TERRA NAUVIS
SAME SPACE AGE, NEW CHALLENGE
Complete overhaul.
Nauvis has everything. Everything is on Nauvis.
Early-bird release. Tweaks will be made
The Unified Ecosystem
Welcome to the ultimate survival crucible. This overhaul consolidates the entire Space Age progression onto a single, hyper-dense, and highly contested Nauvis grid, forcing you to fight for every tile of territory. * All Planets, One Map: Every required resource from the expanded universe is now native to the Nauvis substrate. * Biological Warzone: All enemy variants, including mini demolishers, share the same ecosystem and aggressively defend their territory. * Dynamic Threat Scaling: The local fauna features leveled enemies that relentlessly escalate in power as your pollution footprint expands.
The Zed Economy
Warfare is no longer just a resource sink; it is a highly exploitable logistical loop. By harvesting the apex threats on the map, you can directly fund your factory's expansion through a localized black-market trading system. * Chitin Harvesting: Slain enemies leave behind biological chitin on the battlefield. * Meet Zed: A friendly, localized biter shop owner who buys your raw scrap and chitin in exchange for usable credits. * Automated Arms Dealing: Spend your credits at Zed's shop to purchase high-end weaponry, featuring an interface that can be fully automated into your factory's logistics network.
Engineered Friction (Challenge Mode)
This is not a casual sandbox. The environment is unforgiving, and the baseline physics of the grid demand absolute precision, caution, and structural respect from your engineering. * Pave the World: Buildings can no longer be ghosted onto raw dirt; physical foundations (stone brick or better) are strictly required. * Volatile Logistics: Petroleum products will catch fire and explode if mishandled, and military science packs are highly unstable. * Advanced Manufacturing: Standard science progression is heavily gated behind strict void and glass bottle manufacturing chains.
Built-In Quality of Life
To help you survive the absolute brutality of the overhauled grid, baseline movement and interaction mechanics have been significantly upgraded to keep your momentum moving forward. * Acrobatic Traversal: Press Spacebar to physically jump over environmental hazards and dense factory infrastructure. * Advanced Mining: Execute an immediate Auto-Mine sweep simply by holding Ctrl+Shift+Right-Click. * Integrated Standards: Essential movement and interaction tweaks, including full Squeak Through functionality, are baked directly into the core code.
