About Science Recipe Changer
From Factorio Mod PortalThis mod changes the way Science is made. Instead of requiring crazy items to make the top tiered science packs, you will now be able to make science packs with previous science packs. (Space Science Packs not included.)
This mod replaces the way Science Packs are made (way easier).
I've always found it weird that you have to make full blown machinery for certain science packs. I would understand it more if you were forced to use specific items researched from previous science packs, like Circuits, Steel Plates, and Plastic Bars.
This isn't balanced quite well for difficult situations, it's easy to make packs. I may make some minor changes later on if I feel it is too easy, but for now this is just a test and run to see how it works.
Feedback is welcomed!
This does NOT affect Space Science Packs, just FYI! Those are still made the same with Rockets! My other mod regarding Alien Artifacts and Science Packs can be used alongside this mod. It will show that Alien Artifacts are required for these changed packs, but they are not I promise. Mod here: https://mods.factorio.com/mod/AlienScienceCraft
