With this update we bring some new recipes and slightly adjusted old ones aswell as their modifications.
Please Note: The base recipe for Steel has changed, as it now requires 2 iron ingots instead of 2 iron ore!
Also the Laser Tower Weapon is now modifiable. (More to come with further updates)
Other than that you'll probably find that a lot of the "modified recipe chains" you've made so far aren't possible to recreate anymore due to some balancing changes.
However as we always strive to avoid savegame wipes between updates, we've decided to leave your old recipe modifications intact.
This means, if you have an old "overpowered" Railgun recipe for example, it will still work!
Aswell as any automation you've built so far for your other modified recipes.
It may just not be possible anymore, to recreate all of your old recipes via modifying.
So we leave it up to you if you want to use these old overpowered recipes or delete everything and start from scratch.
Talking about deleting: We've added a multi-delete function for the base building mode!
Balancing:
As the Railgun unintendedly performed too good especially regarding reload times with full skillpoints and using the modify system, it got nerfed a bit.
We also made the resistance reduction of the cryo tower chance based, as it was was just to overpowered together with it's slowing capabilities.

Items
When a recipe gives a malus on a stat e.g. -xx heat damage, this stat now has its min and max values switched, as the logic before was flawed. Before: Reduces Heat Damage by (-5) | (-10) Now: Reduces Heat Damage by (-10) | (-5) Because -10 is actually the worse roll (min) and not the best (-5 = max).Towers
