📋 About This Mod
There will be no smoke blowing up anyone's arses today. If you already have a cargo mod like this one, you probably don't need this one. The only reason I made it was to fully complement my other ship module mods, and it will eventually be included into an all in one version. What this mod does offer, some of the cargo adds a little extra hull, all of the cargo is increase by 3x vanilla, but shielded cargo will always be 85% of the storage space of the non-shielded variety rather than 75%.
There may be a small reason to use this one, I did also add storage (2000) to the captain's lockers, and turn off their respawn flag. I make no guarantee that this solves the problems with items disappearing from it, but it might. Look in the comments to see how the testing is going.
This mod has been created with the experimental xEdit release found on their Discord server.
