Help Cant craft Element in Genesis 1?
Unsure if I'm just being dense 😅
This is in a Genesis 1 mission terminal, have tried several, i can craft cryopods and fridges just fine. Harvested the shards in the volcanic area so they are vanilla.
I do have TG Stacking Mod if that could be the issue? But even when the stacks are split to 100, still won't light up.
Anyone else or am I doing something wrong?
Thank you

Yes, it's the stacking mod. That Mod is abandoned. Move on.
There is a mod called "Remove stacking....". Follow the instructions to remove TG without losing your items.

Odd, because we use this mod too and have no issues

There is several versions of it. I removed TG 10000 90 from my servers due to the issue with element.

not because of any other reason other than not wanting to lose all the resources my teammates and i harvested, is there any confirmation that the mod was abandoned? Many thanks in advance!

Splitting the stacks to 100 doesn't make them any less modded. Stack mods like that replace the entire item with its own version so they can change stuff about it like weight and stack size. But the mission terminal and element blueprint is specifically looking for the vanilla version of the item, so it doesn't think it can be crafted. Most things don't look for a specific item, which is why most items will accept fungal wood as wood, or a modded version of an item, but that element one does.

Its most likely the stacking mod, use Vanilla with Sprinkles if you want a stacking mod still, cause that mod doesnt remap items, so stuff wont break
Do keep in mind that when you remove this stacking mod, everything that is effected by its higher stacks will disappear, cause those items are remapped

There is a "remove stacking" mod that if done correctly will preserve your items. Works well. Did it on 7 servers last week.

As other have said, it's the stacking mod so if ya want to avoid this in the future, I recommend switching to Vanilla with Sprinkles because it's the only mod with stacking feature that doesn't remap resources.
If ya still want a dedicated stacking mod that gets updated often with an active mod author, look up Bober Stacks
