Burning Cargo Pods
Start on each planet afresh. Dropping cargo safely from space platforms requires pods made out of materials native to the planet in question.
- Pod items are spent from the platform hub when a drop occurs. The player thus starts on each planet afresh.
- Players can drop without protection, but explode on entry and must recover their bodies after respawning.
- A minimum number of stacks for resource drops is configurable in the platform hub GUI.
This mod was originally how Space Age: Hard Mode limited cargo drops on Vulcanus, Fulgora and Gleba. This mod was changed to an optional dependency when that modpack switched to a simpler system of locking cargo drops behind special technologies. They are still compatible however, with this mod’s cargo pod item recipe being unlocked by the special technology if available.
