Who wants to go planetside? It's dirty and disgusting, doesn't support engineer life, and has an unpleasant smell. Why not instead grow the factory from orbit?

The Lava Generation Recipe (which can be seen in Factoriopedia, taking in Raw Metals and Calcite) Doesn't seem to be producible or researchable. (It says its a recipe for the smelter, but it doesn't show up in its menu.) Is this a bug/oversight? Or is this recipe not supposed to exist?
Oh my god. I got the two parameters the wrong way around. FML.
It's supposed to unlock with Planet Discovery Vulcanus (and is a Foundry recipe), but instead the game tries to add the recipe "planet discovery Vulcanus" to the non-existent tech "lava generation".
That is most amusing. At this point you could just lean into the joke and add a cheap "lava generation" tech simply for the laughs. I think renaming "planet discovery Vulcanus" to "lava generation" would be a bit too far.
