DeadAir Economy Overhaul No DA Wares X4 9.x compat fork

DeadAir Economy Overhaul (No DA Wares) — X4 9.x Compatibility Fork

Community-maintained continuation of DeadAir Economy Overhaul by DeadAirRT under the GPL-3. 0 licence he granted at retirement in September 2025. This variant has the three DA custom wares (da_mil_schematics, da_adv_schematics, da_laborunion_contracts) and all their production modules removed. All other DA economy tuning is preserved.

If you want the full DA experience with those wares present, use the standard mlog4 DA Eco fork instead.

What it does

A comprehensive economy rebalance for X4 Foundations, minus the DA custom-ware pathway:

• []Pricing rebalance across hundreds of wares[/]

  []Production chain tuning for scale[/]

  []Region yield tuning where applicable[/]

  []Bigger NPC factories, wider clearance, multi-location expansions[/]

  []Hullparts → claytronics recipe swap on station build modules (reduces supply-chain seizure risk)[/]

  []Workforce effect strengthened[/]

  []Full DLC compatibility (Split / Terran / Pirate / Boron / Timelines)[/]

  Choose your Scripts

  Because this variant has no DA custom wares, you can pair it with any Scripts option:

  • []DeadAir Scripts (No DA Wares — X4 9.x compat fork) — my matching Scripts fork, same lineage[/]

    []No DA Scripts at all — you get a pure economy overhaul without DA's dynamic-universe layer[/]

    X4 9.x compatibility fixes inherited

    • []7 silently-failing DA patches re-aligned — DA-Eco's biggest patches were broken throughout the 8.x → 9.x era. Now applying correctly:

      []Bigger NPC factories (per-station module limit 1 → 5)[/]

      []More clearance (safepos radius 3 km → 21 km)[/]

      []Multi-location factory expansions[/]

      []Larger built-in storage (~12 h production storage)[/]

      []Race-specific structural connectors[/]

    [/]

    []Mining efficiency 90% now applies — DA's intended NPC mining slowdown was silently no-op'd[/]

    []NPC galaxy quotas restored — 16 God-script quotas match current vanilla quota fields[/]

    []Argon composites / claytronics thresholds restored — economy → security selector rewrite[/]

    []138 dead patches removed — vanilla 9.x has converged on what DA wanted; these were producing load-time errors without changing behaviour[/]

    Specific to the No DA Wares variant

    []Three DA custom ware definitions removed — wares don't exist in the game state[/]

    [*]60 secondary-ware injections removed — DA-Eco's <add> blocks that added <secondary><ware ware="da_XXX"/></s
