Advanced Rocketry is a mod about space, exploration, and resources

Advanced Rocketry does not support anything other than Forge at this point - be it Fabric or Sponge

Please be aware Sponge compatibility issues may never be fixed.

Current Features:

• Rockets that can travel between planets & moons
  • Rockets can be configured to use or not use fuel (use fuel by default)
  • Can be built from almost any block
  • Can be upgraded with different propulsion options
• Basic autogenerated planets
  • Generated randomly from planet temperature & atmosphere
  • Mix of gas giants and rocky planets
• Advanced XML options for custom planet creation
  • Features all Advanced Rocketry options
  • Allows mapping other mods dimensions to Advanced Rocketry planets
• Black holes that you can use for power
• Space stations
  • Can orbit any planet or moon
  • Can choose they amount of light the station gets contstantly by rotation
• Warp ships, capable of going outside planet/moon and sun/planet systems
  • Planet Selection Guidance
  • Research system that allows for undiscovered planets
    • Requires data and artifact to be able to find planets
    • Active beacons also make planets visible
• Basic machinery
• Many types of hazardous atmospheres
  • High-Pressure atmospheres
  • Very High Pressure atmospheres
  • Hot atmospheres
  • Superheated atmospheres
  • Vacuum
  • Low-Oxygen atmospheres
• Data collection of planets (not currently fully featured)
• Gravity generators for space stations
• Gravity generators for local areas on planets
• Satellite system
  • Data collection satellites
    • Can collect three types of data
    • Data is used for planetary discovery & asteroid mining
  • Oribtal solar power satellites
    • Used with the microwave reciever multiblock for power
  • Ore Scanning Satellite
  • Biome changing satellites
• Asteroid mining
  • Automated Harvesting
  • Research System
    • Random asteroid parameters (size, composition, richness)
    • Research can be done to determine properties
  • Manual Harvesting
    • Player can select as a destination
    • temporary dim in created, destroyed when last player leaves
• Gas Giant gas/fluid mining
• Railguns to transfer goods between planets and stations
• Support GTEU, EU, FE, Tesla, and RF as power supplies
• Terraforming

Future Features:

• Rovers (maybe? planetary exploration?)
• Planetary Mapping System (feasible?)
• More Satellites
  • Weather Control Satellite
  • Mapping satellite (feasible?)
• Clean Rooms (maybe)
• Stations can be positioned over certain locations on planets
• Telescopes -
  • Water Detectors (increases info on %dry) ~ space only
  • Chemical Detectors (increases chance of finding planets rich in certain ores) ~ space only
  • Atmospheric Detectors (increases info on pressure; when combined with chemical can detect if planet has harvestable/hazardous gasses) ~ ground and space
  • Temperature Detector (increases info on planetary temperature) ~ space only
  • Star Scanner (increases the likelihood of finding planets orbiting a star; higher level allows for smaller planets) ~ ground and Space
  • Radio interferometry (lets you discover black holes and get any data quickly) ~ ground only
• Possibility of rockets requiring life support for the player, without which they die
• Larger rocket engines
  • T3 engines for nuclear and bipropellant
  • Possible T4 engine that is a mini fusion reactor, but unlikely. Up to discrection
• Warp core rework
  • Requires data to function
  • More data can be used to speed the travel time, past the minimum (maybe)
  • Model redo + possibly some auxilary models for auxilary computation banks required for longer jumps
• Terraformer rework
  • Completely redo model and concept
  • Split terraformer up into a large center with multiple required buildings
  • Up gas costs signficantly
