Per his description:

"Old Earth Tech is meant to bridge the technological and production gap in the base version of Stranded: Alien Dawn. I understand that the lore of the game has instructions and recipes to jump immediately into more "modern" technologies, but I feel that misses something important.

So I decided to remedy this honest oversight in the pursuit of a straightforward gaming experience. Of course, I did so by making things more complex and interactive with each other."
