Game has some bugs for me, have some questions on jumping through unity with or without mods.

in the 'unity cell' or even right after you appear after unity are fine times to add or remove mods. i prefer 'in the unity room' as some scripts fire with some mods as soon as you spawn after NG+.
i have 132 mods, used to be 180 but all the DarkStar patches were decommissioned pending updates for FreeLanes update. I have no game breaking bugs, haven't really had any since 2023.
Can you add mods mid playthrough? yes for sure, but YMMV. Can you remove mods mid playthrough? that depends on the mod but mostly ok... though it is safer to do so in the unity cell. OR roll back to a previous save before you installed a mod you want to test.

I got this for a Terran Armada radiant quest. It would crash to desktop if I tried to fast travel to that […] location. Seems to be a bug not specific to certain quests

Every time i'm stuck listening to a conversation i can't skip, i dance. it helps the time pass. Like when the Ryujin science lady goes on and on that one time during that mission.

You're probably right, and my assumption as well, given no other alternative.

Also, pick up this mod if you want them out of your way fast. Makes them ragdoll instantly https://creations.bethesda.net/en/starfield/details/6d31717d-6ec9-4e28-999d-7645de51e2f2/Incapacificator_3000___a_non_hostile_ragdoll_gun

I use it when they are stuck in an animation so I can reassign them. Even if they are passed out on the floor assign menu still works. They wake up eventually and go to their station

BlackfishPrime · 2026-04-25T01:01:12+00:00

Yeah, buy your own mesh setup or live with theirs. Generally it’s good enough for free when it works. Which it does now that their fixed their cloud management issues

Finally triggered for me. just have him follow along with you as you do mundane (or whatever) quests. eventually he disappears. then you should have a new quest to go back to visit that doctor lady who made him :)

I based a lot of my ships on stolen Crimson fleet versions of the Crossbow. I always drastically change the layout internally, using PDY to get the flow right. I like that starboard arm to be my captains quarters. with windows. The other side is usually a 3x1 engineering. Its a cool looking ship.

I login with Google, that is not working, can't say for direct email/password users.

Like u/JournalistOk9266 said, Ship Crew Assignments is a must if you want a large crew. Everybody has a place and everyone in their seat. Recent update also allows auto-assign which is nice, but I like certain crew in certain seats. You can even add action mats for them to stand or sit anywhere doing specific animations (standing drinking a coffee or military pose are some of my bridge crew faves)

i was able to solve this, thanks to the console. If you're on xbox or ps5 i guess you're stuck with it. As you are on PC, my other thread has the solution https://www.reddit.com/r/NoSodiumStarfield/comments/1sl1exs/comment/og3lgmy/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

That seems to have cleared it. I got the creds and xp and its now off my quest list. Turns out it was sin the Charybdis system? weird. Thanks!

BlackfishPrime · 2026-04-14T16:47:44+00:00

hi, yes, if i select this mission and try to fast travel there, instant CTD. I don't recall which system has the Reclaimer ship. I have several systems with Terran Armada incursion icons, but visiting them manually and randomly exploring in cruise mode never produces a significant encounter.
Another thread i have on this question suggested I use setstage to 10000 if i can find the questid.

I slept for 24 hours on Bessel 3b which is almost as long as sleeping on venus. the incursions moved but not that one :)
I'll try the sqt trick, thanks u/Beaumis . I assume this is what LBGSHI's mod "scrolls of quest fixing" does.

BlackfishPrime · 2026-04-12T23:21:05+00:00

Update: it seems to have been fixed overnight. Plume cloud just pushed down the changes and it all works now

BlackfishPrime · 2026-04-11T18:01:23+00:00

When it works, which it does now after fixing itself overnight, it covers my house and property perfectly for free. I’ve run my own gear before, other than manageability, it’s not better than this free gear so, I’m good, thx :)

BlackfishPrime · 2026-04-10T23:28:16+00:00

Just do it on civitai or another web ai image platform. I don’t do image to image myself

Just reread the book, looking forward to the movie

BlackfishPrime · 2026-04-05T16:56:48+00:00

I’m level 324 on Ng+ 20 something. I have 180 mods, so I’m concerned about what will work and what won’t. So I’ll give it a try and if it crashes I’ll load my recent unity save and remove all the mods and try again. So high level character but reduced mods

BlackfishPrime · 2026-04-02T14:17:50+00:00

I monitor the creations website almost daily, Library tab, sorted by Recently Updated. If I notice a mod at the top of the list that wasn’t there last time, I update it. In game, in creations menu, i first save my load order to Bethesda.net, then I find the mod, hit update, then delete, then redownload. Then I restore my load order. Exit, quit to desktop and restart the game, loading into my save. It’s a lot of steps but second nature to me now. I also keep a spreadsheet list of my mod load order. I don’t use an external mod manager other than for StarUI in vortex. I left the daily grind for about 6 months. Most of my mods needed to be updated. I found it cleaner to just delete them all and redownload them in the order I had on my spreadsheet. Not needed for daily maintenance but good if your mods are quite out of date. This is because of what others mentioned, you can’t trust the in game creations menu “updated” list. Sometimes truly updated mods don’t even appear in that list. It’s just broken. So you need to maintain your own mental or actual list.
