Hi.

Very interesting idea to add to the vanilla game but I see 2 things that are strange for me:
- the building on the technology picture (modified steel furnace) is different from the real one (modified electric furnace)
- polluted water cleaning receipt says that coal is used in that process but in fact coal is not used (only polluted water)

My impession about that is WTF.

Hey! Thanks for the feedback!

Unfortunately, I have very little idea what I was doing to make this public. I had the original mod from Kenia Nya and updated the metadata to allow it to run under the current Factorio version. However, when I tried to upload that modified version so you could use it, this site saw the original mod and wouldn't let me upload the fix. This lead to a few hours of renaming assets and trying to figure out just how the whole thing worked so that it could still function properly. My first attempt resulted in a completely broken mod being uploaded, so that was fun!

Anyway, I just checked and coal is not showing up on the recipe list for me. It shows a speckled black block of material as a result of converting the polluted water into normal water again, which is the original art for the Solid Pollution object. Maybe another mod you're using is conflicting? You're supposed to clean the water and then have an inserter remove the block from the chemical plant so it can keep cleaning. You can then process that block into stone bricks. My first time using this, I had my bots pave the entire continent and it was fun. Slightly broken, but still fun. The brick production was never reliable enough to make things like walls for military science, but stashing it away for later pavement made the work of building those structures a lot easier than sourcing actual stone quarries.

I think I'm capable of fixing the art on the tech tree, but honestly, I've used this mod for a few playthroughs and never noticed it. It's not really game breaking, and I'd like to keep Kenia Nya's mod as close to his vision as possible, with the exception of changing the MK2 recipe research, because that was too easy. His version had the MK2 research accessible at the same time the MK1 was. Looking at his changelog, I think it was his final addition before he abandoned the project, so I bet he didn't think about balance too much.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy using the mod, and tell your friends about it!

1. You didn't notice that steel funace was displayed on the technology picture but you placed modified electrical furnace as purifier?! Do you play with closed eyes?
2. This is the phrase from the polluted water receipt description:
   "Uses COAL to filter the pollution out of the water"
   So by the conception (and as in real world) coal must be used to filter dirty water but in fact it is cleared without consuming any resources (except electricity). You really don't see the problem with the logic?!

P. S. I understand that you aren't the author but releasing the mod you've taken the responsibility implicitly. Thus any questions about it are addressed to you now.

Hey now, buddy, no need to get insulting about a minor detail like that.

Ahh, I see, you were talking about the text description of the recipe, and not the visually listed ingredients. I'll be sure to look for that string if I ever get around to fixing those "issues."

Again, you find space to insult my logic. How are you getting this upset about a mod?

Doesn't mean you need to be insulting. You shouldn't be insulting like this to the original creator either! And no, I'm not taking responsibility for bugs created by someone else. I'm making a broken thing work again at all, and not keeping it to myself. You're actively making my generosity a liability, and you should not do that to people. Think before you speak!

1. Dude, I am not offesing you. This things are obvious. And I am surprised that someone who has been playing for a long time didn't noticed when I noticed it at first sight. Moreover I'm shocked about your long post on my short and clear messages. And I had to rewrite my original thoughts in order you can finally understand what I wanted to say.
2. Yes, you are right. You are not responsible for mistakes of someone else. But you could check what you offer to the public. It is natural for mature people (although not for children). So sorry, kid. Your did some good but sloppy work.

P. S. You can forget about all this. :)

I take it English isn't your first language... Calling another adult a kid is condescending, and if the "82" in your username is anything to go by, we're probably the same age.

Look, if it's so important to you to have the art line up on the tech tree, go ahead and submit me a new icon I can use, and I'll update the mod with it if I think it looks good and in line with vanilla content, and I'll find the "coal" text and change that for you too. I'm not an artist, and I don't have the patience to source better pictures for this since it has zero impact on gameplay.

i never seen a begger so righteous and condescending.
and these are the world my 【English isn't your first language】brain can find to discrib.

ANY WAY.
thanks for your contribuction. a little advice tho.
the building keep working even if there is no pollution in the air.
bery0zas-pure-it MOD avoide this problem by add a new crafting ingredirnt "pollution "
then adding pollution directly into machine only if there is pollution in air.
i think that is a great idea.
maybe u can try to corporate that in to this mod?
either way thanks for you work !

Thank you! I will take a look at that. I will say now as I reply, when I was looking at the Lua scripts that make it so you can see the grid of pollution while placing the building were broken, and when I looked at them to fix them, it made less than zero sense to me. It was calling functions with names that I wouldn't have guessed were related to that (thankfully the patch notes mention changing the word "global" to "storage" and that's all it took to fix that issue). If the script of this mod uses a similar script to determine how much pollution is around it, I don't think there's much hope in me getting it to work without taking a programing class.
