What a great idea to let people go off and prepare or build something killy but they can concentrate knowing that there is a dedicated Magnesium refinery.
From the comments below I am rather happy to be this colour blind.:steambored:

I used Eikester's idea and kind of remade this. It's a work in progress but I made it using the latest version of Space Engineers and notepad. It should be a refreshed aproxamation to this mod.

Is there any kind of fix the problem with the purple textures?
SunGod 11 Oct, 2017 @ 10:51am 
Mod works, but all the textures are now a horrible purple color. Uranium refinery also is labeled "Uran" in-game, so if you search for "Uranium" it won't show up.

FYI: Uranium refinery stats are 2.59 tons, airtight, 330kW power draw, 480% refining speed, efficiency 90%.

whats the point?? you get a refining bonus or something and if so of how much...jesus it's hard to be smart right
NixFaux 20 May, 2017 @ 11:41pm 
... is there a reason its Uran and not Uranium?
Tratzum 2 Apr, 2017 @ 6:29am 
They are pink because they are using outdated textures and need an update. They should stilll work just in a pink/purple color.
Kademlia 2 Apr, 2017 @ 5:54am 
why are they pink?
Sir_Krebs 28 Jan, 2017 @ 3:13pm 
me also... *poke* any chance about an update?

-₪EPIC₪- Fail 14 Jul, 2016 @ 5:55pm 
more poking... I like the idea behind this but, what are the stats on this? Also does it work? Below me there is a statement that it does not work.
Cindri 20 Mar, 2016 @ 10:54am 
Hello i am wondering if there will be a mod update to make it compatible with the new updates as i run a server and they were a large part of it and they currently do not work
Cheetah 15 Mar, 2016 @ 2:28am 
Ping. Poke. Is it alive and will it have an update?
leo161978 28 Jan, 2016 @ 10:35am 
Most of the refineries seem to be all black. Is there a fix?
Dragonspride1995 28 Oct, 2015 @ 10:03am 
Co-op Peer, to peer. Accessing Speacialised Refinarys causes inventory lockup, and massive simulation speed drops. Unsure if it is instability or bug.
Nini 27 Oct, 2015 @ 6:03pm 
Please add what exactly the specs are for these! Other people surely care about realizm to a degree too and we'd like some stats!
Angel 3 Oct, 2015 @ 8:37pm 
permission to use this for modififing?and uplaod on steam. cuz im asking lol.
JamieRamsey2005 30 Jul, 2015 @ 4:41pm 
I don't get why Iron isn't included in the set. It drives me batty as some things being named refinery and others being named furnace. Also I am guessing the extractors are for turning rock to ore, but still it needs some improvement.

forgot to mention that the most recent build using them was on May 2nd 2015
TPheonix 4 May, 2015 @ 8:00am 
to everyone out there saying this is broken, I am not the creator, just a user, and it works fine for me on my DS, just have to attach a sort block pushing the appropriate material into the refinery.....
Stahe 2 May, 2015 @ 7:06pm 
Unfortunanlty with some nice mods out there, the creators aren't willing to update them, rendering them useless...
Raider 15 Apr, 2015 @ 5:50am 
would love it if you could update this so it would work on later versions. or.. if your willing.. im happy to update it =)
Fishypwn 12 Apr, 2015 @ 1:08pm 
Completely broken.
[SF] Andrew Marpleton the Third 22 Mar, 2015 @ 6:57pm 
Seems like every other patch breaks this mod
Alien 480 6 Mar, 2015 @ 10:02pm 
what do these do exactly?
Noob 1 Mar, 2015 @ 11:54am 
Use to work like a champ but not with the recent updates these do not work anymore.
Wesley 28 Feb, 2015 @ 1:13pm 
greet but do not work whitch convoyeur
Geneticus 24 Feb, 2015 @ 9:37am 
Do you have any plans to re-align these to the updated keen types?
Meaning Arc ("CommonMetals" Fe, Ni, Co), Precious Metals(Ag, Au, Pt), etc(Solids, Energetic).
Barthy 22 Feb, 2015 @ 12:09pm 
Doesnt seems to work for me.. Is there any particular way to supply them or ? the ore gets in but it doesnt process anything does it needs an input and output and it can use the same side as in and out?
Mephistos 19 Feb, 2015 @ 1:14am 
hi First thx for your Mod. It s great.
Second i want to use and improve in my mod.Can i do this or not? I ask that because i didn t see anythings about that
nxterminator579 9 Feb, 2015 @ 12:45pm 
I agree with the iron refinery idea from big dumb American, also, would you create a G-Menu section for these machines and add like an industry title so we can easily find them when using the search feature?

"@Beezil> I had this same problem, and the fix for me was to turn the unit off, then back on, then it started refining. I also found out that you MUST have a *conveyer tube* hooked up to it. These don't seem to like to be hooked up directly to a stoarge container or even a conveyer block. Just a tube. I only tried out the Uran Refinery so far, but that is how I managed to get it to work. I haven't had the chance to see if it'll pull items in on its own, but I'll be playing with that in a little while. (Just startd a new world)"
Atticus 26 Jan, 2015 @ 10:16pm 
Read below about turning refinery on and off. Now they work. Should probably post it on the top of the page or fix the mod. Thx
Zoko 10 Jan, 2015 @ 11:49pm 
I'm having some bugs with this as well. Similar problems with the ore not wanting to pull. I saw here that some users were experiencing issues unless the refineries were hooked up directly to a conveyer tube. They didn't like being linked to conveyer blocks, for whatever reason. What I'm seeing is that I can't send nickel to the nickel refinery or cobalt to the cobalt refinery. They just default to the standard blast furnace, and when I try to drag and drop them to their proper refineries, it acts like they can't be stored there. I'll try linking with conveyer tubes instead of blocks tomorrow, and see if that works.

Additionally, could you add the missing iron refinery? I know that this is what the arc furnace does, but since the arc furnace also tries to pull cobalt and nickel, that's a bit less than ideal. I want a seperate refinery for each individual ore, you know?

Thanks!
Stahe 5 Jan, 2015 @ 7:20pm 
Is it possible to add more access points on these? Maybe 1 on the top and bottom of them?
UrbanMech 4 Jan, 2015 @ 5:53am 
well can it be fixed that they don´t need necessarily a conveyor tube? i mean its not a big thing that they need one but it would support compact builded ships.
Beezil 1 Jan, 2015 @ 9:29pm 
They do pull ore. Perfect. Thanks again Pontiac!
Beezil 1 Jan, 2015 @ 9:23pm 
@Pontiac> That worked! Many thanks! Hopefully it will pull items as well. I'll post a reply when I find out.

Beezil 31 Dec, 2014 @ 11:56am 
I tried moving it to the top of the mod list but still having the same problem. The ore just sits there, no refining going on at all.
King Maelstrom the Esoteric 16 Dec, 2014 @ 3:30pm 
For those of you that have problems with this, or other assembler/refinery mods, please try moving them to the top of your mod list. It works for me.
KaoValin 15 Dec, 2014 @ 6:17pm 
Since the Arc Refinery can do a small handful of ores, would it be possible for you to do the same so there aren't so many different refineries to build? Maybe group Silicon and Stone then group Platinum, Gold, and Silver. Also it would be good to know if these refineries are similarly efficient as their vanilla counterpart.
gay idiot from space 6 Dec, 2014 @ 11:39pm 
Doesn't seem to work. Goes in and just sits there. Poop.
requiemfang 24 Nov, 2014 @ 9:23am 
yup conveyer don't connect, refineries don't work. Powering off and turning back on doesn't work nor does saving and reloading.
Frosty 21 Nov, 2014 @ 7:15pm 
Seems like it doesn't work at all actually
Frosty 21 Nov, 2014 @ 7:12pm 
using vanilla conveyors and im not able to put ore in the 'Uran Refinery' I haven't tried the others yet
SCARRIOR 20 Nov, 2014 @ 2:33pm 
Magnesium refinery does not work at the moment in my game. Neither do i believe the others work either.
Thomas Jefferson 16 Nov, 2014 @ 11:57am 
I think I may have tried that, but I will try again. At least it seems to be a bug in the game, rather than the mod.
