General Discussion / Can i Tell my faction to attack?

« on: January 19, 2019, 05:39:14 AM »

Hello everyone!

Is there a way to tell my faction to attack/invade? I made a base and i have fleets but i dont know how to tell them to target a base to attack? I think its not a vanilla thing and more of a mod (Nexerelin? not to sure).

cheers

General Discussion / Nexerelin market wont protect me? (i think its this mod)

« on: January 18, 2019, 09:35:03 PM »

Hello all you captains out there!

So i'm not to sure if its the Dassault-Mikoyan mod or its in vanilla now but i conquered a research base (a base that floats around the planet that you can go to buy stuff and so on) and like how you would when you build a base on a planet i upgraded the station. When an enemy fleet came to me, i was next the base but instead of the base appearing in the combat, i was left alone? So was wondering if it was on purpose to be more of the base protects itself only and not act like a base that you would of constructed on a planet that would protect you if you were near it.

cheers.

General Discussion / What What?! Mother Ships?

« on: January 17, 2019, 04:58:36 AM »

Hello everyone,

So i was watching youtube, looking at game play footage of starsector when i bumped into one that captured a mother ship?! Had a read through the comments and 1 said that you can no longer capture mother ships? so my big q's is... wtf? why are we not able to capture mother ships? that thing looked bad ass, a big long out battle to get the mother ship. Is there a mod or something that allows us to capture mother ships again?

cheers.

This link was from a prev post about more info on factions (thank you Captain Draco). This topic here now is just to know what extra options (if any at this version of the game) that i can do to extend outwards. i.e bring me supplys from anywere, choose a target for my own faction to attack, etc.

General Discussion / Legion-class Battlecarrier

« on: December 17, 2018, 04:52:01 PM »

Hello everyone!

So far i havent had a problem in customising with ships but this "Legion-class Battlecarrier" is for me extremely difficult to make it effective. I have no idea how to make it work. if it gets close combat it gets ***, if its in the distance the weapons dont feel impactful, I dont understand its role at all.
The ISS Terpsichore, HSS Space Raptor and the TTS Hlad Zero (that i have) I understand their roles and they do a really good job at what they do, were as the Legion-class Battlecarrier, i just dont understand what it can do that the other 3 ships carnt do? It feels like a jack of all trades and master of none ship?

Anyone come across this problem? If anyone knows what the Legion-class Battlecarrier is good at please let me know.

Thank you.

General Discussion / Raiding in what way?

« on: December 16, 2018, 04:01:36 AM »

Hello all,

So whats the point of it? I mean as far as i know you just raid a port,planet and get a few resources but then you carnt do it again after? carnt i steal stuff? can i take over the starport? whats the limit to raiding? i find killing or destroying a starport to be more rewards then a few scraps from raid?

I love the game but just a big noob at what i can do.

General Discussion / Please obey my commands Y.Y

« on: December 15, 2018, 06:28:22 PM »

Hello everyone,

How do you issue an order to make your ship move to that spot? An example is when my base is under attack and my capital ship is just sitting there behind the station.... I try to order it to move to a spot but it just ignores. Is it to do with the pilot i assigned to ship? do i need to find an aggressive pilot? or is there a speachel command that i dont know about.

thank you.

General Discussion / Restoration and New Ship Acquisition

« on: December 13, 2018, 02:01:31 AM »

Hello everyone,

Were is the place that you can remove the damage mods. on the site here http://fractalsoftworks.com/2017/01/20/ship-recovery/ it says you can:

"when docked at a port, you can “restore” a ship to peak condition, getting rid of all d-mods. This is quite costly, up to several times the cost of buying a new hull – but is always an option for a ship that’s worth it. In most cases, however, living with a d-mod or two is likely to be more cost-effective, especially given that some of them have been toned down a bit."

but i carnt find the dock to do this?
