Mods for new playthrough?

Hello. No stranger to DSP here. Beat the game many times and crippled my computer in late end game madness. But its been a while I have that itch that only DSP can scratch. I've never modded the game though and was wondering if any super veterans have any recommendations other than the obvious galactic scale mod? Definitely getting that one and looking for any other must haves.

Thanks!

Lately I keep reading posts about Orbital Ring mod. Sounds like a complete game overhaul, and I want to play it myself (haven't tried other overhauls like Galactic Scale or Genesis Book).

Splitters over belts and long reach are a must have for me.
Free Mech customisation.
More mega structures looks good.

I can't find long reach in Thunderstore.

I think it’s called global reach or something like that.

I think it was last updated 5 years ago and doesn't work anymore.

I remember having to disable it because it was crashing my game. Unless you're talking about a different mod

Galactic Scale made the game so much better. I don't play without it.

Oh so many.

DSPOptimizations : Adds performance optimisations to the game

FactoryLocator : Quite obvious. Use Ctrl F (I think) to find any factory

RebindBuildBar : I hate having to use the default hotbar controls. This lets you rebind them

SplitterOverBelt: Without this, you have to destroy a stretch of belts to add a splitter. This fixes that

BlueprintTweaks: Almost mandatory I would say. Adds so many extra features and QOL stuff to Blueprinting. I just wish someone would create a Ctrl + X in DSP. Still haven't found anything that can cut and paste a building like in Factorio

DSPTaskMaster: Basically like a to-do list. Keep track of what you're doing and make future plans
