✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Skip the early grind—you're building bots from minute one, which is a huge time-saver.
- Mech Armor is endgame gear, so you're practically invincible early on—great for testing or relaxed play.
- 36k downloads with zero endorsements suggests it's quietly popular, likely because it just works without fuss.
⚠️ Cons
- Zero endorsements might mean it's not battle-tested by the community, so expect potential bugs.
- Starting with endgame gear can trivialize early-game challenges, making it less fun for balanced playthroughs.
- Compatibility with other mods isn't guaranteed—if you run a heavy modlist, you might hit conflicts.
This is for players who want to skip early-game logistics and focus on megabase building or mod testing. It's also great for veterans who've played the early game a hundred times and just want to get to the fun part. If you're a new player, it might spoil the progression, so maybe save it for later.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're using Krastorio 2, make sure to load this mod after it in the mod list to ensure proper compatibility.
- With Quality enabled, you can start with higher-quality bots if you're lucky—check your inventory for any quality bonuses.
- Use the early roboports to automate your base from the start, but be mindful of your power grid—mech armor drains energy fast.
