The Last Caretaker is a perfect game for modders to expand its possibilities whether it comes to making certain actions faster or bringing a whole new set of stats. This guide will provide you with the five best mods in the game, including the following choices:
- One Second Dismantle Mod
- More Weight Capacity Mod
- Better Flashlight Mod
- More Power Management Mod
- No Storm Mod
One Second Dismantle Mod
The One Second Dismantle mod simplifies resource gathering in The Last Caretaker by greatly decreasing dismantling times. Breaking down items for materials typically feels tedious and time-consuming, but this mod adjusts the dismantle tool to finish in only one second for every object.
It’s a perfect tool for players who want to spend less time grinding and just want the freedom to explore and build. This mod helps streamline the process of scavenging all across the expansive ocean world. It is easy to install by extracting it into your Paks folder, and it can help you be more efficient, while not sacrificing your gameplay balance.
More Weight Capacity Mod
The More Weight Capacity mod deals with all inventory limits in the game, and it actually has two different versions: one that changes haul mastery upgrades to x5 and another to x10. Regular vanilla upgrades only add 1kg with each level. However, with this mod, every increase is either 5kg or 10kg per level, enabling you to hoard massive amounts of resources without the need to constantly run back to your base. This is a must-have tool for anyone looking to dedicate more time to survival, tackling much larger floating base expansions or deep sea diving.
Better Flashlight Mod
The Better Flashlight mod improves the game’s flashlight for better viewing in the dark and underwater to enhance your gameplay experience. It makes the light stronger, extends the cone angle to widen the field of view, and moves the light away from the player, reducing glare on your hands or weapon while holding it.
It’s no secret that exploring pitch dark shipwrecks or sailing at night during storms can be very tiring in The Last Caretaker. But this mod makes the gameplay more pleasurable while saving the use of batteries, which are often limited. This small quality of life adjustment is invaluable throughout the gameplay experience when serious threats lurk in the dark or when you’re looking for that hidden loot.
More Power Management Mod
The More Power Management mod greatly increases energy efficiency in The Last Caretaker by doubling the Power Management upgrade performance. While the vanilla game offers only -0.5% power usage efficiency reduction per upgrade, this mod increases that reduction to -1% with an end total of 0% for batteries, generators, and turbines at the highest upgrade level (-100%) usage efficiency.
Unfortunately, the previous x4/x10 versions of this mod resulted in softlocking and were removed, while this x2 version provides performance and stability. It’s a perfect tool for players with large raft bases that naturally use a lot of power, who want to avoid depleting valuable resources too quickly.
No Storm Mod
The No Storm mod removes any gameplay and performance disrupting weather and lightning storms, but generates bigger waves instead. As a result, it removes the visual and audio clutter associated with storms, causing huge FPS drops, while still creating a high wind speed that allows turbines to generate energy. This mod was created for players who enjoy the game but put more emphasis on gameplay itself than weather or lightning storms. It’s also suitable for owners of low-end computers, looking to imporve the performance of the game.
