About Space Travel +

From Factorio Mod Portal

Changes space travel for the better (or worse) Significantly increases the challenge of designing spaceships This mod tests your patience

[V 0.1.5 EXPERIMENTAL] Compatibility fix for Redrawn Space Connections and Starmap Background

[MOD IS IN ALPHA] Please raise all the issues you encounter

Makes space travel more realistic, by making the distance from planets be more realistic and modifying spaceship acceleration to be almost like real life

Distances are multiplied by a factor of 100 (can be modified) Trips can take over 30 mins for basic interplanetary logistics, requiring good planning for spaceship logistics There is a speed limit equal to the speed of light

The modified thrust expressions make it so that there is no space drag This may seem like a good change, but acceleration is massively buffed, and if thrust isn't controlled properly you will crash into asteroids Moreover there is no current mechanism for speed reduction This also has the issue that your ship may survive 2/3rds of the journey and breakdown near the end :(

To counter this, Asteroids are nerfed to give you a fighting chance

For spoilables to be transportable over long times, spoilables do not spoil in space!

Should be compatible with all modded planets
