💡 Beginner Tips

  • Since the mod changes contract destinations, make sure your mech bay is ready for any environment — you might end up in a desert or arctic planet without warning.

  • Keep an eye on your reputation with factions — random contracts might send you to systems where you're not welcome, so check the map before accepting.
