    Hello fellow starbounders, today I'm asking for some recommendations for mods that don't conflict with other mods too much. Im happy with anything, and If you've made a mod by all means tell me! I love seeing what the community can make and it keeps the game fun for a long time.

    ive had good success with every mod ive installed. i dont use world/character/weapon mods but most others seem fairly benign.

    Which mods do you use? Searching for mods takes too long so input on what mods people use is lovely.

    Persistent Farmables (allows crops to grow in real time if you like, even on other planets), Ammo Overhaul, Hunting+ (turns animals killed into corpses you can turn into raw alien meat, leather, alien bacon, rib meat, etc), I use Variety is the Spice of the Universe, but using it means no more coordinate sharing. Blood mod (gotta satisfy Khorne), Cotton (turn 5 plant fibers into a cotton seed at yarn spinner, each plant creates 20 fibers and several seeds), Furniture recycle mod. The Meteormod (no more losing blocks to meteors, they can still kill though), Drills+, Tabula Rasa, Endgame Matter Manipulators, Immersive Chainsaws (faster tree cutting), Immersive Picks (very high durability), No Pixel Loss Compressor, Ore Farming, Ores Galore (mainly to not have to hunt down a few iron ores to finish converting to steel and whatnot), Interesting Starter Swords, Gardenbot, FrackinFlora, Starmap Refit (for when mods demand you update the starmap, spend 1 pixel instead of a boss-only material drop after unlocking it).

    Those are just some of my mods, the others are race mods like Avali, Peglaci, Munari, the xbox character creation extender, etc.

    I use armor stand, to fill my base with guards that look cool
    pixel farming, for easy pixels
    colonies, for a village
    back items, for a sweet back light
    real ninjas, because ninjas
    and my own mod, colored ship lockers, ship lockers you can craft and place in many different colors
     
  6. NetSlayer

    NetSlayer Poptop Tamer

    Elevator mod.

    Do not underestimate how awesome this would be.


    Nevermind realised this is for already made mods, not a suggestion for new mods...

    Tried FCS?

    i like the customisable ship mod because it is hot

    oh and @xxswatelitexx thought me how to make a basic mood that replaces the grunting noises of male humens

    What is the colonies mod? It sounds epic.

    I like the sound of the persistent farmables mod. It does work where I can be on a different planet and crops will gro everywhere, yes?

    Persistent farmables doesn't seem to be necessary anymore, as of the latest official update crops grow just fine even if you're off-screen.
     
  11. Enzam

    Enzam Pangalactic Porcupine

    But do they grow if your off world?
     
  12. RyuujinZERO

    RyuujinZERO Supernova

    Yes, or they seem to. Hell, they seem to grow when you're logged off (I can only assume the timestamp the game is using is from the system rather than game clock)

    That's cool, happy that's how they do things now, much more deficient than hacking your hunger to 1000000 and going afk waiting for your crops to grow.

    Pentarctagon Over 9000!!!

    Oberic Spaceman Spiff

  16. RicochetOrange

    RicochetOrange Subatomic Cosmonaut

    Less Floaty Movement.
    Drumsticks/Avian Tail Feathers.

    I haven't checked lately but those were my favorites.
     
  17. 7Vec7Zus

    7Vec7Zus Void-Bound Voyager

    My mod combinations are as follows. All compatible and love how it adds to the game.
    Variety is the spice of life
    Spacbound
    Variety Patch from Spacebound.
    Shadow Casting Lights
    Ambient Lighting
    Madtulip's Spaceship Mod
    Dye Mod
    Horizontal Hatches
    Tabula Rasa
    Unique Drills
    Ammo Overhaul
    Starfoundry
    Pixel Goods

    All of those work well together and I Definitely recommend most of them.

    As for these..

    Dungeoneer Dungeons
    Creative Mode
    ISE (Industrialization: Starbound Edition
    Your Starbound Crew
    Starbound Colonies Mod
    Arcane Add-on
    New Horizon
    Exploration Enhanced
    Survivalist Mod

    Require new characters/most of them. I had a couple installed with each other but crashes where frequent and there is some interfering merging file compatibilities. But they are great mods. Especially ISE.

    There's a ton more mods that are great but I dont use them until the base game develops a bit more. Race mods etc..

    But thats my list of Recommendations. I enjoy using them and I hope they continue their development to increase our fun factor.

    Man I had no idea there were this many cool mods out there, so far I think I'm definitely getting the plagaci, gardener bot, colonies, frackin flora, hunter, ammo overhaul, and possibly variety is the spice of the universe.
