Think tungsten processing is too simple? Think Vulcanus is too easy to tame, yet don't want a complete overhaul? Well, say no more! This mod changes the tungsten plate and metallurgic science pack recipes so they're probability-based, either producing what you want or refunding raw tungsten.
Small changes concerning balance, gameplay, or graphics.
