Just so I can build spaceships.

It’s just sooooo addictive and fun. But as long as there is no Sandbox mode, or a mode to save spaceship designs, I just can’t do it without using piles of money.

It’s not that I’m short of money (had like 700k when I started building like crazy), but wasting all that money just for a few ships I like, fly once or twice for fun, and then completely scrap and rebuild into new ones is just not feasible.

So, while I’m sad that I disabled achievements (and am too lazy to use ScriptExtender + AchievementUnlocker), I can now properly play “Space Lego”.

That’s all and thank you for coming to my TED talk.

    I gotta ask how are people having problems getting credits? I have 1.3 million and that’s after building a 700k ship. I do have an outpost farm for adaptive frames but those don’t sell for much. I sell everything that i don’t already have on me (i hoard everything i get unless i already have it) i also spend probably too much time going to the buildings that randomly generate and kill everyone and loot absolutely everything. Only cheat I’ve done is make my mass 999999 as i absolutely hate weight limits.

    Only issue I’ve seen doing this is my inventory is laggy when viewing the insane amount of guns i have. I could sell the different alterations of guns i have but when i sell i just look for shit that’s 2 or more. Hopefully a mod can come along and rename things better. For example you have a grendal and then a modified grendal but in the inventory it’s 2 separate things. Maybe a mod can move the special tag that’s generated when modifying/finding a weapon after the original weapon name so i can flip through faster selling guns i already have.

    Edit: for example

    Old:

    Grendal

    Modified grendal

    New:

    Grendal

    Grendal modified

      Yeah, your mass 99999 is why you have a ton of money. I don’t begrudge anyone playing the way they want to play, but don’t act like that’s not a significant ‘cheat’. Again, more power to ya

      Oh, I don’t have a problem getting money. I have the problem spending it.

      Like, of course I’m looting everything (don’t care about oxygen, I don’t die because of it) and selling it - but that’s super tedious. Great, the Key has 5 vendors next to each other, but when you play on very hard, half of the guns you find sell for 3-5k and those vendors are immediatly broke again.

      Just the loot from cleaning one ecliptic Camp (which is fun) takes super long to turn into money.

      Time I could spend building spaceships.

        if you’re not looking to cheat, you can find a nearby bench and just wait for 48 hours, they’ll reset after that and have full money stocks again. but otherwise the vendors are way too broke in this game.

        Oh ye the vendor creds are ridiculous. I put a mod on to 10x it. I got so tired of sitting in the chair in the den.
