How do I run the game without updating?
Steam is saying I need to update NMS. I don't want to because I have a sh't tonne of mods which all now need updating but I can't do that until the new compiler is released. I just wanted to nip into the game after a break since Saturday when the UK went into meltdown and was too hot to run my PC.

I think this particular update is going to completely break a ton of mods, since they updated even how asteroids work.

I didn't think that would work. And I was right.

Sure, the game runs in offline mode but now my electrical wiring doesn't work. I can no longer connect generators to a base further away (under 1,000u, which has always been possible).

Guess I'm going to have to play Stray instead.

All the mods I use are self authored, meaning all I need is for the compiler to be updated so I can get to work updating my mods. They're all what I call quality-of-life-mods. Small but absolutely indispensable and I couldn't play the game without them. More so for the fact even attempting to load my save sans mods will crash it.

Jesus. That's gonna take monkeyman192 a long time to update the compiler.

Me I play with Mods, I HATE slow Movement the jet pack SUCKS, I HATE little Suit Tech Slots, I HATE Little Substances Stack size, I Hate The Screen Shake, I Hate the Asteroid Fields, I Hate Hazard Protection allways have ti refill it over and over, So i use Mods to fix this! After every New Update it all STOPS Working so i will not play till they get fixed, Oh and i spend about 3% of my time in my FREIGHTER So how the Hell Needs this Update? Oh and i spend about 60% of my time in my Ship so how about Updateing That?

I wish they'd just fix sh't that's broken instead of adding more new content nobody wants.

My electrical wiring is completely broken while in offline mode. I can connect an electromagnetic generator to a light about four prefab rooms distance away. Anything beyond that the wire turns red and I can't get power out there.

I'm done.

It was v3.93 so what number is the new Endurance update? Even HG's own website still says Leviathan 3.93 is the latest update (as of 20/07/2022 16:20 GMT).

That's just how it is with modding. /shrug

, Oh and i spend about 3% of my time in my FREIGHTER So how the Hell Needs this Update?

Not every update is for YOU. (the crime & pirate update, and the "keep dying over & over" expedition, sure as hell weren't for >me<. But we're not the only people playing the game.)

Personally, I look forward to screwing with my freighter some more.

Hmm. I went ahead and downloaded the update and then unpacked the new game data. It would appear the current v3.91 compiler still works with Endurance. Modders should be updating their mods now.

Scratch that. Some of my mods work with the old compiler. The ones I use for removing camera shake and menu wobble don't. And I need these so I don't puke up while playing the game.
