📋 About This Mod

I am no longer maintaining this mod, as such should you wish to fix it and reupload, you may do so to any platform either separately or in a pack, provided that you give me credit as the original author. As such I give no guarantee of functionality now or at any later time unless I resume maintaining this mod.

Description:

This mod changes the cargo capacity of L freighters and miners to be either 2x, 5x, or 10x their normal capacity.

I wasn't exactly happy with the tradeoff of spending 20x the cash on a large freighter to get anywhere from 2-5 times the capacity, so I made this.

Installation:

Unzip into your extensions folder in either your install directory or in your documents folder, it will work from either place.

If you are a Windows 7 user, this mod will not work for you as it is not packed into a cat/dat, if you need the mod packed, please let me know and I will do so.

🤖 AI-enhanced — based on mod data

This Starfield ship mod boosts cargo capacity for large freighters and miners by 2x, 5x, or 10x depending on the version you install. It's a straightforward utility for players who want to haul more resources without swapping ships. With 476 endorsements and 12,156 downloads, it's a proven choice for cargo-focused builds.

✨ Key Features

Increases cargo capacity of large freighters and miners by 2x, 5x, or 10x based on the version you choose.
Offers three separate versions to match your preferred balance between capacity and game difficulty.
Targets only large freighters and miners, leaving other ship types unchanged.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Community-approved with 476 endorsements and over 12k downloads, so it's a trusted pick for cargo haulers.
  • Simple choice between 2x, 5x, or 10x capacity lets you dial in exactly how much you want to haul.
  • Focused scope—only touches large freighters and miners, so it won't mess with your combat ships.

⚠️ Cons

  • Last updated in 2019, so it may not be compatible with the latest game patches or DLC.
  • No config options in-game—you have to pick a version and stick with it, which might mean reinstalling to change.
  • Potential conflicts with other ship overhaul mods that alter cargo stats, so check your load order.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Starfield players who spend most of their time mining and trading and want to cut down on back-and-forth trips. If you're a combat-focused pilot who rarely uses freighters, this mod won't add much for you.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Since this mod only affects large freighters and miners, make sure you're actually using those ship types to see the benefit.
  • If you're on PC, you can use a mod manager to easily switch between the 2x, 5x, and 10x versions without manual file swapping.
  • If you have other ship mods that tweak cargo capacity, load this one after them to ensure its values take priority.
