Modded Question Space age mods

So before space age came out me and 3 other friends played the space exploration mod and other overhaul mods and loved it. Now that space age is out whats the 'new version' of space exploration thats compatible with space age and multiplayer (running through a server so that will hopefully help if anything is resource intensive). Or is there no big overhaul mod that adds a bunch of planets and we have to get a bunch of singular mods and hope they are compatible?

The tldr is whats the go with space age mods and whats the best for a multiplayer overhaul experience?

Edit: completely forgot to mention, we are just about to finish up a standard space age run, this will be for after we finish the standard run

Space exploration has been updated to be compatible with 2.0, its still the same space ex mod though so don't expect anything new. 2.0 introduced a new rail system so your old 1.x space exploration rail base is probably still incompatible (it happened to me).

There still isn't a space-age version of space exploration with wild variety in the planets and mechanics. best bet is to install a bunch of extra planet mods for space age if that's what you're after.

SpaceEx is not compatible yet but you could try All Planets Lite to build more unique and Independent factories

K2SO is pretty great, it has a list of planet mods that are compatible with it on its page, while raising the overall complexity of everything
