The Starborn Trader will now sell starborn suits, exclusive quest-gated outfits, and outfits not unlockable in vanilla. Drip out your NG+ characters.
Starfield has a drip problem. Unique outfits are usually quest-gated; some outfits like the constellation member outfits require absurdly specific sequence of events; some outfits like Mei Devine’s are not even unlockable without console commands! Many starfield outfits also require killing faction members to obtain. You cant even pick your NG+ suit design. Since outfits dont carry over to NG+ and you cannot unlock most unique outfits within a single playthrough, playing dress-up in Starfield winds up to be pretty limited.
This mod utilizes the Starborn Trader ingame to immersively address all my fashion pet peeves.
Starborn Trader Overhaul
Buy old starborn suits from the Starborn Trader. Choose the armor design you like best, not what you get stuck with.
Buy unique quest outfits from the Starborn Trader. Enhance your fashion game in NG+.
Immersively unlock apparel that are only obtainable by console otherwise.
The Trader’s inventory is determined by the PlayerKnowledge actorvalues, which track the tasks the player has accomplished in previous universes. For example, the Trader will sell Sarah’s Outfit if you have romanced Sarah in prior universes.
The Trader sells starborn suits that you have unlocked before. I.e. in NG+3, she sells starborn suits up to NG+3. In NG+ 10 she sells copies of all 10 starborn suits. Starborn suits are legendary.
There is an engine bug where all ship vendors do not respawn their inventory. Every possible workaround I have tried is too janky for release, so I cannot address this.

FAQ
Q: The Trader’s inventory does not reset.
A: This is a bug in Vanilla. Spaceshiprefs do not work as proper vendors. This is a very frustrating vanilla issue that I cannot adequately address at the moment. It appears that the people who coded the trader quest did not even notice this serious issue with ship vendors.
Q: I bought items off the Trader and did not receive the items.
A: The items are in your ship’s cargo hold.
Q: This mod is not working
A: Vortex presently has issues installing mods containing both esm and scripts. A fix is expected soon.
