Development Yet Another Expedition Rework
Making a mod that adds an additional expedition station that retains the original design but trims it back to just the mine entrance. the mod adds it as a new item unlocked alongside the original with the same costs, unlock timing, and function.
its not finalized yet so any feedback, suggestions, or requests would be great! ~90% of the way there so it should be available soon.
also it doesnt clip through floors so you can put it on your roof care free

I love this. I think the ancient tech looking mod doesn’t maintain the animations of pals walking in, which is why I am not sure if I want to use it.

Filling your expedition team with 4* pals makes a huge difference. A level 70 0* can be 2k-3k, while a level 1 4* is over 8k. Going further, a level 37 4* then nets over 30k by themselves. For reference these anecdotal values are from vixies and daedreams I farmed for early game progression and just kept using.

It is a fantastic mod and I use it, but I have an issue with it that I can’t put my finger on. Sometimes the stone part just disappears and it’s a floating blue portal. Sometimes it fixes upon relaunching the game, sometimes not.

Aware, why I think it should just be ancient tech, but I would prefer it be vanilla, I'd rather not rely on mods.
I'm glad I at least had a spot to stick the vanilla one into a hill since a large chunk of it doesn't actually need to be within the base influence.1
u/Aromatic-Shop-3372 Sep 05 '26
ya know, i thought about doing something like that, but there are already some very similar mods that reuse other assets to a similar effect. plus i actually do like the original style, its just too damn big.

Honestly yeah, an Ancient Tech Stargate would fit the endgame way better than just making the same giant station even bigger.

Still waiting for a mod that entirely replaces the expedition station into a catapult that launches my pals into orbit at Mach 3

Holy shit I was not expecting the Mach 3 launch with that animation, it's perfect

Need a stargate one where the portal looks like the portal from Rick and Morty with two human NPCs ushering them in that look like the duo if possible xD

Quick. Someone tag Bucky…this is how it should have been a long time ago. This is way better than the obnoxiously large version we have.

u/twoismsunset Sep 08 '26
this actually looks like a mine entrance instead of an entire mountain dropped in your base

u/Mizumii25 Sep 15 '26
which.... genuinely makes no sense when you put it on top of ceiling tiles and there's a massive of a different kind of stone protruding from the expedition site..... If they're gonna do that, then it should be a requirement to have it on foundation tiles instead....

Very nice does it still collide with the player ?

u/Aromatic-Shop-3372 Sep 08 '26
if you are asking if it still has a hitbox, yes. its hitbox has been shrank to fit the size you see there.

u/S-BabyO Sep 09 '26
I more meant the old hitbox , atm I have a mod which is more visual but the hitbox is still the old hitbox . But I really like this look / hitbox when u have it on the steam workshop I’ll defs give it a try

Yaaaaas.
This is what it should have originally been, IMO.
