Petrochemical mod

    So I made a mod that adds two processes, the water-gas shift reaction and the reverse water-gas shift reaction.  The "elements" I added to the simulator are carbon monoxide (CO) and liquid carbon monoxide (LCO).  When steam and CO are mixed at the correct temp range CO2 and H2 are produced in an exothermic reaction.  When the temperature is even higher than that range CO2 and H2 will react to produce water and CO.  Still not accurate to real life but getting close.  I also renamed GAS to CH4, methane, and NBLE to HE, helium.  Still working on much more after that.  I solved problems with another element, LI (lithium), that I made.  I just like working with real chemistry so I'm using TPT to model and simulate chemistry.  Here is the mod:   https://www.dropbox.com/sh/kw8c8e5bjta4rr0/AADqu00RaqK8M__j3dcD8tVHa?dl=0

     

    UPDATE: Trying to add the Sabatier reaction but the catalyst, NI, needs both HYGN and CO2 on contact with it in order to work to make WATR and GAS (now called CH4).  How can I make this work?

     Interesting. I might have to check this out in my free time.

    So, I updated the mod so LI now works.  I also added NI (nickel).  It can perform electrolysis on water but with no corrostion, for now.  The NI I am trying to use for the Sabatier reaction which I am trying to implement currentely.  But I can't get it to work and the CH4, once called GAS, keeps disappearing shortly after I place it on the screen.  So if anyone can go into the CH4 and NI files to figure out why the two are not cooperating I would like to know why.  Thx.  ^w^  https://www.dropbox.com/sh/kw8c8e5bjta4rr0/AADqu00RaqK8M__j3dcD8tVHa?dl=0
