[0.12.x][v0.12.12] Bob's Metals, Chemicals and Intermediates

[bobingabout]

Okay, thank you. This mod looks like a lot of fun, so I really want to use it.

Actually, in the mean time, you could try my WIP version, see if the problem still exists.

No problem at all, it booted up like a charm! Thank you! EDIT: Doh! The game does not see the mod now!

[1M_Industries]

Okay, this is really wacky. It says I need Bob's ores 5.2 or greater, but I cannot find a download link for that.

[1M_Industries]

Okay, if i try to use just Bob's plates 5.3, it crashes in the same exact way. Working, working, hits Bob's plates...BOOM! Crash. EDIT: Would telling you about my system help? EDIT2: If anyone here uses Linux and has this mod working, please tell me what you did. I really want to use this mod, so it would be really appreciated.

bobores 5.2 is the working version, 5.1 should work with it just fine, the only things I've changed in the ores mod is the catagories system, and what it does if it fines cassiterite from f-mod.

I'll look into it myself anyway, but if it is a problem related specifically to linux 64bit, it will be hard to find, since I don't have that.

Also, where do I get Bob's ores 5.2? I cannot find the link on the Bob's ores page.

I tried just the 2 mods bobores and bobplates, works fine for me....
Bobores v0.5.2 is the working version, you don't really need it, but if you really want to try it: https://www.dropbox.com/s/x2p3qwy4qf86i ... v0.5.2.rar

I've been trying to think of what the problem might be... how much system memory do you have? try turn on low graphics mode?

I have 4gb of memory. EDIT: Nope, low graphics mode does not help, crashes just like before.

I found an error. Windows is a case-insensative OS when it comes to filenames, therefore it doesn't care if filenames have a capital letter in them, or not.
Linux is a case-sensative OS, so if a filename has a capital letter, it is a different file than one without.

bobplates\graphics\icons\Hydrogen.png should be named hydrogen.png. this MIGHT be causing the problem.

WHOOT!!!! It works! Thank you!

[bobingabout]

WHOOT!!!! It works! Thank you!

You're welcome!

I had a think about it you see... "Why would it work in windows, but not linux? Filenames? Check all the filenames. found one!"

I'll make sure the file is named correctly for future releases.

Bob Idea
may arrange with Yuoki ?

to connect some things let the resources to unify the board and resources already just not enough memory by installing a bunch of plants and chic fashion would you both, I'll write it in the subject line ..

ie do the same motherboard, and production assume gil and weapons etc. you use part of your components, while the other part of it.
I certainly do not insist, but it would be cool .. just very cool!

this will reduce the work you and him .. and and therefore faster to do and will be very cool mod you. + Reduce the amount of memory consumed

I used the same internal names for my tin, zinc, gold, silver, tungsten and lead as DyTech, and alloys of these metals.

F-Mod and DyTech use the same internal names for Tin(plates, not ore), Gold and Silver.

I also used the same internal name as F-Mod for Aluminium, and Titanium ore(rutile), but titanium plate didn't exist, I anticipated the name F-Mod is most likely to use.


Currently released bobplates uses different item name for Silicon than DyTech(and Industrio too), but the next release will have a migration script to change the name of my silicon to the name of DyTech silicon. And replace Industrio Silicon Wafer recipe to use my/DyTech Silicon.


I had a quick look at Yuoki mod, he uses his own names for everything, it would be difficult to encorporate compatability.

if I changed to use the same as Yuoki it would break DyTech compatability.

Bob your good mod .. was good recipes to add a little
say from some ores to extract more sulfur and sulfuric acid, plastics, etc.
that would be faster ore from warehouses to deliver a bit everything else was perfect!

[bobingabout]

say from some ores to extract more sulfur and sulfuric acid, plastics, etc.

Sulfuric Acid and Sulfur Dioxide are supposed to be useful Byproducts.

The reason why Sulfuric Acid is low on Nickel Plate recipe is because the base game has 5 sulfur = 1 sulfuric acid.
Therefore a byproduct of 0.2 sulfuric acid = 1 sulfur equivelent.

If you notice, lead chemical recipe has 1 sulfur dioxide as byproduct. This can be used to make 1 sulfur, or 0.25 sulfuric acid.


This is partly to encourage you to still set up oil sulfur processing.


I am currently working on an extension mod to add even more chemicals and intermediate products.

[bobingabout]

Question: there exists 2 lead recipes.
One you put the ore in a furnace, and get a plate, the end. old recipe.
the other is a 2 phase process, first using oxigen to produce Sulfur Dioxide as a byproduct, second using carbon(coal) to produce a plate.

Should I remove the furnace recipe in the next release?

I know most people don't think about Lead much, because it is an under-used ore currently.

excellent! I'm glad .. we wait.
no no, leave the foundry, they are more convenient .. or can you do all the recipes in the chemical plant that would be reprocessed? then convenient ..

Idea

Add a group button for Bob's resources?

It will be in 0.5.3.
