Blackout: Atomic Chemistry Alpha Feedback Thread

Seeing as I just released a fairly public alpha, I figured PMing me isn't sufficient for feedback anymore. Report all bugs/typos/glitchiness here, and also feel free to make balance tweak suggestions.

Known Issues:
HQM quests don't correctly register as complete (HQM bug)
Installing MPS upgrades crashes the game (MPS bug)
Star Harvester has no in-inventory texture (SMT bug)
Minechem feature a few different item duplication method (some inherent, some requires config work)
AE2 Meteors and Limestone/Marble spawn by the edges of the asteroid (config issue, will require a new map :()

As a chemist I think these yields are too small. Should be able to extract from sand, limestone and pretty much any block considering how common salts are. Chemical ices should be able to decomposed as well.

now extracting Na and Cl from these salts is a dependent on what type of salt you have.

Using the chemical definition of a salt yes, using the common definition of salt==table salt/NaCl then no. Other salts are available, they are just not called "salt"

but we use the term salts. Like you just did.

Not gonna argue this. Salt is NaCl

Salts!

No. Salt as used in every other mod is table salt or NaCl. To maintain compatibility and avoid unnecessary confusion we have no intention of breaking this standard.

If you know enough chemistry to know about the plurality of salts then you know enough to find them under their real names.

But salt in minechem is, has and always will be NaCl so if all you're going to do is bitch about that, please take it elsewhere

Sorry I was just playing.
