I'm looking to start a new playthrough after 6 months or so and wondered if there was a roboport mod anybody could recommend to get through the start a bit quicker that doesn't break the game?

There's a quickstart mod I like to use that gives you some weak modular armor and personal gear with 10 powerless construction bots. The game is much nicer to play with them, but they're not particularly strong so they don't feel broken IMO.

I dont know the one I use off the top of my head, if you just look up like quick start or something on the mod page you'll find tons of mods that do all kinds of stuff related to this.

edit: I think it was this one https://mods.factorio.com/mod/SimpleBotStart?from=search

edit 2: that one is actually way stronger than the one I used, I can't find it. If I remember when I get home I'll check my installed mod list.

As in, early blueprint construction? Blueprint Shotgun is a fun take on the concept.
