About this mod
XRSGE Tweaks is a collection of changes to make the first part of the game more immersive.
A lot of things tweaked to allow the lone pilot experience last longer.
Please cope it with REM where capital ships cost much more (but are lethal)

- Permissions and credits
- Changelogs
Features of this mod (to avoid overlapping with other mods that do single parts of it):
- if using Argon Pirate Start, you start as enemy to ALL! Rank is very low, only Scaleplate rank is positive. Minor rebel factions have better tolerance towards you. Major factions will shot at sight.
- you start with HQ and Boso (Argon Pirate Start), HQ is stripped down to a Terran dock (my PHQ2 mod is required). If you make other starts the HQ will be the one from PHQ2 mod.
- Scaleplate is unlocked, it means you can gain more rep
- teleportation is limited to sector within (mass teleportation can be researched thereafter)
- ship mods can not be searched, you start with knowledge of basic Mk1 blueprints. To unlock other Mk1 and Mk2 blueprints you can buy the data from any trader. To unlock Mk3 blueprints you have to buy the data from Pirate traders. This data tool is illegal among all factions.
- traders need higher rank for advanced and expert trader (this latter introduced by XRSGE mod)
- (to compensate) firstly hired pilots start with higher stars in piloting and morale
- you can sell all the illegal stuff to the shady guy
- you can sell/buy SETA (700.000cr)
- you can sell/buy all crystals
- you can buy 3 and 4 stars seminars
- you can buy (vanilla hidden) trade station's docking module
- rewards for missions are higher
- police license can be bought also with negative rank (better way to increase rep than shooting civilians).
- trade subscriptions have different cost, those of small factions are much cheaper.
- SINCE 1.0.2 the Wayward Scion start has PHQ and Boso in the new location as the Pirate Start
My mod New PHQ is required, please download version PHQ2 if you use the Argon Pirate Start
XRSGE is MANDATORY if you use ARGON PIRATE START, otherwise not
REM mod is highly recommended, for how it makes capital ships very costly but also very powerful
Young Gun Start is replaced with Argon Pirate Start
Other starts are tweaked to have lower reputation with hostile factions at start, modified starts are:
- the Wayward Scion
- both Split starts
Please avoid any other mod that changes the same things (like learn all things mod), it would result in unbalance.
All pirate (bailing) mods and the headhunter mod by Chill are a perfect combo instead.
And of course all rpg mods as the Kuertee's ones
Some single features are to be found in other mods, so if you don't like the whole package please download and endorse the other mods:

A special thanks to Dj_Fredy in ego's forum who helped me nail the script to make the blueprints unlock after trade.
