Mithril/Orichalcum Consistency Patch (MO + Joes Tweaks)
Medieval Overhaul adds a plasteel ore labeled "Mithril Ore" that is supposed to refine into a mithril ingot but the plasteel resource itself was never renamed. Similarly, Joe's Tweaks does the same for uranium as "Oricalcum" but suffers from the same problem. This patch updates the labels and descriptions for the refined resources, as well as the spelling of Orichalcum as it is the spelling I'm more familiar with.
Joe's Tweaks adds the smelting recipes for Orichalcum to the "Plasteel" research project (renamed "Mithril" by MO). As the project now includes more than just mithril, I changed the research project label to "Advanced Metallurgy" and updated the description to include both metals. Joe's Tweaks also adds both ores to the MO mine shaft but only as a work intensive single ore. I added in the bulk recipes and adjusted the work values to something I find more reasonable while also being more laborious than other metals.
I also updated the stuff and mineable ore colors of Orichalcum to match the purple of Joe's ingot as getting uranium gray out of that is a tragedy. As a bonus, I updated the stuff color of Mithril as well to the teal of the ingot. To be clear, this mod contains no textures. The ingot textures from JoeOwnage are unmodified and the color of the stuff is picked directly off the ingots. I did not notice until I put the old and new screenshots together that the ambient lighting made the mithril appear much greener in the new screenshot, the ingots are in fact still the same color and the new stuff color matches that.
This mod is safe to add midsave. Removal midsave should be mostly safe. The text and colors will harmlessly revert if removed but there may be some minor errors if one of the added mine recipes was in progress during removal. For best practice, stop and delete any bills for mining bulk mithril and/or orichalcum before removal.
It is entirely possible that I missed a name or description somewhere so if you run into any instances of "plasteel" or "uranium" in your fantasy world please let me know and I will update. Please feel free to share your thoughts as well!
