This page intends to list every known mod and tool repository at the time of writing this article. If a mod is missing or info is outdated, please let it be known in the wiki channel in the Discord and it will be fixed shortly after.
Many mods here will be split into subcategories if they are either made by the same developer and/or are complimentary towards the same idea (i.e. Bootleg Industries). Many of these cases will have multiple mods split into the same directory, and may take extra effort to install, and help will be given where necessary. Due to the nature of them, they're more likely to not conflict with each other due to the nature of how they are developed.
A handful of mods (henceforth known as tools) may also not act within the game itself in the traditional sense, and run as standalone complimentary executables.
Mods
[SPDX] Industries of Enceladus
Industries of Enceladus is a mod that focuses on ship configuration and options in a way that tries to be as inline with the established canon and world of the game as possible. Its key feature is the implementation of Cargo Bay Accessories, a separate upgrade route that offers an assortment of modules to be installed inside the cargo bay, with their own benefits and drawbacks. -GITHUB Description
Industries of Enceladus (IoE for short) is a content mod that adds 11 new ships, 46 new installable equipment options, overhauls to cargo bay systems and improvements, and adds four new docking bays to the OCP line of ships.
NOTE: due to the way this mod is structured, currently is incompatible with most other mods currently in development. A workaround is currently being figured out.
Download: the latest version of IoE can be downloaded from the Github's releases page here.

SaveEdit
SaveEdit is a tool focused on providing players the ability to modify a save file in a way that gives them full control over the data. From the GUI, it gives the option to modify generic values (money, insurance, stored ores, etc.), crew (wages, morale, education and experience levels, etc.), astrogation points (editing the location, time and tracked object), and many other options.
It also provides the ability to export and import a save to a text file for those who want to change things not available in the GUI, however it does require some know-how to use.
SaveEdit will taint a save as "cheeted" when you save a modification or imported save, which means that you cannot earn achievements or leaderboard positions (outside of using mods that disable the functionality of it). It is always a good idea to back up the save before modifying it.
Downloads can be found on the releases page on the Github here.
