Welcome to Aquilo! In this mod, you will try to survive on the most remote, cold, and empty planet. However, as we know, there are no basic resources on Aquilo, and this mod will change that.
The ice melting is locked behind the space platform thruster tech. Since disabling food is not an option at the time of reporting this issue either, that means the initial food is all you get until you reach space, and are going to be stuck in a death loop at the latest after five hours in the game until you reach space and research thrusters.
