This doesn't seem to be able to change relations with scale plate pact for some reason even though they're listed in the faction options.

@Sakata, I'll look into a better way to do the teleportation. I elected to make it menu only to begin with as I didn't like that it would teleport every time that guidance was set.

Could you find a way to make the Teleport Option a 'toggle' similar to how the other mod worked? Having to navigate the clunky menu every time is a bit of a pain. The original it would allow you to set the option 'on' then any time guidance was manually set by the player it would teleport.

@Stargazer Esc > extension options

How do I access the menu?

god mode no work for my ships

Thanks for making this. I've pretty much had to remove all of the other modders' stuff cause it was breaking stuff incessantly.

Big TY, this mod makes this buggy game so much more playable and fun.

"Cheats using the mod support APIs that don't randomly break things in the background."

Only that the used mod support API breaks things, a lot of things....

One thing that bugs me about the other cheat mod is changing ship faction, is there any way when you do it that you can retain whatever orders we gave them and ONLY change the faction?
In the other mod they suddenly start patrolling the sector.

On a related note when changing station faction it would be awesome if subordinates got changed too :)

Love the idea of a mod that doesn't overly tweak the game. The reveal map feature is a bit lacking. It doesn't indicate the mining yields for each sector, even when checking the encyclopedia for it.

@mohibuk21 Esc > extension options

hi, what is the shortcut to enable to mod?

I also personally made a version of cheat menu for myself, specifically to remove edits to official files, like the one that extends Managers to 6 jumps instead of the default 5. Glad to see a new version that does not touch too many things.

really looking forward to this being completed. This game is wonderful, but as a OTR truck driver, time is the one irl resources that is most prcious to me, so being able to cheat without truly breaking the game would be a godsend

nice for trying stuff and so, does this get all the stuff that is not in yet ? Or is it abonded. I hope
the not yet implemented stuff get in

@Danger Close
most likely because SCA rep is locked until a specific terraforming mission has been completed.

I keep setting my SCA faction to -25 or -24, and it resets immediately.
If I leave the menu and go back in, it's reset to the original value.

Others have worked. Tho - I think all the faction changes I've made so far are in the positive direction; setting faction higher than it currently is.

"Required item" = yes you need to have that also.

can i just subscribe to this mod alone and will it work? or do i still have to download the SirNukes mod for dependency?

@ShadowDragonOfTheNorth, Sorry, at this stage god mode does not persist over game restarts. Every time you close the game, you need to re-enable to the god mode.
Been very busy these past few months so I've not been able to rectify this issue.

God mode doesn't work, just lost 2 ships because of it failing. First one was the one i was flying and 2nd was the ship that came to pick me up(both from my faction, with God mode enabled).

Is it also possible to copy a selected ship?

Looks like an ambitious project (I wrote a cheat menu mod for X: Rebirth but haven't found time to return to it, despite kept telling myself to over the years).

Let me know if you need help with this. :)

Any general idea on when to expect the next update to this?

Interesting to see an alternative. Sadly the ones i need the most are granular control of god mode and ability to delete/kill selected ship or station. Fill station storages would be good to. Keep up the good work.

Hello! Would you be willing to add a 'delete station' cheat?

@Riddim I was having the same issue where I could not see the Extention Options button on the Escape Menu, I had to disable the Protected UI View in Settings > Extensions for this to show up

@Riddim If you see the screen with Mods that show if mods are 'On', you're looking at the wrong place. Load the save that you want to play, hit Esc on keyboard. You will see Options Menu. Just above the Settings options is something called Extension Options. Click on it, find Starn's Better Cheat Menu and double click on it.

Esc -> Extension Options -> Starn's Better Cheat Menu

Hi. I agree with @Mr_Cossacks.
If it is possible to change the relationships between AI factions,
it will be the most awesome.. I always like to create my own scenario.
And this mod would be a huge help.

Thanks for this mod.

@mr_Cossack Thanks for trying to help. But here is the issue.

I am currently in game and on Esc Pause. I see all the normal options. Including Extensions.

The Better cheat is already "ON" and active.

My Question is, how do I use the cheat menu ingame.

Thanks for trying to help but your answer did not help me. I opened the Extension ingame it did not provide me any options to open the cheat menu.

The cheat menu Helps in some cases.
For me it is :
1) Add an item of some kind. So that he doesn't hunt for hours.
2) Create a ship or Station for NPCs.
3) Diplomacy.
4) Destruction of the Station, Ship, Fleet, Sector (complete cleansing from enemies, a separate option is clean sector. That is, it removes everything and everyone in the sector except the gate.) Or simply delete traffic - delete haaks or xenons separately. (in addition to the option to destroy all enemies in the sector)
5) Finish off upgrades, modules, crew, items.
6) Docking, Teleportation to the object, to the center of the sector, To the point.
7) Copy the Station,Ship,Complex.
8) Repair and restoration of shields.
9) God mode, ships, stations, Station Complex. The Player's property.
10) Increase the experience of the crew, landing.
11) Create a standard fleet. Depending on race and faction. (I think it's better to borrow data from the game itself. How and which race and faction creates its fleet.)

@Riddim press esc and click extension options. You can open it from there.

Hello Starns, thanks for the mod, I am still having trouble using it.

I wonder if you or anyone could help. So I have activated, how do i Open the cheat menu ingame?

Upon till now I have not figured it out as of yet. Sorry if this is reacquiring or noob question.

I'm curious what your priority is on which features will be added first. If possible, I'd love to know when to expect the "Spawn Ships" and "Select Crew Level" options.

how do i open the menu?

I assume the yet to be implemented feature of fill station storages means build storage as well as station storage? Are there plans to include property destruction or deletion? I find myself using the delete function for stations and even ships when I want to delete a useless to me in that save faction like Vigor/Riptide etc.

@Tekrom, There's a minor bug with the dependency that stops you from right-clicking on ships where the pilot has personal inventory items. This mainly shows up when attempting to assign ships to a ship that you're the pilot of, and any ships that you set to pickup drops in an area.
This issue has apparently been fixed as part of the kuertee UI extensions mod on nexus (Which is not required for this menu).
This menu works perfectly fine without the kuertee mod.

@Mr_Cossack, I'll look into adding that functionality! For now, a less cheaty method to modify AI to AI relations is DeadAir's Scripts mod.

Can you add ability to modify relation between a.i factions?

I noticed that this mod was updated today, but its dependent, "SirNukes Mod Support APIs" has a bunch of people in the comments saying the latest update broke it. So doesn't that mean this mod wouldn't work either for now, despite this mod being updated today?

Ah, thanks for the clarification. I must have not progressed far enough to see issues like that or have not noticed it before. I did just run into one such issue, the Barbarossa was available in the Terran shipyard. Thanks for the effort!

@Killerduff, It's a feature I can look into, but I can't make any promises about hotkey integration at the moment.

Would there be a way to make the teleport function a hotkey so I don't have to go in and out of the extensions menu everytime to use it?

@Alastria, Common consensus between mod devs is that iseeu's cheat menu touches some things that don't make sense and break many things in the background. One such broken thing is the availability of the research honshu being available to all factions. My goal is to get the majority of cheat features implimented in a way that won't effect anything outside of it's intended effect.

Excellent! I use cheats to expedite certain aspects of the game (mainly resource delivery and crew skill). I eagerly await future functions.

good one much more clean then the original cheat menu

Let's gooooo

This is so nice and so needed! Cannot wait for the god options

What is the problem with iseeu0's cheat mod? Never ran into any issues, just curious.

Its find-able in the extension options tab in the pause menu

Since this will not be using the conversational radial menu for the cheats - How is this one activated?
