Small Factorio mod, adds a pollution condenser.
link to my profile on the official mod portal here: ([https://mods.factorio.com/user/Archy90]) and link to the mod here: ([https://mods.factorio.com/mod/my-condenser-mod])
My idea is to create a small building that consumes the pollution in Factorio and outputs a small amount of Sulfur. My in-game logic is that by cooling the polluted air, the sulfur can be extracted from the condensation.
The building is 1 tile square, in size, and consume similar energy to a Radar.
The recipe is:
-12 steel
-10 electric engines
-16 advanced circuits
-10 pipes
-10 copper cables
-100 lubricant.
The intended use is to reduce pollution and not to make it a viable Sulfuric Acid source.
The high resource cost and niche use make it a later-game item, for games/situations where pollution may be a serious factor. It's unique shape and input/output requirements should encourage some thought on positioning, though using them isn't intended to be a puzzle to solve.
Through developing this mod, I have learned some Lua and made a functional product.
