Exotic Economy Overhaul

Version Author Type Compatibility

Full currency exchange system with 66 recipes. Buy and sell materials with Ren, convert between exotics and currencies, cross-convert ingots, and bulk smelt ores at the correct furnaces/benches. Covers all Dangerous Horizons materials

Requires JimK72's Icarus Mod Manager


Overview

66 currency exchange and bulk processing recipes. Convert between Ren, Exotics, Biomass, Uranium and all ingots. Every material you can buy can also be sold back. Bulk smelt ores at the correct furnaces, Chemistry Bench, and Glassworking Bench — recipes auto-appear alongside the base game smelting recipes.

Features

Buy Materials with Ren — 21 recipes (Machining Bench + Fabricator)

Spend workshop currency on crafting materials:

  • Refined Metal, Refined Copper, Steel Ingot, Titanium Ingot, Platinum Ingot, Refined Gold
  • Electronics, Carbon Fiber, Composites, Epoxy
  • Gunpowder, Volatile Substance, Cold Steel Ingot
  • Cobalt Ingot, Lithium Refined, Ruby Shaped, Shaped Obsidian
  • Aluminium, Copper Wire, Glass, Concrete Mix

Sell Materials for Ren — 21 recipes (Machining Bench + Fabricator)

Convert surplus materials back to workshop currency — every buyable material can be sold back:

  • Refined Metal, Refined Copper, Steel, Titanium, Platinum, Gold → Ren
  • Cobalt, Lithium, Ruby, Obsidian, Aluminium → Ren
  • Carbon Fiber, Composites, Electronics, Cold Steel → Ren
  • Copper Wire, Glass, Concrete Mix, Epoxy, Gunpowder, Volatile → Ren

Exotic Processing — 3 recipes (Fabricator)

  • Bulk raw exotic → refined exotic (20 raw → 10 refined)
  • Condense exotics (10 → 5 condensed)
  • Expand condensed back to regular (1 → 2)

Exotic/Currency to Ren — 4 recipes (Fabricator)

  • Exotic Red → Ren (5 exotic = 200 Ren)
  • Condensed Exotics → Ren (1 = 100 Ren)
  • Uranium Rod → Ren (5 = 150 Ren)
  • Biomass → Ren (10 = 100 Ren)

Ingot Cross-Conversion — 8 recipes (Machining Bench + Fabricator)

Trade between metal types at diminishing returns:

  • Copper → Steel → Titanium → Platinum
  • Gold ↔ Platinum
  • Platinum → Cobalt → Lithium → Cold Steel

Bulk Ore Smelting — 9 recipes (at correct game stations)

Smelt 20 ore into 10 refined in one batch. Recipes auto-appear at the same stations the base game uses for that ore type:

Recipe Input Output Station(s)
Bulk Metal Smelt 20 Metal Ore 10 Refined Metal Stone/Concrete/Electric Furnace
Bulk Copper Smelt 20 Copper Ore 10 Refined Copper Stone/Concrete/Electric Furnace
Bulk Gold Smelt 20 Gold Ore 10 Refined Gold Concrete/Electric Furnace
Bulk Titanium Smelt 20 Titanium Ore 10 Titanium Ingot Concrete/Electric Furnace
Bulk Platinum Smelt 20 Platinum Ore 10 Platinum Ingot Concrete/Electric Furnace
Bulk Bauxite Refine 30 Bauxite 15 Aluminium Concrete/Electric Furnace
Bulk Cobalt Smelt 20 Cobalt Ore 10 Cobalt Ingot Concrete/Electric Furnace
Bulk Lithium Refine 20 Lithium Ore 10 Lithium Refined Chemistry Bench
Bulk Ruby Cut 20 Ruby Ore 10 Ruby Shaped Glassworking Bench

Icons

All recipes use the output item's icon automatically — the game displays the crafted item's icon in the recipe list. No custom icon overrides needed since every output references a valid D_ItemTemplate entry with its own icon.

Compatibility

  • ✅ Compatible with all other mods
  • ✅ Compatible with FastProcessing mods

Installation

Import Exotic_Economy_Overhaul.EXMODZ via Icarus Mod Manager.

Version History

  • v2.1 - Crash fix: All recipe outputs corrected from D_ItemsStatic to D_ItemTemplate (caused EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION). Added 14 missing recipes: Refined Copper and Refined Metal buy recipes, plus sell-back recipes for all 12 materials that could previously only be bought. Every material now has both buy and sell. 66 total recipes.
  • v2.0 - Complete rebuild. Fixed missing RequiredMillijoules on all recipes (root cause of mod being broken). Added 25 new recipes: 9 bulk ore smelting at correct furnaces/benches, Cobalt/Lithium/Ruby/Obsidian/Aluminium buy/sell, Uranium/Biomass to Ren, 3 new cross-conversions, Copper Wire/Glass/Concrete Mix purchases. 52 total recipes.
  • v1.1 - Rebuilt with correct game item names. 27 recipes.
  • v1.0 - Initial release (had invalid item references)
