Addons Create Technology Thermal Expansion

A difficulty mod for Ad Astra, incorporating the Nether into progression to the stars.

Rockets now require Astrosteel instead of Steel, which is created by alloying Steel and Netherite Scrap in the Etrionic Blast Furnace from Ad Astra. This includes the following:

  • Nose Cone
  • Rocket Fins
  • Engine Frame and Engine Propeller
  • Steel Tanks
  • Astrosteel Blocks - updated recipe, replacing Steel Blocks in the NASA Workbench

Added Astrosteel Blocks, which have matching recipes and designs as the other Ad Astra blocks

  • Because of alloying process, these blocks have the same blast resistance as Netherite Blocks (but still burn when dropped into lava or fire)
