Lignumis

Lignumis

This mod extends the early game of Space Age by putting you on the moon "Lignumis" before you escape to Nauvis. It concentrates on wood and steam technologies, giving you some early game production chains for those resources.

The is the mainstream version of the mod with very few changes outside of Lignumis. For the full experience as intended by me, install the Director's Cut.

Planet perks

Early bots

Unlock early personal bots with steam science even before reaching Nauvis. Start with 10 construction bots and upgrade to up to 30 with the heavy armor unlocked with automation science.

There is even a setting to move personal bots to wood science and buff them a bit to get them basically at game start.

New belt tier: Wooden belts

This new low-fidelity tier of belts is incredibly cheap and can be used for those low throughput applications.

Exported buildings: Lumber mill and burner agricultural tower

These burner buildings help with wood production on other planets and the lumber mill grants a 50% productivity bonus for wood-based items.

Exported products: Processing units and low density structures

These items are especially cheap to craft on Lignumis and can be exported to other planets that could use the resources better for other things.

Alternative recipes

The Lignumis plastic recipe can be used on other planets just with wood and water. Bring some peat and gold stromatolite seeds for the starter culture. Improve it even more by using the biochamber once unlocked.

Nutrients from wood pulp can be used on all planets for easy nutrients production.

Increased astroids

Lignumis orbit has increased amounts of astroids that also have an even distribution. That makes it ideal to jumpstart new space ships and for production platforms.

Late game technology: Quality assembler
