✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 562 endorsements and 11,581 downloads.
- Gives you a real choice: 1.5x for a subtle boost or 2x for a more noticeable edge.
- Simple concept that directly improves quality of life without breaking the game.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2021 — might not work with the latest game patches.
- Only affects heatsinks, so if you wanted broader cooling options, this won't cover it.
For players who find stock heatsinks too weak and want a modest efficiency boost without feeling like they're cheating. Also for those who prefer a simple, focused tweak over a full overhaul. Skip if you want more complex cooling mechanics or if you're on a newer game version that might break compatibility.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Check your game version against the mod's last update (June 2021) to avoid conflicts.
- Choose the 1.5x version first if you're unsure — it's a safer balance.
- Since it's a simple file replacement, back up your original heatsink files before overwriting.
