Configurable Parameters

Overview

Configurable Parameters allows you to adjust a variety of settings via an easy to use GUI.

• By default, everything is left at vanilla settings, so if you are only interested in certain aspects, you can just configure those. • Custom parameters are stored directly in the savegame (Sandbox.sbc); hence you can have different configurations for each world. • Changes are applied during session initialization and are purely code based, so there won't be any conflicts or problems caused by hardcoded changes in config files.

Features

So far, the following settings can be adjusted:

Blocks

• Armor Blocks Settings Define the resistance (damage multiplier), deformation multiplier and showing of the visual edge for light and heavy armor blocks(supports AQD - Armor Expansion). • Ore Detector Scanning Range For the small and large grid vanilla ore detector (modded ones are ignored). • Battery Initial Charge • Use clear overlay screen for cameras • O2/H2 Generators Settings Define the power consumption as well as the IceComsumptionPerSecond (processing speed) of small- and/or largegrid O2/H2 Generators. For example you can increase the power consumption up to the point, where ice won't give you free power. • Hydrogen Engine Settings Define the maximum potential power output, efficiency and fuel capacity of small and largegrid Hydrogen Engines as well as the Prototech Fusion Reactor. • Laser Antennas Settings Define the idle, turning and operational power consumption and the maximum range. • Gravity Generators Settings Define the range / radius of the (Spherical) Gravity Generator.

Lighting Blocks

• Searchlight Settings Define the maximum AI targeting range, lighting range and intensity individually for small & large searchlights. Option to use a clear overlay when directly controlling the searchlight (if you are using it like a camera). • Spotlight Settings Define the maximum lighting range and intensity as well as the required input power for small and/or large spotlights. • Floodlight Settings Define the maximum lighting range and intensity as well as the required input power for small and/or large floodlights of all variations.

Ship Tools

• Ship Drill Settings Define the drilling radius of the small and largegrid ship drill (including DLC variants) as well as the Prototech Drill. • Ship Welder Settings Define the welding radius of the small and largegrid ship welder (including DLC variants). • Ship Grinder Settings Define the grinding radius of the small and largegrid ship grinder (including DLC variants).

Weapons

• Weapon Settings Adjust the ammo damage, ammo range, turret AI targeting range, resistance and shot deviation angle for each weapon block including modded ones. Disabled when using WeaponCore.

Planets

• Planet Settings Define oxygen content, breathability, air density, temperature, wind speed, meteor spawning and radiation settings per planet (the list of planets is generated dynamically and includes modded ones as well).

Environment

• Maximum Speed For small and large grids. Please note, that the character speed is hardcoded in the game to be 10 m/s faster than the maximum speed for grids, allowing you to always be able to catch up to grids. • Missile Speed Initial and target speed • Weather Settings Define the amount of damage caused by lightning strikes (can be reduced to 0 to make them harmless) and whether or not lightning strikes can hit grids and/or player characters.

Characters

• Jetpack effectiveness Limit the usage of character jetpacks to "Space" (0.00g) or "Moon" (0.25g). Affects both the female and male standard character (compatible with custom character models from Male character variety and Female character variety). • Character Resources Define the oxygen & energy consumption and oxygen + hydrogen suit and bottle capacity

Ores

• Ore Richness/Density Define the quantity of ore mined from a certain amount of voxel volume for each ore type • Asteroid Ore Spawning Define the ores and their rarity to spawn in asteroids (Supports all modded ores. Can be used alongside Procedurally Generated Ore to override Scarce Resources) • Meteorite Ore Spawning Select which ores will spawn from meteorites (see above)

Economy

• Economy Settings Define the refresh time of NPC Station stores and set multipliers for the item amount they offer and order in the store as well as request by acquisition contracts. Modify reputation multipliers for direct and derived standing changes with factions. Adjust the base prices of all ores to rebalance the whole economy.

Audio

• Soundeffect Volumes Gives you fine control over the volume of various sound effects, for example to make tools and production facilities less noisy.

Encounters

• Planetary Encounters - Factions Modify the factions of planetary encounters, spawned by the base game.

Modular Encounters Systems

• Extended settings, if Modular Encounters Systems is used - Replace creature weapons (Rocket Launchers, Elite Grinders/Weapons containing Platinum)
