No Amino Acids!

The Draconis mod is amazing. It adds a race of dragonic aliens with strong equipment options... But the crafting system is... less than optimized. You have to break raw materials down into molecules before forming them into amino acids and then into proteins... Which wouldn't be too much of a problem if doing so didn't take hours for just a few weapons. That doesn't even mention the fact that each protein requires about 17 amino acids, far more items than Starbound can display on most resolutions. It's impractical and annoying at best, insanely frustrating at worst.

But now you don't need to worry about that! This mod skips the middle men that are the amino acids, changing the recipes for the proteins so they take molecules instead. Note that this does not change the amount of molecules required. I made a spreadsheet to make sure that the number of molecules required is accurate... And if I'm wrong, I will gladly change it. The point isn't to make the Draconis crafting easier so much as less frustrating to deal with. Also, with any luck, if for some reason you want the old recipes, removing this mod should turn them back to normal.

A word of warning: Since the amino acids are only used to make proteins, this mod will make any amino acids you have stored pretty much useless. They have no other use, so they'll be pretty much junk.

A HUGE thanks to Azure Fang for helping me figure out patches and how to make this load over the Draconis mod.
