DEPRECATED. Moved to Explosive Excavation Continued (https://mods.factorio.com/mod/explosive_excavation_continued)
Providing the player with new tools or adjusting the game interface, without fundamentally changing gameplay.
Version: 2.0.0
Date: 09. 08. 2026
Bugfixes:
- Fixed that the mod failed to load on Factorio 2.1.7 and later: RecipePrototype `category` was removed and merged into `categories`.
- Fixed that the item and technology icons pointed at `__Explosive Excavation__`, which is not this mod's name, so sprite loading failed.
- Fixed that blasting charges could be placed on space platform foundation; the tiles are now restored and the charges refunded.
Changes:
- Declared dependencies: base >= 2.1.14, optional Space Age, and incompatible with the original Explosive Excavation mod.
- Removed an unused icon and shrank the thumbnail from 1024x1024 to 256x256, cutting the download from 1.4 MB to about 180 KB.
- Planets are now identified through the surface's planet prototype instead of the surface name, so renamed and scripted surfaces behave correctly.
- The item now sorts after the Space Age terrain items instead of tying with artificial yumako soil.
