描述
This mod primarily adjusts the loot drop of the Mother Poptop so that it no longer gives out core fragments and drops the Explorer's Lantern instead. While understandable for gameplay reasons, it never made much lore sense to me why an Adult Poptop would eat core fragments of all things (but conversely it does make some sense that it may have munched on an unlucky explorer at some point, hence the lantern).
I also wanted to provide some incentive to go mining on the starter planet rather than just having to visit the abandoned mines to progress, as much as I appreciate the devs for providing alternative methods for aquiring core fragments, I'm sure just about everyone goes into the mines rather than actually go mining since it's more advantageous to do so anyways. Having the Mother Poptop drop the Explorer's Lantern also resolves the issue of how it's essentially uncraftable at tier 1, given that there are no sources of oil on the starting planet. Having the Explorer's Lantern also unlocks the ability to craft the Lantern Stick or Mining Helmet items, which are quite handy for the now quite necessary mining trip you'll have to make with this mod.

Using a hunting weapon on the Mother Poptop will still yield the original drop of 20 core fragments alongside the new addition, for those who'd still like to have the option of progressing more quickly. Additionally you can expect the same things hunting an Adult Poptop would yield as a bonus.

As a secondary tweak, the Mother Poptop is now Albino, since Adult Poptops seem rare enough as they are, and I felt it'd be a nice way to make the miniboss a bit more distinct, to make it stand out even more it now is physically larger than regular Adult Poptops too which also makes it slightly more difficult to face. Don't worry, it still spawns in regular Poptops as usual.

Note that this mod is incompatible with FU.

Can this mod be added to an existing universe file?

@Yuubi the visual changes will probably only partially work as Frackin for whatever reason hasn't updated the albino adult poptop sprites to work with the new animations it adds to the mother poptop

Then i will play with the load order, maybe that will prioritize your changes!

@Yuubi having taken a quick glance at FU's alterations to the mother poptop loot table, they should both be compatible here, obviously the other changes my mod makes to the mother poptop will probably be overwritten by FU though

Where has this mod been all my life?

Is it FU compatible? I dunno if that is changing its loot table already

tasty core fragments (spicy)

@Rye Katsueki well, I don't really have any other ideas in mind since I personally like the early game as it is with just this tweak involved.

I wonder if there are other ways of making the early game on Starbound also more fun. This here helps, but with the state the game is right now, you almost never have any reason to go mining.

@warmainiac there you go, you can get core fragments through defeating it with a hunting weapon now.
