Freighter/Frigate Mission Mod?

[STATIK]

Anyone know if a mod exists to either shorten or remove the daily cooldown for frigate missions?

I don't really care about the money or leveling the frigates, I just hate that for most of the day, 85% of my frigates sit in space doing nothing...

Unfortunately, that's not moddable. It's hardcoded right into the game itself.

There's a relatively new mod over at Nexusmods by someone who wanted the same thing, so he settled instead for just increasing the number of 'events' on each expedition by 4x, which also makes them take 4x longer.
Edit: Forgot to paste the link for the mod, in case you are interested: https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/2720

A mod I might actually use. Frigate expeditions used to be longer, 24 hours was not uncommon. It seems they got shorter during or shortly after the first expedition. Impatient users crying and stomping their feet won again.......

They only seem shorter to you, they actually aren't. The length/difficulty of the expeditions is influenced by how many total frigates you have, you are probably just getting a good freighter (with high command bonus) and/or getting mission duration upgrades before you fill out your frigate fleets in any newer saves....assuming you have made any newer saves.

On my expedition 9 save I didn't start working on the freighter upgrades at all until well after I filled out my frigate fleet, and I was seeing missions at 24+ hours every day. Now, of course, with all the upgrades installed, the longest are 6 to 7 hours.

Don't we already have freighter upgrades to increase frigate mission speed?

Oops, nevermind OP wants to eliminate the cooldown period between expeditions.

Yeah I just like to have my frigates doing something. I don't really care about rewards or length of expedition time.

Oh well.

This was all on my main with the same freighter. It seemed like something changed noticable. Maybe I'm wrong.

I wish they would make four and five star missions that were extra long. With my current fleet I can do any mission with any random five frigates, and I don't even have my freighter techs maxed out.

Expeditions come in 5 'lengths', from 'very short' to 'very long'.

They may have toned down the frequency of the "very long" expeditions. I wouldn't argue that and that could also explain what you noticed. But, when they do come up, they are still very long (over 24 hours) if you do not have a fully upgraded freighter with good frigates.
