📋 About This Mod
IMPORTANT UPDATE
1. 1. 2 Recompiled the .bse file as it was lagging build menu for some reason. If it still lags, drop me a message.
First of all, if you already installed this freighter, you can basically ignore this.
It has come to my attention that loading the freighter file through NMSC does not break the electric / teleport connections. As such I have swap the main method of loading the freighter and NMSC is preferred over goatfungus's save editor. There are also some very small additions to the mech bay (the door is now closed by default and only open when you get into the mech as well as some lights). Nothing important so you guys who already installed it can skip this.
Built a cyberpunk city on my freighter and decided to share the save file, walkthrough video is below
1. Tried to optimize lag in the freighter, manage to knock off 5 - 10 FPS worth of lag. BUT!
2. Added 400 objects worth of detail, so the end lag result is about the same
3. Added an orbital mech deployment station

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Unique and creative build—turns your freighter into a cyberpunk city, a standout in the NMS modding scene.
- Community-approved with 214 endorsements and over 7,500 downloads, showing it's a popular choice.
- Author actively optimized performance, even recompiling the .bse file to fix menu lag.
⚠️ Cons
- Installation is more complex than typical mods—requires external save editors and manual file import.
- Using goatfungus's editor breaks electrical and teleport connections, forcing you to rewire everything.
- Last updated in 2022—may not be compatible with the latest No Man's Sky updates, so check for issues.
For No Man's Sky players who love base building and want a dramatic, cyberpunk-themed freighter that feels like a different game. If you're into sci-fi aesthetics and don't mind a bit of save editing, this is a must-try. Skip if you prefer vanilla-style bases or don't want to risk breaking your current freighter setup.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Always back up your save file before using any save editor—this mod overwrites your freighter base, so you'll lose your existing build.
- Use NMSC instead of goatfungus's editor to avoid breaking electrical and teleport connections, saving you hours of rewiring.
- If you experience build menu lag after installing, check the mod page for updates or contact the author—they've fixed similar issues before.
