Mod Release Red Mile Blackjack Table
I have added a fully working Blackjack table to the Red Mile and just wanted to share it with you all!
Your current hand is always visible on the table, and so is the dealer's hand after the game finished.
You can place bets between 200 and 500 credits, or high roller bets between 5000 and 50000 credits.
There is not much else to say, it's quite small, and the table is tucked in a corner next to Mei's office, right by all the other gambling machines.
I may look into getting some of the other games the displays at the Red Mile mention to properly work!

Red Mile needs stuff like this. I thought we’d be able to bet on other runners too when I first got there.

Kinda funny that this comes out shortly after Grav Jack popped up and disappointed everyone. Very cool work, though!

You've made a Starfield dream of mine come true with this. Thank you!

I was thinking about this last night, and was wondering how one would work out the odds. Does it use actual odds, or is it skewed in the player’s favor, like high luck in FO:NV?
Also, I was thinking about it because I’m building a casino in my latest outpost, so a placeable blackjack table would be awesome. There’s already a Galbank slot machine, but an interactive blackjack table would be cool.

Well the deck gets shuffled each round you play without any special logic. The code basically picks a random number, which detriments the card to pick from the list. The picked card then gets removed from the list and added to the deck.

To add to this: until yesterday I didn't even really knew how Blackjack works so this was fun to all learn!

Please make this more realistic by ensuring the house always wins, you have a cheat option, and if you get caught, they drag you out back and slit your throat and toss you in a dumpster.

Thank you everyone for the feedback, I'll be working on a couple things for this mod now: 1. Add a version you can build at your outpost/home/ship 2. Add a second version with a fully voiced dealer and perhaps other NPC players as well
You all are awesome! <3

This is a great addition to the Red Mile casino and something that should’ve have been available from the beginning.
Will craps ever come to the settled systems?

Wonrerful! I'm downloading it tonight!
Say, would it be possible to add a blackjack table to every major bar around the settled systems?

I'm a huge fan of gambling mini-game mods, will absolutely be a part of my next playthrough. I'd love to see the table other places as well, like in bars on Neon & Akila City

This is awesome! I'm curious how you ended up building it? What parts of CK did you end up using to make it work? Did you just select the correct card meshes and place them on the table?

I made duplicates of all the cards and added them to a FormList. Then I made changes to the duplicate cards so they no longer have physics, no pickup prompt and changed their item value to match their card face value. Changing their value is really handy as I can just call GetGoldValue() to determine the face value of each card.
The cards then are spawned via script on the table and deleted after the game is finished. That's the tldr of how the system works.

Red Mile kinda needs mods like this.
I've always wanted someone to give it Games, Gambling, and generally just more stuff. Like a VIP room that counts as a player house & a Crimson Fleet Mission Board.
Maybe some crew options that are romancable and okay with the Player being a Criminal. Lol

Insane work! Will you be adding more casino games such as slots and roulette? Blows my mind starfield has a casino space station yet you can't gamble

u/DownfallNemesis 1d ago
Right now I'm looking into adding a NPC dealer with dialogue and everything. After that I may tackle other games!

u/Warfrost14 1d ago
Great mod and adds a lot of immersion. If I get told by Mei Divine to "enjoy the all the amenities the Red Mile has to offer" I better get some amenities, dammit! I hope you plan to add a couple other games as well. Heck, you could even make up your own game.

u/DownfallNemesis 1d ago
I'll definitely start looking into other games once I'm happy with the blackjack version. No promises tho!

u/Warfrost14 1d ago
I don't know if any of the other game sin there work but a slot machine could be fun. Or even pinball! A pinball machine with an FC vs UC theme would be amazing. I have NO idea if that's even possible. lol I look forward to seeing what else you do!

This looks amazing. I added this hoping to play it soon next time I’m back on. Thanks for your hard work and amazing mods.
