 bzzirconium-recipe-bypass=Skip modifying these recipes (comma-separated list).
 bzzirconium-byproduct=If enabled and using Titanium mod, zirconia production will output titanium as a byproduct.
 bzzirconium-enable-intermediates=Enable cermet, an advanced intermediate made from ceramics and metals.
 bzzirconium-enable-sorting=Enable "sorting" recipes to convert between zircon and stone. This is no longer as useful for burner phase as it used to be, but left as an option for certain map layouts or existing factories.
+bzzirconium-early=If [color=green]enabled[\color], zircon is required in small quantities early in the game.\nIf [color=orange]disabled[/color], zircon is not required until after logistic science.
