Let's get some mod discussion going. Finally launched my first rocket early this year and have discovered the wonderful world of mods.
Personally, I've been playing a lot of seablock. For me, it is the best mod for doing it in small chunks. The lack of biters, the fact that I need to place landfill to start up a new area, it makes everything feel very intentional, I guess you could say. Versus normal factorio where expansion is the default.
Also have small SE and py saves going. SE only have the first few sciences and py only have basic power, so haven't really explored deep at all into those.
I'm currently on a vanilla run, I realized I didn't have 20m green chips or 100 followers achievements.
One I got that I added in only MaxRate calculator and am working on a megabase. I have 4k spm of red, green and blue science. Working on purple... that's a lot of railroad segments.
