[0.9] Liquid recipes are shown in player crafting

Post by immibis »

Recipes involving liquids shouldn't be shown in the player's crafting area, since the player can never craft them.

This was made like this because a lot of new players couldn't find out how to make steel or stone blocks, so these recipes were added to the crafting menu with an indication what machine is needed to make them.

But they are red and it shows what entity is needed to make them. Additional groups for machine craftables, perhaps?

Good solution would be to add another page with "recipes craftable in buildings" or something like that.

Hello, this is indeed an intention.
It is not only for new playesr that didn't know how to make steel, but for present or future mod/additions that add different crafting categories with different machines.
Once you have 3 different machines with different set of recipes, it was getting really hard to find out how to do stuff.

Anyway, I'm moving this to not a bug.
