Description

This mod changes the recipes of (almost) all buildings such that they require no ingredients and are crafted incredibly fast.

Exceptions include solar panels and accumulators -- no free energy for you.

Recently added a mod option for making modules free in the same way as buildings. I added this as a mod option because modules are needed for building tons of things, but also represent a significant resource sink in any base.

Compatibility

Can be installed / uninstalled without issue in an ongoing game.

Background

A bit of a sidegrade to another of my mods, Your Cheap Mode, which makes everything cost fewer resources to create. I found that I quite missed the rivers of material flowing throughout my base, and wound up creating this mod to enjoy the unrestricted building without resorting to playing the game in editor mode.

If you are a fan of the game shapez, or enjoy playing in editor mode but wish it didn't feel so cheaty, this mod may be exceptionally to your liking!

Recommendations

I recommend using some kind of item-voiding mod, so that you can dispose of any extra buildings that you end up with in your logistic network.
