I.R.O.N. - improved mining

Description
I.R.O.N. or Ignored Resource Operations Novelties
Victoria 3 suffers from chronic basic resources shortages, and big empty space on tech tree, with no mining improvement. This mod sees to fix those problems.


What it does?
Adds 3 new production methods are added, for every single mine:
  • Improved Condensing Engine Pump - unlocked with Rotary Valve Engine tech
  • Ore conveyor - unlocked with Conveyors tech
  • Electric Drill - unlocked with Electrical Capacitors tech

Improved Diesel Pump PM in mines.

One new PM in oil rigs, Advanced Steam-Powered Derricks, and rebalance of old ones (increased oil output, added tools input).


Save compatibility
It's.

Mod compatibility
This mod should be compatible with anything, that doesn't change existing PM groups for mines and oil rigs.
Map mods should be fine.

Compatches:


Plans for the future
Custom icons should be added, and probably some further balance would help.

I have made a compatch which improves the behaviour of uranium mines when running Morgenrote with this: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3543693439

@Expert Memeologist I'm somewhat shilling my own mod here but it should cover the rubber thing somewhat as it adds a separate irrigation PM to all agriculture/plantations, including rubber.

Found this mod via MasterOfGrey's Basic Resources Pack , so they should work together fine.

Would you be willing to adjust existing and add new PMs for rubber plantations? Ik the mod mostly addresses mining but since you added a PM for oil rigs i thought it might be interested in adding something to rubber plantations too given how annoying the rubber shortage late game is. Something like electric water pumps would make sense imo.

@Calista Calliopée Manstainne thanks for noticing, I've saved with BOM this time and updated the mod, can you confirm again if it works now?

You forgot changing encoding from of chinese localisation files, it should be UFT-8 with BOM. Now all chinese translations are not working.

I've also added translations from @Celestial and Calista Calliopée Manstainne
if you could confirm that it is working, it would be great.

I've updated the mod for new game update.

I have added this to my main recommendation collection, on the basis that it still appears to work for 1.9 just fine.
If you aren't planning to maintain this though, please let me know as I would gladly take over support/partner with you for this to stay up to date.
