All metal comes via reclaim. Important: if you stall metal, reclaim is reduced and it turns into a vicious cycle. You'll have to temporarily stop metal demand to recover. Take it easy on infinite build. Tip: use Junkyard dogs (combat fabs) for early eco; they are cheap and 5x more energy efficient than basic fabricators, but very vulnerable to attack. Tip: to reclaim units, you have to target them explicitly. To reclaim features, use area commands. Meta-mod that only depends on other mods. - Finite Metal - metal spots are reclaimed for large metal, and then disappear - Junkyard Wars - most factories have one unit that trades some or all of it's weapon for reclaim; see link for details - No Metal Commander - commander starts with 5000 metal but generates none. - Reclaimable Features - ALL features (rocks, metal bits) are reclaimable - Wreckage - all units leave wreckage that can be reclaimed. - https://github.com/justinlove/planetary_reclamation - http://wondible.com/pa/planetary_reclamation_v1.0.0.zip - PAMM
