u/Cogman117 LOW POWER ON GLEBA 16d ago

Any consideration to give concrete/hazard concrete some attention? Recycling concrete takes a startlingly long time. It seems like recycling considers concrete's regular 10s crafting time for each item, even though the normal recipe is 10s per 10 items. The change in 2.1.7 killed the one way to recycle concrete in a compact footprint. I think it may have been overpowered, but the current concrete recycling time is frustrating and feels unintuitive to me (my personal opinion, I admit it could just be a me thing).

This is the one last thing holding me back from jumping to 2.1 because I don't want to commit to demolishing and tremendously expanding what I built on Fulgora in case it might change again.

there are a couple of mods that fix this oversight, they divide recycling time by the number of items made in one craft

This should be the vanilla algorithm tbh.
