Who would like to use this mod? Anyone who wants to flavour their stockish game a little, without jumping down a realism rabbit hole.
Rather than having a single non descriptive Ore for mining and converting to anything and possibly everything, this mod removes the stock Ore and replaces it.
HydrateOre ices, and is used for making LiquidFuel or as a part of Life Support mods.
Saturate effectively liquid HydrateOre. Where this is availble, either on the surface or under pressure, it requires less energy than HydrateOre to mine and process, but is not widely available.
NaturalOre is used to generate MetalParts to build rockets (using Extraplanetary Launchpads).
RareOre is used to generate CustomParts used to build rockets (using Extraplanetary Launchpads), and also in Life Support mods.
XenonGas is able to be to extracted from the atmosphere of certain planets.
ArgonGas is now available without CRP for mods
StoredCharge is now available without CRP for mods specifically NearFuture Electrical. NuclearFuel and NuclearWaste are the fuels for reactors in NearFuture Electrical.
CyroFuel is now available for CryoEngines and CryoTanks and replaces LqdMethane LH2 was been replaced CryoTanks, CryoEngines, and Kerbal Atomics for LFO engines, with names patched too.
Asteroids contain NaturalOre, with a possibility of HydrateOre and/or RareOre.
Comets contain HydrateOre only.
In addition, this mod configures the extraordinary Extraplanetary Launchpads originally by skykooler, and maintained by taniwha.
Two resources are introduced for this purpose, extending the vanilla approach of EL.
MetalParts and
CustomParts are used in a unique recipes, making off world construction a little more complicated with two resources needed.
Requires Module Manager (not included).
