Roadmap

Endless Ember

Endless Ember expands Hytale with a full progression system around advanced fuels, ember technology, and magical ore gardening.

What started as high-performance fuel sticks has evolved into a broader gameplay loop:

craft and upgrade long-burning fuels,
process resources with custom stations,
create mineral soils,
grow rare ember flowers,
and refine their pollen into valuable materials.

🔥 Fuel Progression

Build your way through fuel tiers for longer burn times and fewer refuels:

MK1: 60s
MK2: 180s
MK3: 360s
Infinite Fuel: 3600s

Designed for smoother smelting/crafting workflows and long base sessions.

🛠 Core Stations

Ember Workbench (Tinkerbench)

Custom crafting station for Endless Ember progression.
Used to craft fuels, mineral tools/materials, and flower-related content.
Craftable from the normal Workbench path.

Ember Press

Processes materials under pressure/heat.
Turns ores into chunk/powder progression items.
Converts flower pollen into useful resources.

🌱 Ember Gardening System

A full ore-flower farming branch with progression soils and tiered plants.

Mineral Soil Progression

Mineral Soil (MK1)
Advanced Mineral Soil (MK2)
Premium Mineral Soil (MK3)

Special crops require specific soil tiers.

Ore Flower Families (currently available)

Conductive Blossom (Copper)
Rust Flower (Iron)
Mirror Flower (Silver)
Blue Star Flower (Cobalt)
Glitter Thistle (Thorium)
Aurum Bloom (Gold)
World Core Bloom
Mystical Mountain Eye
Onyxium Heart

✂ Harvesting Behavior (Important)

Hand harvest uproots the plant (no regrow).
Sickle harvest keeps the plant cycle alive (regrowth supported).

⚖ Balance & Progression Design

Clear tier progression across fuels, soils, and flowers.
Strong utility gains balanced by recipe costs and production chain depth.
Intended for players who enjoy:
- efficient production setups,
- long crafting sessions,
- farming + processing loops,
- base-scale resource automation playstyles.

🚧 Active Development

Endless Ember is actively expanding with new systems (tools/weapons, alchemy branch, and more progression content). Feedback and balancing suggestions are welcome.

A quick personal note
This is my first mod project, and I plan to keep expanding it over time. I don’t know yet whether I’ll be able to bring it up to the level of a standalone mod. I also won’t be able to deliver content regularly. I’ve just recently become a father, so my top priority is, of course, my family.
If you still want to, you’re very welcome to follow me on this journey! Use and share the mod — and if you’d like, buy me a coffee:
