DESCRIPTIONS

INSTALLATION

Download CONSTRUCTS in No Man’s Sky

Place the.PAK file in the PCBANKS/MODS folder. If you don’t have that folder, make one. Delete any text file with the name “DISABLEMODS.TXT” that is located in your PCBANKS folder. Before you run, be sure to clear your SHADERCACHE!
Because this mod might alter the distribution of buildings on an existing planet, certain current missions may become invalid, forcing you to restart them.

ConstructsAR.Core – contains all the core assets for Constructs. Does not use any existing
ConstructsAR.Spawner – this spawns Constructs on planets.+ Uses METADATA\SIMULATION\ENVIRONMENT\PLANETBUILDINGTABLE.MBIN

This mod now substitutes specific POI kinds in the game – beacons in the wild and trade terminals in the wild – since the game seems to no longer recognize building density settings. You may be confident that these things are not associated with any recognized important activities.
