My crew are back to being normal again, my life is no longer in danger. I think.

Is there a mod yet to turn Sarah into Kryton?
Not yet, but there are many useful mods currently available.

Ahhhh it finally happened, bar some crashing not run into any other glitches, but now I noticed on a planet Andreja wasn’t running after me to go and smash up some Ecliptic.

She’s gone fellas… didn’t even leave a Dear John note, pretty hard to do some quest lines where there is just a blue dot where she should be standing in Aggies bar.

I don't think I've played in the last 2 or 3 weeks - mainly due to life - but it's not that engaging generally - more specifically due to the Ryujin storyline.
I went on a Ryujin gun rampage the other day, shot the place up and everyone in there, unfortunately there are about 5 or 6 essentials who don't die, but that means after 5 minutes they are back on their feet to shoot again.

And they say violent video games breed serial gun killers in real life.

Ah - I'm on PC.
Nvidia GeForce Lft ALT + F1 (saves bizarrely to My Documents/Videos/Desktop)
Windows PrntScrn button choose from full screen or crop from the bit that appears at the top (Windows 11 22H2) or just PrntScrn button for older Windows and then for all in your favourite or not so favourite paint app select paste, and save.

Engines can be very sneaky, suddenly new versions with more power can be unlocked at different levels.

My ship used to be powered with all these.




But now it's bigger and heavier but with upgraded engines it flies with less. Giving me dedicated extra space at the rear for reactor/grav drive and cargo while freeing up more space inside.

No mod for the engines, once you hit higher levels in the game better engines become available in shipyards, up to level 60 - https://inara.cz/starfield/ship-modules-list/181/

Oh I thought you meant increasing individual engine power. I do have no number of engines limit, alongside no ship size limit and no minimum landing gear limit, although I have a lot on that.

Finished the Constellation bit as there was nothing interesting else left to do. Didn't like losing everything and can't stand the Starborn ship I went to Deimos, Stroud-Eklund and Akila star yards and built my Serenity again, yes you start with no credits but I built it, saw how much it would cost and then console commanded that exact amount to buy it. So I am still starting with zero credits now but with one of my old ships (the one I installed the Armillary into after collecting it from a hidden outpost I built).

Not really sure if I am going to be doing much now though. This doesn't have the repeat playthrough appeal of other games as it is at the moment.

It's one deck higher than before, different cockpit used is 2 hab squares longer in the body, but weirdly the new one is lighter and uses lower B spec items to achieve the same performance. I have also added engineering habs in each wing with Hopetech corridors attaching them to the main body, as I did with my Enterprise build.

Yet it is almost 10x more valuable than the old one !!!! How does that work????

Old Serenity


New Serenity


I will end up making it smaller again but I got a bit carried away on the build bored and just went with it. Not totally happy with the change of cockpit, I might change it again after visiting other star yards.

Seeing how much bigger it was actually annoyed me so I just took out the cargo hab and the brig that were part of the original ship I modified, taking the cockpit down a level, shortening the engine pods, moving the mess hall to the top rear like it was on Serenity.

Value plummets from 586702 to 82450, how?

Got the original smaller cockpit on now, value gone up...


The "real" thing.


I'll probably look into this engine mod - https://www.nexusmods.com/starfield/mods/6156

If anyone is wondering they produce 36,000 thrust (3 versions that's the highest) with no reactor limit. So perfect if you want a clean ship with speed and manoeuvrability without having to add extra engines to spoil the look.

Just a little thing, but I haven't seen it mentioned.

Low gravity planets, and I mean really low. Why does gravity then work inside POIs such as mines (anything behind a loading screen I think?)

Came across The Valentine again, immediately shot him up and boarded. No singer to be found, just a load of UC Marines in a zero gravity environment. Killed them all, took the ship.

Modded it.
