Addition to the v16 release | v16.1


Added new campaign maps: Duality Pressure Fallen Legion Afterdark Requiem


Changed some blocks plases in tech tree

Global Update #16.0 | v16.0


This is a global mod update, as well as a long-awaited one. Contains a large pile of recycled, as well as deleted content. The update only touched on Serpulo, we will be dealing with Erekir soon and the next big update should bring the same amount of new content to it.

Update to v15.0 Erekir Edition | v15.0


In this update, I have added content for Erekir. Power blocks, turrets, walls and a bit of production. The Indigo faction was the first to visit Erekir and made its own technologies for it. The expected resource - Sapphire - has been added to the mod, it can be obtained exclusively on Erekir. Sapphire is also particularly in demand by the Indigo faction. The freezer now uses a new improved multi-craft library, the link will be in the README. Some sprites have been resprited and some bugs fixed.

Update #14.0 | v14.0


Yes, I forgot to make a release.

In this update, some turrets were rebalanced, and again there were different redraws of some blocks.

As you may have noticed, I recently added to the mod the ability to attack turrets and the second type of attack. I made stats for it, which is displayed in the ammunition of the turret.

I have improved the descriptions of some blocks, objects and liquids by specifying a more detailed purpose for them.

This time, the mod was called a much larger number of turrets than last time. We were given some sprites, which served as ideas for new turrets. However, I redrawn all these turrets, as they were not in the best shape.

Now I am developing a separate mod branch with content for Erekir. So far, a separate branch will be a separate mod. I will migrate the entire mod when I can make sure enough people have switched to v7.

I think I've listed all the new and changed content. We have made a new icon for the mod yet.

Good luck playing with the update!

Update #13.0 | v13.0


Here's the update.

In this update, a number of resprites, redesigns, small visual changes, changes in the mechanics of some turrets were made.

I hasten to warn you that the walls of coal have been removed and a new turret with similar mechanics has come to replace the armed wall. The separator of combustible materials has also been removed, because he doesn't fit in production and does not correspond to any logical explanations.

A couple of new resources have appeared into the mod and so far they are only suitable as ammunition. And, well, if you want to see and put up walls made of them, then go ahead for the loot!

I also added a bigger surge smelter. For what? I will answer: One of the parts of the content in mod now needs a particularly surge alloy, and you know perfectly well what the difficulty of extracting it with a vanilla smelter is.

I thought, since there is burner generator and a decay generator, then why don't I make a charge generator? Here, an electrogenerator, 2x2 blocks in size.

Now the extraction of creostone has become a little more affordable, I have added a 2x2 factory.

Where to go without turrets? Almost every faction received new turrets, not even one.

Speaking of factions, in the description of the github mod, I left a small spoiler about the new faction. So, I present to your attention a new faction "Emerald Light". The fraction is connected with heal and life, in terms of physical condition. So far, only 3 turrets have been added, a pair of attacking and one buffing.

"Military Defense" has already acquired two cores. Now the fraction is divided into color categories. Cores have been added for the yellow and purple division.

Surge Stone and Charged Lead have been added as ammunition for some vanilla turrets.

Now you can defend yourself with globium walls.

I've added teleporter to instantly transport items from one place to another, but the range is limited to 200 blocks.

You can observe that all the blocks in the menu have acquired their own order in which they stand, and you can also observe that Lambda now has 2 engines.

Some bugs have been fixed, and the mod icon has also been updated.

I hope I explained everything in detail and didn't miss anything. Good luck playing with the update.

Update #12.0 | v12.0


Innovations: [ Turrets: [ The "Military Defense" faction: { Melinite 1x1 Shoots an acid projectile, causing damage to the area.

Uses Globium as an amplifier.

Crystal Accelerator 3x3 Accelerates your buildings in the area of action. Requires silicon and phase fabric. But in future updates it will use a completely different resource.

Upon contact with an enemy bullet, it releases lightning. It's unit: Azure Wing. Shoots, multiplying when hit, with an arrow. Releases lightnings when moving.

Added a new sector on the Serpulo. Creotite Power Plant. Capture the Nuclear Complex to unlock.

A couple of new status effects: Small Flaming and Acid corrosion.

Of the innovations, this is all for now.

Let's move on to the changes: Turrets of the Crimson Agate faction were assigned a natural color. Sparrow Lightning has been slightly improved. Now it's firing scarlet explosive shells.

Due to numerous errors, I have slightly altered the conditions for the research of some blocks, and also, creotite will now be possible to research only after the capture of the power station.

Improved textures: A Small Drill, A Laser Crushing Plant, A Sand Mine.

Blocks of Creostone were assigned black as the main color. These blocks are considered heat-resistant, and accordingly some textures have undergone changes in their shape.

Status effect «Small Flaming» has been added to the laser array

Armed walls can be controlled again.

Power generation bar at the "Cage" core was repaired.

The turret Blade was resprited, as well as its mechanics were redesigned. Blade fires a debilitating circular saw with a curly shape, which, when the maximum range is reached, returns back along the same trajectory.

Impulse. Simplified the name of the Impulse Turret.

Cloud Breaker. It was redrawn, and its ammunition was also revised.

Needle. Added pyrotite as ammunition. Needle will be effective for destroying enemy buildings if it consumes Creostone. In the case of pyrothite, the Needle will be effective for destroying units, dealing 650 base damage and imposing a flaming status, which deals 300 damage within one second. Efficiency will increase if the enemy is covered with oil.

Mortar. Ammunition was revised for it.

Warhead.

And a new 4x4 turret - Blade. Shoots three spinning circular saws that pierces enemies, dealing them 100 damage.

Armed and Projector walls can now be replaced with regular walls directly.

Armed Walls is an improved name for wall-turrets.

The Cryocube Wall now freezes enemies if they get too close.

The acceleration radius of the Creostone Wall was equated to the radius of the Mender.

The damage and range of the Brazier was cut.

The freezing projector was renamed the Spraying Projector and redesigned. The spraying projector emits waves, which imposes a certain, depending on the incoming item, status effect on enemies.

The decal of the Oil pump has been replaced with a simpler one.

The sprite of the Laser Crashing Plant was more detailed.

The rotator of the small drill was redrawn.

The texture of the medium solar panel has also been improved.


A new 6x6 "Cage" core and its flying Lambda combat unit were added.

Several new items have been added: Charged lead Charged rod Charged Ingot Charged ring-shaped cylinder Surge Stone

New liquid: Surge mass. With the help of some machinations, I added a stat charge to this liquid

Also the factories that produce these resources: I would have made only one multicraft from all these factories, but there were some problems requiring serious solutions, so I have divided the lead charger into several {Stick Charger Ingot Charger Ringshaped cylinder charger} Electric Mixer

Surge stone is produced by the Freezer.

A new "Overload" status has also been added.

A new projector has been added. A Push projector. Pushes back approaching enemies.

The principle of Glaciation operation has been changed. Now this status is activated only when interacting with moisture, completely immobilizing the enemy for a while and causing damage to him at the same time.

More on this when I'm done with the map.

I also fixed the multi-crafter's code and now it works correctly again, but already on the 7.0 builds.

At the request of the author, I also allocated a separate repository for multi-lib.js - 3Snake3/multi-lib, where I indicated the original source, added the file itself, a file with a detailed example of how to make a multi-crafter yourself.
