Starsector

have you edited the amount of ram the game uses?
vmparams

Not that guy but when I did that the game refused to open.

Ship and Weapon pack.
Heavy Industry and Fuel Production for $$$. Also making an Orbital Station and then a Patrol HQ should be your first priorities.
Nah, we are on 0.9.1 now.
Don't tell me what to do

Bumpie wumpie

Bumped again

Just let it die, it's the fate of star sector threads. We'll be back with a new update.

I hope next big update will come soon

ok which Star Fortress is the best?

well lads this is it.

How much money would you recommend I have at hand to start?

A million at the very least, and then you would have to invest almost all your money into the colony.

What is the best Legion loadout for long range combat?

This is the same as with a new update release. Lots of threads on Yea Forums for a couple weeks
Threads start to slow down
Threads die before they hit bumb limit

drop repair unit and some cap for a couple of big guns and fuck some Onslut with them

This is an understandable cycle for lesser known games though, you can't talk about the same 5 things forever.

Is it worth it to get commissioned by a faction just to buy some battlecruisers?

Fighting isn't profitable in this game unless you fight for something. Even bounties aren't worth it after the initial few.
Smuggle drugs or something until you can aford a defective Dram and at least a few freighters, 70k total should be enough. Then go do exploration. Derelict ships, probes, planet surveys, etc.

Station is 250
Patrol HQ is 300

Building up a decent combat fleet from the starting exploration cruiser/tanker/light carrier is really hard

Yea, you shouldn't do it.

dont bother fighting anything early on. depending on what your starting fleet is you want to just do the dockside bar trading stuff/accpeting trade missions between worlds. then you want to pool enough credits to buy some fuel tankers/freighters and go exploring. ideally you want to come across research stations/caches/derelict ships/terran planets for later colonization. alpha cores sell to the try tachs for bank and it's absolutely worth selling the initial ones you find

your starting fleet just determines how far along this path you are, with explorer (the one with the high tech cruiser) being the furthers, which is able to set off for the outer worlds almost immediately. the bounty hunter is kinda fun for picking off pirate fleets and is the quickest way to level your character + officer up, if that's what you want to do.

Do I have to start with a mining colony or can I just immediately jump into heavy industry and rely on imported materials? My plan is to have heavy industry first, military base second, then start a second colony for mining, to be safe from pirates.

No it’s shit

>Sabot missile
a bit limited in ammo, I was looking for reloading types. when you are taking on entire fleets limited ammo is a real concern
>and antimatter blaster
that's a large energy slot tho, not small. it's a super secret mod frigate so it gets pretty insane

in terms of weapons I'm using the equivalent of a vanilla tachyon lance x1.5

and there we have it

Thanks to you and the others who replied. Yeah that was my plan- i just want to explore as much as poss but whenever I get near anything tasty like a derelict or research station its defended by remnant or pirates. Is the trick to just stealth around them somehow?

Ok, stick close to the capital, have the fighters thin down their ranks, the buffalo mk2 and the frigates are prime targets as they'll fall easily leaving you with less stuff to worry about

anyone figure out how to speed up structure building time? ive messed with some values in game files but it didnt work. its probably do-able with cheat engine or similar software though.

can someone tell me what to do after you do the red planet mission and hoard multiple millions. ive got couple planets and everything in the game. really thought there would be SOME story or am i missing something? It is a great game. but, after what, nine years in development i was expecting more on the story side.

You need to dive deep into the abandoned outer planets, with salvage ships and skills. Survey every planet, answer hails if you see any, keep an eye out on fuel. You'll start piecing it together eventually...

Really wish somebody made a bioweapon alien faction, sth like Gauna from Sidonia no Kishi.

so I watched sseth video like many others and decided to give it a go reminding the good old days of space ranger 2.

I'm still at the tutorial and damn this game has a lot of shit to do.
Are the "text based missions" a thing throughout the game or are they completely over after the tutorial?

How should I spend my skill points at the beginning?

I was thinking of scavenging mostly until I can afford a good ship probably. Is it a viable way of playing?

Also meme aside what's a good way to get some income going on at the start of the game?

How the fuck do I outfit Legion?
I'm doing scavange-only run and I've found one in the bumfuck nowhere. I have like 3 Hammerheads, 2 Wolves, a Sunder and this big fat fuck. I didn't even find/loot a cruiser yet.

right now there aren't that many, just 2 in vanilla

The ship and weapon pack, I believe, increases this by one.

Thanks for the replies! are you both talking about the rogue AI/remenant? ive seen like 1 or 2 stations that they have. im remebering the distress calls in sseths vid and i have not done those. I will though

It is mostly made by one guy. Come on man, I barely encounter any sort of bug in this game and the lack of story content supposedly will be in the next annual update. As long as the base game is solid, its good enough for me. Despite that, I will agree with you. The game is getting too big and lacks the details on those fronts especially the story.

Nope. There are a couple shit versions of two ships that are available to the player, but that's it.

What kind of modification did you perform? I'd appreciate a tutorial unless it's too much effort.

Better raise that yellow flag

In the mod folder for DME hulls folder theres a excel sheet called Ship_hulls. So scroll down and you will find a section for the Blade Breakers and scroll to the right under the "hints" column and you will find lines like UNBOARDABLE, HIDE_IN_CODEX, PHASE.

I'm not sure exactly what distance the enemy fleet has to be from the jump point in order for the warning to show up.

If you have a massive fleet it takes a couple of seconds for your fleet to materialize on the other side and the pirate fleet could have EB'd as soon as he started to pop in to hyperspace

One thing that happened to me was a pirate armada that had just surfed a hyperspace storm ambusing me at insane speeds. I didn't even have time to save my game and got fucked

yap, first get 10 mil in the bank, second scout out a system with 1 habitable 1 cryo and 2 low hazard worlds, third colonize said worlds all at once, your hab planet should be a food & organic planet your cryo should be your fuel planet and the low hazard should be your industry, try to get as many alpha cores as possible and never use them as administrators have fun!

As newfag from sseth, when was the last big annual update (0.9 I assume), and would that make the next big one 1.0?

have you ever seen the sight of 15 missle cruisers unload on the hegemonys face user? neither have I, I only got a blue screen.

The nemy fleet is far enough from the gate not to trigger the warning, they already have burn drive maxed out due to chasing something else, the second they see you come out of the gate they switch to targeting you and close the distance before you can accelerate. It's rare, but it happens.

Newbie here, What should I be getting more of in my fleet to be able to fight off the remnants guarding these survey ships I've found? I can win but it results in heavy losses. More Frigates? More Big boys?
I excluded the freighters and tankers that are supporting the fleet.

Carriers. Carriers, carriers. Remnants are notoriously weak against carriers.

You mean the [redacted] or the things actually guarding the survey probe/ship?

Redacted will need cruisers and even capital ships depending on the warning beacon.

The automated drones defending probes and survey ships can by killed by pretty much everything. They don't even have shields so missiles and explosive weapons will wreck them.

Everything is notoriously weak to carrier spam honestly.

>As newfag from sseth
I am in the same boat as you though. For your question, I don't know. Maybe November or December this year judging from his previous 0.9 release last year. Will it be 1.0 as in a complete game? Doubtful, as I said, its missing a lot details, story, diplomacy, special events, job variety, things to spice up your monotonous galaxy faring experience. 0.10 will be a more realistic expectation (I know the version number is wrong but you get the point).

Probes are easy pickings but survey ships and the Red Planet are too much for me currently.

At least other factions have point defense. Remnants pretty much rely entirely on their own drones to deal with fighters.

>survey most of the galaxy
>still can't decide on the system to colonize
I'm gonna roll the wheel and colonize a random 100% planet. Wish me luck.

you know you don't have to have all of your colonies in the same system?

where my wanzerbros at

Its better to colonize a system with multiple 125-175 planets with good resources than it is to colonize a system with one 100% planet and nothing else.

Reason being that each planet will spawn defense fleets and they will supply each other with the resources they are missing.

>you don't have to have all of your colonies in the same system?
No, thank you. Babysitting one system from pirate raids every 2 months is enough busy work for me.

is there anything wrong in loading my onslaught with point defense on it's sides and leaving the big damage guns for the front?

>a system with multiple 125-175 planets with good resources
There isn't one in my sector. It's either full 200+ with rich ores or full 125- with zero resources. All I wanted was a system with one habitable planet under 125 and one ore rich planet under 250, and there literally isn't one in the entire galaxy.

see if you have multiple planets in a single system, any raid or inspection fleet will get curbstomped by your patrols

Read the conversation, for fucks sake. I'm telling the other guy that I don't want to colonize multiple systems because I want all my pirate defenses in one place and then you tell me the EXACT SAME THING. Thanks a lot, man.

What's all the hubub about the New Galactic Order mod? I tried it, their ships seem a bit underpowered and the writing is infantile at times but not extremist enough to warrant it being deleted.

Do you have the original or censored version?

I have the one from the pastebin, don't think the original is even compatible with the current version. How bad was it?

Devs didn't want a SJW shitstorm I guess.

That mod was low quality shit anyway.

pretty conservative folder, go ahead if you don't really want anything else.
desu I would add ship/weapon pack so that your second run has some new ships besides the ludds, it's a pretty balanced mod that is focused in complementing vanilla. also has god tier sprites. it doesn't actually add any new factions if that's your concern, just adds stuff to the existing stuff and gives them some flavour

Well, it's mostly the same: a bunch of military types managed to create the "best, most prosperous society in mankind's history" after "an old terran ideology", but the non censored version includes historical Nazi cabinet members, SS imagery and historical labor camps.

>There isn't one in my sector.

Motherfucker, I surveyed my entire fucking map and there wasn't a single habitable world in the entire galaxy outside the core and the only planets with sub 175 Hazard were in systems with neutron stars. No jungle worlds. No arid worlds. No terran worlds. Just barren, or bombed out, or irradiated, or some form of massive volcanic activity.

My advice: get the Command Console mod, find a system you like, and edit the planet you want to be habitable. Fucking terraforming should be an option in the game, anyway.

Which mod did that so that I know to avoid it? I got the 0.9.1 compatible version and I'd rather avoid whichever modder did the petty shit.

The entire concept of "we forgot how to do stuff" is the most lazy, hackneyed, and bullshit excuse ever. You really expect me to believe these motherfuckers remember how to build hyperspace drives and plasma cannons, but robots that grow algae and scrub radiation off of rocks is too complicated for them to figure out?

Horseshit.

are all these threads made by the devs?

I settled for Archipelago and Alkaline and Gas Giant with plentiful volatiles and floating platform in the same system. Those planets are pretty worth it especially in one place. If there's one thing I learned, NEVER take a system with a solo planet. It's not worth it for shit.

Also, Alpha Cores are the best harem. Fuck Heg-cucks and their low-tech rustbuckets.

Because they don't. They have the blueprints to have machines construct those things but without them they can't do shit on their own. Everything is based of blueprints.

Not really. If for whatever reason the city you live in is completely cut off from the rest of the world, i'm pretty sure it would also descend into chaos.

its simplified in game but essentially you should have single chips with data that inserted into printer print you stuff, from hammers to spaceships
so you would need a set of chips for every printer/forge if you lost it or somebody steal it you would be screwed
of course you can still make things old way but you need knowledge and tools these things are both lacking in sector

N-no

Think of it like this.
You have a russian blueprint.
No one speaks russian. No one has any books on russian. No one has met a russian or knows what russia is.
But people DO know that if you take this huge proprietary russian file with gibberish russorunes on it, and plug it into the old factory covered in russorunes, and press the big green button that says идти then the Russian factory will pull details from the Russian blueprint and make you a T-72.

When you 'consume' the russian blueprint you're just putting it on a space USB stick.
You have no idea what it is or how it works.

I fly enforcers with flaks and shit
its still not fun

That picture... I really want to believe you, AI, but I'm not removing your bomb collar.

My ships barely have good point defenses, which makes that battle a huge problem. Still, 1* rating does not seem to check fighter capabilities.
Are there any good small ballistic point defenses? My pirate fleet can't equip lasers except few of my IBB bounty ships. Also, almost all of those Tri-Tachyon fighters in that battle are phase fighters or something. Could Doom mines even hit them? Because my point defenses can't.

that can mean a lot of different things because of the lack of context. maybe the kadur mod owner wrote that in case NGO got updated for 9.1, maybe this was written in case the crash code was removed by the user, maybe its another thing entirely. But this is not proof that there is a crash code in there.

I think the real reason why he got pruned was because he constantly tried to bait people into /pol/ tier arguments on the forums and refused to de-escalate situations.

Now I realize why my ships can't seem to kill any fighters. What a nightmare. These little shits keep my PD busy while bombers can close on my ships safely. I need to recheck my my pd completely.

That's not surprising in even the slightest measure.
But specifically blocking your mod from working with his is just being a petulant child.

There's an upgrade you can get that jacks the shit out of your PD accuracy and makes it so they ignore flares and target torpedoes and missiles before fighters.

Someone explain to me how do I counter enemy fleets of cruisers/battleships that just hug together all the time and none of them will never break away from rest of their group? Because my ships just can't do the same no matter what orders I give them.

Use a phase ship and break their feet apart by phasing inside of them, most of them will turn around or break the line.

What if I don't have any phase ships?

Get several ships to follow you and flank the fleet. Use long range weapons to pressure them. Use carriers.

no its not you double nigger
at last you have this mod with pirate fourteenth battlegroups ships

change your angle of attack, generally fights that I can't win charging forward are easily won by moving to the side's

AI tends to follow ships and engage until its dead, rarely retreating or waving off. Could use a small nimble ship (like a Hound or something). Also, sometimes it's best to just huddle up yourself and let 'em throw their ships at you, but this depends on your fleet comp really.

There is no translation, dumbass. And it's special because it's horribly balanced chinese anime space magic, with lots of unique mechanics and ships that are silly fun, and a bunch of end game boss fleets to give you something to do when planetary defense fleets become little more than a speed bump.

if you tryhard you might be able to only have 2-4 losses

So, the first pirate raid on my newly-established colony is about to commence. All I can muster is Legion(D), Enforcer and some smaller ships (and small space station). Will it be enough?

They don't turn on you immediately? Here I am running around doing bounties and stealing their ships or just building my own at my colony

How are they unbalanced? I played with their faction and only few of their ships seemed viable enough against vanilla tier enemies. They're quite easy to deal with as enemies too

doubt it

Did you seriously just ask how Appro is unbalanced?

Is it worth it to take this? I still lack capital ship, but with that damage I'm not so sure.

Relatively harmless D-mods are a blessing

I'm genuinely curious.

Depends on how hard the Radiant fucks you in the ass

Yes 14th battle group ships are rare and get buffs over normal ones. An onslaught is a good one even better with the rare battle group hill mod

The station will already be enough to keep all their trash occupied, the legion is already the cherry on top

Those aren't bad, but I'd take an Onslaught XIV with any D-Mods and just stash it if it turns out too crippling to use it. Once you get some decent industry hull restoration becomes relatively cheap so dropping 4 mil to get a pristine XIV out of every hulk you salvaged is great.

Shill me the vayra mods. They seem to be big, but modder does not post ship screenshots on forum.

>take contacts on derelicts
>collect payments, loot derelicts
>come back to core worlds with ridiculous amounts of loot

Apogee is a good cruiser, especially if you find a plasma cannon.

play salvage only (only allowed to buy supplies, fuel and crew, nothing else), go heavy on industry and just use ships with all the d-mods and equip reinforced bulwark on all of them, you'll never lose a ship because you'll just keep bringing them back to life no matter how many times they die, and the industry skill will make the d-mods a mild annoyance rather than a huge detriment, really fun playthrough

>got 14 intelligence chips

I'm running out of money and I havent seen trade missions about these in a long time now.

Should I get more dakka ships or just carrier spam like a faggot and play every battle at 5 fps?

Ok newbie here
Is there any downside to adding more and more ships to my fleet other than the supply costs?
Should I trim off a bunch of ships?

how is your speed?
also max ship limit is 30 so you would not able to salvage more than that
worth mention that smaller targets will run from you so you may decide to remove some junkmasters

Supply and fuel demands are not insignificant. Also, slow ships slow you down.

Nothing wrong with that if you can handle it except larger fleets suffering more from storms. Although there's hardly any reason to have more than 10 ships that go in combat because of how much stronger ship with properly leveled officer is compared to non-officer one.

quick question fags, should I shutdown something for techmining? I do not have all blue prints yet, do I get something good with techmining and an alpha core?

Attached: star.png (1904x1080, 2.14M)

There's a max limit to how many ships you can have, so eventually you want to replace your tin cans with quality ships. Same goes for supply ships as well: instead of having multiple small tankers or freighters you ideally want few big ones. Also if your fleet is too big you can't retreat from battles. I don't remember the exact limit but left side of your fleet screen should have a warning saying "your fleet is too large to disengage from unwanted battles" if it's too big. If you get fucked you can disengage mid-battle when you or the enemy loses enough ships, so you can still possibly avert a complete wipe.

Aside from those, most ships will increase your sensor profile (especially big civilian ships), meaning that enemies can detect you from farther away. Max burn level (speed on galaxy map, not battles) is limited to your slowest ship in the fleet. There's a ship mod that increases max burn level by 2, but it's locked behind a blueprint you have to find first.

>the /vg/ thread is dead because everyone that was posting are banned

It would have been ideal to get tech mining first, at some it will run out of stuff to mine and at that point it's best to delet it

does that mean I can make more than 9?might kill the shield then, so I don't need any ground defence anymore?

you can edit the setting files yourself or get mod for that

Is it just me or do shieldless ships behave weird when you give them shields via hullmod?
Been testing my hound with a shield but it would suddenly broadside the enemy making the shield pointless, as well as being unable to shoot the enemy with the medium ballistic. Won't use flares against incoming missiles as well.

>does that mean I can make more than 9
Nope, now you can only have 4 industries, but things like the planetary shield, the waystation and the space station don't count as one. If you are updating to 9.1, i'd reccomend you to do it after you have stripped your ruins clean

You are supposed to have no more than 4 now. But main change was colony progression getting slowed down so that you no longer can have it printing absurd money after 500k initial investment and 3 months.

Reduces your detection range and makes it harder for fleets to ind you. It's a good idea to do outside civilized space, just remember to turn it back on when you come back.

The thing is that the high tech space station is the hardest nut to crack due to the phase mines and the infinite flux energy weapons they have, so....
the ii Dominus are easy to find and buy, and also have fighter bays. Given that you already have an onslaught, i'd recommend you to get two dominus (dominee?) with hardened shields and 2/3 of their loadout with kinetics, fill them with bombers (cobras, daggers, or equivalent) and send them all at once. The idea is that the station will divide all of its attention between the fighters and while its doing that, the capitals will bring the station's shields down allowing the bombers to destroy it.

Eagle has very good staying power for its price and can do decent damage too. Dies much less than dominators against any serious enemies because AI relies a lot on ability to disengage to survive and armor tank in a game where everything has reaper torpedoes on them is a joke.
Falcon is like eagle but worse in any aspect that matters.

For the AI, Eagle is good as a long range gun platform. Heavy Maulers and Hypervelocity Drivers up front, plus two Graviton Beams and an Ion Beam in the rear.

no that was faked, someone posted a random pic of a virus scan site and someone looked it up and that url was for a scan of another game
this is one of the caused as trolls started larping as angry modders/discorders that were trying to censor mods and started the drama that way.

>spend the supplies to stabilize them and the fuel for another back and forth trip, most likely multiple times
yeah no

jeez, there is no need to be so aggressive.
oh wow, i was expecting something bad, but that thread was kinda worse than what i expected.

fuck you you goddamn blithering nigger sucker

Daily reminder the autistic modding discord circlejerk posts in these threads. They're also trying to take control of the /vg/ threads.

Do disabled capital ships just have a tiny chance to be recovered or something? I have the salvage perks but it seems that most of the time it just lets me salvage my own ships.

this, but don't forget there is also pure trolls that doesn't care about that and just want to ruin it.

That's the nazi sperg I was talking about.

there is no need to be so angry in the morning/afternoon. mr.rogers would be disapointed.

eh, they are on vg, so no problem there.

Do you merge approlight plus into the base approlight mod?

Midline or high-tech for colonies? I'm guessing high-tech for the ones I will be upgrading to tier 3, midline for unimportant worlds that will stay at tier 2?

High tech for all

midline is the worst
go low tech or high tech, it's basically just aesthetic difference

Tier 3 high tech spits mines everywhere. It's the best.

If you have enough energy weapons blueprints, go for high tech, otherwise keep on low tech. Anyways, the main difference between the two is the color and the types of mines the bases deploy

i put high tech on blue planets and low tech on yellow/lava planets

Do I just spam agressive officers if I want my space battles to go better?

actually they stay here forever
is useful if you scavenged more fuel than you need for going back for example or some precious stuff

still to costly for large amount of some cheap stuff

Low-tech for lava/barren, midtech for desert/arid/savannah, high-tech for ice/ocean/frozen and terran.

no it literally says it'll last about 90 days
unless you mean that it'll float around the system forever, which is possible, but good fucking luck finding it again

damn

But I have a jungle world.

Only when they have appropriate ships. Aggressive devastator domi is a good choice, aggressive Onslaught is a better one, and an aggressive Astral will get bumfucked before your screening does.

What makes a ship good for an agressive officer?

>this shit again
There is no fucking invasion you goddamn retard. The world isn’t out to get you.

If the conquest were to be rebalanced and made good, what should be changed?

>better shield coverage and flux:damage ratio

The world isn't out to get me, but the corrupt elites that rule it certainly are. There is an invasion alright, an invasion of shitskinned subhumans, enabled by weak sheeple like you. The race war is looming close, friend, make sure you end up on the right side of the line when it's drawn.

It will stay in orbit for 90 days, afterwards it'll desync or probably float into the star/black hole if you stabilized it near there

it depends in the hard points, speed and the loadout that you can give it. for example, phase ships are good for aggressive AI because they can alpha strike an enemy and flee whenever things get too hot; an onslaught is good as well because it usually outguns and out armors whatever enemy it faces. On the other hand a carrier sucks because its main firepower its in the fighter wings and they usually spread among all the enemies, and their speed usually is very low, so if an ai drives it to the middle of a fight, it will explode 99% of the time.

you forgot to use the word schizo

nice falseflag

What prefixes do you guys use for your ships? Do you use any? The standard ISS seems kinda lame but I'm hard pressed to come up with something better

i come up with fun names, its my favourite part of the game

Keep them in separate folders, I think. Plus is just an addon that requires having the base Approlight enabled.

you forgot to add "meso" at the end of your sentence, meso.

I have two questions:
>my colony has active space isis cells but the colony threat screen shows them to be financed by a luddic church system instead of a luddic path one. is this a bug? do I have to nuke those niggers?
>is pic related combo endgame (keep in mind I have a tachyon lance and a heavy intensity laser on the left side of my Odyssey)? I've been mowing down orbital stations and medium low-tech fleets with 0 effort and 0 losses

Main battery made to face front.
Seriously, I still don't get what's the purpose of broadside based ships in this game. They require so different style of play your basic mechanical memory for this game starts fucking with you if you try one, and there's no reason to invest into learning them, because there's few of them and they're meh at best.

>higher base mobility with a different active ability
Accelerated Ammo Feeder. I want a capital that can be as fun as a Hammerhead.

I have a question:
>who are you quoting?

Give it a static shield, but make it cover both the left side in a 150 arc, and the right side in a 150 arc, so near coverage, but two obvious weakpoints

Its autistic and time consuming, but i usually use the initials of the faction i use plus the first letter of the kind of ship any specific ship it is.
So a dominus BattleCarrier that is in the Dick Butt faction would be the "DBBC Ship Name Goes Here"

A special shield that gets mirrored on both sides

its bugged(or work like intended - who knows) right now
it stays forever like some derelicts and probes you find when exploring

I think it's entirely possible for Pathers to build a station in core worlds, but I could be wrong.
Now for my question: how did you get all that cash
?

Why do you have fighters on astral? It's for bombers only, if you want fighters 2 herons cost 5 points less and have system actually useful for them.
Swap tachyon lance to autopulse or plasma on odyssey, you should be able to apply hard flux. Tachyon lance becomes actually strong non-meme weapon only if you have 4 of them on same ship.

In which colonies should I open Commerce?

>25% hazard
Damn son
Where did you find this?

on the ones you visit the most.

Starting a new save. What faction should I start as?

Attached: sectorfactions.png (293x862, 103K)

Any planet will work. The only actual use of Commerce is to have somewhere in-faction to sell shit to.

That one, the aspergers syndicate.

>7 industries
How???

Looks like a previous version of the game

I know Junk Pirates is a meme but is Kadur that bad too?

Not bad, just painfully mediocre.

While it clearly is (no industry limit UI), you can also cheese it with Nexerlin, as the AI has no industry limits, and if they conquer your colony, they can build extra industry.

you can also just edit the llimit in notepad lmao

yes, but the industry limit its always shown on the right. once i captured a Diable station that had 4/3 industries.

Oh hey they split Vayras Sector and Kadur Remnant into two separate mods this morning.

Here, have the secret discord mod in its most recent iteration

People cant handle their personality.

read nigga, read
it's translated with google translate for the latest version of SS

>losing to pirates
how? those fuckers ride around cardboard ships, even their capital class ones are garbage

Oops, forgot to delete image. Was gonna post these separately.

Simple, although both sides firing in tandom will be absolute hell on your flux, even with reasonable stuff mounted since it'd be 4x large and 4x medium. Might make it so that just the first two of each side will fire frontwards instead.

Easiest change. You could do that now by editing the ships.csv file and changing the thrusters to "ammofeed". I don't think you'd need to edit the specific ship file for Conquest because I don't think the ability is mentioned there.

That, I don't know how to do, but giving it a front shield instead would be easy, on par with changing it to an ammo feeder ability.

I'll upload a version with front-facing weapons and tweaked stats next thread since this one is almost dead. Still figuring out how to keep it from being disgustingly OP if I give it front batteries AND ammo feeder. Might end up reducing the shield to a 180 and increase the base flux:damage ratio on it. Also, you'd need console commands to add it. I don't know how to get it on vendor lists.

Open it with notepad or notepad++

they look hideous and not in a good way
