So, this is a very unlikely scenario, but if you don’t research power poles (which isn’t a required technology to get to Vulcanus, although no sane person would avoid researching it), then you can’t craft any power poles, since there is no wood on Vulcanus, so it’s a softlock if you can’t research it from Nauvis. Also, isn’t this the same for Fulgora?

I understand the philosophy of “there is no point of fixing softlocks, if the only way to get them is entirely on purpose”, just wanted to confirm that these are, in fact, softlocks. Sorry for a dumb question.
