About Useful Methane
From Factorio Mod PortalWish you could do more with Cerysian methane than flatulate? Look no further than this mod! Useful Methane introduces a logistical challenge that requires science imports to Cerys to research the methane technology chain and exports of barreled methane to the inner-planets. These technologies provide powerful new biochamber recipes. Make your Gleba spaghetti even more rewarding!
This mod is still in early development. Any feedback on balancing or suggestions for more content would be appreciated! Would also love some help making better icons for the recipes/technologies.
I'm more reachable on GitHub than I am on here. Please open up issues on there if anything breaks for more timely responses.
