✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-trusted with 441 endorsements and over 9,400 downloads.
- Three variants let you pick between instant or near-instant scans.
- Adjustable via LUA for players who want custom tuning.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in September 2021 — may not work with the latest No Man's Sky updates.
- Only one variant can be used at a time, so you have to pick your preferred scan time.
- No explicit instructions for manual installation beyond file placement, which might confuse newcomers.
For No Man's Sky players who are tired of waiting for scans to complete and want a faster, more streamlined exploration experience. Also great for modders who want to tweak scan mechanics using AMUMSS. Skip if you prefer the vanilla pacing or play on consoles where mods aren't available.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to rename DISABLEMODS.TXT to ENABLEMODS.TXT in your PCBANKS folder, or the mod won't load.
- If you're using multiple mods, consider merging them with AMUMSS to avoid conflicts, especially since this mod edits a global file.
- After installing, test the scan function on a planet to ensure the mod is working as expected.
