Does not work consistently.

Seems to work for a while, but then just stops producing.

@Dummy08 Any chance you made/could make another version to refine gravel into ores? Gravel is just smashed up stone with more surface area.

Does the effects of the module stack if more than one are attached to a single refinery?

I confirm it works. Takes some time to do some math but it eventually kicks in. Approx 1min

I am not sure this still works? I get lot's of gravel even with vaporize gravel activated.
Is this still confirmed as working?

So i tried using this and cannot find the upgrade module to add onto the refinery. Even with only this mod installed on a clean install.

@Kaiechi You can already use this mod are vaporizer only. You only have to to change the settings of the mod config file. Either the Global one (all Worlds on the PC/Server)
"C:\Users\#username#\AppData\Roaming\SpaceEngineers\Storage\1327040622.sbm_RefineryStoneUpgradeModule\ModSettings.xml"
or per World
"C:\Users\#username#\AppData\Roaming\SpaceEngineers\Saves\XXXXX\YourWordl\Storage\1327040622.sbm_RefineryStoneUpgradeModule\ModSettings.xml"

The global file is automaticly created and should exist after you started a world containing the mod. You could use this a templated if you like to make settings per world.
If you remove all the:
<OreDistribution>
<OreId Type="MyObjectBuilder_Ore" Subtype="XXXX" />
<Percent>Y</Percent>
</OreDistribution>
from the file the mod will only work as vaporiser.
Hope this helps

Is there any chance you could make a mod that just adds the vaporise gravel option to all refineries?
I've been looking for a way for people to get rid of gravel without just ejecting it all and the option this adds would be perfect as a stand alone addition :)

I notice this same thing before when trying to test the best configuration of Stone Upgrades and Yield Modules, and I noticed 1 Stone Upgrade and 6 Yield was the best results on Average with Industrial Sized Refineries and Vanilla ones as well I think. I'm not sure the direct values, maybe you could give me some insight Dummy08? I use the Hyper Refinery Upgrade Yield Modules from Meow's More Modules where I think iirc it caps at ~180% Yield Per Module Installed. I don't use vanilla modules at all anymore except right at the start of the game. Could you give me some insight as to the best Module Setup for yield? Would it be 1xStoneUpgrade and Max Yield? Maybe you could give me some insight on both with Vanilla and Meow's Yield Modules. Might be a good idea to also put the relative answer in the Mod Description for others and new mod installers to know the relative optimal setup. Cheers m8!

@arkavianx There was a capping of the maximum amout of stone that could be processed in one timeslice. The advanced refinery was far of the value, so the amout of additional ore was cut of.
I've changed this now and so your advanced refinery should produce more special ore than before. But carefull, what ore and how many ore types per timeslice are dropped is randomized, so you can't compare the values directly.

Getting some odd results with the "Industrial Sized" mod, I added all upgrade slots of an advanced refinery with the stone module (14) then added 500k stone. I only got 4x another advanced refinery with ONE stone upgrade and also 500k stone.


Keen changed a bunch of stuff to, so not sure if this is correct or not...

@Dummy08 Thanks!! I appreciate it!! Hopefully it might get fixed relatively soon. :p Thanks again and for the quick response m8.

@Overlordlcy I've tried to find the reason for the incompatibilty bettten this mod and the Power Transmitter and as far as I can tell I can't do anything to solve it. But I gave Cython a hint what he could change.

@Dummy08 Hey m8, I've had issues with Power Transmitters not working at all for a while. I recently did some testing installing 1 Mod at a Time till I found the culprit. Turns out it's the RefineryStoneUpgrade not letting the Remote Power Transmitter turn on from Cython's Power Transmitters. I use those for a TON of things and I LOVE this mod and want to use it as well. My question to you is, is there any way to have a compatibility mod/version/update or something to let the two mods play nice together? I would greatly appreciate it if it's possible... :'[ I was really really hoping it would be a something else cuz I didn't want to have to disable this mod, especially with the new survival update skinning uranium from planets..... :'[ Thanks, love your work.

nice mod but i think the numbers are somehow wrong:
(tested both creative and survival):
last run i managed to refine 194,4 tons FE , 25,2 tons SI, 16,6 tons Ni, while i got only 0,3kg ice and 0,09kg Cobalt, all other ores displayed only "<0,01" !
using just one stone upgrade each in my 4 refineries

As of the recent patch, it started working properly again.

Is it possible to fix it to generate the other ores since keen altered stone refinery output in the survival update? atm it only refines into Iron, Nickel, Silicon and Gravel and it has the same output amounts regardless of if you have these upgrades on or not. IE 1000kg Stone = 135 Gravel, 270 Iron, 23 NIckel and 35 Silicon regardless of whether these modules are installed or not...

@Dummy08, Hi there. I loaded this up today and noted that the control panel for the refinery was blanked out. I reloaded the same world without the mod and the control panel reappeared.

@Khan by stacking this modules you increase the amount of ore you get 1x,2x,3x,...

@thorman123456789 Sorry for the long silence. I have just checked the mod and it work fine on single and dedicated servers

i dont think this mod is working anymore as of a few days ago... at least on a dedicated server

@Dummy08 so is better to have multiple of these modules or yeild modules along side one

@Babbayega because keen would rather blame random mods than admit the engine was never designed to do what they are trying.

my game is listing this mod, (and foour others) as causing system slow down. but in the current world, there are no refineries at all. literlay jsut building a mining ship.

do you know why the game would think this mod is slowing things down with ir without any modules from this mod in place?

@[RHA] PordyHUN I don't think so. The logic behind the mod is relative simple.

Can cause performance issues on MP survival servers?

@Dummy08, Thank you for considering, and implementing it...

nevermind thought a mod I was using output gravel instead of stone after playing a spot of SE again realized it was punping out stone so my origional question really wouldn't be nessasary.

@Anubis Not that easy. You can't place gravel in the input queue of an refinery, so an refinery can't do the job. Only chance would be an assembler mod.
But why that detour? (Stone->Gravel->Ore + Whatever?)

any chance of a version that converts gravel to ore?

Added support for e.g Small Ship Vanilla Mod Pack
May work also with other small ship mods

@BioMech I'm personaly not using this mod. But I've find the time, I will take a look and see what I can do.

Does this have a versin for small ship refineries (from small ship mega modpack)?

This looks like a perfect replacement for the Industrial Centrifuge
