i Wood darts in space

6 days ago

Hello, first of all - thanks for the mod, it's really fun! And nice music choice :)

What I've come across is that when you're building your first platforms and have progressive bullets recipe enabled, it's really hard to maintain production using Astroponics. You need two wood for one magazine, produce like 0.25/s wood per Space garden, and can't even use the Lumber mill in Space. Since I don't want my space platforms to contain mostly wood growing, I disabled the progressive recipe for bullets.

I just wanted to ask, is this intended behavior? I feel like the mod is the most immersive when you have everything progressive enabled, but this was a dealbreaker for me. A suggestion would be to enable Lumber mills in space (maybe a vacuum-proof version of it through a pre-space travel technology?) and make the bullets cost 1 Lumber, that way you can double dip productivity through the Lumber mill. Or make the Space garden faster/smaller..

Thank you for your hard work!

Hi. How fast wood is produced in space is determined by the mod Astroponics. Feedback about that should be given there.

However, Lignumis adds Astroponics productivity research, giving +50% bonus on max level 5. That's for the lumber mill that you cannot use in space. Together with speed modules 2, you get very close to 1 wood/s per space garden. That improves further with speed modules 3 and quality. With everything legendary you get close to 6 wood/s. Do beacons work in space?

I think the balancing is ok(-ish). I wouldn't be mad if the base speed of the space garden would be increased a bit, but I wouldn't complain about how it currently is. Maybe start a discussion for the Astroponics mod and see where it leads to.

Honestly it would just feel great if there were a more high tech version of the lumber mill that you could use on space platforms. I think that in itself would be good enough. And in the late game it shouldn't be such a problem producing darts in space, but specifically when building your first platforms, i feel like the production needed for just basic ammo is insane. Anyway ty for the feedback!
