📋 About This Mod
Description
In general, this mod applies some changes to the unique exosuit technologies offered at either conclusion to the Atlas Path questline: the Star Seed and the Mark of the Denier.
The key change affects the Star Seed module - players who have decided to submit to Atlas and were granted this technology will be able to discover planets, minerals, flora and fauna in order to charge up the Star Seed module. Once fully charged, this module can be used to synthesise limited rewards,such as biome resources, stellar metals or Quicksilver currency.
In addition, both Star Seed and Mark of the Denier had their visual elements tweaked: now they feature dark icon background and coloured charge section icons.
