📋 About This Mod
Yes, I am aware that there is another mod that does something similar, but they are quite different due to the amount of credits required to build items. Before the other mod was released I had my own version that I used for personal use. It was very much a cheat though, so I never released it because I had originally set all the items to cost only 1 credit. I finally took the time to customize the costs of every item.
Since you can buy resources from vendors, I decided to take the cost of the resources required to build an item to determine how many credits it would be.
Helium 3 Extractor
(5) Aluminum
Aluminum is valued at 7, Copper and Nickel at 10
(57) + (310) + (4*10) = 35 + 30 + 40 = 105
So a Helium 3 Extractor will cost 105 credits to build. If you have any skills that would normally reduce the resource cost, then it will apply to the credits as well.
And yes, this took FOREVER to do...
There are 2 options available. CHOOSE ONLY ONE!
One only changes the recipes to use credits and the other one also removes any research requirements.
This mod for Starfield lets you construct outpost and ship objects using credits instead of gathering resources. It simplifies base building for players who prefer a credit-based economy. With 310 endorsements and over 20k downloads, it's a popular convenience mod.
