Nice mod btw, do you plan to port other ships? Roaming Nexus enclaves for example can be implemented in SS.

I've already got Neinzul enclaves and a bunch of fighter wings ingame, but I'll hold off on release till after SS 0.7 (due to certain AI issues with missiles and unshielded ships). Zenith will come eventually.

They'll probably only appear ingame as Spire auxiliaries until I have enough ships to fill out something resembling a proper faction, though.

Hey, long time fan of AI War here, keep up the good work!  Love what you have here, it looks really good

[CrashToDesktop]

Is there a way I can disable the faction and just have the Vengeance spawners, or vice-versa and disable the Vengeance spawners?  Just curious.

Generators but no faction: Not at the moment, no; I considered it at one point but got lazy. (Well, in Nexerelin you can just scrub it from the supported mod factions list in the mod config)

Faction but no generators: data\config\AIWar\vengeanceGenConfig.json - set useRandomGenerators to -1

Alright, thanks.

Dark Spire is a truly apocalyptic force. Are there any plans to make the Vengeance Generators able to be interacted with by the player outside of just charging them up?

Yea, they bloody convulse the entire system in destruction in Nexerelin.  It kind of chain-reacts with so many damn fleets going around.  I had to change the baseSpawnThreshold to 2000 to make it so they didn't just absorb the entire sector in battle (and to limit their exponential growth).

n.b. battles with Dark Spire don't feed the generators (unless it's bugged, but that seems quite unlikely), precisely to keep them from self-replicating

Not at present. Might think of something someday.

Hey Histidine, what and all from AI war are you planning to implement? If you could find a creative way to get the

in, I might just marry you.

[Histidine]

Probably no golems.

Or will there?

Though implementing them in a non-silly way will probably be... interesting. I'll see what mods like SEEKER come up with when future SS versions roll around

In other news, HELMUT has kindly remastered the ship sprites as seen here:





Weapons too!

[Agalyon]

I like the sprites, especially the weapons.

Spoiler

I also think something like SEEKER would probably be the best way to do it. Though you're right, we have no idea what else will be rolling around by then. Good idea though. More unwanted tips, it definitely wouldn't be the coolest, but I bet the hive golem might be the easiest to implement and balance without being outright ridiculous.

Note to self, don't use the no-shield hullmod on a Spire ship. (Causes crash)

Also, definitely enjoying this mod.

Dat forum thread discussion is hillarious...
(the one you asked permission to Arcen Games. Yep it's 2 years before but still.)

You could totally inform the folks over there of your progress on this; if you haven't. Could be especially great if you got them a nice youtube video of the mod in action. I don't actually know much of the forums over there, though, so it may or may not actually be a good idea. I'd like to see their reactions.

Heh, I actually earlier dropped an old teaser pic here. Maybe I'll post again after the mod's post-0.7 update/polish release.
