Old School Rocket Difficulty

Factorio 2.0 drastically reduced the resource requirements to launch a rocket in the base game, removing much of the end-game challenge.

This mod restores that challenge by adding the removed ingredients directly to the rocket part recipe:

• 50 advanced circuits
• 50 electronic circuits

These circuits used to come from the Speed Modules required to build 10 now-deprecated Rocket Control Units per rocket part, and were a major resource sink.

Settings

• Pre-2.0 (default) - Restores original rocket part requirements
• Pre-2.0 Marathon - 4x multiplier on all ingredients for an extra challenge

Compatibility

Compatible with Space Age, but automatically disabled when Space Age is active (as rockets work differently in the expansion).
