b Recipe Inconsistency in Electromagnetic Plant: T2 & T3 missing, or T4 should be removed

10 months ago

Hello!
I've noticed a logical inconsistency when playing with Space Exploration + Krastorio 2 + SE Integration: Electromagnetic Plant.
Currently, the Electromagnetic Plant can craft:
Tier 1: Basic Accumulator (Vanilla/Base)
Tier 4: Energy Storage (K2/SE high-end)
However, it cannot craft the intermediate tiers from Space Exploration:
Tier 2: Holmium Accumulator (Missing)
Tier 3: Naquium Accumulator (Missing)
This creates a "broken" progression chain. To fix this, I would like to suggest two possible logical approaches:
Option 1: Full Progression Support
Add recipes for the Holmium Accumulator and Naquium Accumulator to the Electromagnetic Plant. This would make the plant a dedicated facility for all types of energy storage progression from start to finish.
Option 2: Specialized Tier 1 Only (Balance approach)
Remove the Energy Storage (Tier 4) recipe from the Electromagnetic Plant.
In this scenario, the plant would only handle the Tier 1 Accumulator (perhaps as a specialized, more efficient way to mass-produce early-game storage), while all advanced versions (T2, T3, and T4) would be restricted to standard Assemblers or Manufactories. This keeps the high-tier logistics consistent and prevents "skipping" the intermediate steps in this specific machine.
Currently, having T1 and T4 but skipping T2 and T3 feels like a bug in the integration logic.
What do you think would be the best fit for the mod's vision?
Thank you!

By default, space recipes cannot be made in the electromagnetic plant, there is a mod settings to allow them. K2 accumulator can be crafted on land and the others cannot, thats why.
