Description:

Greetings, friends!

This is a tiny mod which adds a small number of constructable buildings,
all with the intention of making small-scale farming significantly
more viable and accessable!
An vanillaesque way of making early and low-population
agriculture much easier (and prettier!).

Primarily, this mod was made with the upcomming ‘Osyssey’ DLC in mind,
based on the already shown teasers.

This little lamp is the core and soul of this mod.

Consider it to be an very minimalistic growth-lamp,
capable of emitting merely enough light to sustain
the plants around itself, at an ‘meager’ power drain of 800 watt.

This lamp will, if centered, illuminate any crops within its 5×5 area.
It can effectively sustain three colonists if planted with rice in fully surrounding
Hydroponics of any kind and maintained nominaly.


Additionally, to make farming with this precious little helper much more engaging,
this mod also adds basic variations of the vanilla Hydroponics-Basin,
allowing your growth-rig much more flexibility!

That is it, already !!
Should there be any problems, please let me know !! 😀
Just… please in serene fashion…

I would like to thank my Lord, Jesus Christ, for helping me trough my Psychosis.
It is no secret to me how much His Name is despised, yet I will say, that without Him, I would most certainly have not survived, and noteworthily recovered from my mental condition.
If it is within your heart, seek Him out, there is much fullfillment to be found in what He stands for!

The lamps are drawn by myself.
About the Hydroponics basins, they are merely adjusted forms of the Vanilla version.

For everything Art related, I personally use Krita!
It is an very recomendable raster program, especially for beginning in modding, awell as free!
Feel free to look it up on Steam, if you desire to support its development !!

Additionally,
I would like to shout out ‘Dave Brandt’,
the man in the thumbnail, who many of us know from the meme, way back then.
It has come to me only now, while making this mod and choosing him for the thumbnail,
that he has sadly died, all the way back in May 2023, due to work related injuries. :c
As an former Miller, I respect what he has done for his industry, even trough I do not live in the US.
