[LYN] Cheap Materials 2.0

Description
About
No more you need to waste your wood, steel and cloth with buildings, floors and textiles! With Cheap Materials, you can now make more with your stuff by mass-producing cheaper alternatives.

They're weaker than their base materials though, and provide no beauty bonuses.

This is a redone version of an old mod.

Features
- Wood Planks: Woody material, made at stonecutter table or crafting spot. Ratio 30 to 50.
- Metal Sheets: Metallic material, made at stonecutter table. Ratio 30 to 50.
- Rock Powder: Stony material, made at stonecutter table. Ratio 2 to 50.
- Cheap Plastic: Woody and metallic material, made at biofuel refinery. Ratio 20 to 50.
- Woven Fiber: Fabric and leathery material, made at tailoring table or crafting spot. Ratio 30 to 50.
- All the recipes also have a 4x bulk version.
- Floors for all of them, look into the Floor tab in the Cheap Floors dropdown. Most of them require Stonecutting, and the plastic floor requires Biofuel Refining.
- There are also recipes to extract metals from stone chunks at a smelter. Not very efficient, its intended to help in case you need stuff like plasteel very quickly.

Recommended
Stuffed Floors for more floor variety, and Dragon's Retexture for even better graphics.

Might I request a way for people to download the mod that doesn't require Steam and by extension Windows 10?

I am wondering if this is going to be updated, seeing as I always liked using this mod for building stuff....

Awesome mod for large building projects. Thank you for making this! Though slightly different material colors would be nice to easily identify buildings where cheap material was used; especially for planks and metal sheets.

I feel like it would be better if cheap plastic was made using chemfuel instead of wooden or metallic materials

Hi! I made some crappy textures for Adaptive Storage mods compatibility with these materials because I love them so much. Sent you a discord friend request to show some pics if it's okay. Or maybe it's better to post them on some server instead?

Updated to 1.5
Also adjusted the rock powder color slightly

[Update Note] I deleted most of my old mods from the workshop, as I don't plan on updating them anymore. There's a link on my profile if you want to take them over. The other mods in the workshop will all be updated to 1.5. Please be patient.

I like the update that allows us to smelt stone into materials however I am finding it to be incredibly op at least with the quarry mod. Can there be an option to lower the yield from stone chunks or disable it? Thank you.
