A team of investigators, crash-landed on the rim, uncovered a deranged method of turning the Golden Cube into bionic s.
Unlike the Golden Cube’s well-known addictive influence and its tendency to undermine productivity, these bionics exhibit performance surpassing even archotech-grade enhancements.
Yet, as more colonists undergo the procedure, subtle changes begin to spread through the colony.Those who bear the Golden Cube within their bodies grow not only stronger, but increasingly strange and difficult to live with.
Whether this reveals a hidden nature of the Golden Cube itself, or merely reenacts, in a different form, the familiar cycle of discovery, obsession, rejection in the name of safety and efficiency, and the inevitable conflict with those who refuse to let go—remains unknown.
Alright, I can’t keep making this up.
Since the Golden Cube is a risky, low-reward piece of junk anyway, why not try turning it into a major historical opportunity for the colony while still enjoying the suffering it brings?
This mod adds golden cube bionics made from the Golden Cube as a crafting material. They are crafted at the butcher table (but require intellectual skill), offer extremely powerful stats, and also come with negative effects (but at least not cube interest ). Additionally, in order to install this damned thing into someone’s body, the surgery must be performed by a pawn with high artistic skill, making it a dangerous procedure.
All bionics recipes require:
Golden Cube ×1
Advanced Component ×79
Mind-numb Serum ×79
Effects of these bionics:
+Extremely high part efficiency
+A small amount of armor
+Psychic sensitivity
+Consciousness
+Chance to start social fights
+Mental break threshold
-Pain felt
-Social impact
-Activity suppression speed
-Negotiation ability
-Injury healing speed
+A small unique bonus related to the installed body part
Even so, conquering the Golden Cube is no easy task. If your mod setup is close to vanilla and your colony is still in its early stages, it is probably better to throw the Golden Cube away when you see it.
