Current Version: v0.1m

This mod allows players to upgrade the quality of weapons, armor, and saddles from primitive all the way to ascendant. Players can also salvage weapons, armor, saddles, and structures for resources. This mod doesn't change any core files and is stackable with other mods.

It works with Tek items and even with items from other mods!

This mod is very much a work in progress. Please be patient while we port everything over from ASE.

Update 11/13/23: Please view the Wiki for more information. https://linode.ghazlawl.com/upgrade-station-asa/

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 we can try our best to ensure items from other mods can be upgraded and salvaged we can’t control what other mod authors do in their mods.

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) can’t be upgraded because they don’t have a quality index.

Known Issues

INI settings will be posted from ASE as functionality is ported from the ASE version.
Randomized mechanics (increased salvage, expert upgrades, fortunes, etc) will be ported from the ASE version as soon as possible.
Additional functionality originally planned for v2 is slowly being integrated.
Non-dedicated server host can't upgrade, salvage, augment, or blueprint but other players can. This is an ASA bug that we're still looking into.

Please see our wiki page for additional information.
