Thank you sorry for not responding earlier RL was getting in the way of my trying to properly typing a replay that is not unreadable.
To answer the radar question the base game radar is used in other recipes the mk2 is not. Which also goes for the Mk2 substation which needs to moved up in the tech tree (I pointed this out with raiguard and in SE discord). I'm considering asking to get radar mk2 integrated into other recipes in SE like the pylons. Earendel plans to due something similar to the K2 solar.
As a note I do make a tweak mod that fixes some of the stuff that gets missed by Earendel and Linver/Raiguard but I couldn't figure out how to do the recycling due to due to my limited coding knowledge.
