Tired of having to run around picking up resources by hand and carrying coal around for the first 30 - 45 minutes of the game? I know I am!
That's why I never start a new game without the excellent Nico's Quick Start Mod! This mod has changed my life - and for the better!
Never again do I have to break my fists trying to chop down trees without an axe because I spent those precious metal plates on a useless burner inserter, or run back and forth for minutes because the coal and iron ore patches just happened to be 2km apart.
