Upgrade Station v1.8i

Description
Mod ID: 821530042

Allows you to upgrade the quality of weapons, armor, tools, and saddles from primitive all the way to ascendant. Even works with items from other mods! Can also salvage items for resources.

This mod doesn't change any core files and is stackable with other mods (see below).

... Yes, it works with TEK armor!

Attention!

Rocket Launchers & Tek Rifles

Vanilla rocket launchers and TEK rifles can't be upgraded. However, I have created a small companion mod that allows you to replace your vanilla rocket launcher with an upgradeable one.

Feel free to sub to the "Classic Rocket Launchers" mod if you'd like to be able to upgrade your rocket launchers! http://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=884380337

We may do the same for Tek rifles in the future.

Compatibility

Weapons, armor, tools, and saddles from other mods can be upgraded and/or salvaged as long as the mod author has used the appropriate item as a starting point for their items (Hatchet for "Super Hatchet", Boots for "Tek Boots", etc).

While I can try my best to ensure items from other mods can be upgraded and salvaged I can't control what other mod authors do in their mods. When in doubt, put this mod last in the load order. :)

The Upgrade Station can upgrade all items from any mod as long as the item has an upgrade path. Items that don't have an upgrade path (C4, Tripwire, Wooden Spear, etc) cannot be upgraded because they don't have a quality index. Some items, like the Builder's Helmet, will identify as being valid to upgrade but won't actually upgrade in a meaningful way.

Version

Version 1.8i has been released! This update should fix the crashes that result from multiple players attempting to upgrade/salvage/blueprint/augment the same item. For more information, please see the Version 1.8i Release Notes.

Highly Configurable

If you're finding upgrade requirements to be too low for your liking please note that the upgrade formula is completely configurable via INI settings. Please read this discussion for more info as well as a link to the formula to give you an idea how it works: http://steamproxy.net/workshop/filedetails/discussion/821530042/152392786911200641/

How are upgrades calculated? I am wondering if it is cheaper to upgrade things like saddles to ascendant or find/make a blueprint.

how do i salvage

So we have the mod in the mod list, but all the engrams are not showing.

please give me steam glasses, I'm saving up for a black profile from dying light 2

Yes: more hitpoints and more inventory slots, so you can upgrade higher tiers
Henbog 21 Apr @ 12:17pm 
Do the tables made from rarer materials actually provide any benefit or is just visual?
van Grunz 15 Apr @ 9:35pm 
Nope, just like written: for the abilitity to upgrade modded stuff this mod has to be later in load order. Also you cannot upgrade stuff that doesn't have quality (primitive/ramshakle...ascendant).
Tenebris 15 Apr @ 11:27am 
How would I got about adding another mod item (in this case Valyrian Reins from Kraken's Better Dinos) to be able to be upgraded? Is there anything I can manually put in my gameusersetting.ini with it's blueprint path that would allow them to be upgraded/augmented?
van Grunz 14 Apr @ 1:13pm 
As far as I know this mod doesn't cause any issues. If you have mods that add weapons or other stuff, make sure these are loaded before this mod so it can recognize it. It works well with CyberTek mod, I've upgraded all the stuff successfully.
Isafreyr 14 Apr @ 12:11pm 
Will this cause any problems on newer maps such like Genesis Part 2? Will it cause any crashes or is it safe to use. I understand if it won't recognize any new items that were added later than it was updated but If we could still take advantage of its utilities until at least Genesis without causing any crashes then that would be great.
