New mod: Old School Rocket Difficulty
Posted: Mon Nov 24, 2025 5:32 pm
2.0 drastically reduced the resource requirements to launch a rocket in the base game, removing much of the end-game challenge.
This mod restores that challenge by adding the removed ingredients directly to the rocket part recipe:
- 50 advanced circuits
- 50 electronic circuits
These circuits used to come from the Speed Modules required to build 10 now-deprecated Rocket Control Units per rocket part, and were a major resource sink.
