Economy Starter Ships

Start your game with a flying ship instead of a rover.

This mod adds starter ships designed to take advantage of the economy 2 update. They are optimized for reaching stations early, running search contracts, and collecting unknown signals.

(https://mod.io/g/spaceengineers/m/economy-starter-ships)

Survival Starter Ships
• Atmospheric version for planets (uses hydrogen for power, purchasable from stations)
• Hydrogen starter ship for the Moon (default for Luna, see new entries for Europa and Titan)

Scout Ships
• Available for every vanilla planet/moon
• Tuned for each environment
• Moons use hydrogen
• Breathable planets use open cockpits (Pertam, Triton, Earthlike)
• No survival kits (lightweight exploration ships)

These ships enable a true pilot start:
• Fly immediately and choose your start location
• Run search contracts early to earn credits
• Scout terrain, find ores, and explore freely
