The BEST MODS for Space Engineers (2024)

[@Zer0sLegion]

What are your favourite mods for Space Engineers? Let me know!

[@cast5439]

Love aryxes weapon enterprise - I think I got the name right adds a bunch of half balanced weapon blocks. Looks like an update and there's less weapons now idk I may just not have dependencies or something.

[@righty5890]

The track framework/API was awesome for all the tank making community, so i think it will be my favorite mod for a while!

[@greypatch8855]

What would be a fun scenario is your planet about to collide with another. You must escape. Sure we could just have an arbitrary timer, but to have the world's collide in a massive destructive event would be AMAZING!

[@Zer0sLegion]

@@greypatch8855 Unfortunately, planets can't move in SE, you wouldn't be able to do it.

[@shirleybagwell7422]

Can you also do console mods

[@jemoyy]

There is also a cool mod for hardcore players called "Realistic Thrusters", with this mod thrusters generate thrust not at the center of mass like in vanilla, but at the position of the thruster, so you would have to balance your aircraft and thrusters before you would be able to fly. I always combine this mod with an aerodynamic physics mod to make it feel more realistic to fly an aircraft :-)

[@Zer0sLegion]

I've never been a fan of it but now that you mention using it with aerodynamic physics, I think I wanna give it another shot.

[@ericwemmer402]

@@Zer0sLegion Without a way to find the center of mass vs the center of thrust/lift these mods can but quite challenging. I have used a mod before to visualize these but I can't recall the name and it isn't in my list of subscribed mods anymore.

@@Zer0sLegion This hud is compatible with a different shield mod. The mod uses jump drives as shields so the rings around the ship are intended to show shield hp not ship hp. You can check which shield mod is compatible with it in its description.

My favourite mod is Tether Mod, that allow you to connect 2 grids with a rope-like tether (from another mod, Harpoon) and allow for power transfer. You can use it to create cool power lines between bases or charge your rovers more easily. Unfortunately it never worked in multiplayer.

[@Zer0sLegion]

I like it, I used it for a bit but the no multiplayer thing was a dealbreaker.

[@Spoon80085]

The Space Engineers modding community is such a sleeper group. Like some of these mods are genuinely *so good.* As someone with (very limited) programming knowledge, it blows my mind that someone could *mod in*, even basic aerodynamics, to SE *as a hobby.* (There's also hydrodynamics too lmao) There's been goated mods for *A LONG TIME* too, like since 2015 iirc. (I cannot believe I've been playing this game that long and still suck at building)

[@tackytrooper]

I never knew the water mod could change texture. Seems like a great way to do Iron Lung-themed playthroughs.

[@Zer0sLegion]

There's lava and all sorts, it's pretty cool.

[@tackytrooper]

@@Zer0sLegion A combination I have recently discovered is the FLIR mod combined with the Nebulous Radar mod. NR remedies the biggest problem with FLIR, which is seeing through voxels. As a unified tank night fighting system, the flir can spot and identify targets, and the NR can tell whether or not a firing solution is possible.

I'm glad you enjoyed the easy-to-pronounce™ name from my mod I'd also love to see a tank battle like the one you did when testing out the aerodynamic mod, that'd be awesome!

[@Zer0sLegion]

I've been meaning to do one for years but I never have the time. I might be able to do it over the next few weeks but we'll see.

[@Themanmatt1]

Button Pad is one of my absolute favorites. I typically build small grids but large sized, and buttons become very important for function and asthetics.. using this cuts down the amount of button space needed and its AMAZING! Shout out to the creator for adding controller buttons for me when I asked just after the mod released! Only when "playing", I still use keyboard and mouse for building of course, but it's so easy to use, looks very sleek, and I love being able to see what the button will do without needing extra screens, it's a godsend! I also love using the water mod, I find building large boats that work properly and can be tossed about without any thrusters etc to stabilize, means you better build it correctly so it doesn't tip over in rough seas and storms. Very tricky but when you have a small grid ship roughly the size of a battleship or large yacht float with numerous levels, smaller craft aboard etc and always rights itself.. very satisfying. Maybe I will post some of my builds some time if there is any interest? It is hard to find any good boats for the current water mod, most seem to be from when it used tanks for floatation vs pressurizing interior.

[@Zer0sLegion]

The buttons are great, it's one of the few mods I would like to be added to the base game.

[@minersubmarine5000]

Eli’s holo hud would be awesome as a variant for the projector table

[@Zer0sLegion]

Yeah, that would be cool. The Radar especially.

[@TubeTAG]

I'm impressed at your restraint. You showed shealth tech, shields, hyper drives... But not a single energy weapon mod!

[@keegans5695]

I believe there is a reason for that. There aren't a lot of up to date energy weapon mods that don't use weapon core at the moment, and weapon core is rapidly falling out of (or has already fallen out of) favor with the SE community, as it has proven to be troublesome to work with for numerous reasons.

[@Zer0sLegion]

I've never been a fan of weapon mods, I'm more interested in new mechanics that things that just make a slightly bigger boom.

[@TrueWhiteKnight]

i have been actively using all of these mods for a while now except the FSD Supercruise and the Overclocking Control System which until a few moments ago i had no idea existed, but now they are part of my permanent collection. thanks Zer0

[@Zer0sLegion]

FSD Supercruise is one of my favourite mods, I'm happy you found out about it.

[@TrueWhiteKnight]

@@Zer0sLegion i am now in the same camp as you after using it for a bit; jumpdrives suck.

[@pavelsvacha]

Deflector shields is probably my favorite mod as it makes Energy shields more convenient and i hate repairing ships.

[@Zer0sLegion]

Yeah, it's definitely my preferred shield mod of choice, even if I don't use shields very often.

[@Zer0sLegion]

@@robertellis6853 Most mods are fine after an update

[@wldchrstphr1]

Deflector Shields is my favorite shield mod. While the Energy Shields mod is more popular, it is less balanced, and becomes an overpowered ramming weapon, or makes ships completely untouchable. With the recent updates, Deflector Shields is far better, and works well with weaponcore mods. The Consolidated Armament mods are the best weapon mods, and they also have a non-weaponcore version of their guns.

[@Zer0sLegion]

Non-weaponcore version you say😈 Sign me up!

[@MrBlackdragon1230]

@@Zer0sLegion Yeah they just dropped the Non-WC version out a short time ago. I havent tested it yet but it does look awesome.

[@hellokatyfac3]

@@Zer0sLegion Is there a problem with weaponcore? I've been using it for a while and while there's a few issues with other mods that rely on vanilla weapons (like "modifies X vanilla weapon to do Y") I haven't noticed issues with it.

[@keegans5695]

​@@Zer0sLegionI'd also suggest taking a look at the Aegis System mod, especially considering your disdain for the jump drive. It gives them another purpose by turning them into a shield system. Doesn't have the nice effects deflector shields has but also doesn't require new blocks, and is compatible with the Holo hud mod you showed.

[@ShaperOfThings]

​@hellokatyfac3 I've run into a few problems with it, and it's annoying enough that i avoid servers using weaponcore. Main issue i had: it's easy to accidentally adjust a setting in a way that the guns don't fire when there's a target, forcing you to troubleshoot your fire control systems in a panic while being attacked. That's happened repeatedly. Other issues ive found were that server admins tend to chuck all the weaponcore mods into play, creating a vast network of overpowered guns all using wildly different ammo types and resources which now must be managed & tracked. The additional "paperwork" isnt worth the time, considering that the gameplay is still basically the same: the guns fire automatically, so how does it really affect your game? The novelty wears off eventually, and they're just cumbersome.

[@zat-1-fury]

13:45 it is actually inspired by elite dangerous but the fact it was translated into space engineers so easily is too cool 😅

[@DavidUtau]

Eli dangs... Don't you say...

[@Skellitor301_VA]

A couple classic mods I enjoy and am happy still works are the scaffolding mod and the mining chutes mod. The scaffolding mod is exactly what you'd think, just adds a bunch of blocks used for scaffolding that look really good, and work really well. The mining chutes mod lets you build trenches that ores can roll through. It's an interesting mod that adds an option for ore collection for things like hand drill mining a hill side or if you turn off auto collection for your drills and you need to let the stones collect. It also includes a roll cage you can get into and ride the chutes

[@mrmirchiTheCodGuy]

Thanks for that, the mining chutes mod sounds really useful

The holo hud mod is super cool especially the enemy ship popping up because I use a War Control Room that is separate from the flight Bridge in my corvette and being able to use it and size up enemies before hand is cool, also super cool because I railgunned a ship and split it and it showed it get split in half on the hud

[@jamesscalzo3033]

Loved the video @Zer0'sLegion! Can't wait for the next video man! The Main 5 Mods from this list that I'd go for are the Water Mod, since I've seen Captain Jack play around with it after showcasing it, The Holo HUD since that might give you a "Battlefield 2042" like Experience while in Combat, The Recolorable Thrusters which will allow players to Match their Thrusters with the Ships in their Factions Fleet, The Tank Tracks over Wheels which can basically allow you to Build Tanks (Use with the Holo HUD for the "Battlefield 2042" like Experience while in Combat that I mentioned earlier) and the Aerodynamics Flight Mod which allows you to Build Aircraft a bit more Cautiously so to speak. Could you take a look at the WeaponCore Mod as well as the Shield mod that Captain Jack uses for his Ships in Redwood Industries? I'm really curious as to what you think about them. Also, I have a Challenge for the Community! Using Current and Past Month of Mods, You and your Viewers will have 120 Days to Establish a Faction (or Multiple is you'd like) complete with Bases, Vehicles and Stations (if you manage to make it into Space) as well as an Economy. If the Factions are Small (Let's admit it, They probably will be with each Lobby being limited to 64 Players), they can still make use of the Event Controller and AI Blocks (Flight, Recorder, Basic, Defensive and Offensive) in Combination so as to have better control over their Builds and/or Fleets. In the event that there are Multiple Factions, Then they will fight until there is a Single Powerful Faction standing on the World and that Faction will then have to Fight an Incoming Planetary Invasion. This will either be the Grand Army of the Republic (the Clone Army of course), The Confederacy of Independent Systems (The CIS Droid Army) or @CaptainJack and his own Redwood Industries (RWI) forces. The Server will start off by producing Builds of Vehicles, Ships and Aircraft from the 1960's to the 1980's and Progress it's way through various Player Built Designs that fit into the Historical Basis of the Faction or Various Factions all the way to Building an Interstellar Military. The Historical Builds are to use Small Grid Blocks and Wheels no larger than 2 by 2. They are also to be as close to 1:1 Scale as possible as well as Carry their Assortment of Ordinance as well as Player Built Weapons (PBW's) later on. The Planetary Invasion will be one of the Following 3 Fleets: • The Grand Army of the Republic (Clone Army) with up to 3 Arquitens-class Light Cruisers, 6 Pelta-class Frigates or Corellian CR 90 Corvettes and a Venator-class Attack Cruiser with V-wing Starfighters, Y-wing Starfighters, ARC-170 Starfighters and Z-95 Headhunters along with Appropriate LAAT's and AT-TE's to Clear the Way and Secure a Landing Zone for up to 3 Acclamator-class Assault Ships carrying Troops and Various Walkers, Hovertanks and Speeders. • The Confederacy of Independent Systems (Droid Army) with Up to 4 Munificent-class Star Frigates, 2 Recusant-class ships, 1 Subjugator-class Battleship and a Providence-class Battleship/Carrier Hybrid all carrying the Infamous Vulture Droid Fighters and Hyena Droid Bombers along with Droid Tri-Fighters and HMP Droid Gunships from the Providence-class ship. The Recusant and Munificent Ships will also be Carrying Appropriate Amounts of N-9979 Landing Craft with AAT's, MTT's and Various other Equipment for the Droid Army. • Redwood Industries (RWI) with the Daedalus-class Starfighter Carrier RWI Zheng He with it's 8 F-203 Starfighters, 2 Defender-class Mk. II Frigates with 4 Parasite F-203 Starfighters each and 3 Phoenix-class Frigates leading the way for an Invasion Fleet that might include the Lead ship of the New Odyssey-class Destroyers as part of the Fleets escort and Provide Overwatch for the Ground Forces as they land, all under the Overall command of Admiral Jack Roberts (aka @CaptainJack). Let me know what you think about all of this and I'll catch you in your next video man!

I wonder if you'll ever cover any Weaponcore mods. Sure, it's pretty advanced, but there's a TON of other mods that go with weaponcore. One of those was the stealth drive mod you covered. It was originally meant only for weaponcore, but the author eventually got it to work with vanilla weapons. They also work with defense shields, the other OTHER shield mod out there made specifically for weaponcore.

[@Zer0sLegion]

Yeah, without any more comment, there's a reason I covered a different shield mod that doesn't require weaponcore.

[@MrBlackdragon1230]

So you know Zer0 doesn't touch Weapon Core or weapon mods in general. Im kinda surprised he even covered shields at all tbh. If you want to see that stuff there are other channels that do that. Only reason im speaking up on this is I've seen him have to answer this question million times.

@@Zer0sLegion cursed but completely real! It was a tank that was made to be airdropped, wich meant it had to be light, whilst also having a swift steering system, so by just steering the front wheels and back wheels like some other armored cars (the french panhardt for example) and bending the tracks in the direction you want to go, they achieved quite smooth steering without an elaborate (and heavy) clutch and brake system.

[@XLentGamingNetwork]

The stealth drive mod unfortunately has several issues. The first biggest issue is that having 2 stealth drives on a small ship and then selecting the secondary drive in the ship's control panel will cause a game crash. Unsure if this bug is known, but I manage to produce this with a 100% success rate. The second issue is that it doesn't actually mask shadows of ships on planets or remove the target lead indicator, still allowing other people to see an approximation of where your ship is.

[@Zer0sLegion]

I feel like the shadow thing is fine, that how it should work.

[@XLentGamingNetwork]

@@Zer0sLegion In space it's not much of an issue but on planets, it's not even worth using the drive against other players if they can just track your shadow. Also the target lead indicator not being disabled by the cloaking (stated in the mod description) also makes it impractical against other players. I like the mod, it's great for PvE but for PvP it needs work.

Favorite mod Amrored thrusters, special the diogonal ones, but sadly not updates mod

[@matthewcutting9323]

we need this in the next update for vanilla wrefare with extra tank cannons :)

[@Zer0sLegion]

I dunno if we need vanilla tank cannons but vanilla tank treads, yes please!

[@cast5439]

YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO A COMMAND AND CONCQER REFRANCE - lmao love to see that. ( RA3 )

[@Zer0sLegion]

Finally! Someone got it!

[@cast5439]

@@Zer0sLegion I was so happy its rare to find any C&C references out there.

[@joe_the_pro35]

I think Eli dang is meant to be very similar to elite dangerous because they sound the same and the ui is literally just from elite dangerous

[@Zer0sLegion]

Doesn't make it not super cool!

[@irawdom.]

I have a small question as the captain of this humble ship, how do I put a small block together with a large one? help :,c

[@Zer0sLegion]

You mean like small grid and large grid? You can place small grid hinges or rotor parts onto large grid hinge and rotor bases. And vice versa.

[@vigasilva]

Wait gyroacopes dont rotate in the base game? I realy need some vanilla experience

[@Zer0sLegion]

Lol, I get that with a lot of games.

[@kerbalairforce8802]

How about "10 Essential Scripts" 3D Planetary Map is one I always use.

[@Zer0sLegion]

Maybe one day, people aren't as interested in scripts as they are mods.

[@festro1000]

loved Cython's energy shields back then that and energy based weapons were practically non existent, and while I have used deflector shields I found the cumbersome size to be virtually unusable especially when it comes to small ships.

[@Zer0sLegion]

I guess the block size is a balancing thing.

[@MrVoidbringer2002]

we need a mod pack im to lazy to go threw the list over and over but now i got to load space Legos again...

[@Zer0sLegion]

I will build one at some point

[@TVT.v1entetain]

I like watching the likes slowly tick up as i watch

[@Zer0sLegion]

I didn't know they updated live.

Finally..... Tie Phantom you ar mine

[@ericwemmer402]

Will you be suggesting any skyboxes on one of the lists you are putting together? I found one almost 8 years ago and haven't changed it...

[@Zer0sLegion]

I don't think I've ever used a skybox mod, I'll have to have a look.

[@ericwemmer402]

@@Zer0sLegion The one I currently use is "Realistic Skybox" (685761329). This one is much darker but still high resolution so it looks nice. I haven't really looked for another one since I haven't had any errors with this one.

[@MrBlackdragon1230]

So where to begin........ Almost every mod you listed I use in about every world. My favorites from the ones you showed today are FSD and Eli Dang Holo and the tank tracks. I tried the Aww Scrap mod as I like the salvage lifestyle but it ended up being more tedious for me(got ADHD brain so shorter attention span) and didn't stick with it. I didn't know about the Console Spawn Planets mod which is very strange since I have an unhealthy obsession(every world has HUNDREDS of mods in them) with SE mods and thought I knew every mod in the game, but I didn't know about that one. So I will list off a few things I also use for you to see if you would want to feature. First thing is I use the Plugin System and It offers so much good stuff, especially the GPS plugin to allow distances and folders in the GPS tab. I also use your mods as well especially the ones to boost thrusters and production systems. For sure check out Prospector 2 by BD Carrillo. Right now im playing in a world that makes SE have missions and have an end goal. You should check it out. It is NPC Provider - Alien invasion scenario by BookBurner. When I can think of more later I list them.

[@Zer0sLegion]

I'll check out the scenario, looks cool.

[@MrBlackdragon1230]

@@Zer0sLegion I just remembered another scenario mod I have subbed to but haven't tried yet. Its called SEDivers NPC Framework and SEDivers Example Mod by Flatulent_Moth. It Allows npc's to manage and control dynamic territory including stations, but unlike BookBurners Alien Invasion scenario this one is also compatible with MES npc mods as well.

[@DovaDude]

How about a video dedicated to the best weapon mods? Inclusion of Assault Weapons Pack is mandatory.

[@Zer0sLegion]

Maybe, I'm not a big fan of weapon mods.
