Let’s get some mod discussion going. Finally launched my first rocket early this year and have discovered the wonderful world of mods.
Personally, I’ve been playing a lot of seablock. For me, it is the best mod for doing it in small chunks. The lack of biters, the fact that I need to place landfill to start up a new area, it makes everything feel very intentional, I guess you could say. Versus normal factorio where expansion is the default.
Also have small SE and py saves going. SE only have the first few sciences and py only have basic power, so haven’t really explored deep at all into those.
My main modded save is a Bob’s+Angel’s run, currently about 85 hours in and I finally got modules and purple science. Next up is making cobalt for blue belts, which is needed for pink science, and then lithium-ion batteries. The base is one heck of a spaghetti mess.
I also have a lightly modded megabase with 260 hours. The mods are mostly just small stuff like aircraft, moar infinite research, and power armor MK3.
