Circular Processing
With Circular Processing you can convert Ingots and Processed Liquids back to their basic resources always with a profit.
Description
Thank you for taking a look at Circular Processing
This is my first mod so please let me know if you see any errors or missing recipes.Circular Processing Features:
1. Ability to convert all ingots/processed liquids back into their original state. Output will always be higher than input to allow for infinite processing.- This includes Ingots to Ores, Processed Oil back to Oil and things like Sulfuric Acid to Sulfur.
2. Reworked recipes
- Added alternate versions of all part recipes, not including equipment or buildable structures.
- All Circular recipes require 1 of each original ingredient while keeping the output the same as vanilla.
- Most processing times for Circular recipes have been kept the same as Vanilla. Changed times affected processing times that did not end in "5" or "0" and were rounded down to the nearest "5" or "0"
-Examples of this change include 8 seconds down to 5 or 24 seconds down to 20.
3. Milestone Unlocks to obtain the Circular Recipes have been locked behind current and modded Milestones.
4. The Circular recipes can only be accessed from specific buildings and none can be crafted manually at the Craft Bench.
TO-DO:
1. Add custom building for Ingot to Ore conversions. (Currently the Constructor)- Add appropriate screenshots.
2. Add custom building for Liquid to "X" conversions. (Currently the Refinery)
- Add appropriate screenshots.
3. Possible expansion on existing systems to make the recycling process longer but more beneficial.
Compatibility:
The way this mod is set up should allow it to be compatible with pretty much any other mod, however nothing is guaranteed. The Circular recipes do show up in the MK++ variants of the applicable buildings.Contact
If you see any issues with the mod such as incorrect values, spelling, processing times, or an incompatible mod. Please feel free to contact me on the modding discord [Thyreos#9864](https://discord.gg/y8aDWF8R). I can not guarantee compatibility but will do my best to make it universally compatible.

How to Install Circular Processing on Your Server
Order Satisfactory Server
Order a Satisfactory server with at least 4 GB RAM (6 GB recommended). For multiplayer: per 4 players.

Frequently Asked Questions
Circular Processing not working after update – what to do?
After a Satisfactory update, mods need to be updated. Check ficsit.app whether Circular Processing has been updated for the new game version. With Mado Hosting: open the mod manager and click "Update All". If the mod hasn't been updated yet, temporarily remove it so the server starts.
Circular Processing causing crashes in multiplayer – solution
Most common cause: all players must have exactly the same mod version installed. Check server logs for "ModMismatch" or "Version Conflict". Ensure all players use Circular Processing v1.0.0 and the same SML. With Mado Hosting, Satisfactory servers run with 6 GB RAM for stable multiplayer performance.
Is Circular Processing compatible with other Satisfactory mods?
Circular Processing uses the Satisfactory Mod Loader (SML). Generally, SML-based mods are cross-compatible, but mods modifying the same game systems can cause conflicts. Test new mod combinations on a backup save. The Mado dashboard automatically detects known conflicts and warns you.
