Mining Drones improved Tech

ABy AivanF

I love Mining Drones mod, but the original recipe looks too imbalanced: it requires nothing but raw iron! No need to place miners & belts almost for free, with even no electricity usage! This mod fixes the balance by: 1. Adding a technology needed to be researched before you can create mining drones and depot. 2. Making the recipe harder yet customizable with startup settings. DEPRECATED: Consider updating to Mining Drones Remastered

I love Mining Drones mod, but the original recipe looks too imbalanced: it requires nothing but raw iron! No need to place miners & belts almost for free, with even no electricity usage!

This mod fixes the balance

  1. Adding a technology needed to be researched before you can create mining drones and depot.
  2. Making the recipe harder yet customizable with startup settings: besides iron, gears and sticks, you can add steel, green/red/blue circuits, heat/electric engine, battery. Required technologies & science packs will be adjusted by the settings you picked.
  3. Also, in case you're crazy, there are additional settings to disable Burner and/or Electric Mining Drills.

Since now, creating mining drones feels like a desired reward! ^_^

Note that my mod is not a fork of Klonan's Mining Drones mod, instead it's a patch for original one, so that it can be installed together with other non-fork mods.

Marketing!

To protect and expand your factory, I suggest using rifles from another my mod :)
