Alternative and credits
The "tangent" method of this mod is inspired by Tangent mod. There is an updated version on the Astroeneer Modding Discord server. Join the server: https://discord.com/servers/astroneer-modding-774729322674126858 and download the Tangent_Mod-*.CT file in this channel.
Troubleshooting
Known issues
- The game may crash on startup. This is probably an issue with UE4SS, I can't fix it. However, if the game crashes frequently on startup, try setting bUseUObjectArrayCache to false in the UE4SS-settings.ini file.
- The game may crash when using the "auto" method. Make a save before using it.
Logging
You can see the logs in UE4SS.log or in the UE4SS GUI Console.
You can enable the UE4SS GUI Console in UE4SS-settings.ini in the [Debug] section.
