Changelog:

  • Rework of several sections of the tree:
    • Habitation and lab section extensively reworked and expanded, now more cleanly split into hab, inflatable/centrifuge, life support/agriculture, and lab lines
    • Extended the Cryo branch with an extra lift/vac pair and generally reduced entry price
    • Tied the parachute techs, EVA, and inflatables together and added a rigid airships tech (I'll figure out how to give it the proper rdicon later)
    • General price tweaks
      • Moderate increase of later midgame tech costs to somewhat counter the science return spike that comes with crewed landings
      • Spiked universal docking cost just so you get a bit more time with the nice early BDB ports
      • Should now be no tech costs equal to the R&D level limits in either stock or Buruaecracy, avoiding the slight UI bug that causes
  • Added mod support:
    • Mk-33: Generally distributed across huge airframes, gigantic tanks, and huge construction. Tyrannosaur stuck in air-augmented rockets where it doesn't totally make sense but gives it a bit more unlock cost.
    • X-20 Moroz: Mostly goes in supersonic flight
    • Kerballoons: unlocked at start, upgrades in fabric techs
    • Hooligan Labs: unlock in fabric techs and rigid airships
    • Heisenberg Airship Parts: gets a rigid airship tech, though a lot of ancillary parts unlock in airframes and habs; may need to revisit if I ever do pathfinder
  • Other tweaks
    • Moved some of the Gemini RCS moved back to first RCS tech, because even if they're a tad over-efficient for it I don't want to force people to study ahead just to get nice complete Gemini pods
    • Slightly rearranged MMSEV wind turbines, tiny vertical turbine goes into first tech as a low-power but reliable option, big conventional turbine goes in second tech.
    • Tracked down a few extra loose PBI and MKS parts
