Hi,
I just added 2 new categories for mods on xelerus:
Newbie Boosts: mods that help new players to make the game a bit easier, but not godmodded
UI Enhancements: all mods that add new UI stuff and new things in dockscreens

Good idea.

Comments about my mods:
* Fabricator Overwrite is not a newbie boost. If anything, it is a UI enhancement. This is because the primary feature of it is to let to player drop multiple instances of an item into the fabricator. It is a time saver. For the player who does not know what he is doing and drops a bunch of weapons into the pit, things will turn ugly very quickly.

* If newbie boost and godmod categories are mutually exclusive, then Mining Cheat is a godmod. For mining, the only thing more powerful than teleporting all ore to the player (and ignoring cargo capacity limits in the process) is to spawn an arbitrary amount out of nothing as often as desired.
Download and Play in 1.9 beta 1...
