(VALO) - Vortex Advanced Logistical Overhaul

Step into a transformed universe with VALO, where Space Engineers is reimagined through a lens of innovation and enhanced gameplay. VALO introduces a hundreds of upgraded blocks, new resources, and revolutionary production systems that will redefine your engineering experience.

Upgraded Blocks and Components:
• Explore an array of block sizes and enhancements across three tranches (T1-T3). Whether you're constructing a nimble fighter or a massive space station, VALO provides you with the building blocks to customize your designs based on power requirements and efficiency.
  
  
  Light vs. Heavy Ores & Ingots:
• Vanilla ores and ingots are now categorized as Light, while Heavy variants have been introduced, yielding superior results. Seek out asteroids to harvest Heavy ores, refining them in advanced refineries for enhanced production capabilities.
  
  
  Full Conversion Experience:
• VALO is designed as a full conversion mod, meaning it replaces many vanilla mechanics. To ensure seamless gameplay, we recommend avoiding any other mods that affect vanilla components, ores, or blocks without careful testing to insure compatibility.
  
  
  Revolutionary Production Changes:
• VALO introduces the Particle Accelerator—a pivotal new block that converts resources into Heavy Particles, essential for enhancing components and upgrading blocks. Experience streamlined production processes that keep your engineering efforts at peak efficiency.
  
  
  In-Depth Component System:
• The mod features a layered component system with three grades:
  
  • T1 (Basic Components): Crafted using vanilla ores in standard assemblers, or produced in bulk with Heavy Ores in advanced assemblers.
    
  • T2 (Enhanced Components): Created using a Particle Accelerator, combining basic components with Heavy Particles.
    
  • T3 (Advanced Components): The pinnacle of engineering, combining T2 components with Heavy Particles for superior performance.
  Specialized Power and Plating Components:
• Tailor your defenses and power systems with specialized components. Power components scale from T1 to T3, optimizing energy efficiency across your builds. Plating components offer targeted protection against energy and kinetic damage, allowing for flexible armor strategies.

VALO is a living mod, with updates planned to expand gameplay options, including new block types and features. Join the ever-evolving narrative of engineering mastery in a universe filled with possibilities.

Lore


In the vast expanses of space, one name stands dominant: Vortex. Known for its impeccable ship systems, tools, and armaments, Vortex has evolved far beyond a mere corporation. Its reach now extends to the outermost sectors of known space, where entire civilizations thrive on Vortex technology. The company's latest advancement, Vortex Advanced Logistical Overhaul (VALO), marks the dawn of a new industrial revolution, pushing Vortex from a dominant force in the marketplace to an empire spanning the stars.

At its core, VALO represents the culmination of centuries of innovation and expansion. Vortex no longer limits itself to specialized equipment; instead, it now manufactures everything a modern spacefarer or planetary settler could need. From budget-friendly, mass-produced ship components to elite, niche outfitting designed for the most discerning customers, Vortex's product range is both vast and adaptable.

As Vortex's coffers have swelled with profits from this widespread adoption, the company has reinvested in the one resource that holds more power than any technology—land. In the outer regions, Vortex has established a sprawling empire, enveloping entire star systems in its sphere of influence. Ecumenopolises, towering cities that stretch to the heavens, dot the Vortex-controlled sectors. These massive urban centers churn out parts, tools, and weapons, all stamped with the unmistakable Vortex logo. For every gleaming tower of industry, there are slums where the underclass struggles to keep up, but even in these harshest of environments, Vortex products are omnipresent, giving every citizen a lifeline to the company's sprawling infrastructure.

VALO is the spearhead of this civilizational outreach. It is the engine driving Vortex's transformation from a successful corporate entity into an empire. VALO's logistical innovations have allowed for rapid, large-scale construction across the galaxy, facilitating the rise of new cities, the establishment of trade routes, and the consolidation of Vortex's dominance. Entire fleets, colonies, and even governments rely on VALO systems to power their infrastructure. In many ways, Vortex has become synonymous with the very concept of progress in the modern galaxy.

As you journey through the stars, you will see the fruits of this labor at every turn. From the pristine vessels gliding through bustling spaceports to the scrappy, well-worn ships pieced together on the edge of civilized space, the touch of Vortex is unmistakable. In this new era of expansion, where industry and empire merge, Vortex and VALO stand as beacons of the future.

Welcome to the Vortex Empire. Welcome to VALO.
