Main Features
With the influx of mods coming to Starfield I want to try and help people create safe and compatible mods. When it comes to armor / weapons / gear many mod authors directly edit loot lists or vendor loot lists and thus instantly become incompatible with any other mod trying to do the same thing.
The fix to this is to use a simple script to dynamically inject the items into the loots lists when the mod is first loaded, but not everyone knows how to do this.
With this template you can simply drag your new gear into the relevant form lists, drag the chosen loot lists into another form list and you are ready to publish.
This Mod Template Does:
-
[]Simplify safe loot list injection for mod authors not versed in scripting
[
]Enable anyone to make safer mods for players[]Allow you to use this template for any free or paid mods - just credit me and provide a link to this template page
