I love FU but christ the Research thing is so annoying to deal with.
As an old player, I feel way more confused having to unlock stuff in the research tree than just figure it out myself.

Good fix. The research tree was a good addition to the game to help new players not get lost and miss important progressions, but was implemented in a way that slows down progression to a grind.

Apparently I can't play it. When I download Starbound, the window opens and closes automatically. Does anyone know what the reason for this is?

What,,, we shouldn't lock gameplay behind an arbitrary time-based currency??

@Excavice the mod doesn't work

Frackin is absolutely not an experience that needs to take longer than it already does, so I was right in thinking someone already made this mod; good stuff :steamhappy:

omg it's kris from the hit game "deltarune"

THANK YOU! It's gonna be so much easier to play with my friends now that we don't need to worry about being locked from Starbound's fun aspects thanks to this shit.

Forgot, thanks for this mod!

FU would be so much better if literally anyone else made it.

Thank you for this. Sayter is a braying jackass, and having a workaround to his petty BS puts a big fat smile on my face :)
Kombosabo 12 Feb, 2023 @ 6:17pm 
Do you think you can make a mod to reduce passive resource generation to zero?
Sciencedude2013 2 Dec, 2022 @ 1:21pm 
You missed "Improved Cores" in Engineering!

fxk sayter,YOU ARE LIVE SAVER!:steamthumbsup::steamthumbsup::steamthumbsup:

"Improved Cores" research in Engineering need to be fixed...
NXTtrain 23 Oct, 2022 @ 1:38pm 
So, found why it doesn't work, and fixed it. For some reason, this mod's _metadata file doesn't specify that it needs FU to load first. Just add the following line to it, and it'll work fine...
"includes" : ["FrackinUniverse"],
tigerfestival1988 22 Oct, 2022 @ 2:03am 
I'm not surprised to be honest. The author will have to update this again to get around Sayter's BS, if they're unable too, they can also ask really good modders such as Silver Sokolova or Pixelflame to get around the draconian nonsense.
donald.nintendo 21 Oct, 2022 @ 11:28am 
its possible Saytor made changes to FU to make this not work.

its happened before. and its quite annoying.
if that is what happend, its kinda hypocritical of a mod author to block out people modding their mod.
spqrfan 19 Oct, 2022 @ 4:19pm 
it isnt working. idk why but when i go to the research tree it doesn't cost 1 research
Excavice  [author] 18 Oct, 2022 @ 11:14am 
@Swingg sure, a lot of people are asking for a more balanced version - so ill start working on that
Swingg 18 Oct, 2022 @ 9:32am 
Thank you for making this lol frackin universe can be so frustrating sometimes! Do you think there's any chance you can make a more balanced version of this mod as well? Like where it halves or 1/4rths the research costs instead of making them all 1? thanks!
404_coffee.exe 16 Oct, 2022 @ 8:29pm 
thank you for making the mod
trigger7ff6 16 Oct, 2022 @ 12:00pm 
seconding what soltha said, i'd personally enjoy one with one significant figure taken off (1000 -> 100, 100 -> 10) or something similar
Dr.Driscoll 15 Oct, 2022 @ 4:22pm 
@michix985 What?
Excavice  [author] 15 Oct, 2022 @ 4:19pm 
@SothaSil yeah I could make another version that is balanced if you would like!
michix985 15 Oct, 2022 @ 2:23pm 
This says a lot about our society :steamsad:
Dr.Driscoll 15 Oct, 2022 @ 1:07pm 
The fact this mod exist, speaks volumes about the FU Mod.
Sotha Sil 15 Oct, 2022 @ 10:21am 
Maybe like 10x or 20x research at the very most to unlock things? I kinda want a semi-balanced version that isn't the stupidly overpriced vanilla version.
Sotha Sil 15 Oct, 2022 @ 10:19am 
Can you make a version where you are still need the materials but the research requirements are similar this?
Reebs 15 Oct, 2022 @ 2:38am 
Inb4 marked as incompatible with FU
JC Bent'em 14 Oct, 2022 @ 4:03pm 
@gensou ichida This mod that I don't have to download and can choose to ignore is unbalanced, must purge.
tigerfestival1988 13 Oct, 2022 @ 10:27pm 
@gensou ichida that can be prevented if the author removes the Frackin Universe requirement in the metadata file.
gensou ichida 13 Oct, 2022 @ 9:49pm 
in b4 sayter tries to break this in the next FU update

@Toni-technaclaw
Alright great, thanks for letting me know!
Toni-technaclaw 13 Oct, 2022 @ 12:13pm 
@excavice
the only Mod i Have that Effects the Research tree is the Canning Mod and your mod did its Cost. So its Compatible with that
Excavice  [author] 13 Oct, 2022 @ 12:02pm 
@Toni-technaclaw

Probably should be fixed now, thanks for letting me know!
Rubus 13 Oct, 2022 @ 11:33am 
I've never actually used the research tree.
Excavice  [author] 13 Oct, 2022 @ 11:23am 
Thought i was the only one that wasn't a fan of the research tree lol
Mandarin Duck Gaming 13 Oct, 2022 @ 11:14am 
Ah, i see someone doing gods work at last. this almost makes me want to play fu again.
warmainiac 13 Oct, 2022 @ 10:30am 
so i just simply dont like the research tree as i feel its just a little out of place for me
Excavice  [author] 13 Oct, 2022 @ 10:28am 
Was working when I initially tested but I’ll look into it, are there any mods that you are using that add anything to the research tree?
Toni-technaclaw 13 Oct, 2022 @ 10:14am 
Electronic and Geology Trees seem Unaffected by your Mod.
Toni-technaclaw 13 Oct, 2022 @ 9:23am 
Finally...
