cool idea

[mabor0shi]

Why would I want this? I don't mean that to b insulting, I'm curious. What can coal do for me?

[RazorHed]

it could power your fueled generator ,stove, smithy on an ice sheet.

[BetaSpectre]

I assume coal is for generators. If you can extract large amounts in mountain areas/deserts with limited land for growing it could be useful.

I assume coal is for generators.

It says as much several times in the OP and even shows pics of it, so u are jumping to conclusions with that wild assumption
I haven't found fueled generators to b of any use yet. I believe I had a glitch that was preventing any of the power they made from entering the grid, but I thought generators just sucked and then forgot about them. I'll give them another shot. If generators r useful, I can c the purpose of coal. But won't it make the game easier, unbalance it?

Well I just started a new solo colonist w/o any resources run with no tech researched and Im really benefitting from this since Im playing on tundra where trees are scarce.

Great Idea !

Sometime i have not enough woods to fuel generators. Because the winter is too long, no tree can grows quick enough.

No minable coals for existing save?

[christianmc1101]

could I buy coal by traders and traderships?

Correct. Forget to change topic example what i get from friend.

Yep, bulk traders sells coal. But traders not. I will fix it and update soon.

Isnt BlackGold the name of another mod in the unreleased section? Might want to change the name of this mod..

Indeed it is, but there is no sign of life from 3 months now
...My guess is that OP didn't know that, so who can blame him. I'd change the name to avoid conflict in the future, thou.
