Mod Support

Brandon Carrell shared this feedback ago

Completed

So I've watched alot of the videos of the PC version of Space Engineers and I feel like alot of cool stuff would be gained if we had Mod support. I've seen videos with Omega lasers and Coil guns and a bunch of other cool stuff that I feel would make the Xbox environment so much cooler. And you can make it like all other game son Xbox with Mod support and want the players that using mods there is no guarantee of game stability. There's alot of things I'd like to use for some of my build but unfortunately they are mods I cannot access. Any reply would be cool I'd like to see this happen.

Make a standalone mod site and menu for Xbox

I get why steam isn't supported by Xbox but I don't see why we can't have mods on Xbox. If you were to overhaul the mod menus, both PC and Xbox mods together like Bethesda did with Skyrim and fallout 4, it sure would bring the community closer. The current mod site for Xbox is clunky, difficult to navigate and doesn't always load. Plus, getting shared PC creations to even port to the Xbox is again, difficult and tedious

Mod support like all other game

Why don't add a mod support with a personal development kit for the modders (example: Fallout 4)

Mods Space Engineers Xbox One X

A tip if possible, the Mods that people use most on the PC be migrated to the Xbox, because we know that the mods help give more hours of game to the community. Example of companies that brought most mods to the Xbox was Bethesda with Skyrim for Xbox, Farm Simulator 17 and 20 also has support for several Mods. So I believe that it will not be a problem with Microsoft, since Skyrim even has several very controversial mods on Xbox. I hope this tip helps, because the community of players on the consoles has numbers of players that is much higher than on the PC and that would help the game and the producer even more in the future. Thank you for your attention Beto

Mods

If there is any way for mods to go on Xbox that would be great.

connor slater

Mods weapons

Any chance we can get laser weapons this is a sci fi game I would expect this to be a standard weapon already in the game also plasma weapons would be cool.

Braxton

Ideas and questions

So where do I begin I have some ideas for the game like large oxagen tanks and liquid oxagen tanks/upgrade mogules to be able to add more than 4 by using convator juchions/ a compressed mogule/compress the ore and decrease the space it takes up in storage by half /atmospheric condincer collects trace had in a atmosphere and collects dust and makes stone 1.5%

some new weapons hand held and for ships like lasers and plasma weapons

Now I have some questions will there be a preformece upgrade and a new Max block limit

Question 2 will there be mod saport

question 3 will there be a way to make custom scripts mods and upload images for factions and music I like to listen to my tunes wile I work

Mods, and planetary update

I agree Xbox should support mods for SE, also in the star system it shows the alien planet but in game it is NOT there but when you use the terrain thing it has alien grass and stuff such as titan, plus devs can you try add the unknown signals because on Advanced settings it shows UNKNOWN signals but its un selectable, hopefully you can add those keen support p.s can you make the xbox servers bigger because its unfair that PC can get ALLOT of players in a server thx😋🤗

Samantha

planets and mods

Samantha

Mod support for Xbox!

I Agree with allot of people who want Mod Support for the xbox!, it would make the game Very fun for the people like me who want more lights/deco's/furniture/new ship blocks & a BUNCH more, hopefully in the future keen support will hopefully add mod support for the xbox, p.s Love the game 10/10

Commander Chaos Wolf

mod support/ new block

There are many great mods but one that sticks out is build and repair i would love if either this mod or maybe make something like it for space engineers/ if there jump drives and other such blocks why not a block that can help build and brake down blocks it would help with blueprints and for in and out of combat instead of half way tearing down your ship trying to find damage blocks

Idea

Why not have means to have better walking machines or stage rockets or allow us to make tubes and true space capsules and i mean true mods like say rain or rocket sounds or landers from nasa or like spacex with falcon 9 landing. I mean let us use real mods for xbox

Raiden

Mods on Xb1

Please add mod downloads to xbox

love the game nice job

Jacob Oberlander

Mods (Hypothetical)

first love the game and i love what you are doing. I'm not asking if mods are coming to Xbox but I'm asking if its possible if they even could. like scripts, isn't it illegal to add modding support to Xbox? but couldn't you bundle mods everyone votes on in the game? or add the bundled mods in experimental mode. but keep up the good work, and I'm glad and thankful that its even on Xbox.

Jacob Oberlander

Mods (hypothetical)

Is it possible to add mods in beta or ds like scripts? I mean like you bundle mods everyone votes on into the game just like scripts. Would it be even Possible?

HunterGames468

CONSIDER Mods

Ok you guys shold actually consider adding .MODS. SCRIPTS ECT, because i know its very possible like for example fallout has mods and scrips on xbox and even Minecraft but again im not trying to push it plz consider. - HunterGames468

Hi,

There are several reason why mods in general are not supported. One of the biggest one is that Xbox does not support for actual scripting. You can not make C# script for your mod and run it on xbox. That feature is a) not available b) it's actually forbidden. Yes, some of the mods dont need that, but you will end up will split between Xbox and PC anyway.

Maddious (Old Account) ●

I don't think Microsoft will ever allow scrips to run on OS level, for obvious security reason. That said, they can always run there own virtual host process container that runs the necessary C# runtimes + other requirements for mods and scripts to work properly. That way you isolate it from the main OS completely.

That being said this is probably something that Microsoft is already working on for the Xbox Series X/S. Still this requires some teamwork between Microsoft & Keen, but I'm sure it's possible, though the development time would not be a fast one. And probably only make sense if they want to implement some kind of cross-play, standardizing both versions of the game and make the steam workshop legacy and move all of that in-game completely for both versions!!

We will consider this feature. Keep voting.

Thank you for your feedback!

I was not talking about mods I was trying to sugest content of a next dlc or new blocks in a update or an expansion pack of some kind

I totally agree mod support for the xbox one would only make the game Evan more fun for the player.

Hopefully the next update is Mods and new planet🤞

Oh change the earths atmosphere to blue bc its white

I hope we get Mod support because id like to get the speed mod that lets you go way over 100 or / lets you go inf, oh can you add the new planets to home system to thx

Oh can you make earths atmosphere blue and add the new planets to home system

Austin Starr ●

Xbox wouldn't be able to support mods because of how much pressure it would put on the system and having larger servers would put pressure on the game. We also already have those planets.

URL

Brennan Williams-Bilinski ●

Dedicated servers would actually take pressure off of the system. While Microsoft allows external assets for mods, making it a possibility, the mods would need to go through some sort of screening process. The Xbox is capable of handling modded gameplay to an extent.

xbox series x

Samantha ●

It really wouldnt really put pressure on the game because theres a limit of how much mods you can get before it stops working tho + larger servers are the same nothing would change because players arent a PCU so..?

URL

Samantha ●

The system DOES NOT have anything to do with it to its in game modding just aswell as servers but ok?..

URL

Samantha ●

But i hope the up the speed limit to 1000 or 500,incase you want to orbit a space station / base but goodnight

URL

Brennan Williams-Bilinski ●

The other planets are now available in the game, however you are limited to 3 planet types. For example, you can have Earth, Alien and Titan in a game and spawn multiple of each but you wont be able to add more any other than those 3.

URL

Samantha ●

YES im so happy

URL

Samantha ●

On pc they had every planet on home system i hope they add alien or idk lol

URL

Samantha ●

Hopefully keen up's the speed limit to ∞ or 100, 500 incase you want a orbital space ship/ base or station 6

URL

Kevin Is Nice ●

agree but the limit is like 50k-100k mps

URL

Samantha ●

Kinda like how we have the workshop there could be a modding part or..idk im soooo DESPERATE for mods+scripts so my survival game isnt boring+ hopefully the next update is mods eeeek

URL

Samantha ●

Hopefully you guys add the New planets to home system or alien titan ect..

URL

Brennan Williams-Bilinski ●

You can spawn in more planets (as long as one of the three already present in the save). For fun you can spawn more Earth Planets, Mars Planets and Moons with different sizes for fun:)

Samantha ●

Ohhh

It would be fun (WAY MORE FUN) - if we had mods because people like me! Would love the more turrets mods furniture,dec, ship parts and scripts i hope they add mods in the future + this post is under consideration 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

Samantha ●

I wonder when we get mod support its been 51d, probably the virus is slowing everything down like not everyone at work

Joshua Snowdell ●

Please!! Would love mod support! I know its alotta work but it'd be worth it!

URL

Samantha ●

Uhhh sure??? (ntr

Jeff Castor ●

The main reason I would like mods isn't for the fun things like giant cannons and such, its to customize the usability of some blocks. For example one of the most useful mods I have on PC extends the range of a large laser antenna to 2500km. So they actually gain a use as a long range communication system.

URL

Jacob Oberlander ●

yes mods are needed in xbox. right now the two different versions feel like two different games

URL

Scottith ●

While I want mods I want high quality mods! If they can implement this I’m on board

URL

retro error ●

We need this ASAP, If we could do what the pc does with Mods we could be more creative and have more fun plus it would keep the game fun for a while

URL

Kevin Is Nice ●

yes mods are a must. so the games are equal. they should be like an experimental mode thing only.

URL

Jacob Oberlander ●

one day guys, one day...

URL

Chojin613 ●

Assertive Cargo Ships and, is it (?), Asseritve Stations would make planets a lot better

URL

Jacob Oberlander ●

more weapons like long barrel gat guns, lasers, cannons, bofors, and energy shields would make the game really fun

URL

HunterGames468 ●

Try and get this to be the top of the list

URL

Jacob Oberlander ●

there is already a mod support topic out there, but yes, we need mods.

URL

Henry Augenstien ●

I´ve seen a youtuber called Splitse and he has a series called survival unlikely and if you are able to make so then xbox can have mods then there could be a chance that I could try and remake that with the same mods and have a lot of fun. Also if you could make it possible could you potentially make it so pc scripts can be downloaded on xbox because I have seen a lot of cool scripts there.

URL

Jacob Oberlander ●

many people use mods in there game.

but we are almost at a hundred votes. happy to see the community alive

URL

Henry Augenstien ●

So glad to see this community alive and wanting to add mods to the game

ONE MORE VOTE TOO 100!!!!!

Thank you Keen, our prayers have been answered.

What's the progress of Xbox mods as I'm intrigued by some different ones I've come across. Merry Christmas everyone

URL

John Fink ●

Best way to use the limited mods that we DO have access to is to download the SE Beta. Thats what I did as Nitrado is an absolute ripoff.

URL

Jacob Oberlander ●

I wish Keen could bundle the shield and laser mods into the game.

URL

Darren Harper ●

Now that we have mods the next step is scripted mods like Modular Encounter Spawner. Unfortunately there aren't many creators willing to upload to mod.io for Xbox users.

URL

Adrian Gander ●

Is the beta the only way to get Xbox mods to work as I can import ships/rovers/stations but stuff like azimuth mods I can't get to work. They don't turn up

URL

Darren W. Pearce (Dwolfyone) ●

Yep. Mods are only on the beta at the moment, until Keen update the main retail game - which is likely going to be the next big update. Mods are a big thing, so they'll want to do a live stream like they've done for the last bunch of big changes to the game.

URL

Mike Jones ●

Azimuth works for me and I don't play the beta version since idk how to do that lol. But I do hope they can make mod support at some point. I highly doubt it'll be available for Xbox one and maybe at some point for Xbox series consoles.

URL

Darren W. Pearce (Dwolfyone) ●

We've had Mods on the retail for a while now, originally they were only on the Beta/Demo because it was always ahead of features compared to retail SE. Mods were brought into retail on March 2021 with the Community Crossplay update.

However - the Beta is the only place you can remove Block Limits for now.

The best way to get the Beta/Demo is to (a) check in your Ready to Install List, or to go to the Official Club, scroll left and choose: Switch Game then choose the Beta/Demo.

The only Mods we can't use on Xbox (any version) right now are the ones that have built in client side scripts, since those won't even run on a Dedicated Server.

Adrian Gander ●

Thanks, hope it's soon as I can't find or access the Xbox beta version

Hallo spiele seit paar Monaten Space Engineerings auf Xbox mit einem Kumpel der per PC spielt und mein Anliegen ist das es toll wäre wenn man bei den ganzen Blöcken und so diese Umrandung nicht hätte damit man besser bauen kann da man in den Felder dann nicht weiter bauen kann und man gewisse Blöcke nicht gut zusammen bringen kann daher meine Bitte das man das vill entfernt so das man Blöcke und usw besser setzen kann und man seinem Bau Fantasien mehr Freiheit hat

Und das man vill eine Lösung findet das xbix und PC Spieler alle mod aus dem Solo Spiel im Multipler benutzen kann

Mfg
