About Node Upgrade
From ficsit.appPay items to raise or lower the purity of any resource node. Miners already built on it update instantly.
Node Upgrade
Not enough pure nodes? Make your own.
Aim at a resource node, press Y and pay with products you already make to raise its purity: Impure → Normal → Pure. Miners and extractors already on the node speed up immediately. Changed your mind? Downgrade it and get back 50% of what you paid.
Features
- Native-looking menu, in the game's language (13 languages). The key can be changed in Options > Controls.
- A hint under the game's own prompt, Press [Y] to upgrade this node, when you look at a node you can upgrade or at a miner on it. Press the key again to close the menu.
- Multiplayer (hosted game): every player can upgrade and downgrade with their own items, at the host's prices. Everyone needs the mod.
- Safe: nothing is taken if you lack items or room for a refund, and a node never goes below its original purity.
- Saved with your game. No impact on performance: no tick, no scan of the map.
- Prices can be edited in
