📋 About This Mod
Sorry for making y’all wait so long. I currently have way too much on my plate for the foreseeable future, so I’m giving Mod access to Babscoole to help keep this up to date. You shall wait no longer!!

I could never bring myself to grind Quicksilver due to there being only one time-gated and repetitive source. This being said, there are just so many tasty items at the Exotic Vendor. I want to be able to acquire Quicksilver in fun, adventurous ways which take time to gather enough to buy everything. I couldn't find a mod that did exactly what I was looking for, so decided it was time to take a crack at making my first mod.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 718 endorsements and over 32k downloads — clearly fills a need.
- No more tedious Nexus grinding; you get Quicksilver from regular missions and exploration.
- Includes a LUA script for customization, so you can tweak values to your liking.
⚠️ Cons
- Crashed freighter rewards only work with land crashes — underwater crashes give nothing.
- Mission boards don't show Quicksilver in the UI, so you won't know until turn-in.
- Author stepped back and handed mod to Babscoole — future updates depend on the new maintainer.
For No Man's Sky players who want to earn Quicksilver through varied activities instead of grinding the same Nexus missions. Great for those who enjoy exploration and mission variety but hate time-gated content. Skip if you prefer cheating in Quicksilver or want instant rewards.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're on PC, you can use the included LUA script to adjust Quicksilver amounts to your preference.
- Remember that mission board rewards are granted on turn-in, not shown in the mission preview — don't be surprised.
- For crashed freighters, focus on land crashes to get the extra Quicksilver, as underwater ones won't trigger.
