Description
Balanced Faster Construction - X4Foundations

This mod rebalances station module construction in X4: Foundations by adjusting build times across all module types. The new timings are carefully tuned based on community feedback, personal experience, and reference data to provide a more streamlined, faster, and balanced station building experience.

how did it work out Fannus I was wondering the same thing.

Try it, if game is not crashing then it should work. The mod only job is to replace the construction times so it should't explode. Just backup your save game before overwriting them.

I'd love to use this mod, thanks for making it!!
I don't have all the DLC required. Any idea if it still works, or breaks the game in some whay?

I will create Xenons optional module soon but first I need to finish work on my modding tools.

Xenon not effected? Bummer

Well, what's important - and I haven't told is Xenons are not affected by this mod.

Modules affected are from conventional factions only.

Does the AI have the same faster construction?
