Combining solarCells to get higher quality solarCells.

[usHallgrim]

I am working on a solar power mod. I have harvesting solar panels working how I want. Now I am trying to create a recipe that turns count="4" quality=1 solarCell into count="1" quality=2 solarCell. So 4Q1 > 1Q2, then 4Q2 > 1Q3 and so on.

But this:

<recipe name="solarCell" count="1" craft_area="workbench">
    <ingredient name="solarCell" count="4" quality="1"/>
    <crafting_quality value="2"/>
</recipe>

Crafts 1 Quality 1 solarCell. I want to bypass the progression.xml if possible. Not sure if this is possible any help would be much appreciated!
