Starbound Mod: Starpounds Big Fatties

I’m not sure but i downloaded the mod, but for some reason it doesn’t show any of the characters getting bigger. It has the effcts of them slowing and not jumping as high, but it doesn’t show their actual weight. Any tips to fix it?

If you are just using the non green badges, those don’t include weight gain and won’t automatically equip the armors. You’re meant to fit it with appropriate clothing to your liking. The green badge includes the weight gain system and will automatically equip clothing as you get bigger.

Do you know where i can find those? The badges i mean. Also sorry if i’m asking to many questions about it

They’re available from the weightscale like almost everything else.

Thanks! Sorry i didn’t notice it earlier. Sorry for bothering you : P

So hey, been trying figure out how to make crew members bigger, is there a way?

Use tools that fatten up npcs like the milkshake guns or fatray.

Oh gotcha I was trying to see them use the feeding tubes, tyty!

they’ll use em on their own (eventually) if you pick one of the npc compatible feeding tubes

Fatray? OwO?

There’s more than 1 feeding tube? XD

Yeah but it seemed that even the npc compatible ones didn’t actually work

The npc compatible ones do work. It’s just that you’re at the mercy of whether or not the npcs want to actually use them. They just randomly interact with objects when they feel like it.

I did not know there was a fatray I know how to get milkshake guns but how do you get the fatray?

They automatically download when you subscribe.

You’re talking about a bunch of things from various addons people have made for my mod. They’re not from my mod. And if you’re trying to get onto that one server, you’re gonna have issues because your starbound version isn’t 1.4

Uh, firstly, you just admitted to pirating a game instead of buying it. Good job.
Secondly, you need Starbound on Steam (and up to date) to get mods off the Steam Workshop. This isn’t Minecraft (where an update breaks all mods). People don’t develop mods for this game that aren’t for the latest version.
Thirdly… Seriously, you pirated the game. I don’t have to explain how wrong that is, especially when Starbound’s only, like, $20 on Steam.

I’m not gonig to knock people for pirating games that lack a demo/trial of some sort (yes, even if they’re $20), but if you like it enough to ask for help to play on an obscure heavily-modded private fetish server, buy it lol.
There’s a lot of game for the price, even if the cutesy pixel style wears off after a while.

These green cubes are Starbound’s way to say “something I don’t recognize”. You probably either started the game (and loaded a character) after removing but before re-adding the mods, or you messed up the re-adding.

Either way, unless you haven’t started the game too often since this happened, you should be able to replace your player savefile with one of its backups. Starbound keeps the previous 3 saves around, for player characters and their ships.

There’s a way to progress the story quests without Esther, though it’s a little bit complicated. Nothing too bad you can’t understand however. I had presented a solution before, but to save you time looking into the thread I’ll just copypaste it here:

You can get Esther’s quests without Esther though, however in this case you need to be in debug mode, and use the commands /startquest and /completequest (in case there’s some quest you need to talk with Esther to complete, like the Getting Started quest for example).

To get the quest you want you need to input quest IDs, they can be found in the pages for the quests in the official Starbound wiki at the end of the pages. For /completequest you need the quest active (I think) and just input its ID in, but for /startquest you need to input the id surrounded by both single and double quotes.
For example, let’s say you want to start the “Getting Started” quest. Its ID is “gaterepair” if I recall correctly. To start it you need to type in (with debug mode active) /startquest ‘“gaterepair”’. The way I use it is with the single quote coming first before the ID and coming last after the ID. I don’t know if it works if you input it another way but you could always try. Also, if you input the wrong ID the game will crash, so be careful.

Make a Steam account. Download Steam. Log in. Find Starbound. Buy it with your credit card or paypal. Install it. Get mods. Done.
