To build a functional outpost Point of Interest (POI) anywhere in Starfield without encountering the restricted area error, players can use console commands to spawn a fake outpost beacon and override the restricted zone. By placing their outpost within the zone covered by the fake beacon, they can have the freedom to build and customize their outpost as desired.
To build a functional outpost Point of Interest (POI) anywhere in Starfield without encountering the restricted area error, follow these steps:
Open the console and spawn a fake outpost beacon using a specific console command. This fake beacon will override the restricted zone and can be placed wherever you point your crosshair. However, note that it doesn’t function properly, so don’t use it just yet.
Open the console again and select the fake beacon by clicking on it, ensuring that it displays a text with “act TI.” Then, enter another console command.
Move out of the zone covered by the fake beacon to trigger the normal screen for creating a new outpost using the regular method.
Return to the zone covered by the fake beacon and place your outpost anywhere you’d like. The notorious restricted zone message will no longer appear.
Interact with the newly placed outpost terminal to initiate the building process. Make sure to do this at least once to access the full range of building items. With this method, you can now build items anywhere you desire.
To prevent overlap errors when placing your own landing pad on top of existing ones and transforming any outpost into a real base where you can park your ship, add specific commands to your Starfield custom I. By following these steps, you can enjoy the freedom of constructing functional outposts wherever you choose in Starfield.
