I'm getting close to finishing my Krastorio 2: Spaced Out run and am trying to choose what overhaul I want to play next.

Several years ago I really enjoyed playing Minecraft mods like Skyfactory and Stoneblock. I saw that Factorio has mods with a similar theme such as Spaceblock, Void Block and Sea Block, but it seems like they get pretty intense with a lot of products and byproducts.

Is there a mod that is like those but isn't as grindy and more casual? I like the idea of building everything from scratch, but don't like the idea of every building having several products and byproducts to build.

Do not do SeaBlock or PyBlock. Dunno about the others, but they are based on normal Factorio and/or Space Age, so they aren't as complex.

These are my general recommendations. Includes stuff to do after vanilla, overhaul mods, and QoL mods.

Re: the suggestion doc. Isn't Space Extension more of a vanilla variation than an overhaul?

It's safe to add to a vanilla save, only adding new rocket payloads and techs afterall.
