Starfiled update 2024
Combat & Ship Damage
Ammo Weight & Carry Capacity
Cargo Access Distance & Vedor Credits
Using the Cargo Access Distance feature, you can customize how you access your ship’s cargo. You have three options: access cargo from anywhere, limit access to outposts or settlements, or only access it from inside the ship. Although this option gives you a +2% XP Bonus, it’s best to stick with the standard settings unless you’re ready for the extra work involved.

Medical Item Healing, Food Healing & Sleeping Healing

These three gameplay options affect your health recovery. Medical Item Healing controls how quickly you regain health from med packs and other medical aids. You can choose to recover faster, which has a -2% penalty, or slower, which provides a +4% XP bonus. Food Healing lets you decide how much health you gain from eating food; selecting none gives you a +2% bonus, while more healing results in a -2% penalty. Sleep Healing indicates where or if you can recover health or heal from afflictions. If you choose to heal wherever you sleep, it costs a -6% penalty, but many players find this not worthwhile. The Location Limited Sleeping option restricts affliction recovery but allows health recovery while sleeping at ship outposts and settlements, making the +2% XP bonus valuable. Choosing None gives a +4% bonus but doesn’t allow any recovery during sleep or rest, meaning you’ll depend on food and medical supplies to heal.
