📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Turns biter farming into a real resource loop—ore to metal to gear feels rewarding.
  • Hyper-Modules add a long-term grind that actually scales with your combat.
  • Plays nice with popular enemy overhauls, so you can stack the chaos.

⚠️ Cons

  • Only 4.7 endorsements suggests it's not widely tested—expect rough edges.
  • No explicit version info, so it might break with recent Factorio updates.
  • Compatibility is stated but not verified for all mod combinations—risk of conflicts.
🎯 Is This For You?
If you're a Factorio veteran who wants combat to matter beyond defense, this is for you. Also great for modpack players who already run Rampant or Bob's Enemies and want a loot incentive to fight back.
📦 Install:Easy· Under 1 minute

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Pair it with Rampant or Bob's Enemies to make biter waves more frequent and get more ore drops.
  • Focus on Hyper-Modules early—they level up with kills, so start stacking them before endgame.
  • Smelt alien ore in batches; it's a new resource, so plan your smelting layout to avoid bottlenecks.
