Thank you for making this mod.

can you make an update to the vac chunks on asteroids for the new dlc

I just did a quick test in dev mode, all my colonist have lower than 6 crafting level. I put the 16 crafting recipes of steel extraction on top both in the crafting spot and in the Stonecutter's table, I tried all the available recipes that don't require any skills such as granite blocks or any kind of blocks, they do the job just fine, same for crafting spot, despite the 16 crafting recipe being at the top, they craft knifes or bows just fine as well, same for the steel extraction that require 4 or 6 crafting minimum.
Maybe some other mod conflict?

Ok. I have to check this out because it looks like a serious problem.

I have a minor problem with this mod, not sure if just me. I love the new recipes for more advanced steel extraction but it seems to create problems with using the bench for other things. As an example, if I have the 16 crafting version at a bench, no one with a crafting level under 16 will use that bench at all, this is with other recipes existing at that bench that do not have a crafting level requirement.

If it wasn't for you I would have kept it the same as before.
I had fun trying to find new and better ways to improve my mod.
Thanks a lot! I love feedback such as yours!
Have fun!

Thank you! Happy I could help, and appreciate the updates!

Mod updated.
Added filters so no more multiple bills for each stone type like before (8 recipes in total)
Now at 4 recipes. Skill requirements added as well, both for low level and high levels.

4 crafting for 1 stone = 10 steel
6 crafting for 3 stones = 30 steel

12 crafting for 1 stone = 20 steel
16 crafting for 3 stones = 60 steel

Have fun everyone.

You are absolutely right about the several bills part, thanks for the info and the testing by your side.
I will try to see if I can do something about it right now.

Oh and a "mod option" to change the amount of "work" required for the extraction, and maybe another to change the amount of steel received from from the extraction? :)

This mod appears to function correctly in version 1.6 as is (tested with only HugsLib, Harmony, and XML Extensions running other than base game/DLC).

This is a fantastic mod however, if I could make a suggestion - Instead of having a recipe for each individual type of stone chunk, it would probably be better to have two recipes; "Extract steel from chunk" and "Extract steel from chunk x3" and then have what types of chunks you want to break down as toggle's in the material selection area (like when crafting a shirt for example, you can change what material is used). That would make the UI much cleaner and save having several bills added to the crafting spot/stonecutter.

Peak mod

Happy to hear that Tankman! Have fun.

I can quickly see this becoming a necessary mod of mine. Thank you!

Late game was always my problem too. This was from my very first original mods, which I had fun learning how to make. Glad to hear you like it. Have fun.

So this is what a gigachad of a mod look like, such rizz aura that make all beta coward. For real tho, i can never get enough steel, let alone get rid of useless chunk, now they are the best thing to haul for

Ok thx :)

10 steel each chunk

How much steel do you get from one chunk?

thanks!

Updated to 1.5

I'm pretty sure it works.
It is a simple recipe XML.
I will update it when I'm active on Rimworld again.

does this work on 1.5?

would it be possible to make this recipe work with the electric stonecutting table from Vanilla Production Furniture Expanded?

Thanks

Wonderful idea
