Pelagos in itself is an interesting challenge in space management and logistics, so i would at least give it a try. My friend just really doesnt like the spoiling science mechanic, even if the science is 'free', he considers it a waste and annoying, which is why i made the mod for our modded playthrough, and the dev considers pelagos to be all about spoilage, so it runs counter to their intended way of play for their mod. So they didn't want people to immeaditly download this mod and 'cheapen' the experience afaik.
