Cobalt steel ball bearings yield 1 cobalt steel plate

[dmayan-ss]

Hi,

If you recycle one cobalt steel ball bearing, it yields one cobalt steel plate. This results in a 12x multiplier for cobalt steel plates, as for each cobalt steel plate, you can assembly 12 ball bearings.

So I produce 1 cobalt steel plate, I get 12 ball bearings If I recycle those 12 ball bearings, I got 12 cobalt steel plates

Hope my caveman english is understandable,

Thanks

That certainly looks like a bug thanks. I will investigate. Which mod has cobalt steel ball bearings?

[DRY411S]

Reverse recipe seems odd, it has no ingredients! (In expensve mode it's fine, and needs 12 bearings to make one plate.)

{ category = "recycling-1", expensive = { enabled = false, energy_required = 0.5, hide_from_player_crafting = true, ingredients = { { "cobalt-steel-bearing-ball", 12 } }, results = { { "cobalt-steel-alloy", 1 } } }, group = "dry411srev-bob-intermediate-products", hidden = false, icon = "__bobplates__/graphics/icons/cobalt-steel-bearing-ball.png", icon_size = 32, name = "dry411srev-cobalt-steel-bearing-ball", normal = { enabled = false, energy_required = 0.5, hide_from_player_crafting = true, ingredients = { 0 }, results = { { "cobalt-steel-alloy", 1 } } }, order = "bac[ball-bearing-cobalt-steel]", subgroup = "dry411srev-bob-bearings", type = "recipe" },

I cannot reproduce your situation. To get 1 cobalt steel plate, I must add 12 ball bearings to the assembly machine.

However, investigation has uncovered a different roblem where there are no 'normal' recycling recipes for game items that have expensive recipes, and the expensive recipes are what the normal ones should be.

Although I cannot reproduce your issue (I needed 12 ball-bearings to get 1 plate back), investigation has found a bug #83. I am closing this as 'invalid'.

Ok. Can I provide you with more data? AS I'm using this currently as an exploit to get cheap cobalt steel plates.

See? The recycling machine is showing that it requires 12 ball bearings to recover 1 plate. I have tried putting 1 ball bearing in. The recyclers does not work. It works only when there are 12.

[dmayan-ss]

Yes. I'm not arguing with you. I'm asking If I can provide more data, so you can fix the bug. Maybe some combination of mods or something in my Factorio installation that is causing this problem?

You can provide more data, but I don't see how I can fix what is not a bug in my mod. Start factorio with your mods active and attach factorio-current.log please. You may need to change the .log to .txt for GitHub to let you attach it.

factorio-current.log will tell me what mods are loading when you start the game.
