g QOL Requests?

2 years ago

Hi Quezler -- love this mod!

Any chance we can get the following Settings options:
1. Toggle for Quality Module hiding? -- Top request!!
2. Set speed of the Upcycler?

Thanks!

would it not completely break balance if you could use quality modules alongside the upcycler? then again the rate is configurable

speed would be doable, currently it matches fast inserter speed, didn't want to make them too fast, since on fulgora you'd want a crapton of recyclers too, id love to see a screenshot of a setup that's like "yeah this needs too many upcyclers for that throughput"

Yeah -- I am mostly using them as a dump of excessive Gray/Green stuff.. In my test of the mod I tuned it to 8-to-1 and it felt pretty good for things like Assemblers/Furnaces/Modules.. so I don't have thousands sitting around..

For added context -- I am trying to play a mostly vanilla run with the new DLC.. and use Quality modules as my main source of better Modules/Turrets/useful things.. so I already bake in a significant wastage factor into my lines... but now that I am like 12M iron plates into this playthrough, I have vast stores of just... trash...

Yes? No? Maybe?

Would love to re-introduce this to my current save.. :3

very well

there's now a startup setting for hiding modules, as for making it faster the quality of the upcycler itself now actually affects the item processing speed.

Heck yah!
This should be much better UPS wise than using the recycler excessively...

tbh i took great care to make the upcyclers ups efficiënt, they use circuits to count instead of large internal inventories

I have other mods that rely on crafting quality modules 2 and 3, and they seem to still be unavailable even with the toggle. I would appreciate if we had the option to put those back too.

ah looks like I'll have to unhide the technologies too, overlooked that during my testing
