✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 1,171 endorsements and 48k downloads — clearly fills a need
- Simple tweak that gives builders more freedom without overhauling the game
- Recent update (March 2025) suggests it's kept compatible with current versions
⚠️ Cons
- May affect game balance or performance if pushed to extremes, but no specifics provided
- Only affects boundaries and cables — if you wanted other building tweaks, this won't cover them
For No Man's Sky builders who feel cramped by default base limits and want to stretch their creativity. Also for settlement builders who want to integrate their base more closely. Skip if you're happy with vanilla boundaries or want a full building overhaul.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Place the EXML file in the appropriate PCBANKS/MODS folder and ensure you have a modded game setup (disable EAC if needed).
- Test building near a settlement after installing to see the new boundary limits in action.
- If you use other building mods, check load order to avoid conflicts with boundary changes.
