📋 About This Mod
Description:
V1: Simple mod that changes the distance value for space looting/docking and item transfer from your ship to 2500 meters.
V2: V1 + changes the ship registration fee to 25% of the ship value (same installation as V1, just use the V2 file)
Installation
Copy the content of the OMD folder (omdSHIPmodV1.txt) into your Starfield folder ( where the Starfield.exe is).
When your game starts, after the save file loads, press ~ to open the console and write: bat omdSHIPmodV1 , then press Enter and close the console.
This step should be done every time you start the game.
For more advanced users you can add the following to your StarfieldCustom.ini: Photo1
If you have multiple .bat files you can combine the content from all of them in a new text file and put that file name after the bat command.
Example: Photo2

This simple mod for Starfield increases the distance for space looting, docking, and item transfer from your ship to 2500 meters, and optionally reduces the ship registration fee to 25% of the ship's value. It's a quality-of-life tweak for players who find the default ranges too restrictive.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- No more floating in space to grab loot—2500m range is a game-changer for scavenging.
- The registration fee reduction in V2 saves you serious credits when buying or registering ships.
- Community-approved with 313 endorsements and over 16k downloads, so it's proven to work.
⚠️ Cons
- The extended range might make looting too easy, removing some of the challenge of close-range salvage.
- The registration fee change only applies to V2, so you have to choose between the distance tweak and the fee reduction.
- As with any mod, there's a risk of compatibility issues with other ship-related mods or future game updates.
For Starfield players who hate the default short looting range and want to grab salvage without piloting right on top of it. Also for those who want to cut down on ship registration costs. Skip if you prefer a more challenging, immersive looting experience.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to download the V2 version if you want the registration fee reduction, as the base version only changes the distance.
- If you're using a mod manager, let it handle the installation to avoid conflicts with other mods.
- Test the new looting range in a safe area to get a feel for how far 2500 meters actually is.
