New Infinite Sources: A Look at the Mod

For dedicated duplicant managers playing Oxygen Not Included, resource management is a constant challenge. While the base game offers a finite supply of many crucial elements, certain mods aim to alleviate these constraints. The “New Infinite Sources” mod, though now in a maintenance-only state, historically provided unique solutions for resource generation and storage, focusing on adding unlimited options to your asteroid.

Key Features and Content

The core premise of “New Infinite Sources” revolves around overcoming the limitations of natural resource depletion. The mod introduces mechanics for automatic item generation, ensuring a perpetual supply of needed materials. This extends to power generation, offering an unlimited source to keep your duplicants’ operations running smoothly. Beyond utility, the mod also enhances the aesthetic possibilities within your base by including items with extremely high decoration values, allowing for more visually appealing colonies. A unique feature was the “black hole storage box,” designed to automatically clear its contents, preventing unnecessary clutter.

Mod Evolution and Current Status

It’s important to note that the “New Infinite Sources” mod is no longer actively updated by its original author. The developer has indicated that due to the availability of more comprehensive alternatives, this specific mod has been discontinued. However, the mod’s legacy lives on through its art and lighting components, which have been carried over to a separate project. For players seeking robust infinite item solutions, the author recommends exploring other, more actively maintained mods that offer expanded functionality and user interfaces.

Consolidated Functionality

The primary functionalities consolidated within “New Infinite Sources” were:

• Unlimited gas and liquid supply.
• The convenience of a “black hole storage box” for automatic item disposal.

While the original, standalone versions of the infinite gas/liquid and black hole storage box mods did not support the latest game versions, “New Infinite Sources” incorporated repaired and adapted versions of these mechanics. The developer also mentions adapting the mod to newer game versions based on publicly available source code, acknowledging the original creators of the incorporated functionalities.
