Mycelia Cultivation

Mycelia Cultivation is available for research in the M.A.M. Yield improvements and the ability to self-sustain biomass requirements are unlocked as research progresses.

The recipes produce mycelia in the assembler, manufacturer, and blender.

Ideas to try: Feed mycelia-based production chains, use these recipes as biomass multipliers, create a self-staining biomass production loop with overflow. Finally make use of the biocoal alternate recipe.

This mod now uses its own research tree and will no longer conflict with changes made to the mycelia research tree.

Version History:

1.0.0

Initial upload. Recipe was included. Forgot to include M.A.M. tree override .pak.

1.0.1

Patched to fix recipe missing from the mycelia research tree in the M.A.M.

1.1.0

Input/output ratio rebalanced to make math cleaner and provide a slight nerf.

1.2.0

Halved all recipe values (input, output, time) to eliminate downtime while refineries refilled water. Previously, recipe water input was greater than half of refinery capacity, preventing continuous operation. Ratios remain the same, so load balancing of v.1.1.0 builds are unaffected.

2.0.0

The mod has been completely reworked to include a progression of recipes that are balanced into the game. Self-feeding systems require additional input which prevents infinite scaling. An assembler recipe has been added to facilitate biomass-to-mycelia conversion. This cannot self-sustain. A manufacturer recipe has been added to allow self-sustained cultivation consuming limestone. Powerful recipes have been added to the Blender with the intent of serving as sources of Biocoal and extensions of the plastic-rubber recycling loop for massive liquid biofuel production.
