Is this mod dead or will it ever be updated in any way again?

0.17 update?

Good news folks, I'm not dead! I have finished my PhD and am now available to occasionally maintain this!

Welcome back and congratulations on a PhD!

I just installed mod but I'm scratching my head here trying to start the playthrough. First map everything was shallow water and couldn't build anything, second I made sure to get started on land but cannot figure out how to actually do anything since the water is methane and I cannot find any recipes to use it. Coal and wood and wood pellets cannot be used as fuel but I did find a small patch of ice! :)

What am I missing here?? What is used for fuel?

EDIT: Seems the Ice patch I found is the key to my troubles. Let me expand off this very small patch I found and I'll return if I experience anymore hang-ups.

Yeah, those are the challenges of this pack. Except the land all being shallow water, that's a bug which I thought I'd fixed.

I'm going to modify the tutorial research tree to make it a bit more obvious what you should do in the start, and tweak the generation of ice (which should be the only ore, but plentiful).

So, I'm trying to make the circuit board, but I can't figure out how to get cellulose fiber. What am I missing?

Edit: nevermind. I didn't see the green algae -> fibers craft
