✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solves a real annoyance for faction-aligned players (288 endorsements show it's appreciated).
- Tiny mod, so it's easy to install and unlikely to bloat your load order.
- Active development—last updated October 2023, so it's not abandoned.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects faction members; if you're a neutral or enemy, it does nothing for you.
- Might conflict with other mods that alter faction or scanning behavior—check your load order.
- Niche use case: if you don't play as a faction member, this mod is useless.
For Starfield players who roleplay as loyal faction members and hate getting scanned every time they dock. If you're a pirate or independent, skip this—it won't help you. It's a pure quality-of-life tweak, not a content expansion.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have the correct faction rank or membership before expecting it to work—some stations might still scan if you're not high enough.
- If you use a mod manager, install this like any other plugin and enable it in your load order.
- Test it at a faction-controlled station (like UC or Freestar) to confirm it's working.
