The goal of the mod is to enhance sub-surface gameplay and make it worthwhile to build structures and explore deep below the surface. Personally I find the surface (placer) mining mechanic of the game to be the weakest gameplay loop in an otherwise amazing game. I'm striving to make mining in Stationeers a more enjoyable experience :-)

New features in 0.2.0

  • ✔️ No more lava/bedrock texture at unrealistic depths
  • ✔️ Doubled GPR (ground penetrating radar) scan radius (configurable)

Existing features

  • ✔️ Lowered bedrock depth - default 4x deeper than vanilla (configurable)
  • ✔️ Increasing ore yields the deeper you go
  • ✔️ Faster drilling speeds

Compatibility

With existing saves

  • This mod is compatible with existing saves and will not corrupt them when you install or uninstall the mod

With other mods

  • Not sure about this one, but I'd be hesitant to run this mod with any other terrain generation/ore rebalancing mods.
