About Rocks must Die!
From Factorio Mod PortalTanks destroy rocks in one hit. That's all.
Tanks destroy rocks in one hit when colliding with them. They'll still slow you down, though!
After several incidents where getting stuck on rocks destroyed both me and my tank, I may have gotten a little bit bent on revenge...
This mod is very specific - it does not change any other behaviour, except there is a setting to make it work for all cars.
Alternative mods:
- Exploration Vehicle 2.0: Clears rocks and trees in an area around the vehicle.
- Tank Buff plus: Solves the problem by buffing the tank's stats instead.
