Planet Vesta


A gas giant in the distance. There appears to be a lone chunks of rock spread about in the almost concerningly thick atmosphere. Vesta is the gas world, and all about gases. There are quite a few ways to play the mod: Easy Mode, which features a reduced recipe chain. Less intermediates, less structures. Platform Mode, which removes the rock formations and places you on a lone platform. Realistic Gases Mode, which replaces all the icons and world generation with more realistic colors.

I've really enjoyed this mod so far! The gas and algae theme is really interesting. I have a complete spaghetti network of pipes running all over the place and it's super cool-ant. A couple quick thoughts:

  1. I struggled a bit with finding a patch of hydrogen sulfide. I'm hesitant to run around exploring on modded planets for a couple reasons, and it wasn't clear to me that I needed to go further afield for this. It would be great if it could be marked on the map?
  2. Similarly I struggled a bit with finding helium. I guess helium and nitrogen look pretty similar? Both kinda white. Personally I'm fine with abandoning color realism, if helium on Vesta is like, bright green so it's easier to see that would work for me.
  3. I ran into a small bug/edge case using the new thruster, specifically making the Plasma hydrogenated fuel. I was attempting to use a "Cryo Plant with E.A.R.S." from the Rabbasca mod (https://mods.factorio.com/mod/planet-rabbasca) and the plasma refused to connect. It worked fine with the regular Cryo plant so I'm pretty sure it's the interaction of your two mods that creates this. NBD just throwing it out there.

Overall great mod, love it! Thanks!
