🎯 Tips & Tricks
Since it's a mod for Starfield, make sure you've enabled mods in the game's settings and consider using a mod manager like Vortex for easy installation.
Test the new snap points in the ship builder with a cheap ship first to see how they work before committing to a complex design.
If you're on PC, check if the mod requires the Starfield Script Extender (SFSE) or any other dependencies—though none are listed, it's worth checking the mod page for updates.

⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing multiple mods that modify the same files without checking compatibility
👍 Pros
- Huge community trust: 719 endorsements and 39k downloads show it's a go-to for ship builders
- No new modules to learn—just more snap points on stuff you already use
- Simple concept, big impact: 268 extra positions means way more design freedom
👎 Cons
- No install instructions in the description—you'll need to figure out the mod manager or manual setup yourself
- Last updated in December 2023—might not be compatible with the latest Starfield patches
- Only affects structural modules, so if you're into habs or weapons, this won't help you
