To resolve the dependency problems, you could modify the recipes like this:\r\n 1.) For the metal in use, I would propose cast iron(LV), carbon steel(MV) and stainless steel(HV).\r\n 2.) To have a dependency free LV switching station, just replace the control logic unit (for LV only) by say 2 mese blocks. This is still moderately expensive.\r\nPersonally, I would prefer a \"lv_transformer\" being used for the LV switching station.\r\n\r\n The use of the control logic unit is justified for me. First of all this increases the complexity of the recipe. And then, a switching station does calculate the supply and the need.\r\n"}}
