@Amby 🍂 did you build the mixer and looked at the available recipes inside?
yes- just a moment-
😅 well that do be a problem,
:laughpff:
i opened it and was jus like- wha? maybe it just automatically workes via input- so i hooked it up, and still nothing 😅
Interesting, I didn't run into this on my tests yet, I guess i could make the milestone explicitly unlock it, it used to always be unlocked by default for the mixer
interesting- i wasnt sure if it was tied to the same milestone as the solid biofuel, and the fact that i already had it unlocked, it just glitched
Yes this is a bug I'll try to fix it today or maybe tomorrow depending on how my time goes
alright, thanks so much ^^
im glad that i could help you find out about it being an issue 😅
where you playing locally or on a multiplayer server?
was only locally
i did manage to reproduce it
that's good, did I happen to do something weird that triggered it bu chance? 😅
no i did a poor job at testing 😅
oof, lol
kinda surprised I was the first to catch it, or at least first to bring it up
i was to focused on getting the schematics and the clear pipes unlock to show up, as that was bugged on MP clients, i did test the mixer but with a prebuil/preconfigured one instead of going though it all from scratch
the mod was just updates yesterday so not a lot of poeple have had a change to see it yet i think
ahh
am here to help bug test if you need as well
yeah- I saw it, and cus I like trying to see how far I can take biofuel, I'm like well, that should make things even more interesting 😅
:NODDERS:
the mod was originally made in U5/6/7 where biofuel was basicly useless, nowdays ofcourse its used in jetpacks but it still adds and intresting choice between biofuel gens or coal early on, and to power your vehicles off it
ofcourse still you cant automate your biomass so the trade off is to farm that stuff manually
or i guess there are other mods for that
well- if I use the limestone to biomass mod in conjunction, I can, but it uses such an absurd amount of limestone, it's still better to manually harvest materials
well "Craftable Biomass and Mycelia" mod now- as the old one was borked with 1.0
the amounts vs what you get tho, even tho its automated-
early game isnt the most viable, but at lest it offers an option, that would work somewhat well with this
:adithinka: intresting, i did consider adding some conversion from coal to biomass to the converter
as i was discussing in the chat yesterday- when they said that limestone to biomass doesnt make much sense, i suggested that coal technically makes more sense, as coal... was organic
yeah
i did find a fix for the bug, but it will still take a couple of hours to get it all ready and pushed out
(Limestone is made from bones/fossils mostly, so organic as well lol)
alright ^^
Solution
A fix was uploaded
I changed it to 8:1 ratio (limestone:biomass) and crafting time of 2 seconds in my game. Once you get solid biofuel you can run (1) generator for every 60 (roughly) limestone/minute.
That's feeling balanced for me. The 3:1 ratio was overpowered.
