'm still too early to know if Wood Industry is interfering with intended progression. I'm not able to directly automate the biorecylcing plant until I have nutrients from sludge

Edit: Seems this is a nonissue with Metabolic Engine Disassembly

It seems I have to Forage 4k steel for Metabolic Engine Disassembly which is technically possible but truly tedious

This seems like a compatibility problem with a totally separate mod. This would need a separate recipe for coke, and swapping furnaces for electric kilns. Are there any other issues you foresee?

yeah it is a separate mod just thought I'd keep it in this same message thread

I can do that, but is this for Wooden Universe?
It would save time if I knew you were aiming for a whole modpack, as opposed to 19 individual mods, one at a time.

I just pushed out an update that includes these changes.

Seems to be everything!
Thank you!
