Just curious why this mod was even made.

This mod increases the complexity of factories needed to beat the game. Players can choose which game they wish to play, and some may prefer this.

Some have expressed the view that qualitycycling makes little sense from a flavor perspective.

Most proximately, at Comfy Industries we often look to give players a range of different play experiences in our multiplayer servers to keep it interesting. We’re running a Fulgora Start server this weekend, and wish to make beating Fulgora a larger operation.

I suggested it because I got tired of fulgo players making craft and destroy loops for everything trying to make quality parts (which was often leading to bases which would destroy 90% of resources) so its to discourage that but I also suggested buffing the moduals slightly as an option to compensate. This also means that adding quality moduals to miners is the better way to get quality parts.
