Ambition of the Cosmic [Continued]

"Science will never, ever come to an end. Even when we believe all the discoveries to have been made, there will still be yet more things to learn of our reality, of our condition, because some things will forever be beyond our reach, even if we don't know it."


Welcome to Ambition of the Cosmic. This mod extends the late-game of RimWorld to the extreme, providing a massive time-sink for overwhelming power.

Welcome to Ambition of the Cosmic, previously known as Science Never Stops: Ambition of the Cosmic. This mod is a lengthy and very, very overpowered extension to the RimWorld late-game. It takes the original concept of Aion Algos' Science Never Stops, and turns it up to 11. You'll go through varying levels of hilarious overpoweredness, from crushing Cataphracts to wiping out hundreds-strong raids with a teen who never shot a gun before in his/her life.

The gameplay loop is rather simple, and boils down to trading for tons of plasteel and gold early on to produce everything, then eventually producing your own resources from nothing but time and labor. You go through three (or four, if you enable the True Pinnacle of Creation addon) tiers of technology, with a bunch of buildings, weapons, consumables, and other items for each of those tiers, until you are able to do pretty much anything effortlessly.

If you like being overpowered as all hell, this is your mod. If you like working hard to get to endgame and then laughing as you outpace your enemies even more than you already could in vanilla, this is your mod. If you like being even MORE overpowered, get TPOC. If you don't like patience-based resource generation and being able to crush your enemies without much effort, then I'm unsure why you got this far, but you should definitely avoid AOTC.

This mod was originally made by Aion Algos (formerly known as Alestor) and was known as Science Never Stops. This mod was once called Science Never Stops: Ambition of the Cosmic, but AOTC has moved so far away from the original vision of Aion's SNS, that I've decided to remove the 'Science Never Stops' portion of the mod. The original SNS and this mod, AOTC, are not compatible and should NOT be combined, or things will break.

New creator's note : I took over the mod after Explodoboy announced that he would no longer be keeping the mod up-to-date due to no longer having the time to do so.

old Ambitions of the Cosmic
This is our legacy.


AOTC : True Pinnacle of Creation
An addon where anything that might look even remotely balanced is thrown overboard.


Elite Bionics Framework
If you are using EBF with AOTC, bionics will get massive increases in limb health. For best results, add a mod that removes lethal damage threshold.

No More Lethal Damage Threshold
Removes the arbitrary 150 damage cap that force-kills pawns. Pretty much mandatory when using EBF.

The original developer of Ambitions of the Cosmic. Without him, nothing would have been powwible.

The first contributor to the mod, right after I forked it.
