@everyone sorry for this strange new changelog patchwork here and there. Somehow forgot how big this update was actually.

EGS Recycle patch

So last thing what I forgot to announce is the changed EGS Recycle feature. It changed in more expensive prices but better return rate.
See here please the full specs:

EGS Recycle Structures

Much of the galaxy remembers when deconstructing ships, bases and pretty much everything else was enough to give you space tremors for life. Thanks to the geniuses at EGS, we now have the ability to recycle your vessels with the power of Science! Depending on your upgrade level for EGS Recycle, you will be able to recycle vessels and get up to 90% of your materials (in form of blocks and devices) back, and perform recycles at a number of locations, and possibly anywhere, if your EGS Recycle lev…

Problem with the EGS Recycler is that it returns mostly (about 40-50%) non-usable strange blocks and components, neither for constructing nor to feed the factory (had it at level 5 during the last season).

Has this been fixed ? If yes i would invest into, if not then it is pointless.

[TheRaven]

But wait there more …

OCD 5 - Cost analysis
47,500,000 credits
525 RP rp cost 3.675.000
Plus 10 credits per block/device

With the 150 plus structured i recycled last season it did not even cover the cost. Nice feature while it lasted.

[RexXxuS]

You are welcome in contribute into that so we can fix it. It is time consuming for us to do alone.

just say the device name /block you got and the name you expected

[EGS Recycle] returning unusable blocks

So I just stumbled on this issue, getting unusable blocks from recycle. Not sure how far you went solving this, but I wrote some quick and ugly python code to scan conf file for root parents and references (reference points to a reference root which points to a Template root, so in the end all reference ids should converge to Template root of reference root. eg. Window_crsd1x1 /815 has reference root Window_v1x1 /770 which has template root WindowSmallBlocks 836, so everything should be convert…

The problem that Tully had there was missing the device name or number. From what Jasha said it can’t be fixed until Eleon fixis it

[TacoIsland]

Sorry, it is a really great feature, but the cost for me would be too prohibited to consider, would rather just go back to scrapping vessels myself.

The only flaw I noticed using it last season was that since my OCD was full on blocks it would only return components. Just an FYI

[Daddystu]

Agree with Taco - cost is now prohibitive. Perhaps a roughly 5x increase in both creds and RP is a big step?

[RexXxuS]

yeah yeah… I was tired during the change

I changed it now:

2m
3m
4m
5m

credits for upgrade. But the RP cost is perfectly fine for an one time charge and analyzing that some had 2000 RP last season.

[TheRaven]

Holly crap nice.

[Speed]

I understand why you needed to increase price. Many people including myself didn’t even bother to donate to keep the recycler. Now its appealing to donate and keep it. Very good.

[Chaplain_5-15]

They are not ‘unusable’ you have to place them on a structure and multi tool them off in order to get them back in the correct form to use inside a blueprint. But they are usable on any SV/CV/HV/BA as is.

[roboo]

Last season I had like 10k combat steel I left behind. No way I could plant them all and recycle by hand… Plus hundreds of other stuff, but CS hurt the most.

@RexXxuS i think the cb:sethome:id commend may not work. Conner @Satan or @Sarah_Connor tried it and it told him he had to be on the same play-field for it to work.
