Changelog

Version: 1.1.0
Date: 18 July 2026
  Changes:
    - Removed stone tablets recipe from the foundry.
    - Removed stone furnace recipe from the foundry
    - Most recipes are now disabled by default
    - [K2] Removed steel casting with no coal coke.
    - [K2] Recipes that use steel will now require coal coke for each recipe
    - Added elevated rails as an explicit optional dependency, should be truly optional now (was previously required if K2 was installed)
  Features:
    - Added new startup settings to configure what recipes are enabled in the foundry
    - New startup setting to allow the foundry to craft machines
      Furnaces (stone & up), mining drills, pumps & the pumpjack
    - New startup setting to allow default crafting recipes for recipes that have a casting alternate
      This includes refined concrete, rails, storage tanks and the K2 reinforced plates
    - New startup setting to allow recipes with no molten metals in the recipe but involve other metals
      For K2, this includes immersium gears & beams.
      For SE, this includes the iridium heat shielding recipe, cargo rocket components, and all BEAM components crafted from the space-only resources
    - New startup setting to add new casting recipes. These are alternate recipes intended to replace the default recipes with ones that use molten metals.
      This includes: refined concrete, rails, storage tanks and the K2 reinforced plates
      Some of these may craft in multiples in order to maintain relative ratios for molten iron + coke -> steel.
    - New startup setting to add "pure" casting recipes. These require only molten metals (and coal-coke if K2 is installed)
      Adds an alternate recipe for storage tanks
      [K2] adds recipes for underground pipes, inserter parts, automation core and storage tanks
