Tricky Old Nick

This mod adds nickel processing to Nullius. An easily extracted metal, it fills in for more advanced metals when bootstrapping production. It finds ongoing use for its magnetic, heat-tolerant, and chemical properties as technology advances. Tricky old Nick makes the early game more challenging. It is recommended for players who like to play with many ores or who want to replay with a fresh challenge at the outset.

Frequently asked

What licence is Tricky Old Nick under?

mit, as stated by the author on the platform we synced it from. Check the project's own page before redistributing or bundling it.

How do I install Tricky Old Nick?

Install the matching loader first, then put the downloaded file in your mods folder and start the game. The loader, the mod and Factorio all have to be on the same version, which is the usual reason a mod does not appear in game.

Where do I download Tricky Old Nick safely?

From the author's own page on Factorio Mod Portal, which is where the data here is synced from. IndexGG never mirrors, re-hosts or repackages a file: every download button points at the original source, so you get exactly what the author published.

Which Factorio versions does Tricky Old Nick work on?

The author has not declared a supported version in the metadata we sync, so there is nothing here we can state as fact. Check the project's own page before installing it, and treat an old mod with no declared version as untested on modern Factorio.

Last checked 1 mo ago against Factorio Mod Portal. We do not host files and we do not republish descriptions; every download link points at the author’s own release.
