These ones Rookie numbers no doubt, but even this is the result of me trying to keep the bloat down.
Nexerelin itself changes SS into a different game. Being an opportunist has never been more profitable, and all the different ships and guns create variable playstyles. Keeps you on your toes.
Shoutout to Arma Armatura with its mechs that operate somewhere in-between frigates and fighters, and the delightful crew promotions.

I really like Starsector, but just like Rimworld there’s so many mods and I don’t even know where to begin. Also not a big fan of the ship controls (aiming and stuff).

Just put it on auto and get the freecam "mod" :]
Seriously, just letting the AI control my flagship worked really well for me most of the time. I only feel like I make a major impact as a pilot if I'm using some overpriced frigate to snipe shit and run away.

I like the concept of controlling a ship though, sort of like outer space Mount and Blade lol. I will for sure be looking into some mods because I don’t feel like doing vanilla again.

I like control of ship but i don't like that it is steered via mouse and km with no way to attach camera to your ship so camera rotates with ship. That's like trying to masturbate with your foot.
