Description
UPD: To anyone it may concern - yes, you can use my mods for... whatever you want, essentially. Go on, rip them apart, learn from it and make something better :)

You know what I hate about Starbound in general and Frackin' Universe in particular? Two things - inconsistent style that forces you to build around it and that for every apchoo you want to make you need a specific crafting station, all of which eat up space on your base for dinner.

So, this here is a spiritual heir to Immirik's Compact Stations, which is sadly outdated (and which I disected to learn how Starbound mods work). Well, le rex est mort, vive le rex! Intruducing MicroMachines!

This is an addon for Frackin' Universe mod. You also need my base mod for this to work properly.

Don't forget to unsubscribe from Compact Machines - both mods change same files and will conflict.

Need more stations shrinked down? Check out MicroMachines collection - maybe I've already made an addon you're looking for:

Nevermind! It was a different mod, apologies

Im not entirely sure if this is due to this mod, but it could be. Ever since the extraction labs (both normal and MKII, I havent tested the quantum one yet) got hit with the shrink ray, they both haven't been working.

are both normal sized and miniature stations in the mod?

Okay, so the latest update fixes everything I could fix. Everything that is left (like mismatching previews) are problems caused by Starbound engine itself, that I unfortunately can't fix (or more accurately - can't fix without rewriting the entire game anew which I'm NOT going to)

hey! im having a problem with the mod, most of the machines dont place where im hovering the mouse, and it takes some guess work to get the right place, is there any way to fix this?

@Wzkazu so is it possible to make a standalone verison instead of replacer version? some ppl in my server do like small one some prefer the vanilla size

is it just me or is the water gen texture broken?

@sleepy witch ☆ I *might* shrink precursor datadrive (their equivalent of a microscope) but I won't be touching anything else in precursor cathegory. I'm trying to keep this resprite logical and consistent, and from this point of view nothing is wrong with precursor machinery - after all, it's an alien civilisation with it's own merits and culture.
Think of it this way - imagine yourself on an archeological expedition finding an ancient vine press. It still works, but is bulky and cumbersome. And then you ask me to make it smaller and faster so it can fit in your kitchen.
Hope you see where I'm getting to here. Precursor tech belongs into museum. It's just do happens that it could also be used in a lab.

Micro precursor machines would be such a godsend. You're doing such great work! Keep it up!

reading the changelog I'm with you on the solar panel changes.

for a long time FU solar panels intentionally didn't even work on ships, now they work at 50% effect I believe (despite the fact that solar should be MORE effective in space without things like cloud cover to worry about). the upgraded solar panels being costly and useless is news to me but it fits with some of the terrible design decisions in FU.
