Any preview of the Karkinos? I would love to see what you can do, being one of the old gods of Wyrdysm.

The Karkinos has been posted a long time ago. The sprite has actually been finished for ages, but I haven't been able to do the ship system yet/mod development took a break this summer

Anyway, reposting (bottom one): http://i.imgur.com/F5EF00M.jpg

your mod is truly on a level of its own. sprites / sounds / weapons are all top notch.

The Karkinos

That ship is epic and really completes the fleet. Are dem new advanced energy weapons I see on that thing? :o

Also breaks are good. They help rejuvenate inspiration and help prevent burnout. Once can get bored if he spends more time modding a game than playing the game.  

I too have much love and appreciation for this mod.

The weapons are good old Solenoid Quench Cannons. They are ridiculously nasty when you field 4 of them, almost makes me want to code diminishing returns on the weapon.

Thank you so much for enjoying the mod ;D it makes it so rewarding to keep investing all this effort in it!

I miss my alpha-strike Raven with SQCs so much :D

I called it the 'Dramatic Pause' because of the long RoF pauses when it seemed like nothing was happening :D

Oh yes i've seen how nasty they can be. I was thinking. Interested in doing antimatter energy torpedos? Basically Its a like an energy weapons that fires a slower moving ball of energy and have massive explosion like that of powerful missile. Then again...I think your faction is more about hyperadvanced projectile warfare?

I've never been happy with how energy missiles have been handled in mods. They usually have no ammo limit and guidance, which somehow doesn't feel like it lines up with the tech level in Starsector.

I'd love a well done guided energy missile and unguided torp though. You can balance that out with lower DPS easy enough - they become more of a main/support weapon rather than a finisher like Harpoons and Reapers.

I wanna make a homing energy weapon that's like the Gaitori Homing Pulse from ARES at some point. Those things were nasty as ***. Probably wont see it on Blackrock ships though.

I might just be blind but I can't find anywhere in the last couple pages (currently 34 pages in total)or in the OP where it says what version of Starsector it works with..

I have no idea if BDY 0.3 is for 0.54.1 or 0.6a?

Would probably be helpful to many just adding that in the OP.
