Void Crew - Deconstruct Loadout

Automatically deconstruct ship's loadout as you spawn.

 

🤔 Why this mod?

While there are other variations of this mod that have been shared on discord, the unique thing about my mod is that it actually deconstructs the load out items by asking the game to do it on your behalf rather than editing a deconstruction mechanism directly into the slot.

💡With this Mod

• You don't have to wait on the host to deconstruct things or worse waste ammo because you did not know host was planning to move the gun.
• It's a lot more resistant to breaking between updates as I'm not editing the game object directly. I simply prevent the game from marking the load out item as permanent fixture and then as it deconstructs, it automatically becomes a normal object that anyone can use.

⚠️ Do not mix with other deconstruction mods

This should go without saying if you've ready any of the above, but you should never have overlapping mods that touch the same part of game.

⏬ Manual Install

📃 Prerequisite

This is a BepInEx 5 mod and as such requires that you have BepInEx 5 installed and working properly. If you've not done that yet, please go to their documentation on how to get it installed.

You want the Stable (5.x - 5.4.22 LTS at the time of writing) MONO build when you're presented with choices.

If you already know how to get BepInEx working, head over to their Releases to grab the latest copy.

👌 Recommended

My mods support configuration through BepInEx Configuration Manager and I'd recommend you grabbing that as well to be able to tweak the mod to your own tastes.

✔️ Mod install

So you've got a working BepInEx 5 Mono installation running successfully. Now you can download this mods zip file. Unzip the contents into your game directory where you have your Void Crew.exe.

You should find the mod installed under Bepinex\plugins as DeconstructLoadout.dll.

👋 Shoutout

While I've had many people help me out by offering me feedback on how the balance was feeling, helping me shape the balance that my mods are in one person in particular has been happy to endure my experiments and many mission fails while I adjusted settings or tried new things.

So here's a shoutout to you my friend: Blaze.

Without your patience and company, I probably would not have poured hundreds of hours I've put in making the mods and even writing all the code that builds these readme files or store packaging!
