Overhaul Landing Pads and Textures at the various Space Stations.
This mod brings a bit of love and attention to the various Space Station entities within the game. Normal Space Stations, Pirate Stations and Abandoned Stations all get an affectionate overhaul from the obvious texture changes to some QOL tweaks also.
The idea behind this is to introduce a small but noticeable level of consistency across space stations as there seems to be too much of a disconnect between them.
The primary tweaks are as follows:
All Docking Pads Light Trim Colour Tweaks
All Docking Pads Light Trim are Animated
All Docking Pads Raise/Lower Animations
Floor Tiles are a little Dirtier (less reflective)
Docking Pad Spot Lights Colour Adjustment
Docking Pad Spot Lights Positions Adjusted
Space Station LOD adjustments (shop areas).
Note: Modifies Station LOD for both LEFTSECTIONTRIGGER / RIGHTSECTIONTRIGGER entities. This allows for visibly active shops from either side of the gantry area and greatly reduces the asset pop-in when approaching different shops. This is not a total LOD solution as you will still see a couple of assets continue to load when approaching a shop. Other mod authors have already addressed this more fully.
