Neferium’s Space Farms
I noticed that the vanilla Hydroponics Bay was sorely lacking. Starbase building slots are precious, and a pathetic +2 to food was a horrible waste of such a valuable slot. I decided to mod the Hydroponics Bay to be more like the anchorages and trade hubs instead.
Now you can produce a decent amount of food in space for your population, freeing them up to become soldiers, scientists, unemployed, etc.
It is my hope that this mod is well balanced within the vanilla game. All mods I make are aimed at only improving the vanilla game.
Changes:
New starbase module: Hydroponic Array. This array generates 4 food at the cost of 1 energy. It can be built multiple times since it is a module. Unlocks with Hydroponic technology.
New starbase building: Hydroponic Processing Bay: This bay upgrades all hydroponic arrays to produce 3 more food, for a total of 7 food. Requires at least 1 Hydroponic Array in order to build. Also required Hydroponic Processing Technology.
New technology: Hydroponic Processing. This technology unlocks the Hydroponic Processing Bay.
NOTICE: This mod is not achievement compatible.
