============================================

============================================
You came into possession an ancient artifact, and earned the favor of a deity from before space and time...

USEFUL INFO:

• [NEW] English User Manual[drive.google.com] now available!
  
• Modular installation package available on Nexus Mods[www.nexusmods.com].
  
• Conquest & War in Rebirth (CWIR) users please download the compatibility patch from Nexus (resolves a conflict in Upkeep mission patches).

======================
The 'Goddess' Advantage
======================

Simoom's Lantern is the most expansive, feature-rich, and meticulously-coded cheat menu for X Rebirth. Not to be confused with alexalsp's CHEAT MENU, this mod was written from the ground-up with a very different vision in mind, combining powerful utilities with a depth of immersion, user-friendliness, and save game safety (sticking only to vanilla scripts and assets).

Do not mistake Simoom's Lantern for a mere cheat - this mod comes with a set of powerful tools to address several Egosoft oversights as well as common player complaints, making this a MUST HAVE companion for your adventures in X Rebirth! (even if you don't plan to actually cheat much...)

Feature Highlights
================

Below is but a small glimpse of what you can do with Simoom's Lantern! Please refer to the User Manual[drive.google.com] for the full list of features & helpful tips!

• Any Ship, Any Station - If it's in the game files, you can have it!
  
  
  
• Deployable Weapon Platforms and Landmark Stations - Build impenetrable fortresses with FULLY FUNCTIONAL weapon platforms! Decorate your space with habitations, highway stations, and pirate dens!
  
  
  
• More NPC Shipyards - Build shipyards and hand them over to the NPC to create more economy sink! Complete with correct manager aiscript assignment, so they will build capital ships on the clock!
  
  
  
• Secure the Galaxy... with Faction Patrols - Summon faction patrols to secure valuable sectors. Never deal with annoying combat messages again!
  
  
  
• Civil War Behavior - Make the Teladi Union deal with those pesky pirates! Place HoA and PMC at peace! Toggleable.
  
  
  
• Canteran Plot Stations - Replace the missing plot stations in your game, or benefit from them in a non-campaign start!
  
  
  
• Disable Hostile NPC Stations - Permanently disable NPC stations, with the option to easily restore them!
  
  
  
• Reveal the Galaxy - Instantly open the entire map, with fully-unlocked station info galaxy-wide!
  

Do NOT attempt to fully remove NPC stations (ones that are already there when the game starts) by claiming it, then issuing "Self-Destruct". These stations are part of the map, and the game will simply respawn them during the next load. Please see the mod development topic[forum.egosoft.com] for details.

====================
Known Incompatibilities
====================

The Steam version of this mod is the Complete Package, and may have compatibility issues with some mods. If you must use a conflicting mod, please use the Modular Installation Package[www.nexusmods.com] from Nexus Mods instead (this allows you to remove any XML patch you don't want):

• CHEAT MENU - This mod contains a large number of XML patches that will conflict with my files. Additionally there are a lot of overlapping features, so choose one or the other (my mod is recommended... see technical discussion[forum.egosoft.com] for details).
  
• Xenon Hunt 3 - Contains conflicting patch files, allowing for similar functionality (though my patches do not add drone & cargo bay to Xenon ships, since rebalancing game asset is not the purpose of this mod). If you prefer Xenon Hunt's implementation, use the modular installation package from Nexus.
  
• Hull 3x Skunk - Contains conflicting patch file, allowing for Skunk hull repair by the on board Engineer (my mod is recommended... see this post[forum.egosoft.com] for details).
  
• RS Booster[www.nexusmods.com] (or any player booster mod) - Contains patch file for overtuning player booster.
  
• Ultimate Fleet Overhaul (UFO) - DO NOT use this mod! It is very outdated and breaks vanilla capship jump scripts (among other things). Subsequently affects my mod's capital ship summon feature since it relies on vanilla jump command.
