Simple mod for replacing the materials required for PHQ research from the standard commonwealth materials to Terran equivalents.
Material amounts were decided by using the rough conversion rates that already exist in game, and then tweaking them to be more sane.
As they stand now (v0.01) the equivalent credit cost for researching with Terran materials is anywhere from around 7 to 20 times the credit cost of the default commonwealth research materials.
I didn't tweak this further because it felt in line with the existing Terran economy - low complexity, high cost.
For the curious:
Here is a comparison between base game and mod resource costs.
