Create: Trade Depots

Create: Trade Depots adds corporation-run salvage depots, jobs, wreck recovery, and a growing trade economy to Create: Aeronautics.

This mod is currently in beta and will keep growing with new content, balancing, and depot themes.

What Can You Do?

• Discover trade depots run by different corporations.
• Take delivery jobs and earn currency and reputation.
• Buy Salvage Leads that point toward damaged ships.
• Explore wrecks, recover useful parts, and clean up what is left behind.
• Use RIVET blocks to manage cargo and interact with ships.
• Shop for salvage supplies, rigging equipment, and special upgraded vehicle parts.
• Unlock more jobs and better shop choices as you build reputation.

Getting Started

1. Find a trade depot.
2. Use the Depot Interface to browse jobs and shop offers.
3. Complete delivery jobs to earn money and reputation.
4. Purchase a Salvage Lead when one is available.
5. Follow the map to find a wreck.
6. Take the parts you want, then mark the wreck for salvage cleanup when you are done.

Salvage Shops

Every depot has its own shop stock that refreshes over time.

You can find useful salvage supplies like glue, rope equipment, magnets, docking hardware, charcoal, goggles, and special upgraded mechanisms, unique to this mod.

As you gain reputation, depots offer more choices and unlock more specialized vehicle parts.

Create: Trade Depots — Beta

This mod is not ready for actual play- this is for bug testing and content creation. core play is in place but need more ships and more depot varients. If you are interested in helping contact me for the discord link

Create Trade Depots adds a frontier trade network for Create: Aeronautics.

Discover generated corporate depots across the world. Accept fulfillment contracts and deliver cargo through depot or RIVET interfaces. Purchase survey leads and salvage contracts. Track down damaged Aeronautics craft for recovery and rebuilding. Use depot protection zones to keep each trade hub secure. Beta release: Core systems are playable, but balance, content, and edge-case behavior are still being tested and may change. Please back up worlds before updating.

getting started: Bonus chest it selected will give you a survey lead which should lead you to your first depot. If no bonus chest, you can sometimes buy a survey lead from a Wandering Trader, but it might be easier to "Persuade" them to drop one for you. Cartographers are known to rarely keep them in there chest. earn coins, buy salvage leads. With luck with 2 or 3 salvages you can fix up your own ship from the parts.
