Author notes
You can use and abuse this mod for your own purposes. Somebody really should make this mod with that mod builder script thingy. That would be better than this version.

Version 1.0.0
Initial Release
There was a bug that allowed you to create unlimited amounts of four elements - Copper, Indium, Emeril, and Cadmium. You could use 1 unit of the element and 1 Chromatic Metal to create 4 of the source element. You could then turn right around and create more Chromatic Metal using 2 or less of the created elements at a net gain. Some of the elements created more Chromatic Metal than the others depending on their rarity, with Indium being the most efficient.
The interwebs got all excited about this bug and the associated exploit, even christening it the "Chromatic Expansion". You can Google it. It was a thing. Actually, people crying like whiny little babies about missing this exploit would probably be one of the top hits, based on what I found, because it got patched somewhere along the line. Point at the small minded people crying and whining like little babies. Laugh mockingly at their ridiculous hysteria. Your mockery is the only way they'll learn.
So anyway, I completely missed this exploit, and I was crying hysterically like a whiny little baby about it. Okay, maybe I'm being hyperbolic about the sentiment around this, but I definitely did grunt disapprovingly, and I'm standing by that one. That's when I threw together this mod to reintroduce the Chromatic Expansion exploit.
Modifies NMS_REALITY_GCRECIPETABLE and will conflict with any other mod that also targets this file.
This mod is perfect for using that mod scripting engine thingy so it doesn't get out of date. Someone should totally steal this idea and make a version that plugs into that.
