TA Auto Purchase Crates (APC):

Did the build a base and spam crafting genre just get turned on its head?

... in association with and as a result of hours of brainstorming with Willney4 (who deserves an absolute big THANK YOU!). Checkout Willny4"s Nexus Mods & Willny4's YouTube Channel - look out for his Mod review below.

Auto Purchase Crates transform outpost management in Starfield by automating the sale of surplus resources. This mod introduces specialised crates that sell excess resources, crediting the player directly and awarding experience points. Enhance your Starfield experience by automating resource sales and gaining experience effortlessly. Auto Purchase Crates offers a streamlined solution for efficient outpost management and progression.

Key Features:
  • Automated Resource Selling: Crates monitor your outpost's resource production, automatically selling surplus items without manual intervention.
  • Direct Credit Payments: Proceeds from sold resources are deposited directly to the player & by Credit Sticks, eliminating the need for vendor interactions.
  • Experience Gains: Unlike outpost fabricators, these crates grant experience points for each transaction, rewarding your outpost's productivity.
  • Comprehensive Resource Coverage: Utilises an extensive list of in-game resources, ensuring compatibility with all standard materials produced at outposts.
  • Conflict-Free Integration: Introduces unique, standalone items that do not interfere with existing game assets or other mods, ensuring seamless integration.

    Advantages:
    • Works for beginners & experienced players alike.
    • No more building a base & spam crafting to obtain XP,  you can enjoy taking your time to explore.
    • No more need to transport stuff to vendors, the TA will buy it from you right in your outpost.
    • No more outpost supply lines crammed full with too many goods, instead you can experience sufficient & effective throughput.

    APC Crates don't just store items - they sell excess Gas, Liquid, Solid & Manufactured items to the TA.
    APC Crates reward Players with credits & Auto Crafting XP! (Auto-Crafting XP is only awarded below level 300)
    APC Crates have a minimum stock quantity of 20 of each item for your own crafting needs.
    Quantities > 20 are automatically sold to the TA @ base item price - 20% (i.e. this is the TA's bulk purchase discount).
    APC Crates work on a 3 minute timer - you won't see much happen before that expires.

    Usage:
    • Connect the resource extractors to APC Gas / Liquid / Solid sales crates near the end of storage lines.
    • Connect the APC Gas / Liquid / Solid sales crates to a red APC Warehouse.
    • Connect your standard Outpost Warehouses to a red APC Warehouse.

    NB:
    • The APC Warehouse is sized at 1500 - enough to hold 20 of each Gas, Liquid, Solid & Manufactured item.
    • IF you want to increase the minimum stock reserves, just connect an extra container off the container you connected to the APC Crate / Warehouse or connect them earlier in your storage supply chain.
    • Bethesda's game engine generally loads items in view range and unloads them once you're out of view. If the scripts stop adding Credits & XP - just travel back to your outpost location and they should start up again once they've reloaded into the game.
    • The crates also produce Credit stick payments, but they won't be listed in a Gas, Liquid or Solid crate's inventory menu - they only appear once they have transferred to the Red APC Warehouse Crate. Caveat Emptor: IF you connect a red APC Warehouse to an outgoing cargolink, your newly earned Credit Sticks can go walkabout - giving a whole new meaning to the phrase "Credit Transfer". Don't forget to collect those Credit sticks from the red APC Warehouse while you're there!

    🔧 Compatibility:
    Auto Purchase Crates is designed for maximum compatibility:
    • Standalone Functionality: Introduces new items without altering existing game files, preventing conflicts with other mods.
    • Universal Resource Handling: Operates with standard in-game resources, ensuring broad applicability across various outpost setups.
