📋 About This Mod
This mod cuts the cost of ship and multitool class upgrades in half. Does not touch the cost of inventory slot upgrade. For that get Cheaper Multitool and Ship Slot Upgrades at No Man's Sky Nexus - Mods and Community (nexusmods.com). As these two mods would conflict, use the Luas and combine using AMUMSS (see How To pdf link below).

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Simple and effective: halves upgrade costs without touching slot prices, so you can still grind for slots if you want.
- Community-trusted with 167 endorsements and nearly 6k downloads, so it's been tested by plenty of players.
- Actively maintained (last updated May 2026) and includes a Lua script for AMUMSS, making it easy to merge with other mods.
⚠️ Cons
- Manual install only—no mod manager support, so you'll need to drop files into your game folder yourself.
- Conflicts with the slot upgrade cost mod, so you can't use both unless you combine them with AMUMSS, which adds extra setup.
- No detailed instructions beyond a link to an external PDF, so if you're new to modding NMS, you might need to hunt for that guide.
For No Man's Sky players who find the grind for class upgrades tedious and want a faster path to better ships and multitools. Skip if you're fine with the vanilla economy or if you prefer mods that also reduce slot costs—you'll need to combine this with another mod for that.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have the latest version of No Man's Sky, as mods can break after updates—check the mod page for compatibility notes.
- If you want to use this alongside the slot upgrade cost mod, you'll need to install AMUMSS and use the provided Lua script to merge them.
- Back up your original COSTTABLE.MBIN file before replacing it, so you can revert if something goes wrong.
