Hard Gleba


Tweaks to Gleba. Gleba items spoil faster, and researching the heating tower now requires agricultural science packs which incentivizes building a small science chain on Gleba. Vanilla+.

Hard Gleba

Tweaks to Gleba. Part of Hard 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 Gleba.
  • Gleba item spoilage time is set to 70%.
    • Gleba items are defined as those with a default import location of Gleba.
    • Agricultural science packs are excluded from this change.
  • The heating tower requires agricultural science to research. As with other Hardcore planets, this incentivizes a small science build prior to launching a rocket.
  • Coal synthesis is unlocked earlier. In effect, this moves forward the unlock of handheld rocket launchers (whereas rocket turrets are unaffected.)

Special thanks

Thanks to NekoBaron for suggesting moving the coal synthesis recipe earlier, allowing for handheld rocket launchers as a tool in Hard Mode early Gleba runs.
