Yeah sorta.

[Squiggles]

Wiremod.

[Dropshock]

Wiremod, PHX, and what ever other add-ons look fun.

Link?

They'll just go "there's several links,go google it."

Blockland Models are quite fun to use if you like mucking around.

But I guess if we are talking one you NEED it's PHX and Wiremod.

They're two totally diffrent games.

Life Support 2 (or 3. 2 is better though, in my opinion.)
Spacebuild 2 (or 3. Depends on what Life Support you got.)
Wiremod

Done. :)

I really like the NPC Camera and the spawn points/factions things. You'll need Counter Strike if you go online.
