QP Upgraded (QPtech Addon)

New Items

Hand Wound Coil: made with braided wires and metal bolts

Empty phenolic board: sandwich some linen, resin, and copper foil together and you get the perfect platform for some simple circuits 

 

Recipe changes:

Nearly all lv and mv machines and generators*

Vacuum Tube casings are first made using glassblowing, then the mold*

New temporal circuit recipe (still need to add recipe to mixer)*

primitive motors use any ferrous rod

circuit boards are much more complicated using solder and other new crafted parts

The MV electric motor looked like it has a coil on the rotor so maybe some kind of control circuit is needed
Replaced 2x copper cable with one crude circuit board

The steel ring for the MV motor is now forged instead of crafted

The Rotor for the MV motor now uses 4 hand-wound coils and 1 rod

Stator uses coils, a steel ring, and some twine

Balance

 

made all the glassblowing tools craftable in iron age instead of steel age*

Added to base QPTECH

wire draw plates with lower durability

All these mods fit the difficult and immersive experience QP-Upgraded is built on

All have been tested with the curent version of QPtech 

If you downloaded QPtech and QPupgraded you, definitely want these

Geology Additions: https://mods.vintagestory.at/geologyaddons

Too good to not be integrated, adds a lot of variety to worldgen (reguires new world) plus adds platinum and cool ores

I will try to make platinum available through other means too 

Immersive Wood Choping: https://mods.vintagestory.at/immersivewoodchopping

Immersive Wood Sawing https://mods.vintagestory.at/immersivewoodsawing

removes manual crafting of logs

Both make charcoal and building a little more involved to incentivize wood cutter machine

Metal Tongs: https://mods.vintagestory.at/metaltongs

adds different metal tongs and adds durability to all tongs

Completly optional mods that make the game better in various ways (read their links to learn more)

 

Re-Ignited: https://mods.vintagestory.at/reignited

allows you to light things in a way that makes sense and feels immersive

Butchering: https://mods.vintagestory.at/show/mod/7966

Adds additional processing to hunting

Starvation (highly optional): https://mods.vintagestory.at/show/mod/10343

makes starving a slow and fun process

Better Jonas Devices: https://mods.vintagestory.at/show/mod/8272

makes jonas devices worth it

Better Ruins: https://mods.vintagestory.at/betterruins

Explains itself makes exploration way cooler (reguires new world or new chunks)

Fields of Salt: https://mods.vintagestory.at/fieldsofsalt

A new way to get salt

 

Recipes:

use vinegar and sulfuric acid for lv and mv battery

QOL

creative menu tab

guidebook entries

 

 

Balance

Cupronickel coils instead of copper
Graphite/ carbon coils if cupronickelcauses problems maybe cupronickel for mv coil

 

A few more basic ingredients

vacuum tube recipe

Mid tier circuit board

Primitive resistor* and capacitor*

Relay Part*

 

Better Item models*

Animations

Coils should be physically wound in the game world

scrape the primitive circuit board with the chisel??

 

 

Glassblowing

whole recipe could be done at the workbench (having issues placing lathe for workbench)

Add quartz tube item

 

Geology Additions integration

Platinum from meteors and/or geology additions

 

Chem lib and Lavosier integration

 

add phenol resin
industrial glass should take Glauber's Salt (sodium sulfate)
Phenol formaldehyde resin (for circuit boards and glues)
Crude circuit board should use linen sheet, phenol resin, solder iron(any), solder(any), 2x vac tube,1x handcoil
Electric Fridge using ammonia
Make ferric chloride from iron and iron ore (needs water for ore) using hcl

 

 

Skarn deposit mechanic

Treat certain ore deposits in specific stone strata as skarns. Certain copper and iron ore types would have a tungsten ore as a drop.
An example would be magnetite vein in granite or diorite has a chance to drop tungsten ore

 

Add skarn deposits to world gen have a skarn block (maybe a few type variants)

use chemical processes to extract specific metals like tungsten and nickel

Plate metals onto other metals
