Cru, also know as the Crash Response Unit, implements new challenges to the the CrashLanding pack by iskandar, This addon pack is 100% unofficial.
Anyone interested in statistics click here to see how many times this addon has been downloaded.
I had really enjoyed playing crash landing the same as many of you out there, but i got to a point where i had everything. and anything i did was no longer a challenge. so this is my way to give more of a challenge. This is Cru.
Not only does this pack offers more challenges but it also changes the basic survival element, It's like an expert mode, i have tried to eliminate things that end up making yourself redundant. for example have you ever felt that automating everything was soo cool!, but then when you finally finished automating everything you start to realise you're not needed there to do it anymore then you realise you not required to play anymore. I have also added further quests that Cru your companion will assist you with to add new meaning to the challenges implementing this has taken a very large portion of my time, first i was only doing it for myself, but i seen there were so many people who still played iskandar's pack, so i thought hey.. why not!
Plain and simple I just wanted to make everything a finite resource just as the original pack did so for Making water a finite resource, however after a while of playing i found that water was not really that finite, it was easy to get. for one obvious reason was because of what could make water. leaves! they are so common to get. break it down further. leaves => Trees => bonemeal => Bones it was easy to make leaves for water because it was easy to get bone meal from bones, so now Mob farms have to work a lot harder to get bones, i've made it harder to get amongst many things.
Creating power is now a absolute necessity as there is no more free lighting. torches have a burn time. so you rely mainly on powered lights. You guessed it Power is a finite resource, i have dramatically reduced power output from all and any power generation i could modify any that could not be tuned down enough was removed. Planks have been removed so that logs must be used in place that means more wood consumption. coal can no longer be made from wood. many many changes for balance and increased challenge rating. though to compensate i have made a lot more things burnable in the generator.
Say goodbye to cobble gen, you want cobble you need to work for it.
The main idea is that everything should cost something.
I've added compressed additions of all variances of Dust, Sand, Gravel and dirt. They can all now be sifted in the sieve, to save time. As you can see it's not automation, but you still get a sense of achieving and a need to be there. on a side note Dirt is Extremely hard to get Trust me your first bit of dirt will be an accomplishment. good luck getting another bit..
Anything that i found to be exploited i removed. such as getting water from acid. oh yeah tasty acid water that hit the spot! NO!!! Water is now harder to obtain. no more netherrack either for free fire to heat your crucible, no more lava to heat your crucible. no more buckets of any kind for placing any liquid so you'll need to navigate with Cru, he will have the answers!
In the beginning you are helped a lot by the quest book and even that will cost you. as i was talking about power. Power is very important now, power is what keeps the lights on it's what powers Cru, your personal replicator though to assist you it requires power. You'll see what i mean, It's really important to read the Cru, as it has valuable information on how to survive.
A lot of key components have changed iv'e watched countless playthroughs of crash landing to see how people do it easy and what eventually makes them self-redundant and i have nerfed it. so though most people who will use this addon pack will be advanced players of the pack, you'll find most of your "tricks" won't help you survive anymore, i have made the quest book as descriptive as possible to help people who are not familiar with crash landing.
Cru is not for those who want an easy ride. I have purposefully made it harder to survive. please don't complain is all i ask. if it's a bug i'll fix it, if it's an exploit i'll fix it. if it's because you can't survive, keep trying princess.
I have modified a bunch of config files and added new mods and modified them to suit my needs. changed a tonne to balance. i have play tested this pack thoroughly to be sure it is in fact survivable so i know it is possible, just extremely difficult. The challenge is not to complete the quest book, Rather to survive and thrive, I have tried to create this addon so that there is no end game. it is a continuation of survival and thriving. however i know endgame of course will come to bare so i have also added galacticraft and mystcraft for the potential to leave the dust planet, to go "Home" however I have not tweaked them at all. so they are just in as a place saver. but this is not the end. on the newfound home a new challenge will await you. this is not yet implemented though i will continue to work on this although hopefully this addon will keep us amused for quite a while.
I will be updating Cru as frequent as possible making changes to balance it. I know it is possible to survive, not so much thrive, even surviving is hard.. is not easy to maintain at all. I have made quest lines for HQM mode As the default pack offers only 1 life, and then the Sync shell. But given the extra hard work you will have to put in and this is going to be in the the long run i strongly suggest Hardcore questing mode, you will be giving 2 live, and the quest book will offer limited lives. so if you type in the console /hqm enable you will open up that part of the quest to obtaining more lives. I strongly recommend it.
For the moment there is no Download File. As i am still in Alpha tweaking some bugs. I have already implemented everything that is listed here and more, though i would like to be sure of my balancing, as i haven't had too much time to actually play test. still finding some minor problems. I have a Poll available for what you guys think on a release.
Just so you know there are many grammatical and spelling mistakes in Cru, it is sometimes done on purpose other times was because it was late and proof reading was out the window... so this is the story as to why. "Cru is the ship's AI that crash landed and made an emergency backup of itself to your portable Device on limited reserve power and he is all messed up! He is your Companion."
Happy gaming.
