Each such other OXP either adds little to Interstellar Tweaks or else add things that one might not want or at least do not need. Of the OXPs that are ``not`` in the Manager, Interstellar Tweaks benefits from, especially, the Missionaries OXP.)

 '''OXPs which Interstellar Tweaks enhances/uses'''
-Interstellar Tweaks can draw upon all of the following (and indeed, but in a fairly trivial way, a few that I do not list here) - but it ''requires'' none of them. Most but not all of the packs are available via the in-game Expansions Manager. (The remainder will have to be downloaded and installed manually. The in-game expansions manager will suggest - as accompaniments to Interstellar Tweaks - only those packs that are available via that manager.)
