• A hotkey to toggle the text on HUD

• Misc/fun quests

Bug Reports and Feature Requests

My mod has a github page where you can report any bugs you come across and request any features you think would be nice. Especially important to come tell me if you think reward calculations are not balanced. (I'm not too good at that)

Known Issues/FAQ

• When collecting easter eggs, player must be inside the ship when throwing or dropping it, otherwise it won't count towards the quest.
• Occasionally items spawn in unreachable places, mod does not have a way to check this so it might request items that spawned in glitched spots. (this is very rare)
• The amount of quests you get assigned is by default random inbetween 0-3. (randomness toggleable and amount configurable)

Regarding Game Balance

Its a straight positive for your crew, there are no punishments (for now) for not completing quests only rewards. With that being said the rewards are mostly minor but it's still a net positive.
