SE Overclock Mod

Subscribe on the Workshop: SE Overclock (FileID 3717639172). Sources live under SE_Overclock_mod; publish with tools/steamcmd/Deploy-Overclock.ps1. Use this only for new worlds. It merges Components, Blueprints, BlueprintClasses, all Prime CubeBlocks_*, upgrade scripts, and Prime config scripts. Prefab loot uses one session component (SEUpgrademodule.MoreLoot) for upgrade modules and Prime Matter rolls.

SE Upgrade Module Mod

Status (legacy)

Prefer SE Overclock (SE_Overclock_mod). This folder is kept for reference and migration notes (MIGRATED_TO_UNIFIED.md).

Overview

The SE Upgrade Module Mod enhances your Space Engineers experience by introducing sophisticated upgrade modules that can be applied to various grid types within the game. These modules focus on improving attack, defense, and energy efficiency, with the potential for upgrades up to level 10, offering progressive enhancements to your gameplay.

Features

Module Types

• Attack Module: Increases offensive capabilities up to LV10, boosting damage output.
• Defense Module: Enhances defensive strength up to LV10, improving resilience against attacks.
• Energy Efficiency Module: Optimizes energy consumption up to LV10, allowing for longer operation times.
• Speed Module: Increases movement speed with a trade-off on power efficiency.
• Berserker Module: Amplifies attack power at the cost of reduced defense and power efficiency.
• Fortress Module: Strengthens defense while reducing movement speed and power efficiency.

Leveling System

• Each module type can be upgraded to a maximum of level 10 by combining lower-level modules.
• Higher-level modules provide more significant benefits and can be crafted from multiple lower-tier modules.

Grid Enhancement

• Players can add "[Upgrade]" to the names of cockpit-type blocks (including beds) to enable module enhancements.
• The mod automatically detects and applies the highest level of each module type within the block's inventory.

NPC Grid Enhancement

• Some non-player character (NPC) grids can also receive enhancements.
• Enhanced grids showcase their total enhancement level in their names, calculated as the sum of all applied module levels (plus configured NPC offsets). Cargo prefab loot rolls use upgrade module levels 1–3 only for probability; cockpit NPC rolls use the full 1–10 range.

Crafting Materials

• Cerium Ore: Essential for crafting level 1 modules.
• Cerium Ingot: Refined from Cerium Ore for crafting.
• Lanthanum Ore: Necessary for crafting level 1 modules.
• Lanthanum Ingot: Refined from Lanthanum Ore for crafting.

Technical Implementation

• The mod features a real-time damage system that allows attack and defense modules to impact damage calculations dynamically.
• Missile enhancements are also influenced by attack modules, creating a more engaging combat experience.
• Full multiplayer support ensures that upgrades are synchronized across server-client interactions.
• Performance optimizations include load balancers to maintain performance stability during gameplay.

Optional tuning (world storage SEUpgrademoduleConfig.xml): PrefabLootMaxCargoContainers, PrefabLootMaxCockpitAttempts cap how many cargo blocks receive rolls and how many cockpits are tried per prefab spawn (defaults: 7 and 1).

How to Use

1. Setup Your Blocks

   • Rename your cockpit-type blocks (including beds) to include "[Upgrade]" in their name.
   • Access the block's inventory and insert desired upgrade modules.

2. Apply Enhancements

   • The mod automatically applies the highest level of each module type to the block.
   • Combine multiple lower-level modules to create higher-tier upgrades.

3. NPC Grid Enhancements

   • Certain NPC grids will automatically receive enhancements, which will be reflected in their names.
