I haven't touched Project Ironclads in a long time, but it's still sad to see it disappear alongside the other total conversions.

[Sabaton]

Ok, guys.

If there is anyone willing to take over the Project Ironclads mod`s development - step up and say so.

Unfortunatelly, i don`t have neither interest nor time to continue the mod and will gladly give the source files and my permission to anyone i`ll consider worth providing this privilege to.

Post here or PM me if you wish to.

I thought this mod is staying here forever, permanently updated since ages and just an amazing piece of work. First SS+ in its original form and now ironclads...

Nothing lasts forever.

Tech Support Request: As it is improbable to sift through the thousands of responses to find solutions to my problems, please take a look a help me decide a suitable course of action.

When starsector is started with ironclads, it will soon crash and windows will report that java(tm) platform se binary is not responding. Here are the logs.

Ok, guys.

If there is anyone willing to take over the Project Ironclads mod`s development - step up and say so.

Unfortunatelly, i don`t have neither interest nor time to continue the mod and will gladly give the source files and my permission to anyone i`ll consider worth providing this privilege to.

Post here or PM me if you wish to.

Have you thought about putting all the code somewhere like GitHub? I don't think I have the experience to support the mod fully, but I'd love to work on some parts of this mod.

I'd be interested in playing around with the source code, but I don't have much experience modding, and about 0 art skills.

[Weltall]

Also, is there anyway to get any of the older versions, or older version sprites?

Older versions - no. Old sprites, however, might be archived somewhere - need to check.

I hope it is ok to share the links here, but sure older links can be found. Links down to 9.1 are the still active ones from Okim. 9.0 and older ones are uploaded by me.

If it is not ok to post these, I will take down the post.

For 0.7.2a: 10.4 and 10.3
For 0.7.1a: 10.2, 10.1 and 10.0
For 0.6.5.2a: 9.1 and 9.0
For 0.6.5.1a: 8.6 and 8.4.1

Even if 8.6's mod_info.json says 8.5, I am sure it is 8.6 and the readme seems to support what I remember. Sadly I do not have any Ironclads 7 for 0.6.2a, if that was needed.

[Okim]

So, first it is planet surveys and procedural sectors, now it is salvage operations and exploration. Next it would be ship customisation and shipyard orders. 

Guess Ironclads has finally lived it`s purpose

[Weltall]

Even if I played it towards the final versions, 9.1 was a perfect game that no matter what can be considered playable even if the game version is older. I say it is still fine to keep the lights on for it, even if you will not continue. But I am guessing with the new update, the mod will break further.

Irorclads TC 10.4
The fleet does not consume fuel in hyperspace, how to fix ?

[SpacePoliticianAndaZealot]

So, any news? I would really like to see the mod development continue, but I'm sadly ignorant on the finer workings of Java (for now, at least). Best I can do is play around with .csv files. 

[ChaseBears]

Imma not commit to anything, but once 0.8a comes out i'm at least going to take a stab at porting the assets with re-done balance.

[Okim]

Much appreciated, ChaseBears!

Was thinking to completelly rework the factions, but not sure if i`ll have the time. It seems that ships, weapons, mods and factions are the only stuff to update since the new update basically has everything that Ironclads has.

[TrashMan]

Now that 0.8 is out, I *MIGHT* (no promises) take a shot at making IC work in it (with my add-on)

Unless someone else or Okim has different ideas/plans?

[Okim]

Hm.

I waited for this day. And i guess i`ll have to dive into it again.
From what i can see - there is a lot of things that Ironclads will have to cut out since they are now in the official game.

[SCC]

OH BOY
Great news! It's also nice that if you want to just port it you have less work to do (because some features are in the base game).
Also, since you're back - why XLE ships have mostly armour=hull*0.2, but RSF is hull*0.15? If anything I'd think it's the other way. It's a minor complaint since frigates have short lifetime anyway, but it's somewhat bad that all other factions' frigates can tank a bit without consequences (shields) but RSF don't really have that option. Not to mention AI being trigger-happy when armed with missiles and facing shieldless ship.

[Mealstrom]

have you thought of also adding ironclads to the corvus map? would be great!
