Oculian Armada

Author: EI and Protonus

Rough Lore:

      An old ruin of the old sector wars has been reawaken from its dormancy, an antique AI previously built with the sole purpose of preparing sustenance to its former masters. Arrived, as a powerful collective of marketing calculations, reborn as an industrial robotic faction for its well-known purpose, to manufacture a produce at unusual quantities to sustain what is believe what humanity could have asked for, cookies.


Original Lore:
Spoiler
"All I wanted is an army of small, deliberately annoying bug-like crafts that simply crawl up on your ship in your sleep."

Masters of salvage, miniaturization and drone technology, the Oculian Berserks are a product of a reluctantly irresponsible AI experiment built with the intention to delivering its promising exports in the farthest reaches of the sector as efficiently as possible.

"Sure, some spaceships that can wallop enemies by sucking their blood with tiny needles yet those enemies can swat these things like flies. But nothing is more intimidating than an large swarm of flies appearing right around the corner waiting for some big guys- I mean, big sacks of deliciousness."

With little human-like control and amassed amounts of artificial computers in the line of their ships, the Berserks can stand in large numbers to fight against their threats compared to regular human ships.
[close]


Featured:
      The Oculian Armada is set to overly fill the role of Low-powered, High-tech theme with the cheapest Energy/Missile weapons at their disposal. Low OP, low maintenance and low command costs allow Oculian ships to be sent in combat enmasse with little punishment to the player's economy.

      These ships test the boundaries of the meta on how a good shield and speed are a crazy powerful combination and how carrier spamming impacts the direction of the fight no matter how fragile the ships can be. Or at least just see what it feels to play a very fast moving horde of cookie selling psychopaths or get steamrolled by one.

Requirements:
- As of now, it runs free. Probably.

Strengths:
Weaknesses:

Totally unofficial development goals of the Arc Mother:
- Complete descriptions.
- Balance and tweaking. Probably won't.
- There might be giants.

Frankly, a guy told me that if I ever worked for you as partner, but I don't see anything negative about making new ship designs. I might actually make a few ships for you, but I can't guarantee that you might like it.

My friend here actually did her ship building herself. Which is pretty... well... pretty.

It appears neither of us aren't capable of making a starsystem of our own despite copying the vanilla coding. Mostly leading to a Java-based error.

Which is unfortunate. Re-posting the Red mod without the plugin active.

Well, I better get to work on the new patch, are probably be working already despite the patch.

Sadly, my office computer doesn't normally allow the game to start, I have to be honest. Which is one reason why I have some balancing issues to work with... Perhaps I should stop resolving mod sequencing when I made changes with it.

Yeah, in general, most people don't bother reading what the Op says anyway, they see cool ships, then they look for the download button, having a lot of spoliers dosn't do anything other than keep things overly organized for the authors own benefit.

If said ships are individually spoilered in class spoiler in ship spoiler in mod spoiler, these "most people" won't even see them. Protonus, why don't you just have one spolier for your mod and inside everything's visible but a second for all the visuals at once, and maybe a third for the changelogs?

Well, at first I thought it would be cleaner, but I never thought the ships to be seen would be so in demand. And it's because some of them are just really that big.

I guess I should remove the spoilers almost entirely.

By the way Protonus, should we expect you to eventually try to balance your mod or will this stay that way? In the SS tier list, you said they were around tier 1-3. Personally i think they are closer to tier 0, aka nearly impossible to balance, especially the red ones. The absurd amount of large mounts will make them unplayable in the campaign, unfortunately.

Personally i think they are closer to tier 0, aka nearly impossible to balance, especially the red ones. The absurd amount of large mounts will make them unplayable in the campaign, unfortunately.

For Red, you should ask that to EI personally. The designs themselves are so fragile to the point a few shots can already kill them, it's just that the AI (in Vanilla) is just so focused on killing drones that they normally pick on them instead of their hosts despite the Chimera's health already worth about a single fighter, which is not my expectations from EI, so yes. I'll go talk to her when she's on.

The mounts themselves, on the other note, is built that way, as she wanted, but normally I advised her to reduce the damage output of the ships significantly, so the Ordnance points are the main target for the said damage output reduction, which leads to weakening the Berserk-inclined weapons so that they should be compatible enough to fill the slots for those weapons. We are aiming the point that the Berserk weapons should only be equippable to Berserk-faction ships while non-Berserk weapons are incompatible to these Berserk ships, if there would be a limiter code for it, it would be very appreciated.


For Blue, it is my plan to get the balancing correctly. Right now, most ships capital ships are now more or less than capable of walloping a single Paragon off their plating (since the AI in the simulator shows so they barely even know how to manage a freaking shield), while it takes a lot longer to kill said Paragon with cruisers, I'm planning to rig the ships according as semi-endgame, probably, all I just need now is the coding for the market in order to regulate the Protonian Ships, since they are supposed to be at the near-edge top secret tech.

Although, I did reference the ships with the Vanilla units before releasing the Blue mod, so it wouldn't be a problem for either I should buff or nerf them.

Personally i think they are closer to tier 0, aka nearly impossible to balance, especially the red ones. The absurd amount of large mounts will make them unplayable in the campaign, unfortunately.

I can't believe you even considered my ships impossibly difficult.

Blame the AI for shooting the babies and not the mommy ships! )o)

I hope I get this right.

I'm planning to reduce the OP count on all of Red ships and requirements of all its inclined weapons, and make them virtually unsellable (higher than tier 3). I might probably turn all the weapons into Built-ins but I'm not quite sure if it's going to be fun-worthy of. Since Red is planned to be a monster faction after all.

As a bonus, I plan to make hullmods specifically for Red for variation. Since I realized that the current hullmods are solely responsible for the unusual increase of ordnance points which I should have paid attention to begin with.


Blue is still under my balancing check, and it's looking better than I expected, thanks to the new guide that just so happens to made right in front of me. All weapon angles and arcs should be in correct order, weapons are now in-line with the current version.

Some de-saturation is also been done.

And the current patch doesn't seem to heavily affect the mods at all, so it'll be a pretty smooth time to get the patching probably by the end of the week.

Alright so I did a quick modification to one of your Red sprites to put a spotlight on some of the issues with it.
In specific the Red sprites are insanely over-saturated red color wise to a degree that is eye searing, rather than looking like a "candy" color this is more effective in an artistic point of view.
Also some geometry modifications, lighting changes and a minor paint pass to show shadows, highlights and form.
Starsector lighting comes in from the top slightly to the front and I respected that, bridge is ostensibly the highest point as logic with carriers may dictate.

(http://i.imgur.com/w4QcGEm.png)

Also this is a one off, don't try to con me into doing your art, thanks.

Me, I don't.

Actually, I find it appreciated that you have to do something for EI. And it's quite apparent the graphics should follow a less saturated state, which I just did before the Blue release.

I could use this as a reference when new Oculian ships/modifications are passed on to me. In the mean time, I'll keep that and throw it in to the mod. ;D

Of course, it's her you should be careful of.


Edit: It's a clear, she granted the changes. Barely.

And gosh. Elizabeth is going to be a handful.

She is not going to help me in this project, despite the fact she's been throwing her graphics at me.

The color is definitely better, much more comfortable to the eye.

For the weapons, i don't think it's possible for some ships to mount some faction weapons only. The easy way would be to make them built in but then again, it limit the customization and the fun (laser boats can get quite boring after a while).

The ideal way of fixing the gun problem would be to cover some of those mounts. You can still add medium or small mounts on top of them later if needed. Something like this (just an example).

But even outside of the weapons mounts, there's still quite a few issues. Huge number of launch bays, huge burn-speed, incredible shield-efficiency... Plus the drones, while i like the idea, the AI tends to have troubles with those. Perhaps for only one or two tanking oriented ships? It will have to be dealt with eventually anyway.

The blues, while not as broken, still have a few issues too. But i'm sure you'll find most of the problems yourself now that DR posted his modding guide.

In Blue, I have, and is becoming much less than I realized and its something I'm looking forward to once the rest of the manual are set up and because of the previous launch I had already made me stop making OP equipment. I have the new changes in my computer (and also my backup) with the mounts re-angled and re-arced properly and I'm going to launch it soon as I am done with the Red.

For Red, EI finalizes the ships should be deemed difficult to capture, as well as its weapons (they will set to tier 4), despite of their durability balances with the massive carrier tradition, so instead of focusing in the balancing of the weapon mounts, the ordnance points (both ships and weapons) will be reduced to minuscule level.

Still, I'm open for changes. It's just that she can be a little demanding on what she wants.

And... I did all the work. Terrific.

(Red) Glad you like it. Hopefully this should make the Berserks true to their numbers and not to the amount of weapons you can slap on a single ship. I found out the horrific results when I tried the Red out alone myself. Each ship is presented with the number of weapons to compare with their launcher bays in order to make the odds of managing the battlefield against them look even.

If you see a large horde of Super chimeras, expect fighters to follow. If you see a horde of Chimlies, nothing smaller comes after them. EI actually made the new ships with more mounts just in time for the balancing to settle, which is actually quite useful to put odds and ends to them.

      • At a cost of Flux Venting time.
    • Fixed new ships without Protonian Hullmods.
    • Myrtenaster drone buffed.

Version 0.1.2a:
  • Aligning Ophiuchus weapon groups. Hate to see it firing all of its weapons when defending itself against 1 missile.
  • Mollusc shield range buffed from 100 to 150.

Note: If you guys have any issues with the mod, you may direct them to me. Ophiuchus is just too darn large to become perfectly stable to have correct amount of guns.


Edit: Guys, I'm really sorry about the constant updates, this is for real this time.

    Have you checked the mods if they were in alphabetical order? Since the mod list usually works that way. Either that or you should try to rename the "mod_info" file in the respective mods and see if they match.

    Hmm... Setting the version number to Minor for the Protonians seems to make quite an impact to the download count, despite the fact the patch is Campaign Integration.

    I'll write that information down and make sure to post Big numbers if Big features are added.

    I'll make a quick look on the Blue mod and give the two a quick patch.

    Also, EI. Let them buy your stuff, it's been long since for anyone conveniently places an advanced thriving faction in front of the spawn sector.



    Checked, I didn't see any problem when loading up my system, probably has something to do with spawns though.

    Got it, Background5 is the problem, I'll just store the original to my mod just in case.

    I've noted that there's apparently a modified Tactical Laser from the Blues, which mentions slightly increased range with increased damage/higher flux cost. Considering the vanilla range is now 1000, and SS+ range is now 800, that's no longer accurate.

    Note: The heavily increased supplies costs also bumps up cost in other systems, such as Jangala having supplies costing 730 credits each.

    I'm going to make the factions more likely hate-able to others in order to refuse the significant amount of trade exchanges within the game.

    And the Tactical Laser buff will also come soon, possibly to all Protonian Laser weapons.

    One way is to lower the size of the planet's market. 1-3 will barely affect the market. 4-5 is average, 6 is a significant producer, and anything above that is an economic powerhouse. A planet's population is also a major influence.

    You also need to balance what economic effects you add to the planet (And remember that they stack). I can't really tell what needs to change without looking at the econ file itself though.

    But if the lack of supplies are the only issue, try adding an "autofac_heavy_industry" tag to that planet.

    The market size, for sure, I'm changing it. Turns out the transports get increasingly cumbersome as Protonian fleets started swarming all over the galaxy cluster providing resources needlessly to anyone in the proximity.

    The Auto-factories, on the other note, still requires a heap of resources as I observed the Oculian star systems with them. The economy is still high. I'm making adjustments to it.

    • Version 0.5.4:
      • Due to excessive inflation among the stars, Protonian Technologies is now hated by everyone with exception of the Independents and Pirates.
      • And, Supply prices have returned to normal levels. (hopefully)
      • Protonians have released the Aoba-class Destroyer, a ship dedicated to carry a powerful Coilgun that disables enemy weapons in distant range, but with a long delay.
      • All Protonian Tactical Laser and Twin Laser now match Tactical Laser statistics.
      • Mytoselle and Tethlon, the capital planets of the Protonians, now reside production lines to level 7 from 8.
      • Also due to the events that happened, the Bastion-class has received a (slightly) new look.

    Version 0.2.0b:

    • Oculians will now also trade only with the Protonians, restrictively.

    Protonus, having a population size on a planet as 10^9 is... really bad. Especially with that type of planet. It pretty much destroyed the food economy, to 1-5 credits for food.

    From what i heard from DR, population size currently don't have any influence in the game, only market size. For example, SS+ biggest markets are size 6, going above this will start to seriously screw the sector economy.

    The population indicator usually is the same as the market size.  In this case, it probably really is size 9.

    Only 2 planets reached market size at 7, I knew population doesn't affect the economy.

    Love the mod, but I have three complaints. Firstly, both Red and Blue systems are kinda big. This would be fine, but theres only one or two (I think two?) gates, so it takes a hilariously long time to get around. The Blue system in particular I think visually benefits greatly from the size, as it looks really cool, but I think adding more gates or making it a little smaller would be nice.

    Two, Red ordinance points might just be a tad too low. Not sure how low you really want it to be though. The palette in particular seems to suffer from this a lot.

    Third, Red breeze drones aren't actually drones, don't know if that's intended or not. Assuming the fighter wings are the same as the ship system drones, I imagine they shouldn't use crew, but its up to you.

    Some planets tend to be far off, but sure, I'll add more gates to the respective systems and see if they fit.

    Two, Red ordinance points might just be a tad too low. Not sure how low you really want it to be though. The palette in particular seems to suffer from this a lot.

    This is intended, as Oculian ships should be cheap and amassed as its faction is known for it and if I ever raised the Ordnance points, it will probably be inclined to the Hyperion level by then. I actually forgot to the lower the price for the Palette, honestly.

    Third, Red breeze drones aren't actually drones, don't know if that's intended or not. Assuming the fighter wings are the same as the ship system drones, I imagine they shouldn't use crew, but its up to you.

    Tried to, but the game doesn't seem to allow the fighters to becomes virtually pilotless. I tried reducing the requirements of crew 0, but the default system reverts each to 1. Instead, I made the manufacturing replacements for these drones incredibly efficient than standard fighters to reproduce the effect.

    And no, EI, I did not intend to make anything dirty here.

    I like it, looks good. Also, I THINK (I could be totally, 100% wrong) the reason you couldn't get the fighter changes to stick is because the fighters don't have an entry in ship data that I can see.

    Actually, you do, it's a requirement for all ships to have their Hull data placed in to their Excel file. They usually share a folder with the Wing data Excel in there too. (in the "starsector-core\data\hulls" section)

    Which is why regular starships couldn't even get their skeleton crew requirements to 0 either. Since crew normally dictates the Experience of your ship and it's practically a hard-coded requirement.

    I've been playing with the neutrino files, as he/she seemed to have the same problem (fighters obviously called drones) having crew, and I set the min and max crew to 0 in ship data and it seems to have fixed it. There's no ship data entry for the fighters in Oculian, only the ship system varients. I don't know what actually adding them entails, but I might try and see if I can get it working.

    EDIT: Got a frigate to have zero crew as well, just to see if I could.

    EDIT2: Yeah it crashes when I try to add fighter entries to ship data, don't know how to do that properly. But I'm pretty sure thats the problem.

    • Version 0.5.5:
      • Fixed the relation problem from Version 0.5.4, now all other factions other than Independents and Pirates are Vengeful against Protonians.
      • All Protonian major planets have their population and food production conditions reduced.
      • Tetragon Mark 2 has been released.
      • Pentracos receives a new outfit.
      • All Protonian ships that don Red-painted Plates have Akirium Plating, provides High Explosive damage in trade of more Crew Casualties. Only 3 ships have them.
        • Pentracos-class
        • Tetragon Mark 2
        • Aoba-class

    Version 0.2.1:
    • All Oculian Frigates and Fighters have crew capacities set to 0, with the new Drone and Elite Drone mods.
      • Drone Mod, remove the crew cap off weak ships.
      • Elite Drone Mod, increases the characteristics of any ship that is equipped with it, also increases Combat Readiness by 25 compared to standard Drone mods.
    • Fixed Relationship with the player, now currently neutral.
    • Palette price is reduced from 10000 to 5000.





    I've been playing with the neutrino files, as he/she seemed to have the same problem (fighters obviously called drones) having crew, and I set the min and max crew to 0 in ship data and it seems to have fixed it. There's no ship data entry for the fighters in Oculian, only the ship system varients. I don't know what actually adding them entails, but I might try and see if I can get it working.

    EDIT: Got a frigate to have zero crew as well, just to see if I could.

    EDIT2: Yeah it crashes when I try to add fighter entries to ship data, don't know how to do that properly. But I'm pretty sure thats the problem.

    It's all right now. We managed to pull off having fighters and frigates without any crew now. :D

    Actually, it's been done already, although it runs through the Hullmod scripting in order for the Pilotless to work.

    - snip -

    That's odd. The PTgen works apparently in fine to me, since the For Loop is running correctly in my computer. Turning everyone against my faction on "Vengeful".

    Code
            for (FactionAPI faction : sector.getAllFactions()) {
                if (faction != Oculus) {
                    PTech.setRelationship(faction.getId(), RepLevel.VENGEFUL); //HOSTILE

    • Version 0.5.6:
      • Fixed the self-conflicting problem, Protonians ending up fighting each other instead of fighting sieging enemies.
      • Ties between the Oculians and Protonians has ended. Both are vengeful against each other now. This also makes both mods Standalone now.
      • Levitte-class Tank Destroyer has arrived, low amount of weapons but incredible defense.
      • Twin Velocity Driver is set from Kinetic to High Explosive.

    Version 0.2.2b:
    • Red Mod is now standalone, at a cost of being Vengeful against the Protonians.
    • Praetorian Gryphon is now available in the Simulator.



    I didn't like this change (fix) myself, but sadly, EI wants this.

    First time I've seen this mod, and I have to say, I'm glad I'm not the only one on the forums *cough*cough*totally*cough*insane*cough* wait what?

    Anyway, you guys and gals (or should I just say peoples?) You peoples (no that doesn't work...) You _enter thingy here_ (and no i do not believe in the backspace key) (and I like brackets, deal with it) have motivated me to get to work updating my semi-started, somewhat-stable, outdated part-of-a-mod to a playable version (be it an unbalanced and totally ridiculous one). And if Bjorn doesnt show his face soon im going to be the one writing the space gibberish lore, and none of us want that...

    Anywho, I look forward to seeing this mod in action! Goooood luuuuucckkk...

    P.S. Ahh poopnuggets, this seems to read like an ad for my mod, so ill add more praise to... er... make it less obvious xD

    >I lick de colurs
    >Dam dat ship be beg

    I thought I have seen it all, now I have seen more indulgently massive ships then my feeble mind can envision. I am now ascending to a plane of existence beyond comprehension of those that create the enormous, glutted and boundary defying ships.
    I can see the gratuitous ships of billions of pixels wide and it is glorious, my sense of balance has dissipated into almost nothing, my senses have been weighted to a point of almost stillness overloading my processing mind to its limits. My mortal frame teeters wildly as I walk on the dense yet invisible space at my feet, I am thoroughly enlightened as I seek witness to the events of battle undertaking before my very eyes. My vessel breaching the boundaries of human capacity, my movements sluggish and my senses dwindle as the mounting burden on my mind to process the immense objects and blinding lights produced from the glory overloads my memory and senses.

    Then I keel over, my mind seeking refuge from the display and without control my face hits the dense space below, I am greeted with one final thought as my memories of my past life are overwritten with the glorious display of combat.

    The thought although peculiar felt true to the display "java.lang.OutOfMemoryError", all faded to black as my mortal frame crashed.

    That, already made my fingers bleed through thorough inspection of equipment. That ship really has turrets, so much that you can count more than the buttons of your goshdarned keyboard.

    But honestly, I did have fun monitoring the specs. Reminds me of Sins of a Solar Empire.

    EI took the ship from Makina's Art Dump (http://fractalsoftworks.com/forum/index.php?topic=1131.msg151819#msg151819), as Makina himself aforementioned his revision of new sprites, leaving one said sprite to be available to anyone.

    His name is on EI's thank list. And to honor his work, the name Ophiuchus remains on that ship.



    What's even more surprising is that the original ship was 4 times smaller compared to what is redesigned in the Red mod, in addition of 256+ turret mounts.

    She insisted in having the ship in her mod.

    In fact, as she tested it in a low-end computer (about 2 GB of RAM), the ship runs nicely in the campaign, but the ship system drones can be a laggy as the shadowing effects started happening when they launched.

    Although honestly, it does make me mad when I see a ship like this attacking my fleet regardless if I'm using Blue or not. That thing is a monster.

    Don't threaten to remove your mod in response to someone who won't be hurt if you do it! That is often known as "self-injury". (Anecdote: I'll punch myself in the face becuase I got a mean text from a stranger, that'll learn'em!)

    It was simply made for the fun of it, actually. And never to throw it in.

    Since that is the purpose of the mod and the game, is it not?


    Of course, if you don't to see this mod anymore. Then I'll remove Blue completely off the list.

    Whether you made it for fun or not, you modified another author's work and published it in a public space. You're not the first person to make this mistake, but you're one of the first who has hasn't taken the effort to ask for permission after the fact.

    If you had apologised and asked for permission it would likely have been granted. You have not abided by common courtesy or basic manners, let alone legally enforceable copyright laws. If you don't ask permission and you are asked to take it down, then you must take it down otherwise a site moderator will be forced to do it for you.

    Copyright is a serious issue, authors on this site spend hundreds if not a thousand hours or more creating their ship assets, and stealing someone else's pixel art just isn't cricket mate. It is completely disrespectful to community members to be copying their work without their permission. Disrespecting one content author and continuing to flaunt that you take art without permission is tantamount to saying that you believe everyone's work is free for you to use without explicit permission, and you therefore disrespect every artist in this community in your actions.

    I suggest rectifying your behaviour immediately, and removing the infringing ships until such time that permission is granted.

    Unfortunately, I am currently not supporting the updates for the mods this time on, and EI is at her RL works right now doing important stuff.

    My feeling are hurt for something I spent days working on, only to be thrashed out by a random guy who spent longer than I am. And honestly, it makes me feel like not working on the mod only because of it, due to that joke ship I just wondered to squandered for fun.

    I'm sorry. I just felt I had high hopes to be in the community, but now, I don't think this is a good place to be in. I'll probably be gone for 2 weeks or a month before I recollect myself to my feet.


    Although, that doesn't mean that I won't be coming back.

    Everybody take a deep breath.

    I've noticed people are a bit on edge. Probably paying more attention to who uses what assets and whether they have permission from the original author or not, than usual. And reactions are likely a bit stronger because of it. I am sure MesoTroniK is just trying to make you understand that you can not use his work without permission. He is not trying to attack you personally. No-one is, as far as I can tell.

    All you have to do, is make sure you remove assets that use other people's work without their permissions. Next time, just ask permission from the original author before posting something publicly on the forums. I understand how the sudden barrage of comments made you feel "attacked" and may have put you on the defensive, but there's really no need to be taking the dramatic route. We all welcome you and your efforts at creating a mod! I for one, hope you'll stick around.  :)

    Taking some time away from the forums, if you're feeling hurt, might be a good and mature call, though.

    Yeah but thats the *** problem is he WAS attacked...and it ISNT their props and ideas by law so they really have no say if he uses it or not...wouldnt have bothered me if he didnt ask me..i would just ask him to tell me nicely but this community is falling apart like Firefly after season one...at each others throats for anything....I often feel like they are as bad as the faction they built...after each other.....hell when I came on this forum with a kind open minded person I was immediately and completely smacked down by mediocre comments and smacktalk all because they cant take criticism...because in todays society the truth has been labeled as BAD and WRONG....like a lot of these mod developers feel threatened that their work was not perfect. So no he should feel sad...sad that he just came on nice terms trying to fulfill his modding dreams to have it crushed by someone because he used a pixel that was owned by someone.....seriously if they want to be dicks then maybe they should play Eve Online...might suit them better v.v...

    No need to be throwing vague accusations around. At the end of the day yes the people involved were perhaps a bit harsh dealing with patronus' use of the sprites. I too am a spriter (not a particularly great one mind, but a spriter nonetheless) and I wouldn't mind people in general using my sprites for their mods, why? Because they aren't making money off them, and there's no real way for them to defame my character with them. The only result of them using my sprites in their mod is my personal spriting skill gets more widely known, for bad or ill. How does it get more well known? Because he would give credit for the sprites he used. As long as THAT happens, everything is fine and dandy.

    What is not okay is using someone else's sprites and either claiming the entire thing is your own, or letting people assume that by not giving any credit where credit is due. As long as you do that most people will be happy I should think, and SHOULD be happy. Just to be sure though, unless you're taking sprites from a thread that explicitly says you can use them, then pm the chap about it yeah?

    On topic discussion: Regardless of anything else I do like your color scheme, the blue/yellow contrast might be a bit harsh on the eyes but at least it's eye catching. Get enough of those ships in one place and I might avoid fighting them just so that I can save my eyes from being burned by that eye scorching bright yellow color. One thing I will say is that your ships look very flat, try shading the edges of your ships a bit more so that they look like the edges curve together, rather than fall off on a sharp 90 degree angle.

    While I'm still new to these forums, I feel like there should be a note at the top of Modding Resources reminding people to either ask for permission to use sprites, or give credit to people whose sprites they end up using. Alternatively, just remind the sprite artists to say what they are okay with when they post a sprite (It's okay to modify this as long as I get credit/You can use this if you give me credit, but don't edit it/Ask me before using this sprite/etc). That would help a situation like this from occurring again.

    That's pretty much the issue here: He has been reminded to ask permission and give credits, even if it's afterward, three or four times already but still refuses to do so for some reason. That has bothered some modders that now are asking him to take down the offending sprites! This situation arose many times before but this is the first time someone refuses to simply ask, and just pretend it's for fun and he shouldn't have to comply to what is in fact very real international laws.

    Well, I'm back.

    Got some of the time working outside the game and earned some honest pay along the way.


    The reason I made the large butchered sprite was just for laughs and nobody seemed to take it easy and became unusually sadistic (like EI), but in a gruesome fashion. And no, I DID say "I'm never proud of putting it into the game nor I'm willing to do anything horrible to anyone." And of course, I WILL say thanks and give credit to that person who made that sprite as always, but if someone did call me out for copyright, they should really need to see that fact that these are just mods, no money is being transacted within the premises of this mod or whatsoever.

    I only got a little carried away with the responses only because of one indecent trigger that made me out of my mind. And I have trouble with monitoring two events at once such as this argument and Real Life, cramming with me senseless emotions that would really rip the heart out of me.

    Exposition aside, I just... well, wanted to make a laugh out of what happened and decided not ignore it... hopefully.


    Just a heads up, too. Some updates.

    Thanks to the arguments that got usurped, I got motivated enough to make new changes to ship designs, throwing in my own armor parts reference template. Steadfast was the first, though. Making them share that Starcraft's Protoss and Planetside's New Conglomerate's designs. And yes, I just played Planetside 2 recently.

    These are some of the ships.

    Hey the crazy's aren't dead! Huzah! Also, on the ships Protinus, they look pretty good all things aside. The panling I find is rather... Cumbersome on the biggest ship you've there. It also seems out of place in some instances, a good example of this is the Blocky Fellow. At the back the shading is pretty much non-existent. Either way, it's a good start I'd say.

    Now where'd the red-nutter get off to I wonder....

    For the Red's Arsenal, EI normally prefers Energy weapons above all else, with some inclusion of mini-missile packs that normally involves multiple false AI's in that rushes towards its enemies like there is no tomorrow, but right now, she is trying to plan to make new ones, such as Plasma and probably Flamethrower-like weaponry, but I cannot guarantee it would go well.

    Although, I think the Exeralin plugin is still installed within the Red mod premises, since it did use the other mod plugin data as a template.

    Honestly, the sprites are usually kitbashed, so does mine without a doubt, but thanks to EI's storyline for the faction, it is quite justified for being Tri-Tachyon knockoffs with quite impressively surprising factory technology that allows her ships just simply keep coming at you.

    But take my word for it, she'll raze everything in her way just to get anyone she deemed hating.

    That should make it compatible, yes. (Download Nexerelin and test running it with the mods to be sure)

    Version 0.3:
    • Most of Elizabeth's Large mounts, possibly 8, will be reduced to Small mounts. 4 small mounts will also be removed.
    • Possibility of nerfing Flux Dissipation of all ships.


    I can't tell if I can apply Nexerelin compatibility, since I may have surpassed the time here a little too late. Probably until Version 0.7 comes out, but I'll see what I could do.


    Edit: I also wanted to be sorry about everything I did. Being all "Tony Stark"-ing all over the place, since I thought I would a spot in here, but I don't think I get much considering personal and radically different story. So, no hard feelings. :o[/list]

    I know its been brought up before, but the Protonian and Oculian bases both have extreme levels of commodities, like food at the Protonian base. I understand they dont trade with many people, but when they do it really messes things up. And even when they don't its up to the player not to essentially cheat by buying 1 credit food from Letronne. I really dont think they need have that many commodities.

    This is minor and probably does not matter much now that Starsector updated, but the link for Red in the OP is for version 0.2.3a and not 0.3 that is found on the latest release post here.

    Version 0.4:
    Spoiler
    Quote
    - Updated to support Starsector 0.8a
    - Removed Oculian submarkets from the Berserk Complex on planets.
    - Star system, Atalie Pax, has been revised. Adalie, the Oculian capital, is now a frozen Tundra planet that supports a metallic moon.
    - Built-in Oculus Mod for all ships provides Point-Defense capabilities for Glint and Blita weapons.
    - Energy Feed has a unique sound effect.
    - Ship changes:
       - All ships receive optimum burn with respect to size, from 11 to 8. While Elizabeth has the slowest 7.
       - Oculian Cruisers and Capitals have their fleet point requirements raised.
       - Elizabeth, Parable, Aya, Gryphon (and Praetorian), Basilisk and Ignis replace some of their slots for built-in weapons. In turn, also reducing some of their OP.
       - Ignis has an Extended Missile Rack built-in but has two of its existing missile slots replaced with Shimakaze Missile pod built-ins.
       - Basilisk has been given some EI-love:
          - Increased Flux Capacity and Dissipation from 10000 to 18000 and 950 to 1450, respectively to feed its power-hungry built-ins.
          - Its only two Large Energy Slots are replaced with the Freya cannon built-ins.
          - Has the Integrated Targetting Unit and Expanded Magazines built-ins.
       - All Breeze drone shipsystems have been stripped from all ships that use them.
       - Super Chimera, Geyser and Libra have the Reserve Wing shipsystem.
       - Chimera (ship) now uses Active Flare shipsystem.
       - Aya has several built-in hullmods and has the Targetting Feed shipsystem.
       - Ophiuchus now replaces the Ophiuchus Tick Drones with the Burn Drive shipsystem.
       - Nimbus and Basilisk now use the Oculian Energy Feed shipsystem.
       - Palette has its two small energy slots replaced with missiles.
    - Wing overhaul changes reciprocated:
       - All Oculian fighter drones are built-in wings for their respective carriers.
       - Large ships have free slots to benefit faster refit time from Oculus Module.
       - Praetorian LPC's are very expensive and costs much more OP to equip them.
       - Ticks and Kaleido wings have more Hull and Armor to compensate their high replacement value.
       - Fighter shields produce less noise.
    - Pixel Plus recovers torpedoes by 0.75 of a pair per minute.
    - Shimakaze Missile Pod changes:
       - Have maximum ammo cut in half from 500 to 250.

    Technically, no. The command points (or some other statistic) on Ophiuchus are set so high that it would render the ship almost impossible to spawn, as far I personally understand it.
    EI did want a rare spawn of this, for those who would actually want an unfair boss fight or sadistically ruin a player's day.

    I noticed that one of the capital ships has the same name as the vanilla missile cruiser. IMO you should change the name to something different to avoid confusion. something like "Hiffogriff" or "Griffin", perhaps?

    I don't actually think that the player is able to field a fleet capable of killing it, especially with the immense buffs that fighters have now. It's got what, thirty flight decks? And way too much armor and hull to kill without all ships running out of CR anyway

    To be honest, reducing the flight decks is the first thing I have in mind since the new update, but absurd size of the ship alone overwhelmed the ship editor from changing it, though I'm sorting this mess out by the new patch.

    EI also sent me pictures for the new additions for the faction. One of which has a lot of emphasis on engines.

    I noticed that one of the capital ships has the same name as the vanilla missile cruiser. IMO you should change the name to something different to avoid confusion. something like "Hiffogriff" or "Griffin", perhaps?

    Noted. I've seen the new Gryphon cruiser in the codex and how it works. The Oculian Gryphon should go off with a new name that may provide some emphasis on its role on the next patch.


    Edit: Done.

    I have limited experience with this incarnation of them, but their fighters are very strong from what little I've been able to find.

    Also, Ophiuchus is a wonderful superboss. Any chance to make it a roamer or a sectioned-out boss like stations?

    Haven't played with the ships (yet), but the fighters are quite strong. Very heavy on OP, though. I love the Cancer torp wings. Massed Pixel barrages are killer.

    I don't think they're too powerful on their own, though they are reminiscent to textbook glass cannons by throttling drone wings. I made the carriers fragile enough to be always an effective solution to kill them. With the weak energy weapons on hand, dealing with them up close should be fine.

    Dedicated Picket ships can easily thwart the double digit hull points in drones compared to most wings, though they should come in pairs since drones have a tendency to overwork the point defenses, such as from a Breeze-Cancer combo.

    I have also made some changes with the Red, usually with the shields and how too flexible they became with the ships' movement.

    I think it has something to do with their location, placed below the star map with 6 size capital. I'm working on changing the values but not too high to affect the global market.

    It happened once before, and costs on supplies and fuel inflated to the point where starting new game isn't applicable for any fleet with high maintenance requirements.

    Edit: It should hit somewhere closer to home, since they are supposed to be an invasive faction.

    It's done.

    Adalie and Pax Proper station are now seperate entities, and the capital will supply the starbase resources to build the fleets.

    So, I gave this a try in the name of encouraging newbie modders.

    As lots of other people have said, there are balance problems. Lots of them. Galloping, giant, fun-killing balance problems. Which is okay; everyone starts somewhere, I had my share of persistent issues. Some of these balance problems are conceptual; ship sizes and fighter bay quantities that break the UI.

    I like the idea of really big, obscenely powerful ships; but something like that really needs to be implemented as an NPC module ship. It is flatly unplayable. Worse, it isn't actually fun to play; there's so little difference between autopilot and flying the ship myself. Either way, I just murderhosed anything that came close to me.

    Second, and more serious: your mod crashes. A lot. It's buggy. It's badly buggy. I'm pretty sure it corrupts save files. You need to deal with that, or a lot of other mods, perfectly good, well-made mods, are going to take the blame for you until people finally figure out what's causing it. And that isn't good for anybody.

    Finally, I think you could make an excellent mod out of this. All the base concepts could be reworked and polished to produce a perfectly fun, interesting mod. But I just don't think you're there yet. Please put some work into the stability of your mod, and put some thought into making your ships and weapons more polished and challenging. It's not easy, but I think it would be worthwhile.

    I was actually hoping for someone would give me criticism about how the mod works on other people's perspective and how it affects the core gameplay when this mod shows up. Frankly, I disregarded most of it during my state of un-longing behavior in the past and to no avail become so arrogant that I built the mod without thinking anything else but to put concepts forward and onwards. I can't say how mortified I was realizing the mistakes I did and how it affect me as a person and how this mod actually reflected on what have I been doing.

    Additionally, this habitual issue was persistent since the mod's release on 0.65a, which does led to terrible outcry ever since I left the forums.

    While I can find ways to bring the mod up, I can't say much on how buggy the mod actually is. Most of the script is usually at barebones, most of it originated from the base, and the operating system used is an isolated Windows 7.

    On the gameplay side, the wings are supposedly handled by how plentiful the crew is on a carrier, but since the OBA uses virtually pilotless fighters, the faction simply ignored this flaw as there is no significant code that disallows the launch bay from building more. The Red drones still need some work, especially when the craze for Cancer barrages is already up in the air, which will be addressed by the next few patches.

    I cannot do much on how the AI renders its attack patterns on the wings though, it has been there since the Red introduces attack drone ships as a ship system. Every time a ship is seemingly overwhelmed by fighters, it disregards the host and starts attacking the weak drones aimlessly despite how low the statistics value the fighters had. I could take the shields off them completely and focus on how their weapons are fired or decrease their maneuverability and deal with the ship statistics that controls the flux shield correlating to the weapons.

    All I could wish now is to take the criticism for granted and feel terrible on how I ruined the Red and Blue mods, and myself as a person.

    By the way. I'm also hearing some chatter about the Ophiuchus being broken in general: in terms of statistics, built-ins, size, grammar and pretty much everything else.

    The "grammer" part will be addressed but definitely needs some attention. Proposing in cutting it apart.

    The Aeneas freighter seems way too strong for it's cost. 20k cargo capacity is excessive, I'd bring it down to around as much as an Atlas to be balanced. It's also as well armed as a battlecruiser.

    COMMIT TSUNDERE IN THE NAME OF THE BERSERKERS.

    On a positive note, that name.

    (Edit) - Are the Oculians supposed to have a world or two? They don't show up in the faction directory and neither do any planets they're supposed to have.

    When I started a new playthrough, they didn't have any planets, which I think is odd. Is that due to them not having a rules.csv (Nexerelin) or this invasion update you mentioned in the post before this one.

    The ships are practially alright, I mean they are supposed to swarm so they're pretty fast, have weak armor/hull and kind-of-sub-par-but-not-really weapons.

    The Glint, being the go to can help a bit in PD, while the main problem was finding anything other than average swarmer weapons outside of getting a commision (this makes independents hostile)

    While the main wings (The Breeze Drones) seemingly squashed by PD made by anyone take up the capacity of the replacement rate, which goes down to 30 very fast, which means the wings are almost undeployable (the smartest move for carriers being that Reserve Deployment).

    Strangely, there's a lack of missiles/torpedo's for the Oculians. Aside from the Pixie Torpedo, but other than that, they're restricted to small and large, but I can't find them.

    It indeed takes a bit of time to find the correct ships, but I can't for the life of me find an Amina (I feel this ship calls to me in terms of my overall gameplay.)

    Overall however, I enjoy the Berserks due to them being easy to replace, but still strong enough to give more than average trouble, thanks to those lovely shields. Now, if only I can find that Amina (I keep thinking it was supposed to be called Anima)...

    In the Vanilla setting, they're supposed to be located right below Hybrasil, hidden in somewhere in Deep Hyperspace.

    In Nexerelin, the Red was routinely remove from the Rules since the mod was inactive for nearly 2 years. I've already sent a request to bring it on again.


    The ships are practially alright, I mean they are supposed to swarm so they're pretty fast, have weak armor/hull and kind-of-sub-par-but-not-really weapons.

    They quite are. With these traits, they are essentially a High-tech pirate faction but enjoys the cheap, very stable technology.


    The Glint, being the go to can help a bit in PD, while the main problem was finding anything other than average swarmer weapons outside of getting a commision (this makes independents hostile)

    The level of damage output Oculian weapons are focused at sub-par levels but maintains high efficiency to maximize their use on shields. Although I'm planning to implement more small weapons to give both vanilla ships and the Oculians some variety.


    While the main wings (The Breeze Drones) seemingly squashed by PD made by anyone take up the capacity of the replacement rate, which goes down to 30 very fast, which means the wings are almost undeployable (the smartest move for carriers being that Reserve Deployment).

    There were some rambling from a certain source about the Oculian fighter wings for being too powerful, which resulted to the substantial nerf that was given earlier. If there is enough feedback, I might give the Breezes and some other drones a little notch or two.


    Strangely, there's a lack of missiles/torpedo's for the Oculians. Aside from the Pixie Torpedo, but other than that, they're restricted to small and large, but I can't find them.

    More missile types are planned for the next patch, usually to fill up the roles for the Shimakaze launcher. More Torpedo variants are noted.


    It indeed takes a bit of time to find the correct ships, but I can't for the life of me find an Amina (I feel this ship calls to me in terms of my overall gameplay.)

    Now, if only I can find that Amina (I keep thinking it was supposed to be called Anima)...

    I do believe I put Amina in there for the sake of future factions that will be using "Anima" as a powerful deterrent. Namely by Tri-Tachyons or some overpowerful ship that uses some special heretic magic to protect itself from attacks.

    The other reason for it is being bilingual. In Tagalog "Amin na" means "It's ours/mine".


    Overall however, I enjoy the Berserks due to them being easy to replace, but still strong enough to give more than average trouble, thanks to those lovely shields.

    Thanks a lot for your personal feedback, and also thanks to EI for putting up a faction like this. The Red has been growing on me for some time, and I think it'll be a waste if I don't give it the love it deserved.

    About the Breeze Drones/similar fighters/bombers, it's only just the durability as, while understandable, they die a bit fast.

    But that's where Reserve Deployment and it's magic comes in.

    Reserve Deployment is the bane of all ships that have their armor stripped with anything that has fighter/bomber wings. A constant stream of fighters and bombers arriving to bring ruin to those with insufficient PD.

    Also another question.

    Are the wings purposefully built in to ensure no differential fighter/bomber are put in (eg; Dagger Torpedo Bomber Wing/Xyphos Support Wing)?

    Seems like a smart move on your end, although a faction buff for fighters/bombers would be in order if the built in wings are removed, so that the Praetorian Wings can see use. Also possible OP increase & built-in hull mod for the sweet praetorian wings having very reduced OP usage, compared to wings from other factions (Vanilla or Modded) (eg; Praetorian Breeze wing OP cost reduced by 50 - 80%) so the Carriers can see some use for the weapons, while still having those elites (I may have said too much haha).

    Frankly though, it's your call. I'm fine with the carriers and built in wings as is.

    I already found out the fighters die a little too fast since the Refit Time is lengthened. This was made to compensate the indispensable utility of being drone fighters as piloted-fighters require a numbered crew that is dependable to the player's economy. Although slight adjustment have been made to make them slightly swarmy in their part.

    The Reserve Deployment is, well, reserved to true-ended drone carriers that have less firepower on their own but more on their drone wings. I think this is a good call for them. I may want to put in an improved version of this if it is needed.

    Frankly though, it's your call. I'm fine with the carriers and built in wings as is.

    Somehow, you answered your own question partly. Yes, the drones are supposed to be built-in so that the Oculian ships have room to customize their small OP count with OP-efficient weapons.

    For the Praetorians built-in wings mostly, however, they are restricted only for the Praetorian carriers, since they are already made with built-in mods to match along with their upgraded counterparts. Their higher OP cost suggests for more powerful carriers to carry them.

    Built-in wings are there to keep the ship builds manageable since some may draw too much attention by strapping overly high-OP weapons on few parts of the ships. While I do not have enough knowledge nor the game could support the code anyway, the most of the ships will have to stay with built-in drones.

    Considering the Nexerelin features require files from their side, it's unlikely the Red would function properly yet.

    Which part of Nexerelin compatibility have you been unable to implement on your side? All of it should be doable in the faction mod.

    I think it is already solved in the mod's java script, but I wasn't sure if it is enough.

    Written this way:
    Code
    package data.scripts;  
     
    import exerelin.campaign.SectorManager; 
    import com.fs.starfarer.api.BaseModPlugin; 
    import com.fs.starfarer.api.Global; 
    import data.scripts.world.OculusGen;
    //import exerelin.campaign.SectorManager;
     
    public class OculusPlugin extends BaseModPlugin { 
     
        public static final boolean isExerelin;
            static
                {
                boolean foundExerelin;
                try
                    {
                        Global.getSettings().getScriptClassLoader().loadClass("data.scripts.world.ExerelinGen");
                        foundExerelin = true;
                    }
                catch (ClassNotFoundException ex)
                    {
                        foundExerelin = false;
                    }
            isExerelin = foundExerelin;
        }
           
        private static void initOculus() { 
    //        try { 
    //            Global.getSettings().getScriptClassLoader().loadClass("data.scripts.world.ExerelinGen");
    //        }
    //        catch (ClassNotFoundException ex) {
                new OculusGen().generate(Global.getSector());
    //        }
        } 

        @Override
        public void onNewGame()
        {
            if (isExerelin && !SectorManager.getCorvusMode())
            {
                return;
            }
              initOculus();
        }

        @Override
        public void onApplicationLoad()
        {
            boolean hasLazyLib = Global.getSettings().getModManager().isModEnabled("lw_lazylib");
            if (!hasLazyLib) {
                throw new RuntimeException("Oculian Berserks requires LazyLib!");
            }
        }

    I have also sent you the faction script on your side which should grant Red the faction access.

    Alright, so i've noticed the Oculian Berserks reputation doesn't go higher than -75 whenever I check on the rep after the bounty is complete and I see the "Assesment: Re".

    I'm not sure if this goes for other factions, but it'd be a starsector thing if it does.

    Albeit, this might be on the Nex Creator's end or your end.

    It's deliberate. The relation script is initially there where EI wanted it. Specifically towards the player, other factions are simply at Hostile.

    I can change the settings in next patch if it's too much.

    Aren't they AIs hellbent on destroying humanity?

    Close, but not that too far off. The new lore is reinstated that the Oculian Berserks wanted to be human... by trying to slaughter a whole lot of them as what humanity seems to be aiming for anyway.

    Where do I put those nexerelin files?

    In the Nexerelin mod folder, the "rules.csv" should be placed at Campaign directory. It should look like this one.

    (http://i.imgur.com/tc69Az8.jpg)


    While the "mod_factions.csv" is placed at "config/exerelinFactionConfig" where other once-built-in factions are usually implemented.

    (http://i.imgur.com/KAjDMh0.jpg)


    I already put up a request for Red to be implemented by the next patch. In the mean time, this is the only way for the faction to be formally available as a Nexerelin faction, although it functions as a regular without it.

    I tried putting up a built-in Nexerelin files, but the UI selection box (from the Startup options at the beginning of a game) doesn't seem to allow inputs from Red's own .csv files and instead requires from the host (Nexerelin mod).

    Not in the exact point of specifics, but it should definitely be against the Red's criteria.

    Actually, I had to recycle of what was left in PT's storyline since the compatibility of its story is too outlandish to be a part of the Persean sector. I basically have no idea how to avoid "spoiling the beans" (I think) on how should PT would handle the Perseans let alone being a large faction in the setting proper.

    To put it, Blue is proposed to go under the new banner called the XLU with a different story.

    I was under the impression that Red included all required Nexerelin files in its own folder, as instructions for which were provided. I only discovered yesterday that this was not actually done.
    (Also the Oculian spawn point was set to the star)

    Extract this over the current Oculian folder (https://www.dropbox.com/s/k44ft0rua4bo4rq/Oculian%20Berserks%20fix.zip?dl=0).

    While you're at it, fix Adalie and its station Pax Proper. The former is a size 7 market with the population 6 condition, the latter is for some reason a size 9 market (!!!) with the population 5 condition (and missing its description text).
    Just merge them into a single size 7 market, there's no good reason for a planet and its station to be separate markets.

    Also, your Version Checker support was not properly implemented. It's missing the data/config/version/version_files.csv file.

       Rough Description:
          - A once peaceful armada of engineers and explorers, with a pursuit of expansion and knowledge amongst the stars. A compelling campaign that was grown in the Domain for several cycles of the thriving era with a firm relation to their superiors. The old Expanse campaign was a promising feat that go on for centuries. Families worked by the millions to live in the vastness of space with no scarcity, no limitations.
          
          Contributed to the allowance of interstellar travel, massive spaceyards and the growth of humanity that had reached tenfold in its time, sheer bliss and ignorance of growth became a powerful signal to many, portraying its significant contrast to what was of the long lost Luddics on old Earth. The people who had distanced itself from the past for the sake of their own future.
          
          Placing itself as an external component of the Domain, a new state was formed with a distinct interest paving roads outside its pre-existed borders. A Lanestate, shared under the bounds of the gates were colonies live under a single roof. Unforunately for its proximity, the state grew tired of its superiors demands from a faraway capital forcing its enclosure, unbounded by its laws and made their own.
          
          A long forgotten union of colonies dettached from its parent state, further erased by the expanding force of what is now known as the great Collapse. Rumors were called to seal of their gates permanently as it would involve a similar fate with its unregrettably dead homeworld. None of state was heard of since and none was given mention of their existence until their desire to return.
          
          
       Summary:
          - Midline heavy militarized hulls, with a "Bigger is better" mindset.
          - Great durability, with a lean on resistance against Kinetic weapons.
          - Built for a solid barrage complement and to heavily compete against solo matchups.
          - Egregiously bulky gas-gustlers.
          - Provides an arsenal comprised of ballistic bombardment.
          
       Traits:
          Good:
             - Large amassment of weapon mounts, some have Heavy Ballistics Integration.
             - Very durable.
             - Larger economic capacity.
             - Low deployment costs.
             - Average burn-level with good ship velocity.
          Bad:
             - Bulky and unwieldy hulls, leaving open to fire more easily.
             - Irregular flux economy with Ballistics-favored mounts.
             - Poor shield management.
             - Limited energy and missile weaponry.
             - High crew requirements.
             - High maintenance/repair costs.
             - Poor maneuverability.

    You know, I was confused at first. I didn't see anything special. All I saw was an Onslaught and a Dragon.

    Then I saw the hangar on the Onslaught. Then I saw the weapons.

    I am now downloading this mod. Just for that.

    One planet moves so quickly that the NPC fleet can't catch up in any way. In Nexerelin it leads to accumulation of a large number of the minning fleets.

    But why this planet flies so quickly?

    Also, Concerning balance of the ships everything is good. But weapons... Why it SO overpowered? A supermortar with 15 OP and range 900 and 300+ DPS eat 50 Flux, its very, very abnormally. Or kinetic shotguns, have a wery good damage but are too flux-effective. Why we need a Neelders with 15 OP if we have more powerful, flux-effective cannons with 10 OP(or 11, i forgot this).

    And other extreme big dual drivers, 500 DPS with 800 Flux and 25OP it doesn't make sense, this will be a more flux effective(like a 600-700 Flux) or lover OP cost.

    These guns allow to do the ship a more powerful and at the same time not to overheat this ship.

    Right. I haven't thoroughly checked all the script that may have issues, this may include this auxiliary planet that I haven't paid much attention of, thank you for that.

    Additionally, the Hyvel cannon is intended to be a heavier variant of the high velocity cannon and since Mjolnir doesn't use Kinetic damage, I assume it would fill in the role as a Kinetic variant. As for the rest, with the Hyvel, they will be addressed shortly once I'm done testing with Nexerelin code.

    Post by: Takion Kasukedo on April 14, 2018, 05:44:14 PM
    This is a list on ships that could probably do with an OP Increase/Decrease. I'm aware Oculus weapons are very OP-light, but some are flux heavy-ish, like the Freya. This needn't change.

    Destroyers-----

    Spoiler
    Tsundere - [+5]. In terms of OP, it seems like the Tsundere may be in a safe spot, until you consider the ships it'd usually face would be that of the like of KE-strong ships or ones capable of keeping up with the Tsundere, like a Medusa, or overdriven Hammerheads, that could smash through the defences if the Tsundere doesn't have a flux-efficient loadout.
    [close]

    Cruisers--------

    Spoiler
    Basilisk - [+10/20] This is practically the most flux-intensive ship out of the Oculus cruisers so far, due to the double Freya Cannons. It's likely it may never need said increase, until you consider what hullmods may need to be in place in order for the Basilisk to survive in battle. Considering I never RB my ships unless really necessary, I do intend to fit ITU/HS to the ships when possible, which are 15 for cruisers. This means the Basilisk doesn't have much for flux capacity, and considering the Freya Cannons, it'll overflux very easily. So a raise of 10 or more will ensure that it'll have just that little more to survive a little longer.
    [close]
    Spoiler
    Geyser - [+5/10] Likely down to the ship having bad flux dissipation and being aware to the fact that it is pretty fast, the Geyser is the least likely candidate for the flux increase, therefore it gets a very low number for a flux increase of 5/10. It'll survive a little longer, yes, but it's efficient speed wise anyway.
    [close]

    Capitals--------

    Spoiler
    Amina - [+20/-10] The Amina is a VERY good Capital for what it can pull off. You can chase ships effectively in the Amina, you can keep pressure in the Amina, heck, you can downright flank ships in it. This is likely the only candidate on the list that needs a decrease in flux due to it's already pretty capable arsenal. The Amina, while astonishingly good at being utterly capable, is not without a minor downside, which is capacity. It's likely due to the Amina being with two Pixel ++ and a Freya as the large built-in weapons, but the Amina never seems to get enough PD. Or sustained fire.
    [close]
    Spoiler
    Etna - [+25/50] The Big One, and a nearly incapable ship for it's own technicality, you have to play this fast Battleship (haha, battleship) right or suffer harder than a Falcon when your opponents get your ship overloaded. Sure, it's fast, but the peak performance time is lacking, and you can't afford to fully kit it out, without considering the PPT and Range. The speed and sometimes, the range save this ship from total destruction. The severe increase in OP will mean it can stock up in either Flux Capacity/Vents or it can stock on hullmods like HS or ITU and still have some left over for other essentials.

    You're using the wrong version and it hasn't been updated yet. Protonus is working on it though. Patience is key.
    Title: Re: [0.9.1a] Red (0.8) Mod - December 6, 2019
    Post by: Protonus on December 06, 2019, 07:23:15 AM
    Right. There have been some significant changes with this one, made new sprites and a new hullmod system. The "elite" versions are removed, for now, so that I can understand how the new updated hulls would work latere on as I work more on this new version.

    This is more on to keep the ship roster to a manageable size without compromising specialization as the mod's goal intended. The way how ships behave are still pretty much the same but with the new hullmods you can play around more often. Weapons get some changes too, but not too far out, though some have niche perks with PD.

    Since this is a counterpart for Blue, I might have plans for other things. Such as, a bit contrary, new ships, new weapons and more hullmods. But I'll see to it.

    they are dark and poorly visible, they have much less detail than the old ones, they look flat and not embossed like the old ones, in my humble opinion, this is a serious deterioration.

    With regards to the major art change:

    I had to work on the ship sprites since it wasn't a good feel of retaining the heavy carbon-copy cut-out of Tri-Tachyon while having lower stats than the faction originated from. The ships were also too massive to fit what classes they have a role in and are too redundant to represent which one could serve the role.

    Additionally, founder of the mod also specified before her leave that she wanted to make that ugly-cute look with bulbous structures that came out immediately from a factory to be delivered into the fight. Which is why the Tri-Tachyon pieces were even borrowed from the first place.

    This change is not something everyone would be happy about, nor did this mod had anything in the past. It is the only conclusion I had to work with due to the scenarios it went through.

    I like the new ship art. It's unique and matches well with the built in hullmod which states that the ships are built with plastic exteriors. I'm playing with them in a new playthrough, I'll let you know what I think after I get a better feel for them. Initial comments are that I find the combination of generally low monthly supply cost with high recovery cost an interesting aspect. Well, high with the chemical core hullmod which some of these ships seem like they outright require. An example of which is the Basilix which will flux itself to death without it. With the hullmod at least it does it more slowly.

    Anyway, point is that I like how the little guys look and am glad to have them to play around with. Thanks for all of your hard work updating the mod!

    This is a pretty minor gripe, but the mod weapons aren't properly tagged as belonging to the red-faction, instead showing up as "common"

    I love joining a faction of anime red heads just to sell intergalactic cookies. (Poor boys though, if they existed at all, hiding their faces. Assuming if they're as cute as the anime girls in the administry of the faction.)

    The ships could use a... touch up on a more sharper color-wise end, but from what I gathered, they are mostly made with plastic and circuitry, so I kinda understand.

    I just wished some ships have as sharp look as the weapons, but otherwise, it's funny that not only I'm a [REDACTED], illegally selling harvested human internal meat from any enemy defeated and chemicals that give them euphoria, but I'm also floating through space selling cookies with my fast ships!  ;D

    PS: I cannot guarantee the mod will be 100% functional. But since it doesn't depend on any mod, it should be fine.

    i just played with this mod for the first time and i have to say... imbalanced... I am sorry to say but some of the ships are simply without a counter, or atleast one that i can figure out.

    I mean they swarm, coolio that should mean their carriers are vulnerable, but nope. Well atleast they don't have omni shields... ah wait they do that aswell (seriously? a pirate faction with omni shields? some hegemony and neutral ships have that but most of the time the remnants and tri tachyon are the posterfactions for this kit). So at least they don't have a long sustain? ah wait they do that aswell... because they don't have balistics (how is that a weakness, btw?) what about flux capacity? Finally an opening but wait: They vent like there is no tomorrow. (the part about abysmal venting rate in the description of the mod is a lie, plain and simple) 

    Seriously this mod is a walking cheat. Maybe list in the description that it is completely impossible to beat some of the most basic cruisers with any weapons in the game upto date..... sorry but this mod is simply not for me.

    This is a major update, so better keep your run as is until you're finish.
    So, start a new round if you're playing the mod for the new patch.
    Or the game crashes.


    Edit: Before anyone asks for 0.9 Red. Yeah, there iswas a crash where if you don't have Blue the procedural generation would try to call something that doesn't exist for relations. It's gone and fixed. You can download again.

    There isn't really a way to convince you otherwise, nor this mod will ever intend to get anywhere near being balanced in such a way. It's not really my intention nor the original author's goal anyway.

    I kinda just wanted to make cheap ships that zoom around fast while still being too weak unshielded to stand around for over a few seconds. And watch how many fighters could fill an entire screen without actually look too broken or how far would some builds like a Frigate with a very big gun can still compete against the more complicated ones. Fun fact: The Gretly, that same frigate, just dies when it rams once to an Atlas test dummy.

    Thanks for at least trying out the mod, some criticism really helps set a boundary that tells me if I go too far with these ships. Or at least if I could ever see it. .m.

    any chance of making another version without the anime portraits or is there a way to remove them manually. Personally i'm just not a fan of having this dark, gritty universe then proceeding to have a blood red hatsune miku obliterate my fleet. Other than that though I really like the mod :D

    Sure, I'll post a faceless variant, with only the Oculian bot as the actual portrait.

    Though the lore kinda writes it in that the Armada has this animesqe physique was more of a marketing purpose to sell their cookies. Additionally the idea of the cookies itself, the faction's premise, is fairly a dead giveaway where the faction already went to.

    Well handing Excel the altered file does work... but why don't I take a sec to teach the man to fish?  ;)
    From the start I'm gonna assume you know how to reach the Starsector game folder. Since putting mods in the game folder is the only way for them to work and you are.. well.. here. The mod site.
    First go to the mod, "Oculian Armada" in this case, you want to edit in your "Mods" folder.
    Open the "data" folder. -> Then the "world" folder. -> Then finally the "factions" folder. This is where who gets what portrait is decided along with some other things.
    Your gonna need a program like Notepad++ in order to edit the files here. Its a free program and is literally just a buffed up notepad. Highly recommend it. If you don't have or don't want a program like that I'm afraid things end here. Otherwise on to the next step: Editing!
    Left click on "ocua.faction" and "player.faction" and open them in your Notepad++ or similar program.
    What your looking for is the list of "Portraits" near the bottom of the Ocua file. Its a short list it wont be hard to find. The player list has nothing but that list on it.
    Now you have options; like just deleting the ones you don't want. They do need a portrait for both male and female tho so be sure to leave 1. It can even be the same 1 just copy it to both gender listings.
    To actually SEE the portraits and determine the keepers go back to your mod file and look into "graphics" -> "Oculian Armada" -> "portraits"
    In this case the 2 male portraits both work for not getting curb stomped by a red headed Miku. So you could just copy those 2 lines and replace the female listings with it.
    "graphics/Oculian Armada/portraits/ocua_m1.png",
    "graphics/Oculian Armada/portraits/ocua_7.png",
    You can do the same for the "Player.faction" side. Or you can simply delete that file if you don't want those portraits yourself.
    Another option you have is to copy a portrait list from the base game. You can reach those the same way you reached the mod lists. Just look into "Starsector-core."
    Lets use Hegemony has an example. Just pull up their faction file and copy everything from the ""portraits":{" line all the way down to the "]," line and replace the same section on the mod file list. Now the Ai driven nutcases of the Oculian will all charade has upstanding hegemony officers in order to blend in with the rest of the gynocidal sector!  8)
    Finally you could skip text editing altogether and simply Replace the portraits you don't want from the graphics/portraits folder with ones you do like from elsewhere. Just copy the name of the portrait your replacing onto its replacement and swap them out. Just make sure the 2 portraits are the same gender or in game descriptions could get weird lol.

    This update comes with new script changes and an altered ship.
    So, there's a possibility it will crash save.


    Also, this is the return of the long awaited removed elite units, expect a bit of a spike when fighting some fleets.

    I've taken this in and made all 6 of the portraits in a glitched state. Since I kinda know how to do it now.

    Want to give an honest opinion about the mod, I kind of don't like the design/shading. Initially looked decent in the preview but after putting them inside the game, i feel like there is something lacking with this design, it doesn't match the game's aesthetics.

    It isn't really in the resembling anywhere close to the locals. And I do have no idea how to put up a unique theme, other than having these hulls really do look like they came from a prefab factory. That or being stuck being a repainted, poorly kitbashed High-tech ships the faction used to have.

    The Galalixia is a rare spawn for both the market and the fleet. Though, by sheer luck, you might even get a blueprint, through raids or some other means to get rare blueprint.

    Lights need more depth, and maybe add more detail to any parts that are too "smooth", if you get my drift. Only a few tweaks, really.
    Otherwise, very cool.

    Two things.

    First one is a bug. Oculian took a planet (Nex) at some point and as I visited the planet and no music played. Felt rather eerie honestly. I'll report to you if this applies to their own planets as well and then see what might be causing the bother.

    Next thing. I want to say, I absolutely adore this mod and it's contents. I'm playing a free start nex run with way too many faction mods and other utility mods added in and all the smaller oculian details I keep seeing absolutely adore me. I love the fact the faction itself is a rampant AI that want's to mass produce cookies. I love the fact that the ships can turn the pirates into s tier problems while also being balanced enough to basically be swarming glass cannons. I love using the ships. I love it all and it feels very ever presently complimentary. I have through the power of magic and prisoner exchange also appeased the oculian's and they now don't want to commit murder against me so I can start poking at their actual star systems. I also adore the idea (and at this point head canon) that these AI decided that taking on the persona of anime girls to better interact with customers and are designed so simplistically that having automated knowledge isn't needed.

    My only bother and this is just a specific personal bother, is the cookie resource itself. I don't know if you added it in yourself or someone else did, but I can build a food manufacturing plant that has a small resource output of cookies attached to it. The issue is the cookie resource doesn't count into the monthly pool the same way recreational drugs and harvested organs do. I think there are a few other mods that poke the idea of making special resources an actual resource unit in the game that certain structures and industries need, which I'd love to see implemented. I've also seen something involving clones organs that count's like that in a similar manner but I've yet to build a producer for them so I'm not certain. Either way I think the idea of them being a later down the line big planet requirement for planetary inferstructure would be a good idea, giving me a way to turn a profit off of them and also satisfying my own factions internal need for the resource.

    Apologies if I'm being *** or something, as I don't often focus on the workings of this mod. I noticed in the missions that there are Mikanate ships in one of the missions(and in the OP) with seemingly Oculian core upgrades, but instead Mikanate that function mostly the same, aside from a few adjustments it seems. Is there a way to get these ships/hullmods in the campaign?(I also don't check their market as I'm rarely friendly to them)

    Yeah, I made some mistakes not having the Addon be separated completely along with its special item. It should be fixed now.

    Generic music is also added back in, along with some other stuff.

    This update is major, and it will not work on existing saves since it affects the campaign layer just a bit.

    You can also go into the data/world/factions folders and modify the .faction files.  It can be more or less work, depending on whether you just want to delete large portions of the faction file or get rid of it entirely.

    Follow RED from first versions and always find it interesting. Now, what your planning on mikante version of Etana or Pandora? Despite weapon and wing limitation ships can take varios roles(especially fun with Super capital). Second question about Utena, i really don't play phased and don't understand the very concept of it, but usually phased ones have armour or good speed, it does not.

    PS Pandora with full Loach wings sends enemy big guys to sleep quite easily. Fun everything for fun.

    The average faction mod uses like what, 100 mb of VRAM? So I wouldn't exactly call your mod "free", in terms of system requirements.

    Though it's also not a very big deal either.

    It's not a question of system requirement, but lib dependency and all that stuff. English isn't Protonus' first language, so it wouldn't surprise me if it's just a translation mistake.

    The Star Fortress in Adalie is actually ridiculous. How exactly is anyone supposed to assault this and live? It has massive layered shields, rotates very quickly so it can constantly vent flux on the back side, does way more damage than any ship or lesser station does, and has very distributed parts so you have to pick at dozens of points to disable it enough to even get breathing room.

    I get you want to have red-haired anime girls giving out cookies. There's nothing wrong with that. The ships can be wacky but are perfectly fine to me. But can this be looked at for future releases?

    I fixed it. It was attempting to remove a built-in hullmod for a specific wing.


    Also, some changes have been made to make the Red fights barely playable. I guess.

    Updated the mod now, and I cannot enable shields on the Etna with right click anymore. Is it supposed to be removed, or is it a bug?

    Went back to the previous version of the mod and it works again..

    Still the same with v.0.10.0-RC1. Would love to know if this is intended with previous update, or a bug.

    Red received another overhaul that gives them Photon Shields (the new skin-shield armor) instead of CPU-intensive shields. So the shields were left for specifically for ships that intended to have them.

    I am encountering a strange crash, and was wondering if you could help me track it down.  This is the stack trace:

    at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:748)

    I think the other relevant mods are Nexerelin, and possibly AoTD/Vaults . 

    I am a complete novice to Starsector modding, but here is my best guess as to what is happening...

    It looks like ocua is trying to upgrade an industry, but when the starfarer code fetches the industry spec for an upgrade:
    Code
        upgradeId = getSpec().getUpgrade();
        IndustrySpecAPI upgrade = Global.getSettings().getIndustrySpec(upgradeId); // Starsector's BaseIndustry.java line 571

    The industry Spec is null, which causes the game to crash when it tries to fetch the Industry Spec's build time in the startUpgrading() method.

    As to WHY it's null, I am wondering if perhaps AoTD or some other mod is changing the upgrade path for heavy industry in some fashion that the custom code for ocua is unaware of. I am *hoping* that maybe there is just an id in a csv file somewhere that needs to be updated, but can't wrap my head around how the base code and the mod code all wraps together.

    If you have any thoughts, I would love to hear them.  I tried just commenting out the offending lines from ocua_orbital_matrix, but I need a plugin file that doesn't appear to be present (plate shield plugin) in order to recompile.  I am sure I am just running too many mods, but if there is a quick fix, it would be great to have all my mods be one happy family.

    thank you for your time/thoughts.

    I may be asking in the wrong mod thread, but didn't Red used to have a utterly obscene monster of a supercapital in its roster? I'm fairly sure it was apart of this mod ages ago.

    Got the same error as him, wondering if this error is due to updating Oculian version as I've managed to play a campaign with the same strategic Nexrelin AI, Oculian, and AOTD without crashing in this way on a previous version.

    I know it is quite late of an answer, but being one of the people that actually hated loved the pointless big ass and kind of buggy ship, I feel ya. It has been a long while since it has been removed. If you want that  monstrosity back in your game, you could check Spaceport Corvus channel in discord and search for Ophiuchus.
