About this mod

Allows Argon NPCs to spawn with Pirate (VIG), Scavenger (RIP), and Yaki (YAK) clothing, and any can spawn with Yaki cybernetics.

Requirements
Permissions and credits
Do you like the outfits of the Vigor Syndicate, Riptide Rakers, and Yaki, but hate having to send all your ships to pick up a crew in order to see them? This mod adds some much-needed diversity to the inhabitants of Argon space. Travel is easy in the X-universe, and people migrate, change jobs, visit stations, you name it - and this mod lets your game reflect that.

With this mod installed, the human inhabitants of Argon Federation (ARG), Antigone Republic (ANT), and Hatikvah Free League (HAT) stations and ships can spawn wearing their stock outfits, the pirate outfits seen on Vigor Syndicate NPCs, the scavenger outfits seen on Riptide Rakers npcs, and the uniforms worn by the Yaki. In addition, all of them have a chance to spawn with Yaki cybernetics on their heads.

This also means that your own stations with Argon Habitats or Argon Dormitories will spawn these NPCs as your workforce, and thus will appear as crew on ships you build at your own Wharves and Shipyards with such workforces.

As written, about 10% of NPCs will wear pirate outfits, and of the remainder, about half will spawn with standard uniforms, 1/4 with Yaki outfits, and 1/4 with scavenger outfits. Any of these have about a 10% chance to have Yaki cybernetics.

A version of this mod is available that does not include Yaki cybernetics.

This mod is NOT compatible with other mods that add or alter the costumes of Argon NPCs, though they could hypothetically be modified to work with this one. This mod works by creating new Character Groups entirely so that the costume spawn rates could be customized; other mods would theoretically "work", but would affect NPC types that no longer are generated.

This mod does not affect Terran NPCs, so inhabitants of Terran Protectorate (TER) and Segaris Pioneers (PIO) stations and ships, as well as your workforce spawned from Terran Living Quarters modules, are not affected. This mod also does not add Terran outfits to the Argon, as such NPCs are already easy to find and acquire if the player wants them - though if requested, a version of this mod could be created to add them. This mod also does not affect NPCs spawned by Vigor Syndicate or Riptide Rakers stations and ships.

Special thanks to Grandsome for X4 Peak Fashion, from which this mod is inspired, and credit to them as well for Afro Hair Fashion, the changes of which are packaged into this mod directly. Also thanks to KO for Yaki Clothes for all Terran, from which I learned how to create new character groups to make this all work.
