Yeah, I did that. Regardless of what I'm putting in, say simply copying Ethane and it's reactions, the game keeps insisting that there's "null reactants" and "null products". I've only experienced this from including a space or something somewhere, or when I'm working on something and forgot to actually add a number... or, I seem to remember getting it for something else but can't remember what. Make sure your editor is saving the document as plain text, and not doing anything like inserting extra-spaced lines for new paragraphs. Failing that... I dunno. If you tell me what you want, I can make a working ChemicalReactions.txt for you. I'm using Notepad++ to try and edit the files, and I think seperate things are separated by the use of Tab, right? Sometimes I get no reactants error, i'm always getting a no products error. ChemicalReaction LOX Cubane
Reactants Cubane Oxygen
ReactantCounts 1 10
Products Water Carbon Dioxide
ProductCounts 4 8
ActivationEnergy_kJ__mol 12.0
AutoignitionTemperature_K 771
CharacteristicLength_m 1.27
ChemicalReaction Fluorine Cubane
Reactants Fluorine Cubane
ReactantCounts 20 1
Products Hydrogen Fluoride Tetrafluoromethane
ProductCounts 8 8
ActivationEnergy_kJ__mol 12.0
AutoignitionTemperature_K 771
CharacteristicLength_m 1.This should be correct, no? |

I'm using Notepad++ to try and edit the files, and I think seperate things are separated by the use of Tab, right? Sometimes I get no reactants error, i'm always getting a no products error. Your code suggests you have double the number of line breaks. The game is detecting the ChemicalReaction line but since the next line is empty nothing is found. Try using regular Notepad. It should look like this: ChemicalReaction LOX Cubane
Reactants Cubane Oxygen
ReactantCounts 1 10
Products Water Carbon Dioxide
ProductCounts 4 8
ActivationEnergy_kJ__mol 12.0

CharacteristicLength_m 1.I checked it three times now, in regular notepad and for some reason still get the same issue. No extra enter presses, no extra spaces or tabs. I can't fathom why since all the metals/alloys seem to work fine. It's possible the game simple isn't reading any of the liquids, but all the stock stuff still works. What I'm trying to do is simply grab everything from the main posts. I guess a Zip file containing all the text files would work to the same effect, and would probably work if you wish to provide one (or not, I won't mind if you don't). |

Have you checked for a tab space in the line between the two reactions?, i used to have a similar problem originating from that. |

Reactants are seperate by tabs, which I think is how it's supposed to work. There's no extra space characters where they shouldn't be, but I'll make sure in about 3 hours (after work). |

It's weird. It's still not working for any reasonable reasons...
Edit: I just saw the stock reactions extensions, that seems to work just fine, at least on it's own so far. All of them seem to work. If I try to add, for example, cubane, null reactants.

I had the same issue, are you sure you have the file ordering right? Chemical reactions outside the materials folder, fluids and their dissociation ions within?

If I try to add, for example, cubane, null reactants. Sounds like the issue then isn't the reactions but the fluids, maybe. Can you try pasting this exact txt file into the materials folder and see if it loads (go to NTR/RJ/MPDT design and search for cubane)? Given that as you've said even copying a stock thing doesn't work, maybe there's something up with your install (verify integrity on Steam) or a change to folder attributes (read-only, compressed, encrypted, that type of stuff).

I think you misunderstood what i was typing, as a result of me more doing a run on sentence/edit. The stock expansion works fine, but when I try and add other materials it doesn't for some reason. I tried the code you sent, still nope. I'll try validating the files next. Edit: All files successfully validated... Edit 2: I tried to make an NTR, Cubane isn't showing up either... so this is weird and probably has something to do with Fluids.txt. Edit 3: I checked to see if the files are read only, they aren't... The filename is correct and only using what you gave me under Materials... I give up for now. I've got no clue why it's doing this. |

Does anyone know why the refractive spectrum for white would come out gray? I'm totally stumped.

Has anyone considered uploading the entire compendium to the workshop? I think it has about ~200 materials and reactions by now.  |

Has anyone considered uploading the entire compendium to the workshop? I think it has about ~200 materials and reactions by now. O_o Yes. I tried following the instructions in the infolinks, using just a single material to start with, but didn't get it to work before giving up. someusername6 and I both favour something more like an installer where you can pick which elements you want, and which could manage required dependencies (a number of mods share monatomic ions, for example) and categories like 'current tech only' or 'current+future tech'. There has been some discussion and import of data to Github, but it's not quite as easy as expected. |

Time for some more nutty theoretical materials that make you scour the internet for 4 hours in order to get enough information to implement them GHNS (Graphene Hybrid Nanotube Structures) As far as I can tell from reading, these are more of a conventional 3D nanomaterial, like how Graphene has 2D and 3D versions (sorta), I'm not sure where the numbers on Nanotubes already here come from, but this seems less efficient, not really sure If I got the numbers right, nevertheless: Material Multiwall-CNT GHNS

RoughnessCoefficient 0.1Grabbed the data from two separate sources, it looks like the second source was testing different types of GHNS configurations, so I just took the one that gave the best results in their paper, and the results for the Youngs Modulus were different (by almost a factor of 10...) in each paper, the numbers are probably going to be a bit off. ac.els-cdn.com/S2210983817300561/1-s2.0-S2210983817300561-main.pdf?_tid=cfa35596-a67a-11e7-bbc5-00000aab0f6c&acdnat=1506843385_6f424b4a2091cfebccc717351d584fb8www.sci-en-tech.com/ICCM2014/PDFs/278-1445-1-PB.pdfAnything not in those is just taken from the carbon nanotubes already here.
