NexusCheats

A cheat panel mod for Starsector built on the NexusUI framework. Add credits, resources, weapons, ships, XP, and story points via a convenient in-game overlay.

Features

• Credits — Add credits with preset amounts (1K, 10K, 100K, 1M) or custom values
• Resources — Add supplies, fuel, crew, marines, heavy machinery, metals, transplutonics, organics, volatiles, food, drugs, organs, hand weapons, and luxury goods
• Weapons — Add any weapon by ID with configurable quantity
• Ships — Add any ship variant by ID to your fleet (spawns at max CR)

All commands are executed thread-safely through the NexusUI command queue system, ensuring game state is modified on the correct thread.
