Manhattan Project : Energy Empire [Scripted Setup]

Description
From the ashes of war, nations rise to power in the atomic age. Each player takes control of a nation struggling for power in the latter part of the 20th century. They build up their nation’s industry, commerce, and government by acquiring resources, building structures, and tapping sources of energy. The price of oil is going up, and nuclear energy is the wave of the future. The Manhattan Project: Energy Empire is set in the same "universe" as The Manhattan Project, but it's a standalone game, not an expansion.

The major threat in Energy Empire is not war, but uncertain global impacts, that result from side effects of industrialization and pollution. Many actions come with a cost. So, as nations become more industrious, they also increase the amount of pollution in the environment. Careful use of science can mitigate the harmful effects of industry, and can also help avert global crises.

Energy Empire uses worker placement, tableau-building, and resource management mechanics. On each turn, a player can choose to either work or generate. On a work turn, a player plays a single worker on the main board, then uses workers and energy to activate cards in their tableau. Players may spend energy to use an occupied space on the main board, so no spaces are ever completely blocked. On a generate turn, players get to renew their supply of energy by rolling "energy dice" that represent nuclear, coal, oil, solar, and other forms of energy.- BBG

Actually feel free to take from this mod, it has the promo cards and expansion cards so a lot more late game events and nations and more buildings. And better resources: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2752545472&searchtext=energy+empire

Does the script affect the resources? I have better versions of the resources in my mod and I'm wondering if I can swap them in and still use the scripting.

A few comments:

1. Scripted setup does not deal two achievements to each player to choose from! This is part of the base game setup rules.
2. You should probably limit the number of dice allowed in the game, they are limited to the supply.
3. The "Nation Card" text shows above any cards placed there, making it hard to read the cards in that spot.
4. It would be better if you were allowed to stack energy and workers on a space and still have the generate script work by returning the energy and workers to your mat. As it is right now you can't stack pieces or the script won't return them properly.
5. Are there models available for oil barrels and steel resources? They are just coloured cubes right now and it's not always obvious which is which.

The collection used this priority system:

1. Mod's Files Availability: Mod with all/most files still available for download
2. Feature completeness: Mod with greatest inclusion of expansions and/or promos available for the board game title

Please also note that a mod that makes selection for this list very well could be one in which the mod author borrowed the majority of assets from another workshop listing, so full thanks to all who worked on a mod.

Thanks for your hard work!

Playing through for the first time, and I'm impressed with the detail on this mod.

Any chance of adding snaps to the UN Track? We keep accidentally sending our tokens to the score track instead
Also, during setup, the game doesn't deal out two achievement tiles to each player
