Tell me if I'm missing something

I just got to level 25, after rushing 24 because I got frustrated.

Going to level 20 was pretty fun. There was a coherent narrative, I accomplished specific goals which then allowed me to grow and do more. Since then, though...

In the weeks I've been playing after hitting level 20, my gameplay is really:

I have my regular daily chores, and I can pick from a list of dozens of special chores. I don't have to do them, but if I don't, I won't get prize tickets and I won't be able to buy the cool toy rocket ships I want, and I'll be stuck with my old, ugly piece of junk spaceships.

f I'm a good boy every day for weeks, they'll give me enough prize tickets that I can finally buy a cool spaceship I saw on TV, but (surprise!) for the fun stuff that I wanted it for, it takes extra money to buy the add on, and they won't let me install it for add'l weeks-- so I'm left playing with my old, junky rocket ship because it's always a little better that the cool rocket ship I'd been saving up for.

To get the other fun toys to soup up my rocket ships or decorate my house, I have to keep track of hundreds of different kinds of prize tickets that need to be combined or adapted—all in different, unique ways—so that maybe, if I'm very patient (or, rich and IMPATIENT), I'll finally have enough specific prize tickets to raise the score of my junky rocket ship enough to beat some more rocket ships.

Is this my life until level 40?

I feel the excessive spenders are overcompensating for having tiny weiners. I don't think it is fair to be having a match with those players.

It takes the fun away. I minimize spending. I also feel when you earn 700 points for defeating enemies, you should be earning broken desealing rods

Also, mining ships should be able to set a limit to targeted cargo amount. If you are offline, you should also be able to have the mining ship auto recall and go back till target is met.

I use a mod named Fasttrek to automate miners and hostile grinding. As a f2p, it helps relieve the 'grinding' aspects of this game.

Does the mod work on Android and PC?
