ExposeCreativeMode Mod
This mod allows you to enable "Creative Mode" and play without limitations (Well, atleast without a few limitations)
Enabling "Creative Mode" will disable achievements for the save, so keep a separate save to use it on.
How to use this mod
- First install the mod, and reboot the game.
- Press Shift + F4 to toggle creative mode
(Note: Enabling creative mode will auto-enable Infinite Inventory, Instant Build and Instant Research)
- You need to be in creative mode to use the rest of the functions below
Functions
All controls are rebindable. Detailed explanation of functions are given further below.

| Restore Terrain |
- |
Hold a combination of the Ctrl and Shift keys while pressing the "Flatten Terrain" keybind to restore terrain
Ctrl - Restore shallow oceans
Shift - Restore mid-level oceans
Ctrl + Shift - Restore deep oceans
You will not be able to apply foundation over restored terrain using the foundation tool, unless you also install the UncoverFoundationedOceans mod.
I recommend to install that mod also so that you can partially flatten an area after restoring terrain, otherwise you will have to "Flatten Terrain" again to be able to build on ocean level area |
| Bury / Raise Veins |
Numpad 4 |
Toggles bury/raise all veins on the planet |
| Infinite Station |
Ctrl + Numpad 0 |
Toggles Infinite Station mode |
Infinite Inventory mode
- Makes the player inventory have all items present in the game
- All items are reset to 9999, with the stack size being 30000 every frame
- Because the stack is greater, items which go into the inventory are effectively "deleted"
(Note: Infinite Inventory is skipped when saving game data, so you will have your previous inventory when you load it the next time)
Instant Research mode
- You can lock / unlock specific tech in the tech tree screen and also increase / decrease the research level of infinite research.
- Hold the "Lock Research" keybind to lock / decrease research.
- You can also use the Ctrl and Shift keys to modify the number of levels to increase / decrease.

Infinite Station mode
- This mode is primarily for testing blueprints, by making stations infinitely output to belt and consume from belt without needing any drones/vessels
- Makes all stations set to supply have items less than half of max
- Makes all stations set to demand have items more than half of max
- In the case of ILS, only remote supply/demand is checked. If remote is set to storage, then local is taken
Infinite Power
- All buildings connected to a power network will work at 100% regardless of the amount of power supply
- Buildings not connected to a power network will still NOT work
Infinite Reach
- You can now inspect, interact with, build and delete items across the entire planet. Inspect works even in Planet View mode
