…if there are any.
Prior to 2.0 I was a big fan of AngelBob for its complexity and stylistically fit with vanilla factorio. (I never liked Pyanodon due to the latter: Breeding unicorns to collect piss belongs in a farming simulator, not Factorio, imho). Now that I’m at endgame Space Age, having visited Shattered Planet, and reliably have 7k SPM, I think it’s time to aim for complexity again, akin to what I used to have with AngelBob.
Does AngelBob work well with Space Age? Any other overhaul mods that do?
There aren’t a lot that work well with Space Age, because overhauls are generally incompatible in terms of gameplay/balancing and Space Age itself is essentially an overhaul. Most new mods made for the Space Age era are new planets instead of overhauls, there’s Loup’s Guide to the Galaxy if you want some community-curated advice on what’s decent vs not worth the time (not a mod but it lives on the mod portal anyway).
But if you really want it, there’s a Krastorio 2 fork called Krastorio 2 Spaced Out that integrates Space Age. I think it’s about the best it can be, which is to say, I’m not a big fan of it but other people seem to like it. Nauvis is pretty much just vanilla K2 with new rocket silos while the other planets are slightly janky Space Age.

I really enjoyed krastorio2, the qol of 2.0 really improved it compared to in 1.0.
I’d second this opinion. With the caveat that I have not done a space age playthrough yet.
You can also try warp drive machine. Basically you have a tiny base and teleport to random new planets a few times per hour.
I have the same issue/goal. I’d like an overhaul with space age enabled. There isn’t one directly. There are overhaul and usually someone else makes a compatibility mod. I’m thinking of trying angels ores on my next play thru. It just got updated a month ago or something
