Recommended mod:
Gacha-Smods

Mod Feature:
This mod enables you to utilize AI cores and colony items by installing them into your ships for various benefits.

Gameplay:
There are two types of hullmods that you can install to your ship. One uses AI cores called Armament Support System, and the second is Special Upgrades that uses colony items. You can only install one AI core hullmod and one Special Upgrade hullmod at the same time. However, they are mutually exclusive to their own category.

Please keep in mind that if a ship with these hullmods gets destroyed in combat, the respective item from the hullmod is lost forever.

How to obtain:
Simply reach level 9 or above and visit Port Tse Franchise Station located at Mayasura star system. Bring at least 100,000 credits then look for a troubled man drinking in the bar.

Potentially Asked Questions:

Spoiler

Q: Where's the hullmod for Dealmaker Holosuite and Fullerene Spool?
A: I didn't add them because I can't think a suitable and less repetitive effects for the Dealmaker and Fullerene. The Fullerene Spool is the most unremarkable one.

Q: Is this mod balanced?
A: It tried but it will not pretend to be that balanced.

Q: Can this mod be installed mid-game?
A: You can but you won't be able to learn the hullmods.

Q: Is this safe to remove mid-game?
A: No.

Q: Is this compatible with Nexerelin's random sector?
A: No.

Q: Losing the ships in combat with those precious colony items and AI cores are appalling. Will you remove that feature?
A: (lol)

Extra Feature:
This mod has a support feature for Gacha S-Mods to further your gambling addiction. There are intentionally hidden hullmods that can only be obtained through rolling the gacha of S-modding. These gacha hullmods gives strong bonuses or just outright broken (SSR) if you are lucky.

Spoiler

Your Gacha-SMod settings should be like this, in order to roll the hidden hullmods.

 "GachaSMods_onlyKnownHullmods": false,

nice mod, though there is a typo in the version file stopping game from loading.

Oopsie, I updated the download link. It should work properly now.

That shade of blue really doesn't work with dark mode.

Glad to see you back in the saddle.

Thanks! There, I changed it. I forgot that this forum has dark mode. :^)

[SoSD]

Ignoring balance considerations for a moment, given the rarity of the Pristine Nanoforge and how common Corrupted Nanoforges can be, it feels like the difference between the Pristine and Corrupted hullmods should be more significant.

I don't know if it would be better to make the Corrupted hullmod worse, or the Pristine hullmod better; perhaps the former, given the relative ease of collecting a few Corrupted Nanoforges.

Finally, perhaps something for a future release, but it would be neat to be able to toggle specific hullmods via a configuration file, to let users disable hullmods that they feel are less balanced.

[Aldazar]

Should be able to add the hullmods with console commands for mid game save correct?

Also I can't seem to edit the src rar at all to make edits to the hullmods.

[Nautilus81]

Finally, an actual use for all those spare items that I have lying around in storage! This'll be a welcome addition to my next run.

One question - would you be willing to add a config option in the settings.json that allows for more than one special item/AI core hullmod to be installed on a single hull, and perhaps one that removes mutual exclusivity with vanilla hullmods as well for those that have them?

[raptormother]

would there not be a way to learn these in a in progress game? Maybe spawning them with console commands?

[Zr0Potential]

Whoa this is very nice, looking forward to trying it out for my next playthrough

Some of the upgrades are gonna be overlapping with Extra Systems Reloaded Augmentations though, wonder if we can disable some of them

For the Nanoforge hullmods, I'll make some adjustments and probably tone down the corrupted version. I might as well throw an additional minor quirk for the pristine knowing how rare the item is.

As for the toggle option, that's not a bad idea. For now, it's duly noted.

One question - would you be willing to add a config option in the settings.json that allows for more than one special item/AI core hullmod to be installed on a single hull, and perhaps one that removes mutual exclusivity with vanilla hullmods as well for those that have them?

Sadly no, I will not add such options. The mutual exclusivity and incompatibilities will remain as it is.

Should be able to add the hullmods with console commands for mid game save correct?

I will eventually change the way of obtaining the hullmods; I'll make it more convenient for those who will add the mod mid-save.

Thank you. Unfortunately, I don't play ESR, rather I use Exotica Technologies so I can't help you with that. Though the suggestion of having a toggle on/off option for each upgrade in settings.json is a welcomed idea.
