Are cans recyclable? Because they really should be. Also, adjust can color based on their contents, so it's easier to tell them apart from empty cans(and each other). Also, what does the 0.25 nutrition stand for? 25% of the value of the original food? Because that's kind of damn wrong... you should compensate for ease of their make by making them, well, not that easy to make. Canning food should be relatively time-consuming.

Why are you setting the fertility so high? The only reason I won't use this is because it feels like an exploit.

Eh, my problem is that if every second mod adds multiple workbenches, that quickly becomes a lot. I'd much rather see someone make a community mod that adds a set of generic workbenches that other mods can use, and that recipes themselves are unlocked with research.

I'm somewhat interested in modding, and I think that making something with similar purpose to this mod, will be the first thing I'll do - except I want different soil types diggable up(you get back items), and then placeable. Also, tilled soil enabling plants to grow twice as fast is ridiculous. 1.1x, or 1.15x is reasonable, but not 2x. Fertilizers are another thing that'd be nice to add, but I just don't see it being much better than the natural rich soil, which has a reasonable 1.4x multiplier. I'd really like to see modmakers try to keep things vanilla-geared.

Eh. Whatever.

Eh, to be fair, highly sophisticated prosthetics are way above the difficulty level of building a spaceship, and also, Rimworld does not take place in reality. One of the technologically simplest to replicate bodyparts, the bionic leg costs a LOT, suggesting its advanced origin.

I would be fine seeing simple prosthetics craftable, probably using bought-only components, and otherwise, the mod just expanding on operations, and buyable bionics. Trying to cram too much into one mod is a sure way to shit it up - as six crafting tables very well do. It's not as bad as the teleporter or quantum storage mods, but it sure is a buzzkill.

Personally I like the approach some modmakers take - to create multiple, smaller mods. Personally I'd love to see this split up into a more operations mod, another that adds more buyable bionics, one that makes it possible to craft simple ones, and then keep the advanced crafting in another mod.

I think someone missed the fact that katanas were actually really shitty compared to European swords. They lacked guards, had poor balance, and were made of low-quality steel because they were behind European refining and smithing techniques. The whole Japanese smithing circlejerk is stupid.

Yeah, I am not going to use this mod, no matter what, as long as it adds more than one new workbench. And even then, I am somewhat unsure about it, given that Xeridium exists in the game, now(not sure if it did in the past).

The only thing stopping me from using this mod, is the presence of SIX workbenches to accomplish a single goal. Have a single workbench with upgrade module inventory(so to say, installing new tools you bought off vendors), and make actually crafting bionics REALLY hard, to a point where most of this mod's content can only be bought from vendors(and possibly add a Medical Supplier vendor). To me, as long as this mod allows easy bionics, and requires huge workshops, it's not "vanilla friendly" - it's a gamechanger, and not in a good way. As the game's title suggests, it happens on a rimworld, this isn't a glitterworld where people can craft advanced bionics in their basements, as so many mods seem to ignore. I think EPOE is one of the most promising mods for the game right now, and that is why I'd really like to see it rebalanced around vanilla better.
