Formerly Starfarer.

I managed to recover two XIV Legions. How do I outfit them?

With cute coats

I love being a salvager.

Hypervelocity drivers for frontal, and big fuckoff missiles and bombers for when their shields are down. That's how i do it and it works pretty good.

How do I play

Controller

Find the npc in a debris cloud in the same sector to hand it in. Rewards a 1 of a kind remnant ship.

Ahh, i see thank you user. I fucked off the sector the moment i killed the remnants.

Meow

What

MEOW

Wtf are those ships? From a mod?

Silence

No... not a mod...

>using the most op carrier in the game
Why?

>mod
Idiot, check the wiki

I got 2 saves, both lvl 47 and I have never seen for example the top left ship or the yellow/orange/turquoise ships.

If you ever get a heavy missile pod.
Use either Squall or the Heavy Reaper one

What does mothballing actually do?

WHERE THE FUCK DO I FIND ANTI-MATTER BLASTERS? I EVEN SUCKED UP TO THE TRI-JEWS BUT THEY ARE ALL FRESH FUCKING OUT

Of course it's a mod you chucklefuck

you don't waste supplies on ships you mothballed, and they don't get broken

Holy shit, a straight answer, finally. Thanks.

TRIPLE SIX, FIVE, FORKED TONGUE

Here's a WIP, it's kinda awful, i threw it together in like 30 minutes and didn't polish much.

The spikes and hull segments are all meant to be individually destroyable. Obviously I need to remove weapon mounts and clean the model up

I'm also still working on a shadowyards and midline variants but I kind of lost motivation since there's no way I'd be able to code a mod in the way I want. Basically I wanted to add a limit of one superweapon built at any time per faction, to avoid the unfun clusterfuck that is fighting half a dozen or more hubships at once. and add a few other limitations that aren't really worth mentioning

This falls in the same category as the guy who had 5 maxed out chars in wow and didn't know he could destroy useless items from his inventory.

What happens in the game if you destroy all the factions?

you go bankrupt

Redpill me on large missile slot options. Which ones are worth and which aren't

The same thing that happens when you reach friendly with all the factions. You get a dialog, and can then continue playing.

>You get a dialog, and can then continue playing
user that's a nex feature not vanilla.

Is this game hard to get into? I love space ranger hd and was thinking of buying this since it seems similar
Also dunno if I should bother with mods for my first run

Just use Sseth's key and see if you like it. Mods aren't necessary, vanilla is fine tho you'll need to tweak some files to avoid memory-related issues.

do bother with mods
install vayra's sector and nexerelin at least, those make factions actually do shit like diplomacy and add a lot of content into the game such as quest/bounty chains which vanilla lacks
for quality of life, install speedup mod and autosave mod
then grab some factions on top, the ones usually recommended are diable avionics, imperium, outer rim alliance, and blackrock driveyards
maybe install underworld and luddic path enhancement if you want your pirates/space jihadis to be a bit less anemic

don't listen to vanillafags, despite an amazing foundation the game's bare in terms of content and gets boring fast

Turn off Varya Sector's factions unless you want shit like the Capitalist Pigs and Communist Cloud in your game, though.

So the author wasn't shitposting when he said there is communist propaganda in his mod? Or is it made in good fun?

There’s a general, go away.

Oh shit, it's the thread police!

He's not shitposting. Worse poison is in his commentary on faction relationships and the tips, though.
That's right, a fucking Smash thread died for this.

I am fucking retarded and cannot do the final fight in the tutorial.
How are you meant to win against that many ships when you have fuck all, no supplies and no cash to repair the ships you go and find?

There's small minifactions of space-communists, space-capitalists and so forth that spawn on the outer edges of the sector with colonies. The communists are based on a meme about this guy who complained about hyperspace storms as "communist clouds that steal all your CR". In my experience they tend to make decent target practice.

You can remove tips, change bounties back to default and modify his factions and ship description.

How do i prevent the HEGEMONY from raiding my colony and removing my CONSENTING AI cores. It happened when i was all the way across the galaxy and unable to get back in time to use my fleet to prevent them.

The guy's a legit commie even if the faction's a joke. That's why I pointed to his tips and commentary as the worst of it. Leave on what you want regardless, user, that's your business.

top left what mod

only use 1 core

Fuck capitalist pigs am I right comrade? XDD ))))

>bribe inspectors or blast them

So theres nothing i can do from across the galaxy. Would be real neato if i could send them a bribe without direct contact.

Delete the mod's tips.json to remove the propaganda. Tweak the included VAYRA_SETTINGS.ini to remove the commie factions. After that you'll maybe see one or two commie ship skins in bounties but they'll not exist as a whole.

you can bribe them across the galaxy

Arsenal expansion. It adds a new faction called the 9th battlegroup that's hostile to everyone else. Some lost pre-collapse expedition that decided to colonize a star system and they became completely autarchic.

pretty neat(outside commies who spawn little earlier)

>Girl

I never colonize, user

they start spawning just at later date

How do you intend getting through shields once out of 6 sabots?
Although you'll be 0 cr by then with SO but not hardened subsystems.

I'm doing a high-tech/tachyon only fleet so shield are a problem, which is why literally every ship in my fleet is loaded with sabots.

AI wastes missiles like complete retard, you need reliable and sustainable anti-shield damage, especially for ship you pilot yourself. Put railguns or needlers there.

I forgot to mention I don't actually fly the ship. I control an Aurora, but the railgun is a good idea. Especially in a fleet low on anti shield.

how the FUCK do I appoint an Alpha Core as a governer?

i dont understand how you could lock yourself out of hightech by raiding trijews

Will the penis inspections stop if I genocide Hegemoniggers

You can dodge the pirates entirely by reading their pattern and going dark before emergency burning when needed. Read the description, you don't actually need to defeat the pirates, you only need to activate the gate to let the Hegemony fleet through. The pirates auto flee when that happens

just attack inspection fleets with transponder off & ident unaware

alternatively alter config for inspection frequency

I want to go on a big tour around the galaxy, surveying and scavenging, but avoiding fights. What's a good fleet? Don't know if I should look for an Atlas or some other huge ship
Got around 500k, also a nanoforge I can sell, if they aren't THAT rare

Can't find it there.

Oooof user, dance in and out of the pirate base orbit. It even tells you in game to try and separate the fleets. They go down easily separately. After that you can do what ever tf you want. The remaining ships will actually run away from YOU if you bully them like that.

The factions need a rework/refining, as it stands they are too archetypical (Ludd as generic religious backwards group, Tri-Jews as big cold corp group, Hegemony as the defacto "The Man"/police group etc) or flavorless and bland (League especially and Diktat for the most part).

They need more lore, more story/unique missions and more unique ship/weapon designs (Hegemony and OH SHIT I'M FEELING IT being the only factions that really excel in this area)

Tachyon and Burst PD, also some needlers on the universal slots

Is tech mining worth doing on anything other planets with "excessive ruins", like planets with few or no ruins?

No.

Heavy Industry it is then

>Reginald Soi

It's worth doing for one month, if you don't mind spending a bit of money.
The first month's worth of goods from tech mining are significantly boosted. I got an alpha core even from scattered ruins, so it's definitely worth it. Then you can just sell it and build whatever you actually want.

What's the refund rate for destroying buildings?

So should I bother recovering (D) ship?
or should I always buy brand new ship?

If you get your hands on a free lambo with damaged seats, will you take the lambo, or will you buy a new prius instead?

Ds are cheap to upkeep and recover so theyre great filler in your fleet.

depends on the ship and the D-mod it got, for example, you don't care if you get structural damage on carriers, hell some of them might even be better since they give reduced upkeep

yeah but you are talking about a lambo with broken engine, smashed windshield, missing wheels and sometime also chunk of the body

Then stick a Pilum LRM rack on it, you'll use it as long range support.

If I increase my max fleet size above 30, does that apply to enemy fleets as well?

Been playing vanilla for a while now, is there a modpack you would recommend?

With Nex the regular factions do that, so there's not much benefit.

We need a sex mod where all the missile sprites are some form of flying dildos with thrusters.

Adds a bunch of mechanics, focused on diplo and making factions more active.

And now for the faction packs. I would say don't activate too many at once, or else you won't be able to appreciate what they each bring to the table. My favorites:
>Neutrino
>Imperium
>Dassault
>Diable Avionics

Blackrock is also highly regarded, but it's not my thing.

They just need more unique ships.

How do you guys feel about mods like Vast Expanse and Grand Sector that increase the number of systems and the size of star systems, respectively? Do things feel too big/crowded, or do they compensate well for when you have added a lot of factions to the game?

It's all just randomly generated and feels a lot less cozy imo. I think the Sector is a perfect size.

What do you mean?

I think they're cool, but I also hate really long journeys in the game because stocking up on supplies is such a pain, what with having to hit several stations to actually get what I need. Then there's the storms that are just annoying, even with solar shielding and the appropriate skills.

I think Active Gates can help compensate for that if you don't care about lore.
The issue is that having tons of factions messes with the random gen around the newly added faction systems, even if they're on the fringe. So things end up comparatively barren.

Just have them sit at a safe way-point until your capitals roll up.

>Kadur Remnant

I don't see the Kadur lore being anything about adoping babyfucker Muhammad's religion and then going on an invasion and enslavement spree across the Universe in his name. The story rather portrays them as anti-kebabs similar to Serbs except the Serbs lack unity these days and are soibois compared to their ancestors.

depends
If you have a brain and time them well yeah, but it's generally inferior as a sustained fire large energy weapon

They aren't for dps, but for armor piercing, EMP, range and hitscan. If you don't have kinetic weapon for getting through shields along with them tach lances are unusable against enemies that matter like remnants.

>It's the carriers rushing forwards and battlecruisers backing off episode where the carriers refuse to listen to your orders of fucking falling back and your cruisers with aggressive lieutenants don't want to go forward

the most limiting and unfun thing about the game is how little control in a fight you have and how retarded the AI can be at times, not having formations is simply dumb

like watching your bomber carriers that have no weapons with a fighter strike order, go and try to ram a fucking star fortress

Try list special or list specials in the console. Cathedral might have a unique blueprint ID.

Tried that. It does not. I tried the same things with Paragon as a test, doesn't work either.

Newfag here, the AI didn't have its logistics side worked out by the devs? Fuel and supply management is some easy shit to configure, they don't have to restock at stations by taking from the reserves that the player would use, just auto-restock out of thin air while only having the correct effect on the prices as economic impact. That would actually also be a good mechanic for players to analyze hints of a major fleet passing by and restocking.

>high tech gets three(3) capitals
>low tech gets two(no those hackjobs dont count)
>midline just has the one conquest
Midline Carrier Capital when?

Yeah that's escorting. 70% of the time, the escorting ships sit beside the escort target and do nothing while eating incoming fire like candy. It's not the same as following behind the thing into a fight.

Which is what I end up doing, but it's retarded that you have to tell a fucking cruiser, "hey, don't run face-first into this giant death station when the stuff that can actually handle its damage output are a million fucking miles behind you."

I use the escorts as cover while I vent, they aren't aggressive, but they give me covering fire from fighters and missiles, and give my capital a chance to vent more frequently. With their support I end up breaking many fleets capitals and carriers with this method. Sometimes I just give a destroyer to each capital, carrier and cruiser, and let them do their own thing. Works like 95% of the time.

Embrace her beautiful ugliness user. She's a pretty pew pew, squal missile spammer.

Yup. It's also why I barely field destroyers past the early game since I can't trust them to not be suicidal retards who try to 1v1 capitals, but I also can't give them a useful order unless I wanna give myself unlimited command points and micromanage them. Might be a slight exaggeration, but they're definitely irritatingly dumb.

The escorts usually just die retardedly when I assign them. They do better when I don't give them any orders at all, star fortress suicide aside.

They're the Ottoman Empire. They're not the actual Turks, nor the Turkish/Arabic army that destroyed Byzantium, but the Arab-Turk empire that sat around threatening smaller nations and fucked each other in the ass for over 400 years.

>They're not the actual Turks, nor the Turkish/Arabic army that destroyed Byzantium, but the Arab-Turk
Why do /his/lets always think this

So about Nexerelin, I've barely started my colony, currently on 2 planets and immediately built up general defenses on both, but a [REDACTED] raid party showed up recently with 4 fleets, what fucking do? Let them shove their data dicks up my ass for a while until I get my defenses up, or are there alternatives?

>They're the Ottoman Empire.
How are they the Ottoman Empire if their lore doesn't have them following a babyfucking warmonger prophet's philosophy of war of invading random worlds and kidnapping their children to brainwash them into parts of the collective which are from time to time sent back to kill their own blood if needed?
>they're not the actual Turks
The actual Turks are still Turkic, and all Turkic tribes were subservient to Mongols and effectively doing the same shit the Ottomans were except with worse body odor about them and more stationary armies.

>/his/lets
The Turks are race of Asian steppe nomads, very similar to Mongolians. The invasions of Byzantium had a Turkish leadership, but most of their troops were sourced from settled Muslim areas, so it was mostly Arabs and Persians. However, once they had settled in, they slowly interbred until the Turkish nobility had blended with the majority Arab citizenry so that the modern Turk from Turkey has very little actual Turkic blood in them. Sort of like how Hungarians (closest to Slavs) were ruled over by Magyars (an Altaic people) when they first came to the area, but the rulers slowly blended into the populace until there was no difference.

>How are they the Ottoman Empire if their lore doesn't have them following
They follow a notIslam same as the Luddics, it's just militaristic and not anti-tech.
>The actual Turks are still Turkic
Yes, there's a reason I was referring to Ottoman Turks there, to distinguish that I'm not talking about the Turkic nomads. There's very little Turkic blood left in the Turkish.

It's a kitbash of the Celestial Circle hubship, not a battlestation.

Just say that the Kadur are Jews while the Luddics are Muslims. Dear lord. As for putting Slavs and Jews in the same basket of suffering over a thousand years of either west or east trying to genocide them, that's valid, except unlike Jews the Slavs were pretty well received by Byzantium with the exceptions of Bulgarians always trying to go Imperial.

Solar Shielding bro, you won't regret it.

user, click on the inspection notification, then hit the Avert button, which will allow you to instruct your colony on how to deal with it. You can order them to resist it, which sparks a conflict and makes the faction hostile. You can also order them to comply, which means byebye cores and rep. Or, you can bribe, which can cost between 200k to a few million BTC.

Also I'm not sure why you think I'm criticizing Slavs. The Ottomans treated them like absolute shit, the Janissary nonsense in particular was indefensible.

You mean like what happened with Ottomans?
Janissary were kidnapped children and brainwashed, but they were also given higher status than actual Turkic citizenry with fuckbig pensions, lands, industries, and freedom to fuck any Turkic woman they see.
400 years of such policy and it's not surprising Ottomans were fucked from inside out, especially since Slavs can't into economics and management without shitting blood in the process and yet here are Ottomans who have a phobia of their own tribes putting more trust into Janissary and stuffing them into these positions.

Man o man it's almost as though ruling parties have connections and utilize illicit channels to perform certain actions and upsetting their access to them will get you shitlisted.

Also the Ottomans fell to corruption and stupidity, they had basically dropped out of the technological race and were content to sit on their laurels. The fact that the Ottoman Arabic-Turks treated both the Arabs but especially the Slavs like shit was just what caused the killing blow, if they had been less of a shitshow they would have been able to resist the rebellion, but they were and they couldn't. There were some small attempts made to pacify Christians right before the war, but it was too little too late by then.

What is the best Tanker?

Uranium :^)

Choosing a counter-religion as an answer would be interesting. Get some Mechanicum going up in that bitch.

Prometheus. Tankers, Transports and Haulers aren't really complex, the various classes exist mainly for budget and fleet size reasons. Keep yourself outfitted for your needs, having one ship of the next biggest class is superior to having two of the smaller class in regards to upkeep cost, but obviously if you don't need two of the smaller class but only one then stick with that. Most people by endgame run with 2 Prometheus tankers since that's enough gas to get from one end of the sector to the other even with capitals and a full fleet, but obviously if you increased fleet size or have mods that've added new civilian ships things will be more complex.

This was a huge problem for the Byzantines too, anyone who had enough sense to maybe stop the Turks or forge an alliance with western Europe inevitably ended up dead. There's always some faggot who wants to ruin everything for everyone.
>Not really "right before the war", the Tanzimat Fermanı, for example, was a law that was supposed to be passed in 1839 making all equal, and there were multiple attempts at secularization and technological advance previously.
Ah, but those were all failures. Nothing really improved for the Slavic (and Greek) Christians until right before they rebelled. Even the enslavement of their children continued for a depressingly long time. The smarter Ottomans saw long before that they'd need this, but the morons wouldn't let them fix anything. Only once the empire was carved up did Ataturk finally manage something, but only for Turkey itself and morons in Turkey today are trying to undo even that.

>Ah, but those were all failures.
Yeah, unfortunately.
>Even the enslavement of their children continued for a depressingly long time.
Honestly that was probably because of the Janissary niggers threatening the Sultans, it's a shame the Janissaries held so much power, when they could have easily been kept in check if there was some rival group for them to fight against, or if the Sultans tried to keep them in check instead of ignoring their growing power.

They should've never done the Janissary thing, all they did was recreate the Praetorian Guard, who if you know about Rome you know they fucked with politics horribly. Hell they did it even worse, because stealing and indoctrinating their sons create a good share of the resentment the Slavs had. It's not even allowed in Islam to enslave a dhimmi who is paying the jizya, so from a religious perspective the Ottomans were in the clear wrong, not that they ever cared about religion except as a political tool.

Those are pretty easy to miss unless you take your sweet time to look.

Unless it deals heaps of damage upfront (tach lance, autopulse, mining blaster) or has specialized roles (HE beam, paladin pd), energy in general is mediocre. No damage bonus means you're killing yourself at the same pace as your target.

Exploration missions
Take contracts
Buy low sell high

hunt pirates and luddic path bases, do bountys until they start fielding like 10 capitals, try to clear all the medium/low danger REDACTED sectors you find for early AI cores, sell the gammas to the Tri-yarch, keep the betas and alphas for your colonys

Exploration is too fucking expensive. I have to burn through like 700 supplies if I go explore some shit because there are storms everywhere, and my colony is getting attacked by pirates.

I currently have gammas on my industry and shit in my colony. Should I really just sell them for a quick buck?

Just go into a bar and nod to the concerned man sitting at a table.

betas are much better, alphas give a big bonus depending on wichever building its assigned to and can be assigned as governors (they have all colony skills maxed), gammas only purpose later on is to be turned in for money desu

go to the tavern in your colony and there should be some guy that when spoken to will give you the location of the pirate base wich is targetting your system, this works for the luddic path aswell but for those you have to pay 10k to get their location, clear the base and they should fuck off for a while

I love the Onslaught!

Am I crazy or do Pather/Pirate bases upgrade and get stronger you leave them alone?

most of the times they get battlestations instead of the shitty fortresses the pirates get, i've seen some bases with lvl 1 stations but its rare, you gotta be prepared to deal with battlestations, carriers with Cobra/khopesh bombers work amazingly against them, but you are gonna need a few capitals to take the shields down and do the tanking

I initially hated them. However after sticking Locusts on the front and gauss/HVDs/ion beams on one side it became a surprisingly capable long range support capital that can easily knock out shields and weapons while the locusts clear out anything smaller than a cruiser. All while staying comfortably out of range of enemy fire thanks to its speed. Still doesn't get as many kills as my Paragon but it likes to quickly swing in behind enemy ships, where they're forced to either focus on the Conquest or the Paragon. Lose-lose for the enemy.

No, but Paragon has the easiest time of it because it's ridiculously OP (by design).
You'll definitely want a lot of PD and fighter support regardless though. Kinetic and ionic weaponry will also help.

you suck ass

probably, i had 3 and 2 astrals and i still had some issues with some redacted ,mostly the ones with 3 or 4 battleships, also if they spawn with 5 autopulses you are in trouble, still i was able to kill them constantly with 2 onslaughs, my odyssey a legion and a conquest i just grabbed randomly and the rest were herons equipped with Cobras, Redacted are really, really weak against fighters and bombers since their only defenses are they own drones and when you kill them they are helpless in defending themselves from them, you can also try to use those Thunder heavy interceptors on your herons as they disable ship weapons and systems really easily, great for disabling the REDACTED battleships, just don't except them to deal damage

Praise Ludd
Glory to SO

The reason I dont like it is because its a broadside cruiser that has a pretty weak broadside. Like yeah you can load up the sides with anti shield weapons, and then what? You cant turn to face them because manuverability is nonexistent. With the paragon or onslaught I can alphastrike from the front and bring down a conquest shields in 1-3 volleys, while they cant bring enough firepower to bear to even dent half my shields.

just make them yourself bro

it literally has special system to turn 180

really? Always check civilian market as they always spawn at the bottom of the list no matter their price.

Yeah, but its on a cooldown and you can just wait for it to use it before engaging. Its not a bad ship by any measure, it just doesnt keep up as well as the others.

that's some coded behavior the creator of the game added to ships in these battles, not sure why tho

this is why its always a good idea to make sure the system you are colonizing has several planets since patrol HQ/military bases/high commands work independently from each other so they each spawn their owns set of patrols that can and will help the other closeby patrols when they are able, this basically makes it so you don't have to constantly defend your system from raids as such as the amount of patrols is so massive they'll just tear appart anything that comes close to your colonys

I think it is lifted straight.
And that's good, portraits for noname npcs there were great.
