Suggestions / Re: Separate Personal (Combat) skills and Fleet skills

If each officer has 1 skill, that kind of looks like officers are skills.

Captains + swappable officers
vs
Officers + fixed skills

The miss distances seem pretty close to the offset of the missile mount on the Brawler, like it is not accounting for that offset, but I think that is just coincidence.

That is SO much better! However, I will note the torpedoes still would have missed if the Atlas didn't have its shield up.

That describes a lot of early game ships. Hound, Lasher, Wolf, Brawler, Afflictor (P), Hammerhead (SO), Domain drones, LP variants, etc. are all fast, short-ranged, and use hardpoints. The aiming error is exacerbated because they are often shooting at those same small, fast, early-game ships.

Missile aim is less than ideal, yeah, though that's a somewhat separate issue from guns. I just tried a bunch of LP Brawler vs Atlas and it's basically all like this:

Which to me looks fine?

It's missing half its AC shots against one of the largest, slowest ships in the game for no good reason. That is horrible.

Frigate v frigate fights are especially frustrating. The main problem is the AI faces its hull exactly at its target's center, making it impossible for hardpoints to hit.

TBH the existence of pirate and path worlds in the core is far more conspicuous.

Can we have ability for hiding  structure from building menu, without fully making it unavailable to build?
I have runned into issue that by doing this, you also block ability to downgrade industry to that certain one, you want to hide

I think making it available to build specifically when the upgraded version is present will achieve what you want.

Are there any other places with Roider Union HQs than Korovin?

Dutch Harbor (Ounalashka system) and Holt Refining Complex (Attu system).

Modding Resources / Re: [0.97a] RetroLib 1.0.1

Added a brief guide to using RetroLib to the OP!

I use the devModeRetrofitter and created a separate mod for retrofits.csv, but after I retro fitted my ships, it took my ship but did not produce anything, I am not sure whats happening.

Not sure why that would be happening. Did you specify a retrofit time? It would take that many days for the finished ship to appear in storage at that market.

Is it a balance thing that this isn't player-affectable?

I think it is mainly just Alex doesn't want to deal with adding/removing the mirrors/shades.

Roider expeditions don't exist anymore. There are only mining expeditions atm.

Suggestions / Re: An "always autofire" toggle for weapon groups

« on: March 14, 2024, 06:30:31 PM »

I think it should be a variant-level decision, not an autofire decision. I doubt most loadouts would benefit much from it. Players would certainly overuse it, but I think they'd feel more in control of how their fleet behaves.

Suggestions / Re: Enhancing the Save System for a Better Gameplay Experience. Pretty Please.

« on: March 14, 2024, 08:52:51 AM »

99% of the games I've played overwrite your current save file with quicksave (F5), otherwise you'd end your daily session and end up with 20-30 saves and having to delete them manually.

A lot of games have a separate "quicksave slot" that is shared between all characters/playthroughs/whatever. Main saves are not overwritten and quick saves don't pile up.
