Hardcore Vulcanus
Tweaks to Vulcanus. Part of Hardcore Mode, though this mod is standalone.
Tweaks
Each tweak can be disabled by a setting.
- A special new technology is required to drop cargo (excluding construction bots) on Vulcanus.
- The territory of each demolisher is smaller (meaning more demolishers.)
- Demolishers move faster when disturbed (up to +50%).
- The Vulcanus starting area is much smaller.
- Rock yields are increased to compensate for fewer rocks in the starting area.
- Foundry recipes beyond liquids and plate crafting are locked behind a new technology, 'Advanced casting'. As with other Hardcore planets, this incentivizes a small science build prior to launching a rocket.
- The temperature of steam produced by acid neutralisation is reduced to 165 degrees (matching the temperature of steam produced by boilers), making energy more of a constraint.
Special Thanks
- Tserup contributed the advanced casting technology icon.
