    Oh I didn’t know that. Explains why most of the current mods do little more than improve the dated graphics. I’ll give the game a second chance once it gets mods like this:

    1. An off-road vehicle mod
    2. A spaceship overhaul mod that eliminates the cutscenes. Actually be able to take off and land the ship yourself, and replace fast travel with a proper warp drive. Owning and maintaining a ship should be more fun overall. There should be a pre-flight checklist and more parts to replace/upgrade/maintain, as a start.
    3. A mod that adds more cities and towns to all these barren planets.
    4. A story overhaul mod. Every single quest and line of dialog should be replaced with something that is actually interesting to play. This will obviously take many years – at least 5 – if not a decade or more. That’s the main issue with this game. The story is the most boring thing to ever come out of a Bethesda product.

      Yeah I think what you’re looking for is just a different game. The copy and paste buildings are a huge issue that definitely deserves a fix, but the space stuff you want is kind of a different genre.
