After 70 hours, I cheated myself rich (feddit.de)

Just so I can build spaceships.

It's just sooooo addictive and fun. But as long as there is no Sandbox mode, or a mode to save spaceship designs, I just can't do it without using piles of money.

It's not that I'm short of money (had like 700k when I started building like crazy), but wasting all that money just for a few ships I like, fly once or twice for fun, and then completely scrap and rebuild into new ones is just not feasible.

So, while I'm sad that I disabled achievements (and am too lazy to use ScriptExtender + AchievementUnlocker), I can now properly play "Space Lego".

That's all and thank you for coming to my TED talk.

I figured I already lost achievements using no clip to get unstuck from some Bethesda bullshit, so I have no problem adding a bunch of digipicks when I run out because I haven't yet grown accustomed to them being used up every time. The previous lockpicking systems only consumed your picks if they broke.

But, uh... if you want real Space Lego: Buy Space Engineers. ;)

I have so many digipicks, and I unlock everything I see. I found the first time I ran out I was using the "redo" option while picking, that wastes a pick. Was a lot more careful after that and started planning my uses before locking them into grooves.
