📋 About This Mod

Starfield Fleet Expansion V1. 1

Requires the Ship Vendor Framework for ships to be available at vendors:

Also, please be aware: Due to what we believe to be a bug in the most recent update, some users are having issues with graphical stuttering in The Well, Neon, and other interior cells with crowds. The issue has been reported to Bethesda, but it has not been officially claimed by them yet, and there is no known work around as of this moment.

The "Starfield Fleet Expansion" mod aims to significantly enhance your spaceship experience in Starfield. Below are the key features:

  • []Expanded Ship Variety: The updated release now features over 30 uniquely designed ships, plus additional faction variants. From large cargo haulers to agile fighters, powerful corvettes, heavy gunships, assault dropships, and reconnaissance craft, these ships are meticulously designed to blend seamlessly with Starfield's shipyards and factions, enhancing immersion within the game’s universe and lore.

    []Abundant Choices: Players can choose from a wide array of ships, with even more options planned for future releases (see roadmap). Whether you’re a trader, explorer, or combat enthusiast, there’s a ship to match your playstyle.

    Added features:

    • []Dynamic Encounters: All custom ships have now been integrated into faction spawn lists, appearing in their respective variants during unpredictable encounters. As you explore the starfield, expect to meet these vessels as either friendly or hostile ships.

      []Boarding and Exploration: Like the existing ships in the game, this mod allows players to explore and purchase the new ships from vendors across the universe or board them during encounters. Be cautious—some ships are formidable adversaries!

      []Adjusted Loot Lists: Cargo haulers and transport vessels now carry loot proportional to their cargo capacity. You may come across empty haulers, but fully loaded vessels with abundant cargo are also possible, enhancing the realism of encounters and associated playstyles.

      []Field Guide: For a full catalog of all available ships, additional lore, ship levels, threat ratings, and information on whether a design uses glitch or vanilla building styles, refer to the added Starfield Fleet Expansion Field Guide.
