Templates question
« on: November 25, 2018, 10:16:04 AM »

Hi, is it possible to find templates for all the ship variants?

Spoiler
For example I got several copies of Hegemony auxiliaries, but no actual XIV template.

I'm not sure, I haven't seen one before for the xiv but that doesn't mean it isn't out there.

While XIV BP's exist in the code, it is set not to drop. Sorry

Thinking about it ... it actually makes the faction more interesting. They have something unique and there are still numerous way to get XIV ships.

Not even Hegemony has the blueprints or facilities to build new XIV hulls. (At least according to the lore)

This of course is not true.

During a raid, there is a chance for "Burst" of blueprints to drop. You could potentially get approximately up to 5 rare blueprints in a raid.

After repeated 25 raids on that 8 population hegemony planet I've attempted(so I could rightfully appropriate their nanoforge), I hit jackpot and stole their XIV blueprints with blueprint burst.

I am only using a faction mod, graphicslib, magiclib and lazylib so I am pretty sure this is intended behaviour.

Edit: In addition I've scoured about 70% of the uncharted sector. I have never ever seen XIV blueprints drop from there.

I can also confirm that XIV blueprints are acquirable.

I have raided that planet almost 50 Times and still did not get any BPs. I disrupted all industry except orbital works.

I've raided TT so much looking for an Aurora BP that all their stations have become decivilized before I could find it. That's just how it is sometimes.

I have scoured approximately 30% of the sector in 3 separate playthorughs(except I've exported my save manually, including BP data.).

During that time I've found a single Aurora BP. In a research station.

I recommend you to fill up your fuel tanks, prepare 3 hour long podcasts and leave sector for the next 2 ingame years.

My sector is about 60-70% explored already actually. I'm actually looking for a secret event which I haven't had the chance to experience myself yet, so I'm slowly going system to system. No Aurora yet.

For reference I've found 5 Paragon BPs.

That is how I play usually. I create my first colony and then never return to the core worlds again. Exploration, pirate/pather bases and bounties are all outside of the core worlds and the colony can provide all the support I need  ;D
