g [FIXED] Research requirments

7 months ago

Hi, never played the old version of the mod, but this looks cool and so have installed and planning to restart.

One question that stood out to me in how late game is the second research added by the mod "Deep Core Mining Drill" supposed to be?
It looks to only take Red, Green, Blue and Purple Science. However it requires "Productivity Module 3", that will require Agricultural Science, and so setting up a Gleba base.

I think it would be better to remove that research requirement, or alternatively if you actually want to lock this behind Gleba it might look better if it required Agricultural and Space Science packs.

Hello, thank you for your message.

Good point, this is an oversight from the Space Age update, I'll take a look to adjust this. I also need to review the Deep Core Drill as it doesn't have any advantage for now as chunks from patches are not working yet.

Glad you found it helpful.
I have not played up to unlocking that yet on my new play through, but from reading the tech tree it all looks good to me.
