mlieOmni Core Drill Mod adds a configurable deep core drill capable of extracting any mineable material present on the map, whether vanilla or added by other mods. If a material exists anywhere on the map (even outside your colony), the drill can locate and extract it, provided you supply enough power and pawn labor.
Omni Core Drill Mod Features
- Deep core drill that supports all mineable materials, vanilla or modded.
- Extraction difficulty and yield scale naturally with material rarity, lump size, and mining properties.
- Efficient for large, high-yield deposits (e.g., plasteel); inefficient for small clusters (e.g., compacted machinery/components).
- Safe to install mid-save and safe to uninstall after removing all drill bills and deconstructing drills.
Cost of the drill
- 2000 Steel.
- 10 Components.
- 400 Plasteel.
- 75 Additional Metal.
Configuration
You can adjust the work required and yield for each material individually.
- Default values are automatically calculated based on material rarity, lump size, and other properties.
- In-game Mod Options allow you to modify yields and work multipliers from 0.25× to 4× per material.
- Supports different playstyles: increase yields for abundance-focused playthroughs, or heavily reduce them for scarce-resource challenge runs.
Compatibility notes
The mod is safe to add to existing saves.
It can also be removed safely once all Omni Core Drills are deconstructed and their bills cleared.
Info regarding Beyond Our Reach: That mod makes the drill much harder to get as it locks it behind its own research and materials.
If you do not like this change, please see the mod-options in that mod to change it.
