Turn gold into an industrial economy. Refine ore, mint coins, restore the Grand Exchange, fund expeditions, socket gems, and power advanced machines with currency.

i just uploaded a new version that allows you to pick 'normal, reduce or disable' 'expedetion threats' in the mod settings at the bottom during new game creation
