New resources

Three new resources have been added to the game:

Imersite: A rare end-game resource used in many advanced recipes. This material is useless on its own, but when used in advanced manufacturing processes, exhibits ludicrous tensile strength and superconductive abilities.
Mineral Water: Water impregnated with various silts and dusts from the planet's surface. Used primarily in the production of lithium.
Rare Metals: An analogous representation of various rare elements (i.e. titanium, platinum, gold).

Combat mechanics overhaul

Combat has been completely overhauled. Bullets are now physical objects that have speed, wind resistance, and various AoE effects. Bullets have to travel through space to their target, and can be blocked by solid objects.

Auto-aim is disabled by default, requiring the player to skillfully choose what to aim at. This does not play nice with multiplayer latency, so an option to re-enable auto-aim is included in the mod's startup settings.

Science

Science progression has been majorly overhauled. Instead of science packs, you produce tech cards that are inserted into research computers. There are three tiers of tech card, each of which require their own laboratories.

Early-game tech cards will be phased out as the game progresses, allowing you to redirect resources to other parts of your factory.

Equipment

Higher tier equipment has been added, allowing for even greater quality of life during the end-game. Almost all vehicles now have equipment grids.

... And more!

Your path may lead you to discoveries that, perhaps, should remain science fiction.

Compatibility

Recommended companion mods

The following mods are recommended by the Krastorio team to improve your experience:

Alien Biomes by Earendel
Armoured Biters by CybranM
Fluid Must Flow by the Krastorio team
Milestones by Wiwiweb

Factorio: Space Age

Krastorio 2 has basic compatibility with the Quality mod. Things should work fine, but it may be unbalanced. Play at your own risk!

Krastorio 2 does not properly support the Space Age mod. The game will load, but progression will be broken. Please install an add-on such as Krastorio 2 Spaced Out to play Krastorio 2 with Space Age.

Overhaul mods

Krastorio 2 and Space Exploration have native compatibility. Simply load both mods and it will "just work". The K2/SE compatibility code is maintained by Trex on the Space Exploration discord server. Please reach out to him for any balance issues or bugs.
