📋 About This Mod
Patch to use Ship Builder Categories to separate Cross Heavy Industries Parts from the Structures menu. Must have Ship Builder Categories v1. 17. 1 or later in order to use.
This will separate all decorative Cross Heavy Industries Model 3 engines, braking engines, and thrusters into an "Engines " tab and place all structural pieces into a "Structural " tab.
If this patch is used, these parts will no longer be located in the Structures tab.
- Cross Heavy Industries Model 3 parts remain purely structural in behavior.
Thanks to rux616 for creating and updating Ship Builder Categories to make this possible.
This patch integrates Cross Heavy Industries Model 3 ship parts into the Ship Builder Categories framework, organizing them into dedicated tabs for easier access. It's a quality-of-life mod for Starfield players who use both mods. With 102 endorsements and recent updates, it's a niche but useful compatibility patch.
