What if the Mayasurans had won? Could they turn back the tide and push the Hegemony back?
It's no longer 'The Last Hurrah', this sparks a brand new comeback for the Mayasurian fleet.
Rising from the ashes, will you lead them to victory?

Gandiva
A triple barreled Gauss Cannon built into the Arjuna-class Siege Carrier. This superheavy kinetic weapon is extremely powerful, albeit this power comes with high flux cost.

Arbalest Battery
A triple-linked assembly of Arbalest Autocannons, the cheap and simple Arbalest Battery allows a ship to pummel shielded targets with astounding reliability, and at a very low cost.

Triple Beam Cannon
An enormously powerful laser array, the Triple Beam Cannon combines three high-powered burst beams into a single mount. Boasting superior precision from the alternating emitters, it is especially effective at melting... Well, just about anything.

OFFICIAL MAYASURA RAP:
Spoiler
Verse 1:
Listen up, we've got a story to tell
'Bout how Mayasura fought and conquered well
Against the Hegemony and Luddic Path
We took 'em down, we don't need no math

We're Mayasura, we don't play
We beat the Hegemony and Luddic Path in a blaze
With our flow so sick, we're the real deal
We're the ones who stand tall, we're the big meal

The Hegemony thought they could defeat us with ease
But we showed them the power of Mayasura, with a squeeze
They tried to cancel us, but we're not done
We rose up and showed 'em, we're number one

We're Mayasura, we don't play
We beat the Hegemony and Luddic Path in a blaze
With our flow so sick, we're the real deal
We're the ones who stand tall, we're the big meal

Luddic Path thought they could drop their colony on us
But we bounced back and showed them who's plus
We're the Mayasura, we don't take no cap
Now they know they can't beat us, not even a snap

We're Mayasura, we don't play
We beat the Hegemony and Luddic Path in a blaze
With our flow so sick, we're the real deal
We're the ones who stand tall, we're the big meal

We're woke, we're lit, and our drip's so boujee
We show the haters, our glow up's complete
They try to ghost us, but we're not salty
We rise above, and show them who's reallyalty

We're Mayasura, we don't play
We beat the Hegemony and Luddic Path in a blaze
With our flow so sick, we're the real deal
We're the ones who stand tall, we're the big meal

So now you know, Mayasura's the G.O.A.T
We took on the Hegemony and Luddic Path, and left them afloat
We're the real deal, we don't play around
We're Mayasura, the biggest baddest sound.

10.0.0 RC2
-Fixed Didymoi Minelayer
New missile behavior means it activates as soon as it gets in range rather than a timer. While unfortunate, I can't change this I think.
-Added pass through to the Mark VII projectiles, Caliburnus Railgun projectiles, Charged UV Pulse Cannon Projectiles.
These are all big projectiles with a lot of damage. So have fun sniping multiple fighters at once!
-Increased refire time of Mark VII to 12 seconds.
-Increased refire time of Armored Box Launcher to 12 seconds.
Both of these weapons will be keeping their massive alpha damage, however, you will have to be more deliberate with your shots.

With how unwieldy this gun is, it deserves MORE damage.
 


10.0.0 RC1
-New Conquest Sprite
-New Heron Sprite
-Fixed Pyotr for 0.96a
-Added Pegasus (M)
-Added Crusader (M)
this is a battlecarrier version of the Champion-class.

Also the frontal missile mounts have been converted to synergy mounts, so have fun with that.
-Added Mule (M)
not in for real yet
-Added Charged UV Pulse Cannon
not in for real yet
-Added PORTRAITS
surprise lmao

9.0.0 RC3
-Fixed Armored Box Launcher being found as a droppable, sorry


9.0.0 RC2
-FIXED SKYSPLITTER (M) BUG FINALLY
Okay so if you get a D-modded Skysplitter, it will lack the swap hullmod for the system. However, if you restore the Skysplitter, you will gain access to the base Skysplitter hull and be able to swap systems again. I hope this fixes it for those that have problems!
-Adjusted volume for Mark VII cannons to 25%
I've noticed it was a bit loud! I have turned it down, haha.


9.0.0
-Added new Sprite for Tiger Grenade Launcher
-Added new weapons for Aznable Mech
These are gonna be the vulcan head and the triple beam cannon condensed into a pistol for the Aznable's arm
-Buffed Manta (M)
I've added a medium hybrid hardpoint to the front center of this thing. I've also changed the small energy hardpoints up front to be missile mounts. All of the small turrets have been turned into hybrid plus I've given this thing more OP, 95 from 75.
-Changed Nailer/Nailer (M)
I've  changed the Nailer to be a medium-light frigate like the Perryi with twin 'Nail' Cannons that are basically miniatuarized triple beam cannons. You'll find its ability to pursue its enemies with built-in firepower and especially if you install high scatter amplifier, it is a force to be reckoned with.
These changes represent myself wanting to see people use some of my under utilized ships.
-Added Vishnu-class Battleship
This is one of the largest capital ships I have ever made. It outscales all of my current ships and can serve as the ULTIMATE fleet anchor. However, it is slow and equipped with capital jets limiting your mobility. One thing to note is that the Vishnu has an Advanced Targeting Core, you'll be able to provide support from quite a distance.
-Changed back flag to old flag
people seem to like the old flag more it seems
-Switched Neutral theme to Friendly theme


8.3.9 RC2
-Renamed Mammoth in files to Onbu Railgun, this makes it so that when you select the Onbu Railgun in the hullmod thing, it shows you bright yellow texture
-Adjusted Onbu Railgun sound lower to half volume
might still be loud, haha
-Changed Spartan filename to MSS_Spartan.png and elite Version to MSS_Spartan_Elite.png
this should fix the linux version, I apologize!


8.3.9
-Added in weapon swapping to Skysplitter (M)
Base Weapon for the Skysplitter is the Avenger
Secondary Weapon is the Mark IX Rotary Autocannon, which is the Avenger but kinetic.
Tertiary Weapon is the Tiger Grenade Launcher which fires high explosive grenades that explode on proximity or max range. Use with ballistic configuration or ITU to maximize range and firepower.
Quaternary Weapon is the Onbu Railgun, which is a massive double barreled fragmentation railgun that shoots really fast and destroys hull on impact.

-Added in system swapping to Skysplitter (M)
Base Version of the Skysplitter is the SPEED CONFIGURATION, with Infernium Burn as its main system.
Version B of the Skysplitter is the ENERGY CONFIGURATION, which swaps out the system to High Energy Focus and swaps the medium mounts out for energy mounts. (Do note you'll have to click on and off of the ship for it to work in the refitting screen.
Version C of the Skysplitter is the OVERDRIVEN CONFIGURATION, which swaps out the system to Safeties Switch and gives it a COOL paintjob.
Version D of the Skysplitter is the BALLISTIC CONFIGURATION, which swaps out the system to Accelerated Ammo Feeder.

-Added in new fighter wing, Aznable.

8.3.8 RC3
-Changed Moa's large energy arcs from 185 to 210.
This should make the Moa more reliable in converging all of its weapons.
-Fixed Heavy Ion Lance builtins on the Scaramouche.
Now they should have the same damage as the modular version.
-Added Rhea-Class Superheavy Cruiser
This is the penultimate Mayasuran cruiser,  capable of huge broadsides typical of your average playstyle along with a sizable missile array.

8.3.8 RC2
-Changed rear large mounts of Victory (M) to composite.
*Someone* wanted semibreves.
-Fixed capitalization problem for the Spartan (M).
This should fix the linux problem.
-Updated dialogue for Pyotr

8.3.8
-Changed Avenger damage type from FRAGMENTATION TO ENERGY.
-Lowered Avenger damage from 250 to 200.
-Added ammo system to the Avenger.
This basically makes the Avenger feel like a bigger auto pulse laser. Use with expanded mags for full effect and 6.5 seconds of nonstop firing.

-Removed two medium missile mounts from Skysplitter (M)
-Added two decks to Skysplitter (M)
So this setup reflects the Mayasuran doctrine better with a focus on battlecarriers. Also, new sprite.

-Added Loyalist (M)
-Added Carnwennan (M)
-Added Spartan (M)
-Added Victory (M)

-Added in new Fleet Commander.

-Added 11 NEW SHIPGIRL portraits
Big thanks to Auxilia Genome for the art!

-Fixed Hammerhead left hardpoint position by 2 pixels.
-Fixed some descriptions
-Removed rare_bp from heavy mauler (fighter)

-Raised DPS of the Triple Beam Cannon to 1000 (From 750)
-Raised damage of the Triple Beam Cannon to 533 (From 400)
-Flux effiency of Triple Beam Cannon to 1.0 (From 1.37)

-Raised damage/sec of Heavy Ion Lance to 1000 (From 450)
This will let the Heavy Ion Lance compete with the Tachyon Lance in terms of soft flux damage for shields.

8.3.7
-Added Iapetus-Class Supertanker
Big thanks to WMGreywind and Yunru for finally giving me a logistics fuel tanker!
-Added Carnwennan-Class Railgun Frigate
-Added Spartan-Class Super Destroyer
-Added Ballistic Rangefinder as a built-in to the Javanicus
-Returned Nebulosa (M) to its Railgun form
Haha, it just feels better to use than the Avenger. Sorry for taking so long!
-Removed Active time on Safeties Switch
So this means you can have it on FOREVER.
-Fixed Zygaena and Nightingale phase cloaks to normal vanilla phase cloak.
Temporary fix until I can figure out the custom visuals.
-Changed Avenger firerate from 0.18 to 0.1 refire time.
-Lowered Avenger range from 900 to 800
-Changed Avenger damage type from ENERGY to FRAGMENTATION.
-Lowered Plasma Bomb Launcher damage from 200 to 100.
This should lower the Mako (M)'s damage significantly; but still give plenty of damage to hurt bigger ships.

8.3.6
-Changed Gyrfalcon from midline BP to Mayasura_W BP
-Finally fixed PL Revanchist claim on Mairaath
-Buffed Mithuna cargo capacity from 550 to 1200
-Lowered Avenger's range to 900 from 1000
-Lowered Avenger's firerate to 0.18 refire from 0.15
-Lowered Caliburnus firerate to 5 seconds from 3.5
-Lowered Caliburnus range to 1300 from 1600
-Lowered Caliburnus damage to 2000 from 2250

8.3.5 RC2
-Changed Skybreak's name to Skysplitter
-Changed Nebulosa (M)'s frontal large railgun to a deck, added Mega Ultraviolet Pulselaser.
This significant change in role will definitely change how you build the Nebulosa (M) along with giving it a very hefty gun and fighters to match.
-Changed Skysplitter's two front large mounts to the Avenger.
So, this change removes the modulars in exchange for the new gun, I hope you have fun with it!
-Added Invasion Mission that can be taken while under commission to take over the Lost Astropolis and Port Tse Station in the Mayasura system.
-Finally fixed relation bug in Nex, so you will be hostile to almost everyone and have allies with the persean league.

8.3.5
-Returned the Mokarran's frontal composite medium hardpoint mounts
This how the Mokarran originally was like, it's fitting to be returned back to normal.
-Added Skybreak (M)
A Nia special, but you'll enjoy my rendition with its Infernium Burn!

8.3.4 RC3
-Updated Zygaena sprite
-Changed Starliner (M)'s ship system from shuttlepod escort to infernium burn
This is a huge buff, this now encourages a short range albeit extremely dangerous playstyle involving the Starliner (M). With assault chainguns blazing, you can now get in range of most ships and alpha strike them with the Orbital Howitzer.
-Removed Starliner (MMA), Nebula (MMA), Mudskipper (MMA)/Shuttlepods
Didn't really use them.

8.3.4 RC2
-Adjusted Gyrfalcon's arcs to be more AI friendly
So, I changed up the medium's arcs to be more restricted along with the frontal energy no longer directly facing forward; which should influence the AI to broadside 100% of the time rather than 50 or even 20% of the time.
8.3.4
-Added OFFICIAL music made by Hanawub
This is HUGE, now when you encounter Mayasura in hostile, neutral or friendly terms, you'll get an absolute banger. I hope you enjoy it!
-Fixed Graphicslib issues that made you CTD
-Fixed Excalibur (M) crashing by firing on unshielded ships.

8.3.3
-Added Iruiru Plasma Grenade Launcher
This is a very new concept for me, this is my answer for a medium energy HE weapon. If you've played a certain spartan game, you will be VERY familiar with how it works.
IT IS ALSO A SYNERGY WEAPON THANKS TO 0.95
-Added Gyrfalcon Medium Cruiser
This is what you've all been waiting for, my refit version of the falcon that does... broadsides.
-Added AI to Phase Gateway
So, this is a big gamechanger for the Arjuna (M), especially if you use it in your fleets. They now have the power to TELEPORT bombers on demand, which they could always do but not without an AI.
-Added National (M)
The National gets a hefty upgrade with its secondary energy turret being able to fire missiles now.
-Added Gyrfalcon (M)
In the SAME update, the Gyrfalcon is also getting an (M) version, with the same upgraded hybrid smalls just like the regular Elite Falcon.
-Added Scaramouche (M)
For those wanting an upgraded Interceptor, the Scaramouche upgrades its medium synergy to a large synergy, amazing for a late game fleet when you need a fast ship!
-Added Tiburo (M)
The Tiburo (M) has gone from a superfighter to a superfrigate, this upgrade gives it two small hybrids in the rear, negating weaknesses to salamanders by giving you more PD options.
-Added Excalibur (M)
You will be very interested in the Excalibur now with its AMMO switching system that can't be beat!
-Added Champion (M)
I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS
-Added Mako (M) Plasma MIRV bombs.
You've all waited for this, it's finally here.
-Buffed Sentinel PD System on Javanicus (M)
So, if you didn't think the Paladin was strong enough, I've added the frag AOE from the Paladin.
-Removed Graphicslib stuff
Very much deprecated.

8.3.2 RC2
-Blocked Ops center from being installed twice on the National/Loyalist
-Fixed center left turret on the Loyalist to be 150 arc and match existing arcs.
-Returned the frontal small missile slots to the Mokarran.
-Changed Loyalist's sprite a bit.
-Buffed Argentavis' armor to 800 (From 700)
This change is due to the Enforcer getting a defensive bonus and I plan on keeping up with such changes!
-Buffed Stingray Dissipation to 450 (From 350)
-Buffed Stingray Capacity to 5500 (From 4500)
-Buffed Stingray to 95 OP (From 85)
These changes will let the Stingray excel in a more combat focused role. With focus on its three energy mediums, more spicy loadouts can be made.
-Added back in ammo system to UV pulse laser. It simply had way too good sustained DPS, this will curve it back a bit!

8.3.2
-Added National-Class Squadron Leader
This is my newest capital, capable of ruinous firepower with its three large energy turrets! You will find its firepower satisfactory for anything you mount on it!
-Added Loyalist-Class Command Frigate
This is my new frigate designed for those who like commanding from a frigate, using safety overrides and enjoying small weapons from a very... interesting chassis.
It has increased PPT of almost 7 minutes, however its toggle safety overrides' system will drain that extremely quickly.
-Added Safeties Switch System!
Toggle your safety overrides with one simple button!
-Buffed Phase Gateway Range from 800 to 1600 units.
-Updated Cjuicy's portrait with a custom made one by Gwyvern!
-Added Reinforced Bulkheads to Scaramouche (CJ)

8.3.1 RC3
-Added Heavy Ultraviolet Pulselaser
This is my FIRST Rotary gun that I've made!
-Added Scaramouche (CJ)
This one honors Cjuicy, for asking me about an HVB! I simply fulfilled his request. It doesn't have a standard portrait for now, that is in the works.

8.3.1 RC2
-Buffed Javanicus armor to 1500 (From 1400)
This is a small incremental buff to the Javanicus' armor.
-Buffed Nebulosa DP to 35 (From 38)
The Nebulosa is meant to be the cheapest capital you can field and doesn't have the full complement of decks + weapons that my other capitals have.
-Buffed Excalibur's Deceleration to 25 (From 10)
This should make the Excalibur better in terms of AI. I would say this improves the efficiency by 1000%!
-Buffed Caliburnus Railgun's range to 1600 (From 1500)
This will also help the Excalibur's AI, since it likes to keep short range despite having a 1500 range gun.
-Changed Excalibur's Price to 90000 (From 100000)
-Changed Moa DP to 25 (From 22)
-Changed Moa Price to 140000 From (120000)
-Changed Sarissa DP to 22 (From 25)
-Changed Sarissa Price to 120000 (From 140000)
This change in price/DP should reflect their roles better. The Moa is quite the strong defensive cruiser in my line up, while the Sarissa should be equal to the Eagle's DP/Price range


8.3.1
-Added Shikra Escort Carrier
-Added Shikra (M)
-Switched out the Drover for the Shikra if you choose Carrier Small (2) in Nexerelin.
The Shikra is Mayasura's new two deck carrier, it will be replacing the Stingray in the two decker role.
-Added Scaramouche Interdictor
The Scaramouche is a very fast destroyer with twin heavy ion lances.
-Added Starliner (M)
-Added Orbital Howitzer
The Starliner (M) is a heavy troop transport with a very dangerous chin cannon.
I've repurposed the Starliner Mk. II, so your saves won't break.

-Added Mokarran (K) High Value Bounty.
This one goes out to you, Kart!

-Changed Abandoned Astropolis description.
-Changed color of Onocrotalus projectiles/trail to green.
I will fluff this ingame as 'uranium' rounds!
-Stingray max flux to 4500 (From 3500)
-Made Shield Bubble Bigger
-Dissipation to 350 (From 240)
-Fighter Bays to 1 (From 2)
-Maintenance/DP to 11 (From 14)
-switched central missile to composite
-Added two smalls to the side.
-OP to 85 (From 90)
-Removed Combat/Carrier tags
The Stingray has now been changed to be more combat focused, with the addition of two smalls, its firepower has been significantly buffed with better flux handling and cheaper maintenance/DP for its new role.

8.3.0 RC2
-Javanicus PPT to 720 seconds (From 600)
-Javanicus Dissipation to 1300 (From 1200)
-These are the pre tournament stats that I'm putting back. Since the Javanicus should be Mayasura's last line of defense.
-Changed Mokarran's system back to Maneuvering Jets
These are the pre tournament stats
-Mokarran Shield Arc to 210 (From 270)
This should make the Mokarran more easily flanked, letting you use the PD weapons more.
-Mokarran OP to 300 (From 315)
Originally the Mokarran was at +130 OP, this should make it balanced at +115
-Changed Mokarran's frontal medium turrets to energy, frontal medium hardpoints to ballistics only, and the return of the large composite
This change will allow a greater variety of weapons to be used by the Mokarran.
-Removed two small energies next to the large turret, removed two small missiles.
In order for the large composite to come back to the Mokarran, other parts of the ship will have to be sacrificed.
-Sarissa OP to 145 (From 130)
-Sarissa (M) OP to 155 (From 145)
Originally the +30 OP was meant for a Heron, the +   45 from baseline is in between the Eagle and Heron, letting the Sarissa perform better.
-Fixed sunder's sprite floaters
-Moved Argentavis' central engine plume
-Removed Strike/Use vs frigates tag from the Gandiva
Hopefully this will fix some targeting issues
-Changed Patriot's default loadout to Ultraviolet Pulse Lasers
-Centered shield position for hammerhead/excalibur/sarissa
-moved stingray shield position
-Triple Beam Cannon turnrate to 10 (From 5)
This should help the TBC in firing continously on a target.
-Added Low Profile trait to Mayasura
This may make the Mayasura start *easier* but, hopefully Mayasura will not die during the first year. Still very possible with all its enemies!

8.3.0
-Multiple Sprite Changes
-Sprite Changes on most (M) ships.
In particular, the Winghead (M) has a fresh new coat of paint.
-Argentavis bound points change
-Joker bound points change
-Viper weapon mounts change/sprite change

-Tiburo price to 15000 (From 25000)
-Tiburo DP/Maintenance to 5 (From 7)
-Changed Heavy Ion Lance arc frequency to 0.2/0.3
This basically means it arcs faster, up to 5 arcs compared to the Tachyon Lance's 3.

-Added Arjuna (M)

8.2.9 RC6
-Nebulosa sprite changes
-Arjuna Flux Capacity to 14000 (From 18000)
-Arjuna Flux Dissipation to 900 (From 1000)
Did some testing, was a bit strong in over all flux. This should curtail the Arjuna, but still make it relatively good for its price/DP.
-Arjuna OP to 250 (From 260)
So, with the rearmost center medium turret removed, this left over an extra 10 OP; this should fix that.
-Changed Mokarran's system to Infernium Jets
Now, it has an effect of regular MJ, however it loses 25 of that speed in reverse.

8.29 RC5
-Buffed Gandiva DPS to 1050 (From 652)
-Changed to interruptible burst
This will allow you to shoot 1-2 shots by releasing your mouse button midburst.
-Gandiva Flux/shot to 1000 (From 1200)
-Removed Ammo from Twin Sagir Autolasers
This lets the Crossbow Bomber return to carrier as soon as its done dropping off its payload.
-Changed Arjuna's Flux Capacity to 18000 (from 12000)
-Changed Arjuna's Flux Dissipation to 1000 (From 800)
-Changed Arjuna's side turrets to mediums/removed center rear medium turret.
-Changed Arjuna's OP to 260 (From 240)
This is a very big buff and will let the Arjuna go toe to toe as a mainline battlecarrier now.
-Removed Carrier/combat tag from Arjuna
-Changed Arjuna Designation to Heavy Battlecarrier (From Siege Carrier)
-Mokarran Sprite Changes
-Arjuna Sprite Changes
-Gandiva Sprite Changes
-Excalibur Sprite Changes

8.2.9 RC4
-Arjuna sprite changes
-Added script to let you keep governorship of Mairaath even after losing it.
However, this only works if Mayasura as a faction has another planet/station besides Mairaath, otherwise you lose governorship forever.
-Changed Onocrotalus/Orchard projectile color
-Changed Gorgon SRM to mayasura_wp_bp (from base_bp)
-Changed Arbalest Battery to mayasura_wp_bp (from base_bp)
-Added Mayasuran Weapon Blueprint Package
-Changed Arjuna's universal mounts to ballistics.
-Added new ship system, capital jets
-Adjusted Javanicus' Acceleration stats to be lower, and thus slower.
-Adjusted Javanicus' Dissipation to 1200 (From 1300)
-Adjusted Javanicus' PPT to 600 seconds (From 720)
-Switched Javanicus' ship system from maneuevering jets to capital jets
These changes will bring the Javanicus more in line and less nimble.

8.2.9 RC3
-Viper and Khopesh (M) easier to find in market now. (Previously unimplemented.)
-Adjusted Gorgon SRM damage to 900 (From 600)
This should buff the crossbow bomber to have a potential of 3600 damage now rather than 2400 HE damage.
-Switched Perryi (M)'s role from fighter to bomber on the Javanicus (M)

Two things tho.

1. Had the MN pushed back the encroaching Hegemony, they still would've had no homeworld and industrial base, as that got slapped to *** by the *** Luddic ***

2. What does this mean for the Persean League in game? Do they cede Mayasura and it's surrounding system? Are they allied to the local polity?

Haha, that's the one I did the most changes to. From spritework to balancing, it should feel like a giant hammerhead.

1. I think, in this timeline only one of the stations would've gotten destroyed. I think I'll make a mission where you have to stop the rogue prometheus with a squadron of fast attack frigates/bombers before it explodes the station.

2. I plan on having Mayasura be their own faction, but keep the relationship with the Persean League locked at 100 so they're allies for life.

These are awesome!! I love the vanilla look and mid-tech sensibilities.

I especially love the Mako Heavy Bomber in both concept and execution. The bombs not only emphasize the momentum and energy of piloting the ship but also have a variety of creative uses beyond striking big ships with shields down.

Although, after playing a bit of a campaign where my fleet was primarily comprised of them, I find myself wishing for a torpedo variant that could capitalize on openings more quickly / reach through (some) point defense.

Is that a triple gauss cannon turret on the carrier? Please say yes.

Why yes, yes it is!

Can you collect them all?! This update features elite versions of the Mayasuran ships. Painted in black and blue and modernized for the sector's battlefield, the (M) versions feature increased OP, better flux stats and better refit times for their fighters!

-Changed Arjuna's system to manuevering jets
-adjusted weapon mounts on Argentavis
-thickened Mokarran's sprite near the hips
-changed winghead's weapons and sprite, now has four forward facing mediums and a small in the head, sprite upgraded generously by myself and HELMUT
-reduced winghead's OP from 155 to 145, still plenty of OP left to spare
-changed Sipahi's sprite
-added light mortar to the nose of the Sipahi
-new skins
Mokarran (M), Winghead (M), Sarissa (M), Argentavis (M)
These new skins have the Mayasuran Prime hullmod. The standard version of the Mokarran no longer has the Prime Warship hullmod now.
-new mission to test out the Prime variants
-added vigilance (M) to persean league fleets

I like alot of things about this mod, but that Triple gauss cannon takes the cake. keep up the good work
one problem tho, I can bravely find any of the ships in Persean League makets with Nexerelin, or any market for that matter. can't wait until they are their own faction, I want to get an entire fleet of them
also a small suggestion: the Tremor class could use a small boost. right now it seems outclassed by some vanilla cruisers with similar stats: to put an example the eagle costs 22 deployment points to deploy, and is slightly more expensive to maintain (+1.6 supply/mo) but has more speed, better flux ventilation, all sides covered by small energy slots for PD with a fairy large arc and more efficient shields with wider arc. Giving it a single small weapon slot covering the blind spot in the rear or widening some of the arcs of the existent ones should do the trick, right now it's a little too vulnerable to salamanders and frigates for a ship that focuses on really aggressive play

That'd be a part of Arsenal Expansion. I'll see what I can do about its flux stats, the vulnerability to flanking is an intended weakness. Try assigning an escort with strong point defense.

I think the Tachi needs some balance work. Compared to a talon:
- 25% larger wing size
- Same armament plus the situationally-superb Stinger
- 67% faster replacement
- 75% higher hitpoints per-fighter (~120% higher per wing, 190% higher per refit interval)
- 100% higher armor
- Has a flarelauncher
- 8% lower speed

Sure, it is 5 OP vs. 0--but I think there is consensus that the Talon is a steal at 0 OP, and even if that were the proper price I think it would be a fair price for no more than one of the major advantages (larger wing size, faster replacement, extra weapon, increased durability, defensive shipsystem).

I see several directions to push it:
- Keep it nearly the omnipotent superfighter it is, and cost it appropriately (15-20 OP?). Probably still reduce replacement rate; a 6-second replacement rate for a moderate-durability fighter is rather overwhelming.
- Focus on the interceptor role, keeping the proximity charge launcher but dropping everything else down to around talon levels.
- Keep it as a fast-replacing, durable interference fighter--probably drop the missile and mine (possibly re-adding a somewhat less effective secondary weapon) so that it cannot create its own openings.

Thoughts on this, Blothorn? I've adjusted it to have no flares, reduced the wing size to 3, reduced the speed to 275. Still heavily armed, but you know more of an elite feel since there's less of em.

That looks good--I think the only notable outlier remaining is the low replacement rate for the durability, but with the reduced wing size I doubt that is as much of a problem.

While I am here, some other thoughts from my PL campaign:

Now, the most upgraded Sphyrna of Mayasura's whole fleet is upgraded. Can you tame the most elite shark out there?!

New update, 8.0.5!
Mostly a balancing patch along with some buffs/nerfs to some specific ships. New content has been added with the new Ferox-Class heavy bomber along with the Mokarran (M) getting a significant buff.

Can someone verify the Winghead cruiser losing hull integrity after battles for no reason? I just won a battle and it has lost 31% of it's hp in the after battle report. Which is expensive to consistently repair over and over.

Nice mod.
Amazing looking ships. Really like all this bigger hammerhead brothers.
Two things.
Mayasuran Navy refit come with no penalty. Its straight upgrade. You could add at last some increased upkeep and increase CR cost(?) as they are more elite.
Sarrisa name. All Eagle type mid lane ships come with bird names. Eagle, falcon, heron, Gryphon(well not bird but flying), vulture(from SSP). I like this name(obviously just check my nick) but it doesn't fit really.

I like your ships, even if they are a bit overpowered, but they're near impossible to find. Or maybe I'm just not looking in the right places; what factions normally sell them?

I hope you consider giving them their own in-game faction and planet in the future so we can see their fleets flying around and bashing stuff around in Dynasector and Nexelin.

The Persean League is where I have been getting mine. Not sure any other factions even would have access to these ships due to the leagues control over the current 'remnants' of Mayasura.

Oh most definitely. The plan is to make another station orbiting Mairaath. So if you choose them in Nex, you'll have to secure your home field. I'll definitely have it up once 0.9 for Starsector rolls out.

FX Mod isn't combatible with mods that use .SKIN files that modify Vanilla ships that have the "engineSlotChanges" field filled out.  Basically, FX Mod ships don't have the same number of Engine Slots as their original Vanilla versions (the whole point is to get rid of Engines, since they're resource hogs, after all) and that causes a crash.  

I'm sorry it's causing you a problem with the mod, but that's not something I can fix for you on my end.  Best fix is to get rid of the "engineSlotChanges" field in the JSON.

Here are fixed files; just remove the .TXT extension and replace in data/hulls/skins.

Like the visual style, blends into vanilla perfectly.

Small problem running this on Linux, there is uppercase/lowercase issue with:

graphics/mayasura/ships/MSS_Brawlerhead.png

Referenced as lowercase, so either needs to be renamed to MSS_brawlerhead.png, or (keeping with the naming pattern) have
the reference corrected.

Also, gunship on superheavy destroyer to useless, do it as drone on "Tempest" and give ship "Maneuvering Jets" they are really necessary to him. On current moment this destroyer isn't necessary, better to use "Hammerhead".

Also - 2, "Winghead" need more speed(like +25), he flies more slowly than the most battleships.

Its a cosmetic component of the Sipahi bomber, not an actual weapon (now i'm curious as to what would have happened if I had tried to install it on a ship).

-Adjusted blueprints to have icons setup.
-Fixed the pilgrim from not being able to be built from a blueprint.
-Added the no_drop tag to the (M) Blueprint package.
-Redone sprite for the Cruiser Javanicus, added back into fleets.

Quick patch to solve those last bugs.

How come the faction has no existing relations with any other upon start?
Is this intentional?

Ty for the mod, i look forward to trying out the big hammerheads :)

Haha, I try my hardest! It's been a year since I started modding. I'm actually kinda glad that so many people are playing with my ships. I'm actually taking up some programming so I can learn how to do some java scripts of my own instead of relying on others, so please look forward to that!

they are a part of the Persian League i believe, not a faction unto themselves. the mod description covers something about them being defeated by the Hegemony and them being owned by the League

Faction's in the works. Meanwhile, I'm sidelining them to the Persean League cause they own Mayasura. Rest assured you'll see the Mayasurans with their new homeworld soon! I've been waiting for 0.9 to properly implement them as a faction.

Post by: Darloth on November 29, 2018, 04:29:06 PM
Honestly they could do with at least one standout design that is mostly Sindrian.  The Hegemony have their auxiliaries and 14th, and the Persean League are basically Midline Tech The Empire...

Sindria is sortof half way between low and midline (as far as I can tell) but with less character than the Hegemony nowadays.

I think they should get a ship or two in sleek purple trim... perhaps, indeed, Lionguard variants?

Horribly offtopic for THIS thread though.

The Diktat has the Lions Guard sub-faction which have the high/mid tech ships over the usual hege low/mid fleets.

Could be a great mod.

Mayasuran allies/subfaction to the league is it self a very fun addition as is.

I am running into same issue as FahadXray.  I have 2 versions of your mod.  8.1.2 and 8.1.3RC2.  I am assuming that I install the 8.1.2 and then install other version on top of that overwriting previous files?  The difference in sizes are 12mb for 8.1.2 and 6mb for 8.1.3RC2.  So not sure what is happening but I can play starsector without this mod active no issues.  If I am doing something wrong please point me in the right direction.

UPDATE: Issue is with the hotfix as version 8.1.2 loads fine but if I install the hotfix that is when I get issues with ship_system.csv file.

Hmm? The 8.1.3 RC2 is the latest version, so it's required to delete the entire folder before extracting, no overwriting. Likewise, you can stick with 8.1.2 to keep your current save and just download the new version when I release it to start a new save.

First of all, thanks for your mod! I've been enjoying it in starsector 0.9.

Summary:
Would it be possible to get a download link for the old version: [0.8.1a] Mayasuran Navy 8.0.9?

Explanation:
As a new player to starsector after 0.9, I've played through the new version several times now. Meanwhile, I have seen so much about Nexerelin around the community and I enjoy 4x style games, so I wanted to try that experience as well on a separate 0.8.1a starsector install. Thus the interest in the old faction version for 0.8.1a.

Meanwhile, I have seen so much about Nexerelin around the community and I enjoy 4x style games, so I wanted to try that experience as well on a separate 0.8.1a starsector install. Thus the interest in the old faction version for 0.8.1a.

There ya go.

Really enjoy the mod. Love the ship designs, sincerely really love the concept -- thank-you. At the risk of being someone that hasn't read the previous replies very closely, am wondering if a re-envisioned, never-downed Mayasuran system is on the way?

Hello Knight Chase.

First of all, thank you for this mod! You made the only ship set mod, that fits to my way of outfitting ships....

But, there is one weird thing going on recently since latest version....the ship market rarely provides you with (M) versions of the particular ships and so far I have not seen after playing for a longer time a single (M) capital ship in the shop display. So, only a Hammerhead, Sunder or Mako here and then...but no larger ship in blue, only tons of them as normal version. :/

Did you set the percentual chance too low? ^^

Title: Re: [0.9a] Mayasuran Navy 8.1.5 RC4
Post by: Avanitia on January 31, 2019, 06:49:59 PM
(M) skins are supposed to be rare versions of base ships, similar to XIV Battlegroup skins.
Makes finding one a significant event in playthrough.

Going out in the outer sector and looking for their blueprints may yield better results, at least for me it did so.
Title: Re: [0.9a] Mayasuran Navy 8.1.5 RC4
Post by: Igncom1 on February 01, 2019, 02:50:09 AM
I frequently find M ships at civilian markets as they seem the best source for ship in the current game edition.

M Hammerheads are simply some of the best ships in my opinion.
Title: Re: [0.9a] Mayasuran Navy 8.1.5 RC4
Post by: Kreuzberger on February 01, 2019, 05:31:44 AM
Civilian markets?!

I was all the time traveling to all the military bases....maybe that explains it. At the other hand, finding a big one at the normal places is also like searching the unicorn....


So, ok. You made it super special to find one. Poor me. :P

Yeah in the current game version ships of all kinds are common enough in the civilian market place, but now we can't buy weapons worth crap.

I think that sprite needs a bit more work, here's the stuff that stands out to me:

The belly hole looks odd.
Conning tower looks misplaced, too far forward/no volume?
Tail appears flat and sticks out too far, edges are sloppy imo.
Engines don't appear to connect to a power plant.
Sides appear to have sheer walls, looks flat.
The area between the two rear turrets, lines lead nowhere, asymmetry in descending diagonals, despite the ship being symmetrical.
Ship appears to lack body in general.

I'm at work, so I unfortunately can't mark the areas visually. Maybe post it in the sprite judgement thread? They're probably more constructive than me, besides, I'm not a sprite artist.

Title: Re: [0.9a] Mayasuran Navy 8.1.5 RC4
Post by: Kittah Khan on February 07, 2019, 02:56:06 AM
Front, engines and tail look a lot better now.

The connective point between the two rear turrets still needs work.
I feel like the tail needs to be pushed up a bit, this will also allow a bit more room for the engines.
The conning tower could probably do with a bit more armoring in front?
The sides should probably be extended a bit, with a slope, this should also add some more room for engines.
Another option is to add more shading to the sides suggesting a slope, but having the weapon mounts shaded to suggest a platform around them?

Once I get back home, I could do some crude cutting and pasting.
EDIT: fiddled around a bit, couldn't get something I liked beyond pushing the tail up a bit.

Is it intended for the Manta to have no real niche in a fleet? As it stands, it just feels like a weak carrier someone tried last minute to make into a destroyer, that's pretending to be a frigate.

It's not fast, it's not durable, the firepower is laughable, and there's no reason to ever pick this thing over a carrier if I want strike craft. Everytime I try to use this thing, it gets bulldozed by anything that catches it - which is most things. I think it's legitimately the only purpose-built destroyer that gets *** on by frigates. At least the Hammerhead can take a hit and give it back.

Are you talking specifically about the Manta (M)? Or the base version? Because the regular Manta - as in, the not-blue-and-silver Mayasuran one - is part of Disassemble Reassemble (link with the ship in question in the signature below).

Post by: ThePollie on April 22, 2019, 07:10:52 AM
Both, while we're at it, but the base version isn't proper related.

Objectively the non-Mayasuran model is a thousand times worse. Burn Drive is easily one of the worst systems in the game, but the (M) Manta isn't that much better. The Falcon is a faster ship which has better firepower to boot, with superior shields and maneuverability. If the AI was intelligent enough to use it as a fringe out-fighter and just hunt down vulnerable carriers and flanking frigates, it wouldn't be so bad. As it is, bringing one is a waste of an already limited fleet pool, as the ship practically self-destructs if anyone eyes it weirdly.

I have lost track of how many I've lost the last few days literally within the first 30 seconds of the engagement to mere strike craft and skirmishes with frigates and other fast destroyers. It's niche just seems to be this really awkward extreme-early game where you only use it because you somehow found one and have nothing else to use.

"Burn drive is easily one of the worst systems in the game"
Then explain how Dominators and Onslaughts both can cleave a fleet in half with the liberal use of said burn drive. Sure, your shields don't work and you can't cancel out of a poorly executed burn, but the sheer fact that a ship can hurl itself at you and negate any range advantage you might have is frightening.

I think many of your perceived balance issues can be solved by playing the base, vanilla game for a while. It'll teach you really quickly what works and what doesn't.

Might be the part where I've seen countless allied ships either burn into suicidal situations and die having accomplished nothing, or be in prime spots TO burn and then decide to slog it as the slowest speed possible.

I'd rather a flare launcher. At least it's inconsistent but free-use PD. Hell, I'd rather an option to just disable systems entirely. At least then I don't have to worry about my fleet deciding to kill themselves because they can't grasp the most basic tactics. My favourite sight is the ship I just bought deciding to burn drive into a force armed with torpedoes, who are plenty intelligent enough to fire them at the predictably moving, unshielded target.

But what do I know. I'm just an angry 14-16 year old who hates anything remotely not-perfect.

Can you post the loadouts you've been using for Manta and Manta (M)?

I've never had a big issue with it outside of occasional AI deep which resulted in it being heavily damaged, AI makes mistakes, just like player - I don't have an issue with that, would be pretty boring if it didn't make them.

Loadout I use with both Manta and Manta(M):
2x Ion Cannon in small energy hardpoints
2x railguns in small turrets with frontal arcs
2x vulcans in small turrets covering the engines
1x burst pd or other weapon I see fit in the turret in the back with very large arc.
For fighters - Broadswords or Claws.
Hullmods - Resistant Flux Conduits, maybe something else

Since you flatly refuse to carry the Manta discussion over to Disassemble Reassemble's thread - cos, really, the Manta (M) is better than the regular one in basically all regards (I was shown its stats last night, and the only worse one was the higher supply cost) - I guess I'll post some Manta feedback here. Apologies in advance to Knight Chase.


Just gonna get one thing out of the way first: Why do you compare the Manta to a Falcon? The Falcon is a CRUISER. Sure, a light cruiser. But the Manta is a light destroyer for all intents and purposes. You can't complain that the Manta is worse than the Falcon because... well... it is. As it should be. You're comparing a destroyer to a cruiser. ??? Please don't do this if you ever want to hear a sensible reaction.

Now then.

The overshadowed “third wheel” of the Hammerhead and Sunder rivalry, the slippery Manta is a midline destroyer that can leave most frigates eating its wake. The ship is comparable to its heavier cousins by its wide shield and middling logistical stats, but differs with its focus on lighter weaponry and a more powerful engine assembly. The Manta's gun mounts are undersized if versatile, but it has the ability to support a wing of fighter craft which amplify its combat potential tenfold. The fast destroyer is let down by relatively low integrity, and a tendency to outrun its own fighters when it activates its burn drive.

The Manta is a "fast destroyer", but is really just a light destroyer with a mobility system and higher-than-normal burn speed. You might try comparing it to the Shrike, the high-tech light destroyer. Both the ships have high base speeds, aggressive mobility systems, and fragile hulls. While the Shrike totes a classic high-tech flux grid and good weapon mounts to make use of it, the Manta has only a few small mounts, but it actually maintains a standard destroyer flux capacity for them. It works well with expensive weapons like Antimatter Blasters.

The Manta also has a fighter bay. That makes it kinda powerful, and also very versatile. Granted it lends itself to fast fighters, but what's wrong with them? The Manta can't really put up much of a punch on its own (unless you slap on Antimatter Blasters of course), but can easily augment its weaponry with launched fighters.

With a high base speed and a Burn Drive on top of it, AND a wing of fighters, the Manta is highly adept at catching enemy destroyers and frigates, pouncing from a decent distance, perhaps even using its fighters to lock a target down in prelude to burning in. It has the shield and flux handling to make a meal of small targets, and enough armour underneath to absorb a little punishment from something a bit bigger if it needs to drop shields for more firepower. Let's not forget also that a fighter bay means it can sacrifice personal PD weaponry in favour of full offensive weapons, if it chooses to equip an interceptor like Talons (or the Honeybee from the same mod).

Against bigger targets? You're not going to have much luck outside of kiting and harrassing, and with a system like Burn Drive, that's not hugely great for the Manta to be doing. It doesn't have the punch to deal damage to anything bigger, and its speed becomes less useful against slower and slower targets. The Manta is in its element in smaller fleets as a secondary destroyer, or medium fleets as a pursuit vessel. Or, very small fleets as a player flagship. Have you tried piloting one against some pirate frigs? It's a blast, seriously.

Finally, do you actually have a problem with the Manta? Or do you just have a problem with the Burn Drive? Because neither me nor Chase can do anything about that. As Soren says, if you have a problem with the base game, go whinge to Alex, not us modders.


Btw, just in case you didn't know - but I'm guessing you did because this entire "feedback" block feels like targetted negative - the Manta is one of DaRa's most popular ships. :D Sorry it doesn't work for you, but hey, I can't make everyone happy.

Post by: ThePollie on April 23, 2019, 06:01:32 AM
First, my discussion was about the Mayasuran Manta, not the DR Manta.

Second, I don't expect a destroyer to out-shoot a cruiser, that'd be silly. But it's a little off-putting when the destroyer losing overwhelmingly to a cruiser that also has little difficulty catching it. The Falcon ought to out-shoot a destroyer, even if not by the widest margin. But I don't think a light destroyer should be so easily caught by one.

The Manta mostly lends itself to fast fighters because slow bombers are, honestly, over-tuned on OP for the already OP strained ship. Thunder interceptors are my usual go-to choice, since they are both cheap and multi-role, providing kinetic damage to stress shields and EMP to disable targets -Since, honestly, the Manta is way too fragile to receive return fire.

High base speed? It's 100, compared to the Hammerhead's 90 and Lasher's 120. Two examples I use because they're both fairly common but also both ships that I find often out-fight the Manta. In a straight fight, neither ship generally fail to overpower a Manta. Hence why I like Thunders. A quick EMP on engines and guns will ensure the Manta's paper-thin defense doesn't become the deciding factor. Even still, I've quickly become a fan of Unstable Injectors to better negate that. I haven't been fond of the module in the past, since I generally go with Safety Overrides if I want speed - or simply a faster ship - but it's unbelievably frustrating to watch a Lasher drop his autoloader and steamroll a Manta, who simply can not disengage.

The Infernium Drive is nice, but I find the AI too willing to use it on cooldown to get around the map. I've had similar issue with vanilla Shrikes and Dassault Vespers, and they often get into an engagement without it ready and suffer for it.

I also haven't found much of a need for PD on the Manta. The engines are incredibly well protected. I find Salamanders and the like don't seem programmed to target the actual engines and often just hit the tail, failing entirely to do anything meaningful.

Frankly, I have an issue with both. The Burn Drive is an obnoxious ship system. If it at least had some sort of marker to tell you where you'd be when it ends, I might like it more. But honestly, I can't count the times I've easily slagged otherwise durable enemies because I caught them mid-burn and can freely dump damage into them while they're powerless to deploy shields or change facing. For the Manta, it often feels starved for OP and weapon mounts. The two nose Energy mounts are awkward to fit, and I often leave them bare for the OP. Thunder Interceptors or Broadswords are common flights, since they're OP-lax and effective at plugging gaps in the ship's onboard weapons, which I usually fit two light-dual autocannons and either an EMP cannon or a light assault gun. Unstable Injector, Aux' thrusters - unless I can get a captain with Evasive maneuvers. The rest in vent/caps, favouring the former.

The ship comes across as an awkward thing. It feels designed to only be used very early, where it should only encounter heavily D-modded pirate frigates, but at the same time is incredibly rare to actually find, so generally isn't found early on. The last time I had found a Manta was after I'd already set up two colonies. But by then I have a Victory and four Wingheads, with three Herons supporting, and four Alastors and Wrens with Unstable Injectors as pursuit craft. Where does the Manta fit in there?

ThePollie comments betray a profound lack of understanding of starsector gameplay and proper respect, but they do hint at a slight problems I have noticed about mayasuran modified ship. The hit to deployment point cost is far too big for what they provide. Remember that deployment cost is the only thing that set the "value" of a ship. Both the (M) Hammerhead and sunder get +2 (or was it +3) DP. This should give them a roughtly 20% edge on their normal cousin. The Manta (M) at 11 DP should compete with the normal Sunder/drover yet fail to do so, mostly due to to the very small amount of points it gets for equipment. A sunder with converted hangar still got 20 points more than a manta for the same number of DP. The flexibility of the manta (speed, fighter, weapon together) does have a cost however and therefore it can find some place in a fleet.

It does get really bad with other ship however. For the same DP as a falcon an Argentavis got the exact same stats or inferior. The lesser cost of campaign hullmod (because its a destroyer) is offset by the 20 less points it has for equipment and the shorter range it can get. Is the drone system good enough to justify taking it over a ship that has the same value yet is superiors in many way (flux, speed, range, armor)? I am not convinced. Now slightly inferior ship of the same cost is nothing to worry about. But the (M) version of falcon and Argentavis has some real problem. A 30% increase in deployment cost for almost negligible improvement is one of the rare obvious balance problem I have encountered with the mod.

As far as sprite and ship goes however, this mod is great. They all look cool, and the unique ship are fun to play with. Lots of polish in the general presentation. General balance is preserved as while some ship are inferiors none are obviously superior to vanilla. The theme fits well with the lore.

I wouldn't say that. There is a point where certain Marasuran ships are flat upgrades. The only real "issue" is the increased logistics cost, but when you're rolling three Atlases and twenty million credits, you stop caring about that, and the advantages of the Hammerhead over the base model is all that matters. That extra armour and rear twin-flak are nice.

Though the irony of saying I lack "proper" respect is not surprising, coming from this community.

RE uses of the Manta late-game: Alternate pursuit vessel. It's got the speed and guns of a frigate, coupled with the hull integrity and flux grid of a light destroyer, plus a fighter bay. Treat it like a frigate, not a destroyer, if it helps. The only downside is that you can't deploy it from the sides of a fight.

(100 speed is as high as pilotable destroyers go in vanilla, with or without a mobility system. It's not slow.)
Title: Re: [0.9a] Mayasuran Navy 8.1.9
Post by: ThePollie on April 24, 2019, 04:50:41 PM
Slow is relative. 100 might be enough to ensure a 90 speed ship can't escape you, but it that's irrelevant if he can kill you in the time it takes for that 10 difference to get you in range to fire on him. You could burn toward him, but now that's one less option for a disengage if this suddenly one-eighties, and god knows the AI isn't the best at deciding these things.

The M variant is infinitely better, I'm not arguing that. Just that the AI doens't seem to grasp how best to wield it, and it feels like I'm just burning money whenever I opt not to personally fly it. My hands, I stalked the flanks and pounced on isolated Condors and Drovers, making their lives hell as their escorts struggle either to catch or out-fight me. In the AI hands? I routinely see them act like they're a Dominator and go full-bore into the thick of it and get vaporized by legitimately beefy ships.

As a pursuit ship, I generally prefer Wrens and Alastors. Besides being faster and better able to catch prey, they are cheaper and easier to deploy en-masse, which is a force multiplier, and they have more rapid action capacity with missile-fitted mounts. An Alastor with a twin railguns, a reaper and extended racks, with an aggressive captain can easily blitz even heavier destroyers and trashcan them. Sure, they're garbage for extended fights, but I only need them to be a monster for thirty seconds to run down fleeing ships.

For what it is, the Manta is alright, it just feels like it's trying to do more than it ought to, and it just results in a jack-of-all-trades, and I'd really rather just bring a specialist I know will do the job I gave it, rather than send a Manta and hope doesn't fall short. I do love it as an early game flagship, though. I think it shines in small-unit engagements where most of my opponents are D-modded to hell, often are forced to duel their target without hope of getting relieved, and where their single flight deck isn't being swept by massed-PD coming from half a dozen cruisers and carriers.

It's just that isn't a part of the game that lasts very long, and I often wind up settling a colony before I ever find a Manta to even use, even when I'm willing to shell out the cash to buy a pristine model somewhere.

... The extra logistic cost is precisely why the mayasuran ship are quite inferior to their vanilla equivalent. Not because it cost too much, but because it directly limit the number of ship you can bring in a battle. If you were to field only hammerhead you could sent 10 vanilla ship for every 8 mayasuran one (if i remember well the cost of 10 deployment point for the (m) ship). Now it might certainly be argued that loosing 20% of your fleet number is worth the small increase in flux/armor but it simply isn't a "flat upgrade". No matter the amount of resource you have, deployment cost is all that matter if you can fill your side of the battle. Its the very reason why a 60 deployment cost hammerhead would be useless even if you had infinite supply.

If you don't mind the Manta in its element (early game and small fleets), what are you complaining about then? I don't think I'm following anymore. If you're positive the problem is confined to just the Manta (M), then what might you recommend to fix it? (If the problem extends to the regular Manta, same question, but please reply in DaRa's thread.)

@lethargie Perhaps, but from what I've seen of the stat buffs, I'd say it's worth it. You get a lot of extra armour and flux handling. And it's only +2 deployment points btw; regular Manta is 9. That price is mostly to account for the fighter bay, since carriers are still very powerful, and since the (M) version gives it a fighter buff too (if an indirect one), I think the price increase is deserved.

Post by: ThePollie on April 25, 2019, 06:24:09 AM
Because "it's good for the first five minutes of the game and is a total trap to use for the rest" isn't a niche. We already have enough ships like that in the junker, ugly pirate lines of ships, we don't need entire mods further adding to that.

How I'd fix it? Personally, I'd change the forward nose guns to hybrids and the middle hybrid to a universal. I find the energy slots are often the most awkward to fit, and are routinely left emptied in a lot of my rigs. Broadening the rear gun arcs to allow them to fire forward could be interesting. I often leave them empty because rear security with the Manta is a novel waste of OP most of the time. The lack of a missile slot makes it difficult for this ship to effectively dive on opportunities unless you're willing to sit at 90% flux after firing a pair of anti-matter blasters, which is effectively suicide if literally anything moves on you.

A ship-specific module to slightly reduce OP for fighters could help relieve the stranglehold on OP the ship has. I often take Thunders or Broadswords specifically because they'er so OP-lax, and I've humoured Talons once or twice.

Reduced DP, as well. It feels wildly off that a base and even Mayasuran Hammerhead are cheaper to field while also being consistently better in combat. Three Manta(Ms) are 33 DP. 28 is a Heron and Hammerhead, which has the advantage of three missile mounts, a more easily fitted expanded flight deck, and the autoloader to brute force duels. 30 DP for twin Falcons, which can both kite larger cruisers, but still pack the punch to bully destroyers, and the maneuverability to challenge frigates.

  I forgot the (M) version boosted fighter, that is an important thing to remember while discussing balance. Actually I went and read the mayasuran prime hullmod description now. I still think its not worth it except on dedicated carrier. 25% more deployment cost gives you 4% flux stat and 100 armor. There is no way this is worth it if you don't have fighters. 25% increased deployment cost should translate roughly to a 25% increase in power (with diminishing return for large ship since concentrated power offer some perks)

@ThePollie Actually I would give the 3 manta some pretty good chances to kill the hammerhead + heron. If they load on interceptors they can neutralize most of the heron threat while focusing on the hammerhead since they are faster. Whats more likely to happen I think is a kind of stalemate with cr decay since the manta lack armor piercing firepower and arent that much faster.

I'd give three of most ships good odds of beating two of most ships, excluding a massive weight disadvantage. My point was more that I can either take these two ships or these three ships, and the Heron/Hammerhead combo generally provides better results in a fleet setting.

In a vacuum engagement? I figure the Hammerhead and Heron separate, because AI be how it do, and one of the two gets 2v1'd or even 3v1'd and run over instantly.

Just wanted to give a quick shoutout to the team responsible for this mod - great stuff, I appreciate all your work.

I haven't fully explored the mod by doing a dedicated Mayasuran campaign, but what I've used so far has been well balanced, remarkably well polished, and appears to integrate very well with the game.

In my current campaign, I stumbled on a Mayasuran cruiser BP package fairly early on. When I founded my first colony and the Veriditas movement was born, those cruisers were the only heavy standoff power the faction was able to muster. The first lean years were relatively peaceful, and I neglected any military buildup in favor of industrial development. During that time, a Javinicus (M) BP came up for sale at Freeport. Tired of scrambling every time the Hegemony decided to perform an unlawful inspection, I couldn't resist adding a true anchor to the BP catalog. 6-months of bankruptcy later, the cumulative economic output of now two worlds resulted in the christening of the first ship-of-the-class - the "Resplendent".

The Resplendent mounts a full complement of Diable-designed Artassaut revolver cannons, coordinated by state-of-the-art integrated point defense, integrated targeting, & gunnery control AI. Twin Monstro turrets, a pair of State support beams, and an array of torpedo launchers at the bow provide offensive capabilities. When it first undocked from the orbital construction yards of Nareth, it promised a new era of security for the young world. A promise it had the opportunity to keep just days later as a large Diable expedition entered the system.

Over 1000 faction casualties, and more than a million credits of lost hulls, weapons, and supplies later, the Resplendent has now spent nearly 3-months engaged in constant back-to-back warfare supporting the battlestation in orbit against Diable and the Hegemony. An ORA fleet is en-route. If the Veriditas Movement survives these dark times, it will be by being carried on the back of the Mayasuran-designed battlecruiser. Mayasura is not forgotten, the spirit lives on.

Once again, bravo mod team!

One bit regarding all the discussion of Mayasuran (M) ships that I don't think I've seen addressed: the increased supply cost of deployment does not actually increase the DP cost to deploy, just the cost to supplies to recover the CR after battle. So you're not actually fielding fewer ships unless you lack the supplies to pay for it.

At least, that's what I'm seeing right now in game alt-tabbing back and forth. Same deal with (D) mod ships in vanilla - they're cheaper to deploy, but you can't actually field more at once.

The tooltip shows increased supply cost to deploy, but the actual DP cost measured at the bottom of the window when deploying ships only increases by the base amount instead of the modified amount. Again, same as (D) mods (in order to prevent 20 DP onslaughts or silliness like that).

That said, I wouldn't say blatantly overpowered but I haven't had much time to spend with their ships (just a couple of recovered blueprints).

I wanted to say that it didn't increase DP cost too, but I don't have the most current Mayasuran version yet so I don't know if that since changed or if my unreliable memory is completely off in the first place.

IIRC, the Mayasuran "elite" ships (don't recall the actual designation) have small stat buffs compared to the base variants at the cost of increase in logistic costs, specifically supplies.  I believe it works similarly in other mods like SWP's Cabal Ships, and the mods of a few others that contain "elite" versions.

Even Vanilla has some of this with their "elites" being Hegemony XIV versions of some ships, whose buffs include flux dissipation, capacity, and especially Armor.  Except instead of a higher logistics cost, those are marginally slower than the base versions.  That speed penalty is supposed to be the countermeasure, I suppose.  But really, who chooses an Onslaught XIV for speed anyways?

[Just downloaded the newest version of Mayasuran Navy now.  I can confirm, that the increase in supply/deployment cost from the Mayasuran Prime thing does NOT increase DP combat "width".]

Okay, so I've tried and tested the Manta (M) out a little bit.

It was fun.  Really fun, actually.  Very refreshing from my usual piloting of Capitals and some Cruisers.

Here was my loadout:
1x Crossbow Heavy Bomber (Mayasuran Prime ships get a -2 OP cost to bombers, it's hidden in its description)
2x Ion Cannons, front energy mount
2x Railguns, front ballistic turret
1x Dual LMG, central turret
2x Reliant HMG, rear turrets (from SWP)
ITU
Rest OP in vents

First thing of note is that the Crossbow is, effectively, a Fighter-Bomber.  In addition to its Gorgon missiles, it also has a twin energy weapon thing on the front.  You can actually deploy the bomber against other bombers and fighters and they'll indeed shoot them down.

Second thing of note is its maneuverability special.  Unlike the regular Manta's Burn Drive, the Manta(M)'s drive has two charges, lasts a shorter amount of time, allows for a little bit of turning during the burn, and allows the Manta to keep shields on while in use.  The last point is neat as it's insurance against getting an unlucky rocket or EMP blast to the face while in transit, which can otherwise be fatal.  When player controlled, I'd say that the Manta(M) handles much better than the regular Manta simply due to that.

The PD is kind of for missile and fighter defense, but it's also for making the most out of targets of opportunity: Stranded frigates/Destroyers.  Burn directly into them, overwhelm their shields with ballistic fire, de-teeth them with the ion cannons, and finish with the Crossbows.  If the Crossbows hit, a frigate is probably dead and a DD (or most cruisers) is seriously hurting, and is vulnerable to follow-ups from others in the fleet due to disabled systems by the ion cannon.

If no such target of opportunity currently exists, though, you can still harass near-peer Destroyers with Railguns + Ion Cannons + Bombers without charging into the opponent's battle lines.

The Manta(M) still sucks at doing much to heavy DDs and higher, at least not alone.  There are some exceptions though: I've been able to take out Disassemble Reassemble's Barricade combat freighter which is cruiser-sized.  Granted it's a combat freighter, but I still think it's not bad considering the Barricade has 2 fighter slots and the Manta(M) has only 4 or 5 small hardpoints available at any one time outside of point blank range.

I definitely wouldn't deploy it first in a huge battle dominated by capital ships, but it's definitely going to see use in pursuit settings.  It's my favorite small ship to come out of this mod.

Balance trade-off is certainly a subjective thing and I would not want to argue about the value of speed vs armor vs etc.... That being said Supply cost is not in any way shape or form a countermeasure to any kind of in combat bonus. It is nil, neglectable and forgettable. If what you say about mayasuran ship is true, they have increased stats with absolutely no downside. Thus its not a discussion about balance, its a discussion about whether vanilla ship should receive boost without trade-off. Now I understand that some vanilla ship are stronger than other, but generally there is no "copy but stronger".

Supply consumption is a fun campaign specific mechanic that does improve the general feeling of the games and allow to link a bit more different parts of the game. I appreciate that it was added, It's just not a meaningful variable for the balance of the ships.

Well it kinds of become a significant balancing factor when you maxed out your deployment points. And in the early game it is important too until you can get that money snowball rolling. In mid game though it is indeed irrelevant.

Though I do agree that DP is just about the only significant balancing factor late game, that only applies if the DP is adjusted. I just downloaded the current Mayasuran Navy version to test and was able to verify, using Console Commands, that Mayasuran ships do not raise the DP cost of ships with the Mayasuran Prime Warship hullmod as they should.

This means that in the endgame, Mayasuran ships are straight upgrades compared to vanilla mid-line combat wise. The problem may have to do with the D-mod changes as they are also hullmods that affect supply recovery costs while not touching DP cost.

The attached pictures are proof after using console commands and running SIM that DP cost is unaffected.

So I realize Tartiflette comment might have been a misunderstanding. What SaphirreSage said is true but had been established earlier in the thread (but not as extensively proven). Is there an established nomenclature which I may have misused about the present subject?
to reiterate:
Supply cost: Cost paid after the battle to recuperate CR (Irrelevant to balance)
Deployment cost: "space" taken by the ship on the deployment screen (Extremely relevant to balance)

So (M) version of normal ship have supply cost penalty but no Deployment cost penalty. This makes them straight upgrade over several vanilla ship.

Now I don't think this it is inherently bad, but it does make the (M) version like an inverse D-Mod. It is a dangerous slope for balance at least. The hull are rare enough that it doesn't matter too much for now at least.

I'd like to note again that this thing with "premium" with overall small buffs at a logistic (but not deployment) cost is not limited to this mod.  SWP has the Cabal variants of many high-tech vessels, and Interstellar Imperium had some sort of elite version of some of their ships, though I don't recall what that hull-mod was called and it could very well change once it gets released for Starsector 0.9.

8.2.0
-Removed Spoonbill, save breaker
-Added Heron (M)
-Added Orchard Autocannon, Medium High Explosive Ballistic.
-Added Heavy Ion Lance, Large Energy Beam.
-Adjusted Conquest (M)'s frontal medium energy turrets to hybrids.
-Adjusted Launch Speed of Gorgon SRM to 180 from 100, Hitpoints to 230 from 150. Made overall flight characteristics faster: Turn acceleration to 550 from 210. Turn rate to 140 from 70.
-Adjusted Winghead's hybrid mounts to energy for the smalls, rearmost small turrets adjusted to face rearwards and the composite medium mounts adjusted to synergy.
-Adjusted Mokarran's frontal turrets on its head to be energy, adjusted arcs to be more versatile instead of just frontal facing. Frontal medium hardpoints adjusted to ballistic only.
-Adjusted Bomber refit times.

Just a couple new weapons and some more balancing. Spoonbill switched to an actual modernized Heron, should provide a 3 deck carrier with the (M) buffs for bombers.

Got me a Winghead and

a) was really excited to possess a cruiser with my fave "Accelerated Ammo Feeder".  OH YES a big hammerhead!

b) ...only to find that the max forward ballistic mounts for it are two mediums.  It is effective but not the storm of fire I was hoping to drop on an enemy.  I suppose I could turn broadside to use the large and medium mounts that are rear facing...am I really supposed to use this beast as a broadsider?  Gotta get me extended shields if that is case...

c) ...however the built-in hullmod "heavy weapons integration" doesn't appear to actually save 10 OP points when I mount a large weapon.

d)  I should say that the number of small energy weapons that the Winghead can bring to bear in the forward arc is really impressive...so as a suppression build it rocks.  It just makes me sad to build around the accelerated ammo feeder...perhaps replace with high energy focus?  Or give it a mobility ship system?

It is an odd ship to say the least.

I have not found a use for either the Winghead or the Mokarran. The Mokarran cost 42 OP and delivers a pretty sub par performance I think. Feels like the fire power of a cruiser, with poor shields, meh armour, and speed of a capital. Its armour is kinda meh compared to other poor shield capitals (Onslaught) which is less OP to field and will wreck most ships, the Mokarran for sure.

The Winghead with its main battery facing the back is just strange for firepower/shield facing forward type of ship. It also follows the Mokarran in meh kind of stats. This ships at least has solid armour for its class. Maybe a damage sponge for meathead AI? But why when I can field 1.5 Patriots with high energy focus, omni shields, only 200 less armor, good weapons coverage, and 25 more speed. I am pretty sure the loss of a weird facing large turret is worth it. Even the Apogee would knife fight this thing for fun and do it with less OP.

I am honestly at a loss for both these ships. They just don't make sense to me on why I would field them over what I feel are way better options. I would field and Conquest or an Arjuna way before the Mokarran, we all know the conquest is not the cream of the crop. As mentioned, I would field a Patriot, Apogee or Sarrisa way before the Winghead.

I might be being a tad hard on these two ships but I honestly just don't see the point of either.

I might be being a tad hard on these two ships but I honestly just don't see the point of either.
The Mokarran was much better in the past.
Here is the list of changes I've made since 0.8, though I've come to see that they might not be the best.
Mokarran vs Mokarran 0.9
315 OP
Top speeed 55->40
acceleration 25->20
deceleration 20->15
Max turn rate 8->6
turn acceleration 6->4
shield arc 300->90
shield efficiency 1.0->1.2
frontal medium ballistic turrets -> frontal medium energy turrets
frontal hybrid smalls -> frontal energy smalls
frontal mediuim composites -> frontal medium ballistics
frontal large composite -> frontal ballistic composite
As for the Winghead, it had four converging medium ballistics along with 5 hybrid smalls that could also fire forward. In combination with AAF, it shredded a lot of targets, so I'm thinking of switching everything on the head of the Winghead to ballistic and going back to the original configuration of two synergy/two composite medium hardpoints and a hybrid small turret up front.

This is very insightful, so thank you for the feedback!

Edit:
Here are my proposed changes, this should turn the Mokarran back into its 0.8 form with a couple minor changes.
-Mokarran buffs to speed and manuverability, firepower, defense.
Top speed 40->50
Acceleration 20->25
Max turn rate 6->8
Turn acceleration 4->6
Shield Arc 90->270
Shield efficiency 1.2->1.1
Frontal medium energy turrets -> frontal medium ballistic turrets
frontal energy small turrets -> frontal hybrid small trurets
frontal medium ballistic hardpoints -> frontal medium composite hardpoints
I've done some testing with these changes and I'm sure it will more than deserve that 42 DP spot.

Go ahead and redownload, the changes are up.

8.2.0 RC2
-Mokarran buffs to speed and manuverability, firepower, defense.
Top speed 40->50
Acceleration 20->25
Max turn rate 6->8
Turn acceleration 4->6
Shield Arc 90->270
Shield efficiency 1.2->1.1
Frontal medium energy turrets -> frontal medium ballistic turrets
frontal energy small turrets -> frontal hybrid small trurets
frontal medium ballistic hardpoints -> frontal medium composite hardpoints
-Winghead mounts change
Frontal synergy hardpoints changed to composite.
Rear large turret changed to 360 arc.
Rear large turret changed to energy from hybrid.
-Orchard Cannon changes
Damage 220->100
Flux Cost 270->160
OP 12->10
Added experimental trails, requires magiclib.

Edit: Final changes for now. This makes the Winghead the premier heavy cruiser.
8.2.0 RC3
-Winghead was maybe a bit overtuned with AAF, this change will tone it down
DP and supplies per month 24->30
Accelerated ammo feeder -> infernium burn

Edit 2: Final patch for today I hope.
8.2.0 RC4
-Orchard Cannon changes, this should let you burst more often with the first two barrages, however firing for the third burst will have great innaccuruacy.
Removed ammo system completely
Spread shot 5->3
Flux shot 160->140
-Javanicus M sprite change

So far, things seem quite balanced for their DP.

At first I thought 30 for the Winghead would be so high. But that versatility and movement makes up for it. Tested it against everything 25 DP and up. It struggles (evenly) with the Aurora and that makes sense. It can keep a Dominator at a distance and engage it at its own terms, yet engaging it frontally in an all out knife fight is death. Not a quick death but not a great move.

The Mokarran is filling a roll that I really like. Not a hard core knife fighting tank per se, more like the conquest in that it can bring it but only for a short while before the damage taken is too great. I see this playing a big role in my fleets and will replace the Java as my personal ship. I would say that it is very close to where it should be as it is easy enough to overwhelm but strong enough and fast enough to use an opening to its advantage.

I am going to run a campaign from start to finish and see how everything feels.

Those empty arrays replace those from vanilla and other mods, instead of adding.

That sounds like a bug - I was given a commission with the Persean League, which is correct per the mod's lore - Mayasura is part of the PL.

-Adjusted Launch Speed of Gorgon SRM to 180 from 100, Hitpoints to 230 from 150. Made overall flight characteristics faster: Turn acceleration to 550 from 210. Turn rate to 140 from 70.
-Adjusted Winghead's hybrid mounts to energy for the smalls, rearmost small turrets adjusted to face rearwards and the composite medium mounts adjusted to synergy.
-Adjusted Mokarran's frontal turrets on its head to be energy, adjusted arcs to be more versatile instead of just frontal facing. Frontal medium hardpoints adjusted to ballistic only.
-Adjusted Bomber refit times.

Just a couple new weapons and some more balancing. Spoonbill switched to an actual modernized Heron, should provide a 3 deck carrier with the (M) buffs for bombers.

Hi! Love the mod.
The MSS Mako is an interesting ship, however, the MSS Mako (M) includes the following text-
Quote
the Mako was given a heavy modernization including the switching of the standard bombs to a cluster MIRV.

But then it doesn't (seem to) change from the default bomb launcher to an MRIV Variant.
I assume the default Mako bomb launcher is MSS_bomb_frigate, and the MRIV is the MSS_bomb_KE variant.
Possible oversight or bug, I assume?

Anyway, I really appreciate the work you put into this mod, can't wait to see what more you have in store for us.

OK who has tried a Nexerelin playthrough as member of Mayasuran Navy?   Any interesting to report?  This is also one of my game starts on my list for 0.9.1a I must admit...

It seems like they aren't on the map. Starting as them gave me starting fleet made of their ships, but I was just assigned a commission with the Sindrian Diktat instead.

That sounds like a bug - I was given a commission with the Persean League, which is correct per the mod's lore - Mayasura is part of the PL.

Having the same issue as the other guy, Mayasuran faction isn't spawning it seems.

It's intended. Mayasuran faction doesn't spawn any planets in random generation, doesn't have anything set to spawn in Corvus mode and it's also made to transfer the player to Persean League faction on game start.

Could you add please 10 lines of context in your first post? I know next to nothing of the current lore. Also, can you add what your mod adds in practical term? I mean, I sure can infer it adds ships and weapons, but can you elaborate in plain text what it does. A kind of description of your mod in plain, factual, words would be appreciated.

I highly endorse further work on this faction.  Those hammerhead based designs are a signature.

I could also stand to see a small Mayasuran colony on the fringes of a Nexerelin game instance...the genocide fate of the Mayasurans really bothers me and makes me wants to stomp some Pather trash.  Of course, only in the name of living Mayasurans, if possible.  I'm from TEAM GOOD GUY I promise.

The Didymoi's terrifying proximity mine sound is a good cue to dodge missiles that'll phase past shields. However, the visual cues are a bit subtle when there's mixed fighters and missiles in the air.

Probably not an issue with Mayasura's fat, noticeable fighters. Definitely an issue when you sell DME drone blueprints to pirates along with the Didymoi, and a Legion spawns with 4 wings of 'em. It took a few reloads and flying around with god mode to figure out what the hell was making that noise.

I'll be toning down the explosion radius on the influence mines, the sound though is something I like a lot.

I have a new Arjuna in the works, so a patch should be coming soon!

My only question and desire is the see the Sagittarius/Onocrotalus weapon make an appearance on the market.
Was looking for weapons to min-max my ships with and found that in the codex. But you don't seem have it implemented.

The primary kicker for the Mayasuran Navy arises from the main menu mission "The Last Hurrah" - yes you can play it out yourself! Canonically the Mayasuran Navy lost that battle; this mod hints at an alternative universe where they won instead.

That was meant to be a large built-in weapon for the Mithuna, however me and Sylva decided it would be better to have those large slots be modular instead. If I did reimplement it, it would be a large version of the Orchard cannon. As for the Mako (M), I'm still working on that. I have to figure out an MIRV script that turns the missile into plasma projectile balls.

All of my skin ships are limited to that, however for ships that don't require skins they have the Mayasuran design. So, for stuff like the Conquest and Heron, they're limited to midline design type.

And one more thing...

Can't wait for the faction to get added. I'm not too fond of helping the Persean League due to their...blandness and lack of lore, so this is a lovely addition.

I don't mean to rush you, but goddamnit I'm holding off playing until you add the faction proper.  ;D

Mayasuran Navy 8.2.1
https://bitbucket.org/KnightChase/starsector-mods/downloads/Mayasuran_Navy.7z

-Added in the Mayasuran faction, switched Mairaath to Mayasuran control.
-Nex start changed from Persean league to Mayasura.
-Changed Midline BP to Rare BP for the Sipahi, Crow and Tachi
-Updated sprite for Arbalest battery courtesy of Sylva.
-Added Light Mauler, fighter exclusive weapon
-Added Stormbreaker Gunship
-Redone Arjuna-class, changed sprite, weapon mounts, OP lowered to 230 from 260.
-Gaffel sprite changes, new bridge in front.
-Adjusted influence minelayer's visuals, lowering particle count to 25
explosion radius to 50 from 250
-Sunder (M) Cargo capacity to 80 from 50, fuel capacity to 50 from 30, hull integrity to 4000 from 3500, shield upkeep from 250 to 200, shield flux/dam to 1.2 from 1.1, top speed to 90 from 95
-Removal of built-in heavy armor from Hammerhead (U) and Sunder (TLH), reduced OP to base levels. This means the TLH skin versions are equal to the base ships.
-Mokarran and (M) version sprite changes. New stripes for the (M) version.
-Obliterator Rockets damage changed to 300 from 400
-Khopesh (M) burst size changed from 3 to 5. This means 15 300 damage rockets from each bombing run for a total of 4500 damage. This buffs the Khopesh (M) total damage from 3600 to 4500 if all of the shots land along with giving it more saturation akin to the regular Khopesh.

I really like the design of the ships and the potential addition to the lore they bring with the descriptions they must have, but I always try to keep my game as lore-friendly as possible and having the Mayasurans not blow up and die kinda messes up with it.

Perhaps the ships and weapons could be added to other factions, or the blueprints a chance to be found and be discovered?

Hi!

Hey, I'm releasing RC2, this buffs a couple of weapons and the Ferox Plasma Cannon bomber. You should see some of the Mayasuran weapons in PL/Mayasura markets now.

8.2.1 RC2
-Changed Orchard Autocannon Chargedown from 2 seconds to 1.25, max spread from 20 to 10, spread/shot from 3 to 1, spread decay/sec from 10 to 5, projectile velocity to 800, turn rate to 20 from 5, flux to 1:1 a shot.
-Added Onocrotalus Autocannon back into the game as a modular weapon. Essentially a larger version of the Orchard.
-Buffed the Ferox Heavy Bomber by upping shot count from 1 to 2 and adding a shield. Max flux from 2000 to 500, however no weapon flux hullmod was added.
This buffs the damage potential from 2000 energy damage to 4000, bringing it in line with stuff around the same OP level like the Trident.

-Changed Orchard Autocannon Chargedown from 2 seconds to 1.25, max spread from 20 to 10, spread/shot from 3 to 1, spread decay/sec from 10 to 5, projectile velocity to 800, turn rate to 20 from 5, flux to 1:1 a shot.
-Added Onocrotalus Autocannon back into the game as a modular weapon. Essentially a larger version of the Orchard.
-Buffed the Ferox Heavy Bomber by upping shot count from 1 to 2 and adding a shield. Max flux from 2000 to 500, however no weapon flux hullmod was added.
This buffs the damage potential from 2000 energy damage to 4000, bringing it in line with stuff around the same OP level like the Trident.

Oh I was about to post about this. I wasn't seeing your weapons and (M) class ships in the shop, nor were they developing their planets to have industry to build them and etc. Will I need a new save?

You need to conquer enemy markets for Mayasura to get good ships, also (M) ships are extremely rare. You will find them rarely in the market. If you have the Nexerelin start, I highly recommend starting with the grand fleet start on the last page, as you start with the Last Hurrah fleet capable of taking everything in the Mayasuran system including Port Tse and the Lost Astropolis.

Okay quick update I am now seeing them without a new save. The (M) ship aesthetic is amazing, I'd love to see it be their default, but I guess I could just make my own outpost and find the blueprints as an elite force.

Would it be possible for you to make a version of this mod without the faction itself?

I really like the design of the ships and the potential addition to the lore they bring with the descriptions they must have, but I always try to keep my game as lore-friendly as possible and having the Mayasurans not blow up and die kinda messes up with it.

Perhaps the ships and weapons could be added to other factions, or the blueprints a chance to be found and be discovered?
Hey hey! I have a download link for you, I term this version "Mayasuran Navy Falls". I'll be putting it in the OP as well at the very bottom.

I did this, albeit using the alternative grand fleet. I'm enjoying myself thoroughly, but I was wondering if it was possible to have both a Mayasuran and League Commission at the same time- or, at least the access of a League Commission. It was my understanding that Mayasura was a member state of the League.

Edit- is this already implemented? Sometimes I get the benefit of a Commission with the League, sometimes I don't.

I think I will stop supporting Mayasuran Navy Falls in my next patch, as it is a lot of hassle to rebuild the jar and delete scripts when I would rather have one version. Speaking of which, the new patch will be out soon, perhaps sometime this week or the next!

Probably for the best as the less work for you the better! The only reason I am not using the Faction is because Mairaith doesn't have a Station or Heavy Industry so currently Mayasura is just a one planet minor that cannot defend itself or build any ships (I know it's so the Player can rebuild them).

So in that state it just makes more sense to me thematically that they're a League member if they're so weak.

8.2.1 RC3
-Changed light Mauler to system only weapon.
-Adjusted Argentavis' right frontal medium hardpoint to 5 degrees to match.
-Added built-in surveying equipment to the Mithuna.
-Updated Manta (M) Sprite.
-Updated Raseri Sprite.
-Added in Commissioned Crew compatiblity for the Mayasuran Faction.
This gives you 10% CR if you're commissioned with Mayasura if you have Techpriest's Commissioned Crews mod.
http://fractalsoftworks.com/forum/index.php?topic=16677.0
-Added in heavy industry, military base and ground defenses to Mairaath.
-Changed Mayasura to show up on the intel screen, added description.

Hi there. I was trying out your mod and noticed the mayasura don't have a diplomatic profile in nexerelin. As in, they start hostile to certain factions and friendly to others, but they have no ideological dispositions in the diplomacy profile tab of the intel screen. Is that intended?

There seems to be a bug that doesn't allow a player to be commissioned by or increase standing with the Mayasuran faction by trading AI cores, because all of the administrators are still showing as Persean League administrators, even though the planet shows the Mayasuran faction. I have the required 10 standing in both factions, and still can't get a commission. Can't help Mayasura if they won't let me Dx

I was able to dig around in the save code and switch the administrators to the right faction, but Mairaath still doesn't have it's heavy industry, military base, or ground defenses from the RC3 update. Is there any way to regenerate Mairaath or cheat them in, or is Mairaath just gonna be weak this run?

Lucky, I've noticed that when I released the patch... It turns out I was using the same turret barrel sprite for the hardpoint barrel sprite which leads to that problem.

Hey, Chase. Love the mod - can't imagine playing the game without it.
I have some suggestions and a question.

1. The Adjective. Which one to use: Mayasuran - like in Mayasuran Navy, or Mayasurian - like in the NamePrefix entries?
2. Nexerelin file. Perhaps you could add "colonyExpeditionChance" - It would make sense that the mayasur(i)ans would want to acquire more resources at the start to help them wage war on the Hegemony/The Church. You should also add "alignments" entry - I've noticed that without it Mayasura rarely forms alliances.
3. Varya's Unique Bounties. You could make a unique bounty for Varya's Sector and give players a chance to acquire Zygaena through a challenging battle. I've made the bounty for myself already, so I can just send you the file/code If you want to implement it.
3. The Color. It IS somewhat hard to read it, and it is really similar to the one Dassault-Mikoyan uses. I've attached an image for comparison and uploaded some more on imgur. The colors I used are "color":[0,41,120,255], "baseUIColor":[63,94,153,255]. https://imgur.com/a/bkh5fH0 (https://imgur.com/a/bkh5fH0)
4. The Flag. It's probably just me, but I feel like the flag is way too plain. I've made a quick edit of an old Persean League flag - maybe you'll like, maybe you won't.

Thank you for the feedback!

1. Mayasurian is generally for a person, I use Mayasuran as the adjective for ships like Mayasuran Navy.
2. I've added the colony expedition chance to "1" with a max range of "25", so we'll see how that goes.
3. Please DM me over discord in a PM over the forums, I'm interested in seeing this!
3again. I've switched out the colors to a more silver, which is the color of the engines I use along with being one of the main colors for the (M) ships.

Javanicus is now thicc. Also really like the Nebulosa changes.

My only minor suggestion is the Javanicus could maybe do with another rear engine? As it now looks really thicc for two engines to push. But that's just a minor gripe/suggestion.

I hope i can be of some help. I use some other mod basicly Nexerelin and a big bunch of faction mods, all the libraries, and utilities like audio plus and leading pip, starship legends, lightshow, automatic orders, combats analytics, combat chatter, commisionned crew, console commands, common radar, weapon group control.

Thanks in advance, and keep up the good work ! ;)

Ps: sorry for the syntaxe i'am french... 

Edit: I just tryed again and got the bug again, i'm 100% that it didn't happen before the last update since I already had the Raseri and even used it quite a while, hope it can help.

I hope i can be of some help. I use some other mod basicly Nexerelin and a big bunch of faction mods, all the libraries, and utilities like audio plus and leading pip, starship legends, lightshow, automatic orders, combats analytics, combat chatter, commisionned crew, console commands, common radar, weapon group control.

Thanks in advance, and keep up the good work ! ;)

Ps: sorry for the syntaxe i'am french... 

Edit: I just tryed again and got the bug again, i'm 100% that it didn't happen before the last update since I already had the Raseri and even used it quite a while, hope it can help.

Remove the weapons from it before downloading the current patch. As I've changed the weapons layout so it means the ship doesn't have small missile slots anymore.

Hi,

So it means that the game analyse the ships in storage only when we load them and not when the game start, good to know!

Thanks for the fast answer too !

Hello Knight,
two things a found a bit strange but nothing game breaking.
Javanicus (M) maneuvering jets have yellow flame color instead of white as the normal engine.

And when i get Mark IX cannon on the Arjuna joker protocol it feels it have a bit longer range than other ones. Even bigger than Gauss rifle.

Other than that, as always, great job.

Mayasura being it's own seperate faction causes big problems with Nex.

They only have one planet, no defense station, no orbital works, no proper defense fleets. They get destroyed easily early on before the player can gather  a fleet to defend them.
Given them a station would help. Probably also giving them increase colonization chances. Perhaps a custom defense building?

The Mayasuran planets and faction color are white despite their men being dark blue for me, I don't know if it's something I did or the mod, also I believe the Conqueror(M) is set as midline instead of mayasuran making it harder to find, tiny nitpick i know but maybe there's others too?

Mayasuran Navy 8.2.3


8.2.3
-Added Guided Weapon Script.
-Added Reiter-Class Destroyer Heavy Carrier.
-Sarissa changed to 25 DP from 28.
-Winghead changed to 25 DP from 30.
-Gaffel changed to 25 DP from 30.
These match the Dominator's DP of being heavy cruisers.

I looked at the picture of the ships, and saw that half of the ships from the oldest versions were removed, I'm not sure it seems 3-4 ships are not there. Is it just a picture that holds new ships, or were they really removed from the mod?

Whilst in the unique case of this mod there isn't much to say about campaign feel, I figured I'd still offer my observations regarding ships:

- Given that the MMA ships are significantly more combat capable than the ships they are based, shouldn't they see an according increase in DP cost?

- The Nailer seems at best equivalent to the Brawler. Hardly worth 7 DP.

- There are a number of cases where a ship's fluff text refers to another class of ship that doesn't seem to exist. I'm guessing this is because some names have been changed and the descriptions not updated accordingly.

- The Mithuna is, functionally, remarkably similar to DME's Zelenograd, but I can't quite determine whether that ship is over-priced on DP or the Mithuna is under-priced.

Yo, new update.

8.2.3 RC2
-Adjusted Javanicus maintenance/DP to 60. (From 48)
-Adjusted Nailer maintenance/DP to 6. (From 7)
-New Heavy Ion Lance sprite courtesy of Nia.
-Adjusted Javanicus medium energy mounts to be able to fire slightly forward.
-Adjusted Nailer's mounts, side small energies swapped out for synergy mounts to be more like the Argentavis, center small and medium mounts swapped to hybrids to give it more variety in weapons.
These will let the Nailer be more versatile.
-Adjusted Nailer's system to be Infernium Injector for Shield wall, this makes the Nailer extremely aggressive.

**SAVE BREAKER
-Converted Falcon (M) into skin. **
**SAVE BREAKER
-Changed (M) Bonus from increased maintenance/recovery to slower maneuverability.
-Changed Stormbreaker's Light Mauler into Heavy Mauler (Fighter), now uses no ammo.
-Redesignated Stormbreaker to Fighter (From Bomber)
-Made Single/Twin Sagir Autolasers ammo to 200 (From 300).
This will let the Crossbow/Sipahi loiter less and return to carrier quicker.
-Changed Mairaath's administrators from Persean League to Mayasuran.
-Changed Mayasura to be able to make Mayasura spawn in random sector
-Added Nightingale Phase Frigate

The Nightingale replaces all of the low tech gremlins in Mayasuran fleets, so do not underestimate them.

So I'm looking into how various mods interact with Nex's mining mechanic and it seems to me that the Caravan could stand to have about half the mining strength it does now. 50 is a bit much for a ship that already has quite a bit else going for it and considering the mining strengths of other ships.

Aha, it was like that because in a previous iteration it had a built-in mining drone wing and a different sprite. I will look into halving it.

I apologize for the broken saves, if you want the update you have to give up your save. If you don't want to lose your save, wait until you're done with your current playthrough.

I'm gonna repeat this message one more time, make sure you read this.

I apologize for the broken saves, if you want the update you have to give up your save. If you don't want to lose your save, wait until you're done with your current playthrough. If you message me and tell me it broke your saves, there's nothing I can do about that besides telling you not to update.

Lastly, make sure to delete the entire folder before extracting the new version in. If you fail to do this, your game will not work and give you something like "MSS_Javanicus" does not exist anymore. Do not make this mistake.

Edit 2: I've reuploaded to make sure the Stormhawks get the new ships proper with their own variants. You can spawn them with console, but I need further testing to see if they actually spawn for Stormhawk fleets. Secondly, I've optimized the file size so the zip file shouldn't be as big now for download.

Changed weapon layout, now has two large universals instead of the two medium universals. And an extra medium hardpoint missile.
OP to 240 (From 230)
-Removed Deck from Excalibur-Class
Raised OP to 105
Added two medium missile mounts.
Caliburnus Range to 1500
Refire time to 3.5 seconds (This means DPS goes up to 643 from 346)
-Added Caliburnus to Nebulosa (M)
This should make the difference between the base, elite and stormhawk version more unique and get people to stop complaining about the prongs being useless.
-Added Elite Mayasuran Guard to Mairaath.
- Changed Mairaath's Planet Description
- Port Tse and Lost Astropoli will now have a different planet description under the ownership of the Mayasurans.

EDIT: QUICK PATCH

8.2.8 RC2
-New Paintjob for Patriot (M)
-Added design type to Mayasuran hullmods
-Fixed Elite Mayasuran Guard from showing in the intel screen.

Long-time visitor, finally made an account here on the forum in order to properly comment on mods such as this one.

Definitely a must-have mod for me! With the ships fitting seamlessly into the vanilla game's visuals and the faction itself being based in canonical lore (if altered slightly in order to allow them to still exist), it really helps it all feel like it well and truly belongs in the Sector. What issues I do have with it are rather trivial compared to what it does right, though I'll still voice them here for the sake of feedback.

-In the 8.2.8 update, the new elite Mayasurian sub-faction shows up in the intel tab as a separate faction, which it presumably shouldn't be.

-Some mod, I'm not yet sure which one (checking through them all now, and will let you know when I find it), adds an orbital station to Mairaath. This in itself isn't an issue, but the fact that it belongs to the Persean League is. Visiting the station still leads to Mayasura's market, but the station itself belonging to the League will likely cause problems in the (admittedly unlikely) event that the League and Mayasura come to blows. I'm not sure what solution would be prudent to take, or if it even is something you can deal with on your end as it's another mod causing it, but I figured you'd like to know that there's a mod out there which may cause trouble with this one in that sense.

-The adjectives. I combed through the thread to see if it was talked on before. Thankfully I saw your explanation about Mayasurian referring to the people of Mayasura, and Mayasuran referring to the navy itself. While I can't currently think of a real-life group that has different adjectives in this way, that's not the main problem I have with this. The problem I've found is that there are some points where this rule isn't being followed, such as the intel tab referring to them as "the Mayasurans" when by the aforementioned rules the people as a whole would be known as the Mayasurians. The mod description at the beginning of the thread also contradicts the rule, referring to the entire group as the Mayasurans, while also calling it the Mayasurian fleet. Thankfully, I imagine this would be fairly simple to fix— I've even gone into the files and done so myself when playing with previous versions of the mod. Personally I think it may just be easier to pick one over the other to refer to all of it, but that's your call of course.

-The faction's description in the intel tab is incredibly long; much longer than any other faction in the base game as well as any modded one I've personally seen. It also refers to the Mayasurian fleet, which plays into the point made above. Looking back, I noticed it's actually the description used for the mission "The Last Hurrah", which I imagine is why. This is also something I've fixed for myself when using previous versions, and would be more than willing to help put together a faction description that matches the vanilla ones in terms of length and concision.

That's about all that I can think of. The only other things I can think of are lore-related, which I'm not sure if that's relevant enough to really nitpick— though I'd certainly love to get into the nitty-gritty of the story, haha. Like I said before, what this mod does right far outweighs any issues I've found with it, and what issues I have found with it I'd be more than happy to offer whatever help I can with.

Visiting the station still leads to Mayasura's market, but the station itself belonging to the League will likely cause problems in the (admittedly unlikely) event that the League and Mayasura come to blows. I'm not sure what solution would be prudent to take, or if it even is something you can deal with on your end as it's another mod causing it, but I figured you'd like to know that there's a mod out there which may cause trouble with this one in that sense.

-The adjectives. I combed through the thread to see if it was talked on before. Thankfully I saw your explanation about Mayasurian referring to the people of Mayasura, and Mayasuran referring to the navy itself. While I can't currently think of a real-life group that has different adjectives in this way, that's not the main problem I have with this. The problem I've found is that there are some points where this rule isn't being followed, such as the intel tab referring to them as "the Mayasurans" when by the aforementioned rules the people as a whole would be known as the Mayasurians. The mod description at the beginning of the thread also contradicts the rule, referring to the entire group as the Mayasurans, while also calling it the Mayasurian fleet. Thankfully, I imagine this would be fairly simple to fix— I've even gone into the files and done so myself when playing with previous versions of the mod. Personally I think it may just be easier to pick one over the other to refer to all of it, but that's your call of course.

-The faction's description in the intel tab is incredibly long; much longer than any other faction in the base game as well as any modded one I've personally seen. It also refers to the Mayasurian fleet, which plays into the point made above. Looking back, I noticed it's actually the description used for the mission "The Last Hurrah", which I imagine is why. This is also something I've fixed for myself when using previous versions, and would be more than willing to help put together a faction description that matches the vanilla ones in terms of length and concision.

That's about all that I can think of. The only other things I can think of are lore-related, which I'm not sure if that's relevant enough to really nitpick— though I'd certainly love to get into the nitty-gritty of the story, haha. Like I said before, what this mod does right far outweighs any issues I've found with it, and what issues I have found with it I'd be more than happy to offer whatever help I can with.

Wow such a big post! Yes, please contact me. I'm on the discord or we can do this through DMs, I'd love to have some GOOD descriptions for the lore and such, haha.

Sometimes balanced for REALS this time.

8.2.8 RC3
-Arjuna Dissipation to 800 (From 600), DP to 50 (From 45)
-Added Design Tech to the .skin files for the Conquest and other various vanilla ships with (M) skins.
-Added Javanicus (SR)
-Switched Heavy Ion Lance damage to Kinetic
-Added Viper-Class Fighter
-Changed shield flux/dam for Didymoi and Ferox to 1 (From 0)
Please forgive me, I had forgotten setting the shield flux/dam for this, as such they will be more balanced now and not invincible.

QUICK EDIT: Redownload I forgot to put the Viper into the .faction file!

After updating to the most recent version, Starsector started to crash as soon as the initial load screen ended. I then tested the mod alone with only the prerequisite lazylib and the crash still occurred. After adding Vayra's sector, loading occurs normally. Is Vayra's supposed to be required?

When I use the Javanicus(SR) it has unlimited and instant replenishment of all fighter squadrons, including bombers. Furthermore, after using it once, every single carrier in my fleet gets the same effect until I reload the game. While sitting in an Onslaught's face with an otherwise-stripped-bare Javanicus(SR) and waiting for my Myrmidon bombers to kill him is funny, I get the feeling this isn't intended.

...I suppose it's worth mentioning that I've only seen this in simulations. I'm not really inclined to bring it into a real fight.

You will have to bring this up with Vayra, as I don't control the Stormhawk hullmod.

Yo, new update. This one is just in preparation for the tournament in a few weeks. It is also compatible with saves if you have 8.2.9 of Mayasura still. Make sure to remove your current download by deleting the folder first then extracting the new archive.

8.2.9 RC4
-Arjuna sprite changes
-Added script to let you keep governorship of Mairaath even after losing it.
However, this only works if Mayasura as a faction has another planet/station besides Mairaath, otherwise you lose governorship forever.
-Changed Onocrotalus/Orchard projectile color
-Changed Gorgon SRM to mayasura_wp_bp (from base_bp)
-Changed Arbalest Battery to mayasura_wp_bp (from base_bp)
-Added Mayasuran Weapon Blueprint Package
-Changed Arjuna's universal mounts to ballistics.
-Added new ship system, capital jets
-Adjusted Javanicus' Acceleration stats to be lower, and thus slower.
-Adjusted Javanicus' Dissipation to 1200 (From 1300)
-Adjusted Javanicus' PPT to 600 seconds (From 720)
-Switched Javanicus' ship system from maneuevering jets to capital jets
These changes will bring the Javanicus more in line and less nimble.

-Raised Nebulosa's price to 300000 (From 230k)
-Raised Nebulosa's DP to 38 (From 36)
-Raised Javanicus' Price to 420000 (From 350k)
-Raised Mokarran's Price to 330000 (From 300k)
-Raised Mokarran's DP/maintenance to 45 (From 42)
This will match the Oddyssey in terms of pricing/DP
-Raised Arjuna's Price to 380000 (From 330k)
This is inbetween the Astral and Legion in terms of pricing.

-Raised Price of Sipahi to 8000 (From 7000)
-Raised Didymoi Price to 14000 (From 11000)
-Raised Khopesh (M) Price to 11000 (From 9000)
-Lowered Stormbreaker Price to 8000 (From 10000)

Hello Knight,

Amazing mod, a permanent addition to my games !
I would like to know how to unlock the mayasuran elite guard HQ for player owned Mairaath, even with console command adding of "elitemayasuranguard" it seems to be locked only for Mayasura.
Is it something easy to change in the files ? I looked in it but was not sure.

Thanks and regards,

Post by: DreXav on May 08, 2020, 04:51:34 PM
Mayasuran Navy is hands down one of my favorite mods - it fits so well into the game that it could have been vanilla :) Great quality sprites, interesting and quite thoughtful variety. Their story grips my heart and I'm rooting for them every campaign.

That being said, I have played with their ships in various combinations from a light raider duty with few destroyers and fighters to full blown 30+ Mayasura-only fleet; here is some feedback based on my experience:

Mayasuran strong points:
- Consistent style, love the hammer-head styled ships, so well done
- Great variety of fighters and bombers
- Great variety of ship roles, solid core with lot of niche ships to choose from
- Lot of high mobility (heavy) ships
- Decent shield and armor values
- Generous amount of OP on Navy ships

Mayasuran weak points:
- Very poor selection of dedicated carriers to utilize its impressive repertoire of fighters and bombers
- Has very few weapons of its own, uses too many of Common weak weapons, is too dependant on player acquiring blueprints of other factions' weaponry
- Lot of the niche ships simply fail to pull their weight (some with awkward slots): Arjuna, Nebulosa, Excalibur, Sarissa, Stingray, Vigilance, Perryi, Peltast, Argentavis
- Variety of frigates feels a bit crowded considering how little impact they have, I couldn't really see their differences mattering enough


Some specific ship impression:
Capitals
Nebulosa - it has built-in frontal weapon but everything else is split between broadsides that lacks firepower and has some very awkward slot placements, see my commentary on the screen https://i.imgur.com/6WHpVrJ.png (https://i.imgur.com/6WHpVrJ.png)
AI is confused how to use it at all and player has no incentive to pilot it at all, its just too weak and awkward.

Mokarran (M)- I love this ship's style and utility. Has very good slots and angles, perfect balance between offense and defense paired up with decent mobility makes it a great flanking battleship. My fleet can always rely on it, provided I use decent weapons and none of that common trash AI loves to fit on its Mokarrans.

Javanicus (M) - this is a tough nut. Its Paladin PD seems totally broken but without it, theres serious lack of both firepower and mobility to threaten or finish off enemy ships. Paladin PD on the other hand decimates entire fighter/missile swarms and probably has bugged numbers in Combat Analytics, its just crazy: https://i.imgur.com/q8EyP7d.png (https://i.imgur.com/q8EyP7d.png)
I do love watching Paladin fire, though. Overall I wish it had either more firepower (after fixing Paladin) or staying power with some kind of damage mitigating system.

Arjuna - is my biggest disappointment in this mod. I expected a dedicated carrier to utilize all the faction fighters, instead I got really awkward ship that is coming short in every category that matters: very little firepower , built-in weapon overloads the ship with little to show for it despite huge range, a joke of ship system that doesn't help any of its roles as carrier, capital and siege weapon. No firepower and only 4 fighter bays at 50 DP. Would need a major overhaul to justify fielding it.

Mithuna - is alright as a niche flagship for exploration, but combat is not its forte and its outshined by alternatives.

 Conqueror (M) - is good as far as conquerors go, the flux and armor buff is what the ship needed. AI struggles with making Conquerors in general, but I had fun piloting it thanks to the generous flux dissipation and OP pool. Nothing wrong with the ship as it is, just AI can't handle broadsiding tactics.

Cruisers
Winghead (M) - my favorite ship in the mod and staple of my fleets: huge speed bursts allows it to relocate fast and run down any ship, you can get its shields to be very efficient, very good firepower for a chaser. Paired with its big brother Mokarran they make a formidable flanking force. The navy variant has a generous OP pool, maybe tad too much as I never felt I had to make any sacrifices when fitting it out

Moa (M) - pretty balanced cruiser to stiffen the central defense with while flanks push down. It could use a base speed boost though as I found it struggling to keep up with capitals and later disengage when needed.

Patriot (M) - is a cheap DP filler that actually competes with destroyers for slots on battle, I found it a competent harasser used to back up flanking force.

Sarissa - a mediocre ship at best, Sarissa does nothing to fix it the Mayasuran lack of good carriers, having only two hangar bays and non-fighter buffing ship system. Its slow and there are far better choices out there. Buff base speed a bit and maybe throw in extra hangar slot for +5 DP?

Herron (M) - the band-aid fix for Mayasuran carrier troubles, its relatively cheap and fast, but has no firepower and little defense due too few OP to fit anything besides fighters.

Excalibur - looks cool but ultimately a curiosity at best due its lackluster performance. Maybe buff its built-in weapon to deal extra damage to capital ships to style it like the anti-capital Ion Frigate from Homeworld series? Onslaught slayer!

Destroyers
Hammerhead (M) - looks great but its still the ol' weak Hammerhead. Little firepower and like most destroyers, it melts in fights with cruisers and capitals.

Sunder (M) - overloads fast, very fragile with terrible shields. There's zero reason to bring it into fight as you are better off with Patriot. Could use a buff to flux capacity and maybe a tweaked ship system - 1.5x firepower instead 2.0x but also lower energy flux use by 30%?

Stingray - has no utility beyond fighters, which it doesn't even buff. Might as well take the Herron.

Argentavis - I really want to like this ship but a very slow destroyer with no mobility/damage mitigation systems is just a shortlived piñata. Melts fast under pressure and cannot disengage in time. Costly for what it is, a Patriot for same cost is tankier, faster and deadlier. Would redesign it as smaller brother of Moa, buff speed and swap the drone for Moa's super shield system so it can act as a nimble bait.

Manta (M) - papermache ship thats a waste of points. Got no ideas how to salvage it.

Frigates
Nightingale - the only frigate I could give a green light. Very fast, best used to cap control points and distract enemies.

The rest of frigates: they die very fast and their weak performance seemed uniform despite variety.

Fighters and bombers

Crossbow - I found this to be the king of all fighters as a few wings can easily live through PD fire, enemy interceptors, decimate entire capitals and still be alive to harass its next prey. Potentially too strong when massed?

Ferox - plasma bombers are cool but its expensive and outshined by Crossbow.

Joker - is waste of system on Arjuna, as its host ship rarely gets in range for Joker to fire, nor it can defend Arjuna against anything, including other fighters.

Viper - it struggles to counter enemy fighters, possibly due low numbers per wing. Maybe increase to 3?

Khopesh - good ol' Khopesh is decent when massed.

As a closing note, I think the priority is getting dedicated carriers and faction weapons that specialize better than the generic guns.

EDIT: Oh yea, it could use a few more markets so it can put up a fight. Maybe absorb the Stormhawks idea and have some military camps on fringes? (Would save us from Stormhawk lagfest :D)

I won't be able to respond to all of your analysis but the Sarissa is a great ship, it's like an eagle on coke. What kind of loadout did you use that it didn't work out for you?

I suppose it's worth requesting the same judgement be made to the base Manta from Disassemble Reassemble - we've had this pointed out before by someone, where the user was calling out both versions of the Manta for being awful (and kept them in this thread, despite my requests to move discussions of the base Manta into DaRa's thread). I'd love to get your more detailed opinion on the ship, for both my sake and Knight Chase's.

I will begin by saying that I was reviewing Mayasuran ships first and foremost on merits of synergy within the faction, hence my focus on the naval variants than the base ones and not from perspective of them being viable or allowed for tournaments, which I wasn't told about when Knight Chase asked for feedback.

The problem with Manta is that its compromised in all categories - what does it strive to be? It has bad shield efficiency of 1.0 for a destroyer, pitiful armor and lower hull points than alternatives, one hangar slot without wing-buffing system. It could be used as capper thanks to its burn drive, but then again it won't be able to contest it very well against other cappers, so you could use a much cheaper and faster frigate for that purpose. A Wolf or Medusa would be much more useful.
A carrier? As mini carrier it doesn't contribute much, maybe one good bomber at cost of everything else, but it lacks the punch and defense to get near frontline really - and for 3 DP more you can have a much more versatile Drover with two hangar bays, great reserve deployment system and four missile slots that can be fired safely. No contest here.
A harasser? Again, lacks firepower and tankiness - for mere 1 DP more you can have a Hammerhead with 25 OP more, better shield efficiency, much better armor and weapon slots. Again no contest here.

Overall Manta is a great looking ship that is spread too thin and its hard to justify bringing one over better (and more common) alternatives. Its all the more aggravating as it just amplifies the shortcomings in Mayasuran fleet composition. I believe its design must be thoroughly refocused to be workable.

I have no idea how can you say Sarissa is an Eagle on coke - it 's a 25 DP cruiser with 130 OP, 25 less than 22 DP Eagle with 155 OP. 20% armor less and sacrifices THREE medium ballistic and one energy medium slot for one large energy slot and two hangar bays but it doesn't buff its wings either nor has enough OP to work with as opposed to Eagle. Its slow for its role and outclassed by alternatives like Moa (22 DP for whooping 190 OP, great shields and generous flux capacity) and doesn't buff its wings either, so you are better off with a more specialized and cheaper dedicated carrier like a Heron, 20 DP with three hangar bays and a targeting feed system.

Post by: AxleMC131 on May 09, 2020, 06:26:07 PM
Alrighty, this looks tasty.


The Manta is definitely unlike other destroyers. The closest comparable (vanilla) hull is probably the Shrike, in that it's a lightweight destroyer with swift movements, that really plays like an oversized frigate. First and foremost, you might see it as a Shrike alternative. It's really cheap for a destroyer - 22,000 credits base, when something like a Hammerhead is 40,000 - but as far as maintenance goes, the ability to field fighters qualifies for a higher monthly supply / deployment cost than you might otherwise expect.

Comparing the Manta to a heavy frigate is perhaps a better option. It gets the benefit of fast movement across the battlefield, alongside a destroyer-grade flux package (and ordnance point budget) and a fighter bay* into the mix as well. Perhaps compare as if it had a medium missile slot or similar instead of the fighter bay, since that's effectively what it sacrifices for the fighters in contrast to other similar ships. The Hammerhead is definitely a better brawler, that can't be denied, but the Manta is more effective at catching small ships and providing supporting fire. The fighters allow it to intercept a target even beyond its own weapons range, and equipping it with an EMP-armed fighter (Thunders or Claws) is a real recipe for rudeness in the Manta.

* It's worth noting that fighters get an automatic speed boost to catch up with their carrier on Regroup mode, so you can put normally slow fighters on it and they won't have a problem keeping up. By that metric, the Manta has another key strength in that it can act as a faster "delivery platform" for slow fighters than other carriers, however this is quite a high-brow exploit and not one that I really care much for.

The rest of the weapons package looks underwhelming, and that's true, it is, but the Manta also has pretty good flux stats for its weight - really good in fact: better than a Hammerhead would you believe! 4500 base flux capacity and 280 dissipation, compared to the Hammerhead's 4200/250. The Hammerhead has its AAF of course, which lets it get effectively double firepower for its flux, and it can also use much punchier weapons, but the Manta can actually handle a lot of flux from both weapons and shields. (The 1.0 efficiency shield is to prevent it from becoming TOO good at tanking on the shield.) On top of the flux, it has the Ordnance budget to afford expensive weaponry - Antimatter Blasters are a great thing to equip in the front, and Railguns or Needlers work well in some of the turrets. The wide shield means you can afford a bunch of offensive weapons in those slots, and you can easily negate nearly all PD, especially if you have an interceptor or support fighter equipped.

Finally, Burn Drive is useful both as a dash-in and a dash-out system. AI usage aside, the Manta is great at pulling the "HEY I'M HERE" move, and despite the light status it does still have some armour to take a few hits while the shield is down. Perhaps the ship's biggest downside that hurts its use as a chaser or pursuit craft is losing the zero-flux boost when its fighters are put into Engage mode, but this can be worked around with selection of fighters and/or hullmods.

One last thing: 10 base burn speed. Without any modifications you have a destroyer at frigate burn speed. It's a small thing since we have Augmented Drive Field and Sustained Burn and tugs to worry about, but it's worth noting all the same.


Despite all of this, the Manta is still only a light destroyer. It can't brawl with other destroyers and certainly can't threaten anything bigger unless you stick some kind of bombers on it. It's very much a versatile, multi-purpose ship design, with the fighters offering the majority of the intrigue there, but all those purposes generally involve beating up small ships. It absolutely CAN perform a harassing task though, but again, this requires particular fighters (don't underestimate the benefit of a wing of Broadswords, Talons or Claws). If you're trying to make a Manta tango with something like a Hammerhead at close range, it won't have a very good time without support. All told, the Manta is an oversized frigate with destroyer-level flux and a fighter bay, and performs best in an unfair fight.

I'm curious to know what roles in particular you've been trying to use the Manta in, and, if you have been using it as a pursuit ship, what exactly you've been pursuing.

Spoiler
The feedback is always appreciated. ;D And also highly interesting - as per the last time someone had this sort of argument, I pointed out that the Manta is one of the most popular ships in Disassemble Reassemble (it's basically the poster child of the mod), yet we have such a variety of playstyles in this game that it's impossible to create something everyone likes, so if this can't be resolved as an actual balance concern, then I'm afraid that's just the way of things.

I already talked(probably a bit too much) about this on discord but I'll post this here on the forum for the sake of current discussion - in my opinion the Manta is in a pretty good place where it has its own niche and is fairly distinct from the other midline destroyers, with a strong identity. It might not be as obviously strong as Hammerhead and Sunder but its speediness, fighter bay, and system make it a pretty darn good pursuit ship as well as a fun option for piloting yourself. And while it probably would be balanced with an extra mount or changing some to hybrids, that'd affect its iconic personality a bit.
The one thing I think is undertuned in a damaging way is its turn speed, as it is slower than a Hammerhead or the closest comparsion the Shrike. This is the one buff I think this ship really needs to be more fun to pilot.

I have no idea how can you say Sarissa is an Eagle on coke - it 's a 25 DP cruiser with 130 OP, 25 less than 22 DP Eagle with 155 OP. 20% armor less and sacrifices THREE medium ballistic and one energy medium slot for one large energy slot and two hangar bays but it doesn't buff its wings either nor has enough OP to work with as opposed to Eagle.

What I consider is that the fighters can help other ships if the need arises, or stick around with the ship, making it a very flexible option. More importantly the two hangar bays do not use any flux, which is great, and this is a big deal. I usually leave some weapons on the Eagle blank, because it doesn't have the flux stats to actually use all of its weapon slots, so the 'sacrifice' does not bother me very much. As you said, you also get a large energy slot on the Sarissa, so it's not lacking firepower. The Armor value is not an issue for me, I consider that if a ship gets to that point where THAT starts mattering, it's time to get it out of battle and replace it because the ship isn't adding much value to the battle.

started a Nexerelin game and joined the Mayasuran faction at start...hoo boy interested to see if other players have had success in this game start.

Spoiler

1.   Mayasuran high command decided to make me, a Lieutenant JG frigate captain, in charge of their home world on day 1.

2.   I've got a pirate station AND a Tri-Tachyon station in the home system!

3.   so all the Mayasuran defense fleets immediately go off to kamikaze themselves to destroy these stations.  I help out but this drains the defense fleets to nothing.

4.  My first strategic decision is:  build up my own fleet asap.  So I've spent months just defending the home sector space and gobbling up D-Modded ships, including, God Help Me, three Venture cruisers.  All because I need the weight of metal just to counter the local Tri-Tachyon and Pirate patrols.  I just don't feel that the home planet has any protection really.

5.  Now that I have @20 junk ships, I'm off to make some money and tentative plan is to buy, say, two or defense fleets to give my home sector "space superiority".  But I know that the AI will likely waste these fleets once again to knock down those stations...so instead will likely buy a battlestation and ground troop upgrade for the planet instead.

So how do you folks plan your early game activities for a Mayasuran/Nex game start?...because I can definitely see why this is labeled a "hard" start and think that, Real Soon Now, a faction is simply going to send a Grand Fleet and two helper fleets and simply take the home world.

In fact big picture is that I assume I'll lose this planet...so I'm planning on the certainty that I'll have to start over someone else with the "new faction" and consider that to be the "real Mayasura".

edit:  actually a Few Good Men helped me with the pirate base, and then when Hegemony came for the planet they didn't take but disrupted just about every industry...so maybe Mayasura can come back.
[close]

edit2:  lost the homeworld! to a combined three Hegemony super-fleets...so waited till they went away...and before they rebuilt the orbital, took it back.  I then got a Few More Good Men and took some pirate bases and planets (which went over to Mayasuran faction control) which gave the enemy factions something else to target besides the homeworld.  Got some Mayasuran heavy metal in the fleet now.  No rest for Hegemony and Luddic anything.

I just set up a normal Nex game, non-random galaxy AND chose Mayasura as my starting faction.  I've been playing with this faction on for several games and only just noticed this amazing game option.

(I put that detail inside spoiler formatting originally because I didn't want to spoil any surprises that the mod creator may have sprung in a recent update.  However I've seen as reported in https://fractalsoftworks.com/forum/index.php?topic=17807.0, the mod appears to have this "challenge start, be in charge of Mayasura from the beginning" as a built-in feature.  And what a fantastic feature it is!)

'Cause starting in control of Mayasuran faction is an eminently cool and difficult way to start out...we'll see how long I can survive as I usually wander away from a Nex game instance once I have a colony or two so am not very practiced in the end-game phase.

Sure seems that having 500 or so Marines around at all times is useful.

I've successfully brought Mayasura back from the brink of annihilation to sector dominance. Huzzah!

____

One note:  The home planet has both a Patrol Base, and a Military Base.  So when I eventually upgraded both to High Commands:  one of them disappeared (i.e. perhaps the game only allows a planet to have one High Command at a time).  I worked around this by not upgrading the second one to one step below High Command.

Let's go, new patch!

[close]

8.29 RC5
-Buffed Gandiva DPS to 1050 (From 652)
-Changed to interruptible burst
This will allow you to shoot 1-2 shots by releasing your mouse button midburst.
-Gandiva Flux/shot to 1000 (From 1200)
-Removed Ammo from Twin Sagir Autolasers
This lets the Crossbow Bomber return to carrier as soon as its done dropping off its payload.
-Changed Arjuna's Flux Capacity to 18000 (from 12000)
-Changed Arjuna's Flux Dissipation to 1000 (From 800)
-Changed Arjuna's side turrets to mediums/removed center rear medium turret.
-Changed Arjuna's OP to 260 (From 240)
This is a very big buff and will let the Arjuna go toe to toe as a mainline battlecarrier now.
-Removed Carrier/combat tag from Arjuna
-Changed Arjuna Designation to Heavy Battlecarrier (From Siege Carrier)
-Mokarran Sprite Changes
-Arjuna Sprite Changes
-Gandiva Sprite Changes
-Excalibur Sprite Changes

8.2.9 RC6
-Nebulosa sprite changes
-Arjuna Flux Capacity to 14000 (From 18000)
-Arjuna Flux Dissipation to 900 (From 1000)
Did some testing, was a bit strong in over all flux. This should curtail the Arjuna, but still make it relatively good for its price/DP.
-Arjuna OP to 250 (From 260)
So, with the rearmost center medium turret removed, this left over an extra 10 OP; this should fix that.
-Changed Mokarran's system to Infernium Jets
Now, it has an effect of regular MJ, however it loses 25 of that speed in reverse.

For anyone that still uses the Tiburo super fighter addon mod. The game treats the super fighter and the frigate, both named Tiburo, as the same entity. Removing "Mayasuran Navy\data\hulls\MSS_Tiburo.ship" fixes the weapon and thuster placements for the fighter. Need to disable the super fighter addon mod to get back the frigate variant.


Just dreaming here but having Tiburo frigate lauch a Tiburo fighter, both dressed in blue, would be freaking sweet. I know why you got rid of it but in my opinion the looks can't be beat.

-Tiburo price to 15000 (From 25000)
-Tiburo DP/Maintenance to 5 (From 7)
-Changed Heavy Ion Lance arc frequency to 0.2/0.3
This basically means it arcs faster, up to 5 arcs compared to the Tachyon Lance's 3.

-Added Arjuna (M)

Post tournament update, HVBs/new ships are on the way soon!

(https://i.imgur.com/0Md65Vr.png)

8.3.0 RC2
-Javanicus PPT to 720 seconds (From 600)
-Javanicus Dissipation to 1300 (From 1200)
-These are the pre tournament stats that I'm putting back. Since the Javanicus should be Mayasura's last line of defense.
-Changed Mokarran's system back to Maneuvering Jets
These are the pre tournament stats
-Mokarran Shield Arc to 210 (From 270)
This should make the Mokarran more easily flanked, letting you use the PD weapons more.
-Mokarran OP to 300 (From 315)
Originally the Mokarran was at +130 OP, this should make it balanced at +115
-Changed Mokarran's frontal medium turrets to energy, frontal medium hardpoints to ballistics only, and the return of the large composite
This change will allow a greater variety of weapons to be used by the Mokarran.
-Removed two small energies next to the large turret, removed two small missiles.
In order for the large composite to come back to the Mokarran, other parts of the ship will have to be sacrificed.
-Sarissa OP to 145 (From 130)
-Sarissa (M) OP to 155 (From 145)
Originally the +30 OP was meant for a Heron, the +   45 from baseline is in between the Eagle and Heron, letting the Sarissa perform better.
-Fixed sunder's sprite floaters
-Moved Argentavis' central engine plume
-Removed Strike/Use vs frigates tag from the Gandiva
Hopefully this will fix some targeting issues
-Changed Patriot's default loadout to Ultraviolet Pulse Lasers
-Centered shield position for hammerhead/excalibur/sarissa
-moved stingray shield position
-Triple Beam Cannon turnrate to 10 (From 5)
This should help the TBC in firing continously on a target.
-Added Low Profile trait to Mayasura
This may make the Mayasura start *easier* but, hopefully Mayasura will not die during the first year. Still very possible with all its enemies!

Great Faction Mod. Love to RP with it.

One thing that bothers me, is that the Base UI Color for the Mayasuran Navy is too white. Personally changed it to [235,231,180,255] for a more yellowish font.

It does confuse a bit if you can't differentiate it from Standard Text at first glance, or got other Faction that also add (very) white Faction Fonts

Can you even consider yourself Mayasuran if you conquer the people who rely on you to lead them? Shameful.

Technically you only get Governorship, which means the planet (and its in-faction import/exports) still belongs to Mayasura. Which also makes the Faction still exist even though they don't have a market left.

If you want all the things you conquer for yourself use console commands to transfer the market to you.
Title: Raseri?
Post by: miniusAreas on September 16, 2020, 02:40:00 PM
Hey there! I played with this mod with version 8.2.0, back when the Raseri (in all of its broken, Mijolnir meta glory) was still around. I have fond memories of using it to punt the burnt-out husks of Ventures and Atlas MK2's into bigger and smaller ships for fun, and I'm sad to have lost it for what seems to be for good, quite possibly. Is there any chance we will ever see it back as part of this mod or a standalone version of the Raseri itself? The hole in my ramming fleet heart is currently bleeding wide open without such a glorious ship.

Really like this mod, though I encounter a few problem so far.

Nebulosa (M) - Sadly the Prime version is the worst of the three, both stormhawk and regular nebulosa have more firepower on their boadsides due to having missiles/fighters. It also likes to fire the railgun wildly while it's rotating, which is a common problem with broadside ships with fixed forward weapons (Neutrino Banshee Norn has the same problem)

Arjuna (M) - The AI spams the phase teleporter as soon as it is off cool down with no rhyme nor reason, fighters will be constantly pull out of range and grouped for flak cannons, bombers get teleported out before they are properly massed. Definitely not worth giving up the flux free large gun that the Joker gives you.

Alright lads, it's time.. I've switched up my upload source to github, I'll be uploading there from now on. I have more HVBs on the way, so look forward to it!

(https://i.imgur.com/Yzfnedi.png)

8.3.1
-Added Shikra Escort Carrier
-Added Shikra (M)
-Switched out the Drover for the Shikra if you choose Carrier Small (2) in Nexerelin.
The Shikra is Mayasura's new two deck carrier, it will be replacing the Stingray in the two decker role.
-Added Scaramouche Interdictor
The Scaramouche is a very fast destroyer with twin heavy ion lances.
-Added Starliner (M)
-Added Orbital Howitzer
The Starliner (M) is a heavy troop transport with a very dangerous chin cannon.
I've repurposed the Starliner Mk. II, so your saves won't break.

-Added Mokarran (K) High Value Bounty.
This one goes out to you, Kart!

-Changed Abandoned Astropolis description.
-Changed color of Onocrotalus projectiles/trail to green.
I will fluff this ingame as 'uranium' rounds!
-Stingray max flux to 4500 (From 3500)
-Made Shield Bubble Bigger
-Dissipation to 350 (From 240)
-Fighter Bays to 1 (From 2)
-Maintenance/DP to 11 (From 14)
-switched central missile to composite
-Added two smalls to the side.
-OP to 85 (From 90)
-Removed Combat/Carrier tags
The Stingray has now been changed to be more combat focused, with the addition of two smalls, its firepower has been significantly buffed with better flux handling and cheaper maintenance/DP for its new role.

The Raseri was quite the ship, but it didn't fit the mod nor did I think it had good sprite quality. I had to shelf it for now. But it will return at a later date in a different mod for sure!

Using broadside unfriendly loadouts with the Nebulosa (M) will make its AI weird. When I test with the default elite loadout, it broadsides and gets all guns on target. Please link me your build.

Post by: Knight Chase on October 17, 2020, 11:55:23 PM
Some changes before something big!

8.3.1 RC2
-Buffed Javanicus armor to 1500 (From 1400)
This is a small incremental buff to the Javanicus' armor.
-Buffed Nebulosa DP to 35 (From 38)
The Nebulosa is meant to be the cheapest capital you can field and doesn't have the full complement of decks + weapons that my other capitals have.
-Buffed Excalibur's Deceleration to 25 (From 10)
This should make the Excalibur better in terms of AI. I would say this improves the efficiency by 1000%!
-Buffed Caliburnus Railgun's range to 1600 (From 1500)
This will also help the Excalibur's AI, since it likes to keep short range despite having a 1500 range gun.
-Changed Excalibur's Price to 90000 (From 100000)
-Changed Moa DP to 25 (From 22)
-Changed Moa Price to 140000 From (120000)
-Changed Sarissa DP to 22 (From 25)
-Changed Sarissa Price to 120000 (From 140000)
This change in price/DP should reflect their roles better. The Moa is quite the strong defensive cruiser in my line up, while the Sarissa should be equal to the Eagle's DP/Price range

Oh snap son another HVB so soon?

8.3.1 RC3
-Added Heavy Ultraviolet Pulselaser
This is my FIRST Rotary gun that I've made!
-Added Scaramouche (CJ)
This one honors Cjuicy, for asking me about an HVB! I simply fulfilled his request. It doesn't have a standard portrait for now, that is in the works.

Also, I'm curious to see reviews of my weapons/hear your guy's suggestions for new weapons! Built-in or Modular!

I wanted to know, how does the Arjuna's (M) fighter teleportation device works ? I've tried it out and it feels very inconsistent, either it teleports the bombers and fighters over a very small distance no matter how far away I point my cursor or it will only teleport a single wing if I try to teleport them close to me after recalling them.

Scaramouche (CJ)'s blueprint is present in the mayasuran bp package. Seems to be unintended since you can't produce it anyway, as it lacks an entry in default ship roles (as most HVBs do).

That command frigate does make me yearn for a Mod that has it's ship 'power' priority reversed with ultra-powerful small ships, and fodder larger ships.

That or space 'fighters' and 'bombers' in place of cruisers and capitals. A faction that builds it's spaceships like they are massive aircraft.

Two new very aggressive ships!

8.3.2
-Added National-Class Squadron Leader
This is my newest capital, capable of ruinous firepower with its three large energy turrets! You will find its firepower satisfactory for anything you mount on it!
-Added Loyalist-Class Command Frigate
This is my new frigate designed for those who like commanding from a frigate, using safety overrides and enjoying small weapons from a very... interesting chassis.
It has increased PPT of almost 7 minutes, however its toggle safety overrides' system will drain that extremely quickly.
-Added Safeties Switch System!
Toggle your safety overrides with one simple button!
-Buffed Phase Gateway Range from 800 to 1600 units.
-Updated Cjuicy's portrait with a custom made one by Gwyvern!
-Added Reinforced Bulkheads to Scaramouche (CJ)

As for built in vs modular weapons, I'm honestly pretty torn. I think if I had to pick a sufficiently interesting built in would take the cake as those are always awesome to play with and build around but tbh anything is nice.

I have spent hundreds of hours studying naval history, and almost every element of the ship designs you have put into the mod mesh with terrestrial ship design in an amazing and enjoyable way.

The doctrine of putting a medium mount on the stern of most ships with fixed front-facing main batteries, but then not putting them on the broadside-focused warships, feels like a logical compromise for a navy fighting in an environment with the ubiquitous Salamander missile system and highly mobile phase frigates. It is great for worldsectorbuilding by making it seem like these ships are made and employed by thinking people who want to live in their world. A dreadnaught style centerline battery with a superfiring turret feels remarkably cozy in a space age game.

I have been watching the Ferox Fighter wing take capitals from 100%->0% hp in a single strike if they hit exposed hull, but their contribution doesn't show up on a the combat analytics report (but their fighter kills do somehow). Is there a config setting or something to fix this?

Thank you for making this.

Mayasurans really look like Greysons expies. And that's why I love them. In sector full of big factions made of *** like Hegemony and Diktat, this one planet faction still manages to hold it's own with clever ship designs and will to fight no matter what. Also midline tends to be generaly overlooked in mods. Low Tech and High Tech are much more popular for new designs. Having a faction focused solely on Midline doctrine is refreshing.
Title: Re: [0.9.1a] Mayasuran Navy 8.3.2 RC2
Post by: Knight Chase on January 26, 2021, 05:38:18 AM
8.3.2 RC2
-Blocked Ops center from being installed twice on the National/Loyalist
-Fixed center left turret on the Loyalist to be 150 arc and match existing arcs.
-Returned the frontal small missile slots to the Mokarran.
-Changed Loyalist's sprite a bit.
-Buffed Argentavis' armor to 800 (From 700)
This change is due to the Enforcer getting a defensive bonus and I plan on keeping up with such changes!
-Buffed Stingray Dissipation to 450 (From 350)
-Buffed Stingray Capacity to 5500 (From 4500)
-Buffed Stingray to 95 OP (From 85)
These changes will let the Stingray excel in a more combat focused role. With focus on its three energy mediums, more spicy loadouts can be made.
-Added back in ammo system to UV pulse laser. It simply had way too good sustained DPS, this will curve it back a bit!

Small patch for now, big things soon; please look forward to it!

Low stability, base quality is so low, because from lore perspective humanity having a hard time creating something new with post-collapse technology and depending on the doctrine, from that screenshot your base ship quality is 13% and get debuff 15% from low stability, the debuff only affecting individual planet.

That's why you still need nanoforge, even the corrupted one is better than nothing at all.

Yesterday in my Mayasuran playthrough I finally finished terraforming Mairaath into a Terran world, and the feeling of accomplishment after tearing through the Hegemony and Luddic Path to get enough resources to do so was really rewarding. My favorite playthrough so far! With such a spread of unique ships I had no problem having my entire fleet use the (M) Mayasuran variants and still had enough flexibility for the any engagement.

Hi! Could you increase the arc on the large energy hardpoints on the Moa by a few degrees? The ship struggles to fire weapons against enemies, mainly weapons that have some sort of charge-up mechanic that isn't forced to finish. Also, with how targeting works, if you try to manually control both turrets at once you can only get one to fire due to the lack of overlap.
Unless there's a workaround i don't know about?

The Moa is balanced by its restricted arcs, unfortunately. If I were to make it able to converge two large energies easily, it would be a higher deployment point ship and even stronger than the Winghead.

That's a shame, because as it stands you can't fire both at the same time since the game doesn't let you fire a gun if you're aiming even slightly outside of it's arc, the ship felt lackluster compared to the other cruisers because of it.

YOU HAVE BEEN WAITING, I ALWAYS DELIVER ON TIME.

8.3.3
-Added Iruiru Plasma Grenade Launcher
This is a very new concept for me, this is my answer for a medium energy HE weapon. If you've played a certain spartan game, you will be VERY familiar with how it works.
IT IS ALSO A SYNERGY WEAPON THANKS TO 0.95
-Added Gyrfalcon Medium Cruiser
This is what you've all been waiting for, my refit version of the falcon that does... broadsides.
-Added AI to Phase Gateway
So, this is a big gamechanger for the Arjuna (M), especially if you use it in your fleets. They now have the power to TELEPORT bombers on demand, which they could always do but not without an AI.
-Added National (M)
The National gets a hefty upgrade with its secondary energy turret being able to fire missiles now.
-Added Gyrfalcon (M)
In the SAME update, the Gyrfalcon is also getting an (M) version, with the same upgraded hybrid smalls just like the regular Elite Falcon.
-Added Scaramouche (M)
For those wanting an upgraded Interceptor, the Scaramouche upgrades its medium synergy to a large synergy, amazing for a late game fleet when you need a fast ship!
-Added Tiburo (M)
The Tiburo (M) has gone from a superfighter to a superfrigate, this upgrade gives it two small hybrids in the rear, negating weaknesses to salamanders by giving you more PD options.
-Added Excalibur (M)
You will be very interested in the Excalibur now with its AMMO switching system that can't be beat!
-Added Champion (M)
I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS
-Added Mako (M) Plasma MIRV bombs.
You've all waited for this, it's finally here.
-Buffed Sentinel PD System on Javanicus (M)
So, if you didn't think the Paladin was strong enough, I've added the frag AOE from the Paladin.
-Removed Graphicslib stuff
Very much deprecated.

Hi Knight Chase! I am having a conflict crash at startup between your mod and GraphicsLib. I had the same issue when TADA was first re-released. Tartiflette and Dark Revenant figured it out and fixed it, maybe they can help.

Alright, quick patch; but it comes with so much more than just some SIMPLE fixes!

8.3.4
-Added OFFICIAL music made by Hanawub
This is HUGE, now when you encounter Mayasura in hostile, neutral or friendly terms, you'll get an absolute banger. I hope you enjoy it!
-Fixed Graphicslib issues that made you CTD
-Fixed Excalibur (M) crashing by firing on unshielded ships.

If you've got any thoughts about the music let me know!

I have fixed this now by adjusting the arcs. With the medium energy now facing directly sideways instead of being conquest-style frontal energies, it's a lot more smoother in transitioning to the broadside. Patch is out now.

Hey, I've noticed the Excalibur (M)'s ship system, Variable Ammo has no description. At least not in the codex. Thought you might want to know!

EDIT: This is only when I look at the ship. When looking at the ship system alone in the codex, it has the proper description. Very odd.

Title: Re: [0.95a] Mayasuran Navy 8.3.4 RC2
Post by: speeder on April 16, 2021, 10:01:31 AM
You can immediately give away the colony.

When you start as Mayasuran in Nex, you start with a comission, and as "governor" of the colony.

You can talk with the colony administrator on the comms screen, and "give" back the colony.

Not sure why you would do that though, they risk getting wiped out early without you having a chance to learn all blueprints and whatnot.

EDIT: repleid the guy question and forgot to post what I wanted to post :P


So I wanted to know if the mod now will use the new features to let you actually play out the mod tagline, for example some conversations with characters about terraforming, maybe interaction with the other terraforming mods and giving you rewards if you fix the planet, maybe a supership if you wipe out luddic path, etc...

8.3.4 RC3
-Updated Zygaena sprite
-Changed Starliner (M)'s ship system from shuttlepod escort to infernium burn
This is a huge buff, this now encourages a short range albeit extremely dangerous playstyle involving the Starliner (M). With assault chainguns blazing, you can now get in range of most ships and alpha strike them with the Orbital Howitzer.
-Removed Starliner (MMA), Nebula (MMA), Mudskipper (MMA)/Shuttlepods
Didn't really use them.

Should be good for RC14 for Starsector, I've removed some of the auxiliary ships, but unless you had those ships in your campaign save, you should be fine compatibility-wise.

I have a question, how does one acquire a Zygaena? There is supposedly no bp for it (i don't see the rare_bp tag) and Mayasuran don't have the bp either, so they don't have it in store. Am i missing something?

The patch notes read that Shuttlepods are removed, lads. If you didn't remove the entire folder before hand and replace it with a fresh extract; there would be no problem. Secondly, I've removed all traces of the Mayasuran shuttlepod from the game, those were only used on the Starliner (M), Starliner (MMA), Nebula (MMA) and Mudskipper (MMA). Since the Starliner (M) uses infernium burn instead of shuttlepod escort, there should also be no problem. Lastly, I did say these would break saves; I apologize.

 am experiencing a bug with the current version of Mayasura (8.3.4 RC3) and Nexelerin (0.10.0e). Nexelerin seems to be overriding Mayasura's relations with all vanilla factions, setting them all to neutral. I tested with only Mayasura and Nexelerin enabled, plus required libraries. I tried a couple other factions one at a time with Nex, and their relations don't seem to be overridden, so it appears to just be an issue between Mayasura and Nexelerin.

My anecdotal experience is similar, though I've found they get replaced with the expected relations after about two months (hegemony hate them, etc.). Playing commissioned/governor under Mayasura through Nex's setup. Currently pretty much everyone is at war with them (doing starfarer as well), trying to invade. Good times  :)

While I like the music itself I don't think that it fits as a background music. Compared to base game it sticks out too much. That is not how "game music" is made, at least not one that is supposed to be faction flavor/theme.     
I like the mod itself (the ships are very creative and actually useful), but the moment I run into any Mayasuran fleet/station I want to take my headphones off. It has waaaaaaaaaaay too much base and is way too fast/energetic for background music, which (sadly) makes it annoying for me. :(

This is a capital ship in a cruiser package

And yet, the champion is still a better package. You will get this when you use that ship a bit. I actually don't use. I pretty much play Mayasuran exclusively. Lets just say it blows up really easy and doesn't really bring more heat do to flux capping out.

GET EXCITED FOR A NEW CAPITAL FOR THE MAYASURANS, THE SKYBREAK!


8.3.5
-Returned the Mokarran's frontal composite medium hardpoint mounts
This how the Mokarran originally was like, it's fitting to be returned back to normal.
-Added Skybreak (M)
A Nia and Luzaitis special, but you'll enjoy my rendition with its Infernium Burn!

Hmm, I'm getting a crash that I'm pretty sure is Mayasuran related. I think this because it always happens when I am inside the Mayasura system, and in several cases I've observed it to occur when the Mayasuran navy engages an enemy. My guess is that it is trying to load one of the ships, but failing in some way.

Is there a way to alter files to exclude s-modded fleets, then? Normally I would be happy to just work around a rare bug, but this is starting to occur more and more often as time goes on. The Marasurans are expanding, which I suspect is the reason this is happening more and more often. At this rate I am going to have to stop playing this save and start a new game.

Alternatively, could you point me at where this bug was discussed, so I could gather some more information there?

I don't think VS is the main issue.
I don't use it and the Mayasurans never amount to anything in my games unless I personally help them out. They start with a single planet and powerful enemies so that shouldn't come as much of a surprise.

Lovely ships though...

Haha, not a bug. Kind of intended, since it's a conversion like the converted hangars hullmod, you get fighter bays but they really aren't standard since I add them through a skin. I've added the same hullmod to the Nebulosa (M) so look forward to that.

Not sure, the drone system is meant to have it soak up damage for you on the very tip of your front hull when your shields are down. Making it an LPC would mean adding a deck and it's meant to be more like a fully armored chunky destroyer.

One last thing, if you have any opinions about ship balance etc, post em. I'm looking to buff some ships back to usefulness instead of retiring them.

Post by: Godvana on September 29, 2021, 10:48:20 PM
Looking forward to the new update, definitely in my top 3 faction mods along with Kadur Remnant and Tiandong.

Ship balance wise I feel like the Argentavis is a little to expensive for what it does, it seems to suffer with flux shortages with 4 medium guns, its elongated shape makes it hard to avoid damage which further compounds on to the aforementioned flux issues and with a cost of 15 id rather just have a light cruiser in its place like the Falcon or the Tahlan Phoca, both of which cost the same. Just seems like it has a bit of an identity crisis; to big to function as a destroyer, too small to function as a cruiser. But that's just my opinion.

When you hear those cannons go boom..

(https://i.imgur.com/nDsFoP2.jpg)

8.3.5 RC2
-Changed Skybreak's name to Skysplitter
-Changed Nebulosa (M)'s frontal large railgun to a deck, added Mega Ultraviolet Pulselaser.
This significant change in role will definitely change how you build the Nebulosa (M) along with giving it a very hefty gun and fighters to match.
-Changed Skysplitter's two front large mounts to the Avenger.
So, this change removes the modulars in exchange for the new gun, I hope you have fun with it!
-Added Invasion Mission that can be taken while under commission to take over the Lost Astropolis and Port Tse Station in the Mayasura system.
-Finally fixed relation bug in Nex, so you will be hostile to almost everyone and have allies with the persean league.

Knight Chase, you've been asking for ship feedback, right? May I bring your attention to the Excalibur? I feel like something is wrong about it's flux dissipation. Even if you max out vents it cannot sustain continuous firing from the railgun. A ship that is built with a single weapon in mind is not capable of firing it without overloading. It just feels weird.

On a semi related note, I've talked to Alex on twitter and he says that he plans to remove the Ranged Mastery skill. And, considering the fact that Nebulosa now does not have it's railgun, how abot a specialised capital ship who's gimmick would be being as far from the enemy as possible? Mayasura is about big integrated guns now. So how about an even bigger gun than an Excalibur? With some fun low-scale side effects like in Superweapons Arsenal (physics going wild due to all the energy in play)? Maybe with a ship system like the Neutrino Corp. Jackhammer (you stay still, but get some damage and range boost for a small period of time)?

It's just a wish though, as I hate being close to the enemy. There is nothing noble in getting your crew get killed due to hull damage. Now that Nebulosa is different it's either using the Paragon as a flagship (no fun) or getting close and personal (ethical problems). Mostly what I'm asking for is to keep in mind a possible need for rebalance due to Ranged Mastery skill going out of the window.

Thanks for a great mod! May Mairaath be green again!

I personally don't think having a sniper ship be flux neutral while firing is balanced. You are shooting extremely high damage slugs for 2000+ damage, and as a sniper, taking your time between shots instead of spamming it should be key. Look to the Arjuna for having high DPS kinetic.

In regards to a sniper capital; there will be one in the works, but perhaps not in guns but missiles like an arsenal ship.

Also, the Avenger has 1000 range, it is a very CHUNKY and meaty gun. You will find its range with ITU to be satisfactory; it matches the thermal pulse cannon for damage and you shouldn't be dissatisfied with using it.

The Excalibur(M) feels quite balanced rn, probably a bit overvalued DP wise but it can be built flux neutral -even with shields up- with Flux Regulation (skill), max vents and Flux Distributor (hullmod) and it is a very capable fire support like that.
What's broken about it is the graphical glitch on dead entities that make it look like invisible plasma grenades are misfiring, the AIs tendency to ineffectively spam cluster ammo against shielded enemies (non-piloted Excalibur > non-piloted Excalibur(M) ), leading pip unchanged on the snail-like anti-matter shell and the missing system description. Oh and by a hair's breadth misses that repeatedly don't detonate. I can do that on an Atlas Mk.II on purpose but sadly it happens quite often even unintentionally. They tend to, however detonate prematurely near an untargeted enemy.

Sadly some Mayasuran ships are so OP starved I could not make anything out of them when I did a destroyer run.

I like how prototype phase cloak does not count towards Phase Corps' peak operating time, thus not reducing the bonus on my Harbinger.

edit: looky what I found

ps. Can you make plasma grenades work against phase ships? Sticks onto them, they go into p-space, fuse timer runs off aaand... nothing happens. - correction: they glitch the same as with dead targets and deal no damage

More ship feedback, this time on the updated Nebulosa (M)

- I think its too strong for its OP cost, it gets the prime warship hullmod (better flux, better fighter refits, lower bomber cost, better armour), two fighters bays, and the excellent Avenger cannon only at the cost of 10 OP and a large missile slot. I would restrict the Avenger to the original Nebulosa firing arc (so it cant pass over the bridge) and drop one of the fighter slots.
- As much as I love it, I think the Avenger is also a little op. Personally I would bump its range down to 900. Seems fair considering how versatile it is (like the Mjolnir Cannon)
- Its also possible for me to fit the converted hangar hullmod on the Nebulosa (M), shouldn't be possible as it already has hangars.

I used DIY Planets https://fractalsoftworks.com/forum/index.php?topic=17556.0

Took the Ice Giant neighbor, setup a water transport structure there, then built the receiving structure in Mairaath. From there, it's just a waiting game.

So, I've decided to delay my patch of 0.95a and I'll be putting it towards the NEW Starsector patch. But for that to happen, I gotta wait for several libs to update first.

1st off I would like to say that I absolutely love this mod. really enjoyed reclaiming the home System and brining life back to Mairaath.

But in the course of my game I realized that there is a major balancing issue with one of the ships. The Mako plasma bombers are insane!!! I built about 7 of them at the beginning of my game because I really liked the description and concept and im serious when I say these few ships wrought devastation and ruin to the enemies of Mayasura beyond imagining. They're fast enough to bounce around between onslaughts with the strike potential of capital ships, even when they get overloaded they're often able to get out of harm's way because they're so nimble. Their power is particularly obvious when they're put up against certain other modded ships, full fleets of Diable and O.R.A just die to only 7 makos. I've only seen them weak against fighters because they're the only ships that can keep up. The problem is exasperated with officers and bonuses from other mods as you can imagine.  I'm not really good with balancing so I'm not going to suggest any course of action, all i knows is these things wreak house.

Could you please possibly make MM and SH variants of your ships rarely appear on Hegemony/Persean markets should there be no Varya's Sector installed? Ships are very nice but you can only console command them or find a blueprint for one somehow.

Wouldn't make sense for them to appear on non Vayra faction markets. However, I might be able to get away with occasionally putting them in Mairaath's market.

Good day.

With each new game with the nexerelin mod, my Mayasura faction is destroyed literally in the first year (mainly by the Hegemony). How to secure Mayasura from this? How about joining Mayasura with someone in an alliance, for example with any of the opponents of the Hegemony?
Title: Re: [0.95.1a] Mayasuran Navy 8.3.6
Post by: Melcyna on February 21, 2022, 07:00:53 AM
They already are I think? With the Persean League iirc, but not sure how much this helps them at the early part of a game because that's where they are the most vulnerable.

They basically have only 1 world (with no starbase at that at the start) and they are immediately up against the Hegemony and the Luddic Church which can at times result in a literal back to back raid, invasion or worse... raid AND invasion from both (sometimes both coming at overlapping time so it's a literal party with 2-3 hostile invasion + raid fleet all massacring the system's meager defenders which cannot pose much of a resistance even with the elite guard HQ)

If they by luck survive this early phase though, they usually can more or less defend themselves reasonably... and if they managed to successfully colonize another place, that usually secure their safety.

If I am playing as the Mayasuran myself, I guarantee their survival by basically rushing to get the hammerhead BC (Mokarran I think?), which is probably still one of the best capital ship that the Mayasuran have due to the combination of high maneuverability (with the system active it literally can turn to face a frigate coming from the rear in seconds and it allows you to move fast enough to stay out of effective range of most other capital ship) and massed frontal facing firepower most of it located right at the front of the ship which gives it a reasonable range advantage (which is absolutely needed to kill the massive number of capital ships that you can end up having to fight) and a battlestation at least on the main planet to help defend it from the numerous fleet coming at it.

In one of my playthrough, with the battlestation and my BC essentially parked next to it, I had to repel 4 invasion + raid fleet almost back to back from Hegemony and Luddic Church, with just enough time gap in between fight and their fleet's travel time (+ they waste time chase after the puny defense fleet) to repair my fleet. Usually by the point the Battlestation is up, and if I have the BC ready in time... I am reasonably confident that no matter how many fleet the Hegemony and Luddic Church throw at the planet... I can fight them off.

All playthroughs I have to end up gifting them systems in order for them to survive. I think their base system can really use some upgrade and strengthening as a whole.

Careful what you post on the comms network, spacer. You wouldn't want to be flagged on one of COMSEC's watchlists now, would you?

In all seriousness, it's not everyday you find a faction mod -- and a good one at that -- with a custom Nexerelin start which grants you a free colony.

That honestly is my favorite part of Mayasura's Nexerelin start. Truly makes us the instrument of the Mayasuran Phoenix's revival.

Full credit to you for your splendid work, of course. I was inspired by the person who made the Plunderin Strikecraft mod for Roiders, which is a series of Strikecraft modifications of vanilla and Roider wings. No hard feelings if its a no, I'm gonna have to learn spriting eventually.

Three new ships, balance changes and a return of an old favorite!

(https://i.imgur.com/MVeuORM.png)

8.3.7
-Added Iapetus-Class Supertanker
Big thanks to WMGreywind and Yunru for finally giving me a logistics fuel tanker!
-Added Carnwennan-Class Railgun Frigate
-Added Spartan-Class Super Destroyer
-Added Ballistic Rangefinder as a built-in to the Javanicus
-Returned Nebulosa (M) to its Railgun form
Haha, it just feels better to use than the Avenger. Sorry for taking so long!
-Removed Active time on Safeties Switch
So this means you can have it on FOREVER.
-Fixed Zygaena and Nightingale phase cloaks to normal vanilla phase cloak.
Temporary fix until I can figure out the custom visuals.
-Changed Avenger firerate from 0.18 to 0.1 refire time.
-Lowered Avenger range from 900 to 800
-Changed Avenger damage type from ENERGY to FRAGMENTATION.
-Lowered Plasma Bomb Launcher damage from 200 to 100.
This should lower the Mako (M)'s damage significantly; but still give plenty of damage to hurt bigger ships.

I wish this mod had an option where Mayasuran has already taken over all of the astropoli, or at least a version where the abandoned astropolis is colonized. I immediately colonized the abandoned astropolis and renamed it the Reclaimed Astropolis using the Terraforming and Station Building mod, but was very slightly disappointed that there was no option to do so through the mod.
The ships are amazing in this mod all things considered, the amount of unnecessary lore you added is outstanding and of the highest quality. I especially like the hammerhead battleship and the mine laying support ship. The (M) type ships feel almost overtuned, but that might just be because of the commissioned crew's bonuses, very fun. Thank you for making this mod!

A few small bugs and other things I've noticed playing this excellent mod.

The description for Mairaath has the phrase "What remains is a charred yet unbroken, the carefully..." which is probably missing a word after unbroken.

The custom planet descriptors for Mayasura conquered core worlds for Nexerelin doesn't seem to work. In my game Jangala at least is showing the default message despite being held by Mayasura.

Also it would be nice in modded games that allow stations to be built or settle if the description for the Abandoned Astropolis around Mairaath could get a fitting colony descriptor once it gets rebuilt.

The Stormbreaker's weapon Heavy Mauler (Fighter) has the rare_bp tag in weapon_data.csv so it can show up as a buildable weapon.

Excalibur (M) ship system Variable Ammo and Influence Minelayer (Fighter) have no descriptions, and the Joker Protocol and Safties Switch abilities have no type description (no descriptor text for DRONE_LAUNCHER and STAT_MOD type I'm guessing?).

The Avenger weapon exists in the codex in two different forms with different icons. Not sure where the second variety is supposed to appear but one should probably have the restricted tag to make it not show up in the codex.

HE/KE/cluster dummy weapons should also have the restricted tag.

Orbital Howitzer weapon description "attached to the Starliner (M)s belly" is a little awkward. Might want to change to "attached to the belly of the Starliner (M)."

Onocrotalus Autocannon manufacturing icon is huge. Looks fine in inventory and on ships so I'm not sure what's causing it. Compare to Arbalest Battery under known blueprints to see the difference in size.

The Starliner (M) using the same description text for the base hull after the variant text is a bit weird. You could potentially create a custom entry in descriptions.csv and have the .skin descriptionId point to that if you ever wanted to write different base text for a variant. Same for the Scaramouche (CJ) which still mentions the baked in Heavy Ion Lances despite the switch to Heavy UV Pulse Lasers.

Also this is a very minor nitpick, but ships like the Hammerhead (M), Sunder (M), and Vigilance (M) being new .ship designs rather than a .skin mod of the base ship breaks any other mod's alterations to the ship's descriptions. I know that making a new ship with similar visuals to a core model yet with different stats for modding purposes, rather than resorting to hidden hull mods, is just easier and cleaner, and I doubt most people would ever notice, but as someone who wrote more detailed lore for those ships it's sad to see them missing from the full codex.

The ship and weapon lineup images for this mod could probably use an update, since several of the new ship additions are buried near the end of the thread.

Finally, not a bug but a matter of personal opinion, but the Triple Beam Cannon seems to be very underwhelming despite the high paper DPS. Compared to the Heavy UV Pulse Laser that does hard flux damage, it hits like a wet noodle against anything with even semi decent shields. As for other beam weapons, taking into consideration the shield busting spike damage of the Tachyon Lance or the armor stripping ability of the High Intensity Laser, and it really has very little to offer for such a high flux cost, high fitting cost, and range penalty on top of everything else. I want to like this weapon so much but it just doesn't work when almost anything else is available.

Anyway, keep up the great work. I look forward to your next update.

Since we're talking while waiting for the update, I've been curious about something for a while:

When you join the Mayasuran faction through Nexerelin it puts you in charge of the faction instead of just Commissioned by them (as you are with every other faction).

Was there a reason you didn't make "get placed in charge of everything" as a Custom Start or Custom Scenario, which are different options, and leave the generic faction section as a conventional Commission?  ???

8.3.8
-Changed Avenger damage type from FRAGMENTATION TO ENERGY.
-Lowered Avenger damage from 250 to 200.
-Added ammo system to the Avenger.
This basically makes the Avenger feel like a bigger auto pulse laser. Use with expanded mags for full effect and 6.5 seconds of nonstop firing.

-Removed two medium missile mounts from Skysplitter (M)
-Added two decks to Skysplitter (M)
So this setup reflects the Mayasuran doctrine better with a focus on battlecarriers. Also, new sprite.

-Added Loyalist (M)
-Added Carnwennan (M)
-Added Spartan (M)
-Added Victory (M)

-Added in new Fleet Commander.

-Added 11 NEW SHIPGIRL portraits
Big thanks to Auxilia Genome for the art!

-Fixed Hammerhead left hardpoint position by 2 pixels.
-Fixed some descriptions
-Removed rare_bp from heavy mauler (fighter)

-Raised DPS of the Triple Beam Cannon to 1000 (From 750)
-Raised damage of the Triple Beam Cannon to 533 (From 400)
-Flux effiency of Triple Beam Cannon to 1.0 (From 1.37)

-Raised damage/sec of Heavy Ion Lance to 1000 (From 450)
This will let the Heavy Ion Lance compete with the Tachyon Lance in terms of soft flux damage for shields.

I don't mean to sound ungrateful or rude but if I were to remove all of the ship girl portraits at player.faction and portraits the mod wouldn't cause any problems right?

Alternatively, would the shipgirls show up as random characters on player fleets and colonies or is it literally just a choice for player portraits? Cuz if that's the case no problem.

It's just for the player faction, I kinda expected people to sorta go halfsies on liking them or not. You won't see this in any Mayasuran fleets.

You should be careful if you have one of the old Skysplitters built. I had two of them in my fleet stash of my homeworld and had to do some save file editing in order to recover the save. It wasn't too bad, thankfully, because I'm comfortable with XML and knew in general what I was looking for, but it's not strictly save-compatible due to the changes made in that hull.

I like this modification. The ships correspond to the general style of the ships from the base game and therefore they do not cause rejection. Very beautiful work.

But with every game I have the same problem with this modification, not an error, but a problem.

Playing with nexerelin, the Mayasura fraction is destroyed literally in the first cycle by the combined forces of hegemony and the iron shell. The faction has only one planet at its disposal and cannot produce a huge number of patrol fleets. I understand that it is impossible to make this faction an equal player in this alliance. Maybe the faction will have a predisposition to ally with strong factions in order to survive? Or a completely ugly suggestion on my part - is it possible to use this modification only as a set of ships and weapons, without introducing an additional faction into the game?

Hi guys. First of all, great mod. I like the visual compliance with vanilla ships the most. I am especially fan of Javanicus and Arjuna (their visuals). Hence the question: How do you guys go about equipping Javanicus? I was so hyped when I got my hand on it and now I cant make it work. First problem is that it is broadsider. Meaning only half of her guns will ever fire. Worse, if you broadside, you cant finish your target with missile slots (which are fixed forwards) and if I am facing forwards to use those torps and 2 large ballistic slots, I have no PDs (in those small slats facing sidewards). Really awkward layout. I might try looking of rthe SF variant since the corvette squad is also meh, 3 fighter squads can do more for sure (at least you can equip torp bombers and then go full kinetic with the ship.
Thanks for suggestions

Post by: raptormother on October 25, 2022, 06:14:39 AM
The Javanicus isn't that different in concept from a Conquest. Choose which side you want to broadside with, put mostly cheap/PD weapons on the other side, and put either tracking missiles on the front, or expend all ammunition of your front torpedoes before you get into broadside range

Instead, I wanted to ask something: I've seen a "Joker" drone in the codex which sounds amazing, but for the life of me, I can't find any blueprint or wing anywhere. Is it only a built in wing, or can it actually be acquired?

The other variants have significantly better DPS capabilities thanks to high energy focus, but the M variant's built-in cannon is basically like two autopulse lasers in one, with significantly better flux stats. The M variant has lots of flux headroom and an astonishing amount of speed if you've got the ship ability skill.

Yea after putting some cryoflamers on it it works better.

Unrelated but can anyone produce a Victory (M)? When i put it on custom production it pays the money but it doesnt make the ship.
It works when i produce it via pirates or another faction, but not when i do it.

8.3.8 RC3
-Changed Moa's large energy arcs from 185 to 210.
This should make the Moa more reliable in converging all of its weapons.
-Fixed Heavy Ion Lance builtins on the Scaramouche.
Now they should have the same damage as the modular version.
-Added Rhea-Class Superheavy Cruiser
This is the penultimate Mayasuran cruiser,  capable of huge broadsides typical of your average playstyle along with a sizable missile array.

I just want to check, because these numbers seem off. Are the built in Heavy Ion Lances on the Scaramouche/(M) meant to have 15,000 damage? The codex listing for the weapon lists a (still high but more reasonable) 1,800 damage. I've double checked that I'm on the latest 8.3.8 RC3 release as well. Wondering if it's a bug or a feature. Those things evaporate anything they get in range in to the point where I don't want to use the ship, sadly.

My game crashes on startup whenever I try to use this mod with the Linux version of Starsector.  Works just fine with the Windows version, however.
The issue is with sprite filenames and their references in code. Linux is case-sensitive whereas windows is not.
To get the mod working you will have to rename 1 file located in mayasuran navy/graphics/mayasura/ships/
MSS_Superdes.png ---> MSS_SuperDes.png
That did it, it works now!  Thank you!

I'm going to add that the mod searches for MSS_SuperDes.png but also looks for MSS_Superdes_Elite.png. That inconsistent capitalization made me "fix" the latter which caused a crash too. Just a warning that inconsistent capitalization like this is going to cause problems on linux.

Just wanted to say that this is my fav mod both lorewise and shipwise, it has great designs and i love the mayasurans rising up against the hegemonkeys. My only complaint is the fact that the Mokorran has a ballistic large mount instead of an energy one like his smaller brother Winghead :v. Besides that great mod!

WELCOME TO MAYASURA

https://github.com/KnightShii/Starsector/raw/master/Mayasuran%20Navy%208.3.9%20RC2.zip

8.3.9 RC2
-Renamed Mammoth in files to Onbu Railgun, this makes it so that when you select the Onbu Railgun in the hullmod thing, it shows you bright yellow texture
-Adjusted Onbu Railgun sound lower to half volume
might still be loud, haha
-Changed Spartan filename to MSS_Spartan.png and elite Version to MSS_Spartan_Elite.png
this should fix the linux version, I apologize!

8.3.9
-Added in weapon swapping to Skysplitter (M)
Base Weapon for the Skysplitter is the Avenger
Secondary Weapon is the Mark IX Rotary Autocannon, which is the Avenger but kinetic.
Tertiary Weapon is the Tiger Grenade Launcher which fires high explosive grenades that explode on proximity or max range. Use with ballistic configuration or ITU to maximize range and firepower.
Quaternary Weapon is the Onbu Railgun, which is a massive double barreled fragmentation railgun that shoots really fast and destroys hull on impact.

-Added in system swapping to Skysplitter (M)
Base Version of the Skysplitter is the SPEED CONFIGURATION, with Infernium Burn as its main system.
Version B of the Skysplitter is the ENERGY CONFIGURATION, which swaps out the system to High Energy Focus and swaps the medium mounts out for energy mounts. (Do note you'll have to click on and off of the ship for it to work in the refitting screen.
Version C of the Skysplitter is the OVERDRIVEN CONFIGURATION, which swaps out the system to Safeties Switch and gives it a COOL paintjob.
Version D of the Skysplitter is the BALLISTIC CONFIGURATION, which swaps out the system to Accelerated Ammo Feeder.

-Added in new fighter wing, Aznable.

A high-damage, high-velocity, twin-linked frag 'railgun' that actually shoots a jet of plasma.
Now where have I seen this before...?

Did VIC steal the Onbu prototypes and reverse-engineer them into the Laidlaw guns? Or did Mayasura steal a Heavy Laidlaw to make it better?
Either way, I'm sure VIC's legal flotillas have already been dispatched.

Is the new version supposed to be compatible with save games running old version or did i find a lovely bug?

So I have essentially photoshopped some custom portraits for this mod. Considering the Arabic sounding theme, I've taken upon myself to basically "borrow" some Space Arabs and Normal Arabs images and made it work. I was hoping that I can convince some people to help make some more of these. I am quite happy with the result I've made, but I feel quantity is sorely needed. I've so far created eight, I am uploading four of them. I will upload the rest in the following post.

And these are the rest of the Space Arabs I've made. Have fun! (Actually, now that I think about it, I feel like I might've not actually photoshopped Maya6 from any where. I don't remember where I got Maya6. I might've taken this from one of the portrait mods and just forgot I did that. Either way, this portrait is fitting, so I'm leaving it here.)

Title: Re: [0.95.1a] Mayasuran Navy 9.0.0
Post by: Knight Chase on March 17, 2023, 01:47:06 PM
https://github.com/KnightShii/Starsector/raw/master/Mayasuran%20Navy%209.0.0.zip

9.0.0
-Added new Sprite for Tiger Grenade Launcher
-Added new weapons for Aznable Mech
These are gonna be the vulcan head and the triple beam cannon condensed into a pistol for the Aznable's arm
-Buffed Manta (M)
I've added a medium hybrid hardpoint to the front center of this thing. I've also changed the small energy hardpoints up front to be missile mounts. All of the small turrets have been turned into hybrid plus I've given this thing more OP, 95 from 75.
-Changed Nailer/Nailer (M)
I've  changed the Nailer to be a medium-light frigate like the Perryi with twin 'Nail' Cannons that are basically miniatuarized triple beam cannons. You'll find its ability to pursue its enemies with built-in firepower and especially if you install high scatter amplifier, it is a force to be reckoned with.
These changes represent myself wanting to see people use some of my under utilized ships.
-Added Vishnu-class Battleship
This is one of the largest capital ships I have ever made. It outscales all of my current ships and can serve as the ULTIMATE fleet anchor. However, it is slow and equipped with capital jets limiting your mobility. One thing to note is that the Vishnu has an Advanced Targeting Core, you'll be able to provide support from quite a distance.
-Changed back flag to old flag
people seem to like the old flag more it seems
-Switched Neutral theme to Friendly theme

I HAVE FINALLY FIXED THE SKYSPLITTER (M) BUG, REJOICE

https://github.com/KnightShii/Starsector/raw/master/Mayasuran%20Navy%209.0.0%20RC2.7z

9.0.0 RC2
-FIXED SKYSPLITTER (M) BUG FINALLY
Okay so if you get a D-modded Skysplitter, it will lack the swap hullmod for the system. However, if you restore the Skysplitter, you will gain access to the base Skysplitter hull and be able to swap systems again. I hope this fixes it for those that have problems!
-Adjusted volume for Mark VII cannons to 25%
I've noticed it was a bit loud! I have turned it down, haha.

I've enjoyed this mod for a number of years, and I'm happy to see it's progress each time I come back to the game. However, I've noticed some vanilla-unfriendly portraits got snuck in, and I don't see it documented on the forum page (unless I missed it?) or a config option to disable these anime profile pictures.

I originally picked this mod, many years ago at this point, because it was one of the few faction mods that was vanilla-inspired. These portraits aren't really what I was expecting to be added without a notice.

Would it be too much to ask for a config option or an upfront notice about anime portraits being included?

The inclusion of anime art on the front page is not the same as adding it to the list of features on the front page. "Mayasuran Anime Portraits, available to player and Mayasuran Officers" would be more reflective of what to expect in the new updates.

I've been enjoying the mod for years, my first comment is a handful of months after it was released. I'm just asking for it to be listed in the features and have a config, especially for those of us returning to the mod once the new game update drops.

Respectfully, it pretty much does. The front page of the mod will set expectations, if you see anime stuff there, you should expect anime stuff in the mod.
But yes, i will agree it should be noted and added as a config setting. Iron Shell does has a similar problem.

The Aznable fighter feels really OP, they might not deal as much initial damage up front like bombers but Aznables have such a powerful armament that can't be shot down like a missiles and they're durable and fast enough to deal great damage before they die. If the enemy ship doesn't have any omni shield, the Aznable can do quite a number on their engine as well since they will float around firing their weapons. Most fighters that could deal some damage to ships used a much weaker weapon such as Light Mortars and are often slow. After the 9.0.0 patch, they even gained the Triple Beam Cannon to deal more damage, the Assault Chaingun means they could already do good damage to any ship without omni shields.

I did several solo fight test in the Simulation with no Character Fleetwide Skills, Officers or built in hullmods of a Heron with 3 Aznable Fighters vs an Eagle, Dominator and Onslaught. The Aznable absolutely dumpstered the Eagle and Dominator. The Onslaught didn't die or take heavy damage instantly but the Aznables still managed to deal decent damage and I think the Heron might eventually be able to kill it with enough time. While a solo battle in the Simulation is not a completely accurate test of a real battle since there likely won't be only one ship, it kinda goes the other way too since it means in a real battle you could multiple carrier spam with full Aznable fighters. I think its kinda showing something is way too overtuned with the Aznable fighter. Maybe reduce its speed greatly so its more in tune with other Heavy Fighters that are slow so easy to shoot down or change its weapon completely since other Heavy fighters capable of some damage to larger ships usually use a weaker weapon such as Light Mortars.

The weebery on the front page now makes me confused. I was genuinely thinking I'd see something like Iron Shell or UAF with customized characters you'd talk to and develop relationships with/contacts. But that's not the case. Future plans maybe?

As a small aside, it'd be cool if you had the option (maybe a market setting? Iunno) to swap music. I find their enemy music so amazing, and while the good terms music is good, it doesn't get your blood pumping for beating up the Hedge quite as well.

As an aside, I wish I could rip Iron Shell away from Hedge alliance. Mayonaisse, Gestalt Decivilized, and Iron Bucketz would make a great group. I'd invite Anime Space Pilots, but they're overpowered.

I just watched the "effort put into uncompleted projects" go from about 850,000/900,000 to 175,000/900,000...

I've had the strangest bug with trying to build a vishnu. I managed to get a blueprint for it and set it to build, but after many many months seeing it still eating 175k worth of construction i realized it was ever finishing. I just watched the "effort put into uncompleted projects" go from about 850,000/900,000 to 175,000/900,000...
I dont even know where i would go to report this, is this a problem with the ship, or is it a problem with high ticket ships!?

I am getting the same bug.  Instead of getting the ship I get a bunch of supplies, fuel and crew.  I also got this but on another ship but I don't remember which one, but I do know the skysplitter works as I have built on of those.  I am in the middle of building a couple of other Mayasuran ships so I may edit to update info on those.

Pretty sure i had a similar bug. I was'nt giving it out all my attention at first, but after 6-8 month that i though the thing should be close to done, it was'nt ; there was still over half to do.

So i cant give much detail on what happen because i was'nt expecting a probleme, but it take way over the right time/credit to build for sure.

Want to say I always noticed Mayasuran system and it's story. It seemed like a light of hope for the sector to be better if only due to their terraforming technology. Also for some reason about their last stand I can't get the song for the battle of the line out of my head when trying that mission. Just want to say love it so far and wonder does do the gaggle of ship girls in post one appear in any sort of story content >.>?!

I have met a especially strange problem with the newest version 9.0.0 RC3. The Skysplitter (M) battlecrusier is somehow classified as a civilian ship, which makes its ai always try to avoid combat and act akwardly in auto mode. I'm currently not sure how its triggered, but it seems to be quite common, even in campaigns or simulations. Don't know if thats just me?(http://2023-04-07.png)

@Knight Chase

1. Music on Mairaath is too loud compared to the rest of the game.

2. Damage Type on Triple Beam Cannon is wrong. Should be High Explosive (Beam) like the High Intensity Laser, if you want it to be Anti Armor.

3. Some ships like the Scaramouche have differrent weapon mounts/systems than their regular counterparts. Bug or feature?

Sad thing is right after I gave them the whole system, they started preparing an expedition fleet to my colony to disrupt my markets. LOL

Hmm, I'm getting that exact same crash, except I'm not using Mayasuran Navy at all. I'm having a much harder time repeating it, though.

Earlier, we were having consistent issues with the Energon Bazooka because its projectiles are meant to use the same arming code as phase mines, but Alex changed the name of the missiletype of it from phase_mine to phase_charge (Alex messed with mines this patch). It's likely something similar here, if the Didymoi mines were based on an existing vanilla missiletype. From the GuidedProximityFuseAI entry, I'm guessing it's the same issue here.

(Frustratingly, I'm now getting a similar crash in a different combat, but I cannot find the culprit since it's not invoking a FuseAI, just the MissileAI, and in other combats all the suspects seem to behave.)

Post by: Knight Chase on June 07, 2023, 05:31:15 AM
10.0.0 RC2
-Fixed Didymoi Minelayer
New missile behavior means it activates as soon as it gets in range rather than a timer. While unfortunate, I can't change this I think.
-Added pass through to the Mark VII projectiles, Caliburnus Railgun projectiles, Charged UV Pulse Cannon Projectiles.
These are all big projectiles with a lot of damage. So have fun sniping multiple fighters at once!
-Increased refire time of Mark VII to 12 seconds.
-Increased refire time of Armored Box Launcher to 12 seconds.
Both of these weapons will be keeping their massive alpha damage, however, you will have to be more deliberate with your shots.
-Increased the damage of the Orbital Howitzer from 1200 to 2000.
With how unwieldy this gun is, it deserves MORE damage.

Wow, the number of ships continues to grow. I almost wonder if it might be time to consider splitting the ship roster, adding a second faction. In keeping with the Mayasura theme, maybe an exodus branch, some colony located far outside of the core worlds. Planning to return home and punish the Hegemony after building up in secret?

Right now it feels like Mayasura has a WW2 Germany design ethos, all variants all the time.  ;D

However, I've noticed some vanilla-unfriendly portraits got snuck in, and I don't see it documented on the forum page (unless I missed it?) or a config option to disable these anime profile pictures. I originally picked this mod, many years ago at this point, because it was one of the few faction mods that was vanilla-inspired. These portraits aren't really what I was expecting  >:( >:( >:(

Hello, I seem to have a bug related to portraits in this mod?

"ERROR com.fs.graphics.for  - Error loading [graphics/portraits/mcp/mayasura_01.png] resource, not found in [E:\Games\Starsector\starsector-core\..\mods" It repeats this same error for several other mayasura_x portraits, yet I cannot find anything with that name in the folders.

That mod's front page artworks are literal thirst traps using said portrait characters as the main attraction. If you expected the mod itself to not have any kind of weeb degeneracy in it, you had high hopes.

In any case, you can just replace the portraits you don't like with vanilla ones. And even if you don't, the only time you see is during character creation. No npc will ever use it iirc.

Means there's a portrait missing. Maybe re download the mod and see if the problem persists. If it does, then you might need to either add portraits that'll have the ID, or remove it from the .faction using them.

Edit: tested it myself just to be sure, had no problem. So yep, just deleting and reinstalling the mod should fix the issue.

Thanks I tried that, but no, it wasn't right as Mayasure doesn't have an "mcp" folder, so I don't know where this is coming from. But thank you for the assistance.

10.0.1 RC1
-No more shadow on Vishnu's Mark VII guns
-Added Victory M and Vishnu M to buildables for Mayasura.
This basically means you should  be able to build the Vishnu and Victory M successfully now
-Added in System swap to Victory (M)
So, I've added plasma jets, high energy focus and mine strike as variants of the Victory (M), each with their own unique paint job. I look forward to seeing your builds!

Not at the moment, no. In lore reason is that the Eagles got badly damaged after the attack and were forced to be converted to the Sarissophoroi-class.

A shame I love the Eagle from Vanilla. Regardless, the Sarissophoroi and the baby Eagle (Falcon) will nourish me for the moment. Also, by chance do you have a patreon or Ko-fi? I would love for you to continue this amazing Midline Mod.

Hello again, the Zyrith Thrall portrait doesn't seem to be loadable. At the bounty page and fleet encounter, where the portrait should be is pitch black. Also the Zyrith(M) is lacking a description.

Edit: After deeper playthrough I found that the HVB ships are buildable by contacts, not sure if that's intended behavior. The Crusader(M) doesn't have the Mayasuran Prime hullmod either.

So I've started a new run with Vayra's Sector and found a interesting fact. The HVBs with Vayra's Sector are functioning normally, while in MagicBounty they always come with an lvl 14 Admiral. The Zyrith's Portrait can display in a HVB pop-up message, but it is still black in the Bounty page.

It lets you control the world of mairaath, a former vassal of the persean league, that hates luddics and heggies. If you don't play as them, it adds some cool ships, a few bounties, and a tiny faction, and thats all.

So, got to ask, is all the shipgirl artwork your doing? Also are the amount linked to all there is or is there perhaps more to be had? Of course, the main focus is for the faction and ships, but nothing wrong with appreciating some quality artwork presented to help give some real character to the ships in question!

Noticed something odd about the Rhea class superheavy cruiser, the normal rhea in the codex has four large ballistics, the medium ballistic between the larges up the front is a large has a fourth large placed atop it for some reason. its not like that with the actually accessible variants, or the (M) variant in the codex.

The normal rhea literally just has an extra large mount set below the middle medium. its seemingly inaccessible, but its there.

Any particular reason you removed the National and Nebulosa outright?

They weren't popular ships and I wanted to downsize.

I use ver 10.0.2 RC1, and since the new version removed 2 ship, I get error with my save file.
It seem the ship being use by some faction?
How can i solved this issue?

Thanks

True, but i change the gameversion in the mod_info and the mod still working even until ver 0.97a-RC8.
But now I stuck when I want to use the new version =.=.
Guess I will stuck with 10.0.2 RC1 until I finished my run.

I've downloaded the latest version, and am trying to start a new game using only this mod and it's requirement. I can't seem to figure out how to get a commission? There is only one mayasuran planet, and there is no npc on it that is giving out comissions? Is there some other way to get a comission?

The issue seems to be a lack of administrators for Mayasura, since I think you can only commission through them. I don't think you can turn in survey data or AI cores either. Is there a way to fix this in my current save, by running a command or something?

Is this intentional ? Seems like you should be able to get a commission if just doing vanilla starsector with this one mod installed.

It's May, 207 and this just happened:

(https://i.imgur.com/2Kq4ROW.png)

I've been using this mod since 8.3.8 and I've never seen this happen before without player intervention. All I've done this run is Space Trucking and bounties, I haven't even started the galatia quest yet. I legit thought that Mairaath had some sort of scripted immunity to getting capped. It is cool, except I now have the option of either colonizing and handing a size 3 colony over to Mayasura and hoping they can claw their way back (unlikely) or going to war with the Heg.

Is there any way to actually make Mairaath uncappable? I love this mod too much to let Nexerelin get in the way. As it is, I don't think it's intended for this to happen as the Vengeance of Mairaath defender fleet is just sitting in orbit of Mairaath destroying any Hegemony fleets that come near or pop out of the planet.

Also RIP the National, I couldn't understand how to use it effectively but I loved the design and concept. At least we still have the Patriot.

I think I've found a rough workaround using Nexerelin's "groundBattleSettings" array. I added it to mayasura.json in data/config/exerelinFactionConfig/mayasura.json, and set "defenseMult:1.5","moraleDamageTakenMult":0.5

Ever since I did this the Hegemony seems to ignore Mairaath completely and is instead picking on others. I think I probably buffed them too hard (having zero interactions between Hegemony and Mayasura isn't ideal for me) but it's preferable to seeing them get deleted 3 months into 206. I've barely tested this (my first run died in early 207 and my second run is currently in late 207, so far so good) but I think it's working.

I miss the nebulosa... That was legitimately my favorite capital... More specifically the base variant, I still haven't come across the carrier variant but I still love it to bits, it's too expensive imo but it was always my go-to capital. Other than that, love this mod, being my first mod to ever download I greatly appreciate you giving me my first enhanced gameplay of star sector... Spartan supremacy

No, if its not on the front page, there isn't one.
Also, I suggest using the search function first instead of asking this in every thread you're in as it has already been answered a year ago. The shipgirls only appear in character creation. Learning how to change faction portrait assignments is faster than waiting on an answer, as is actually just trying the mod.

Mairaath isn't uncappable, it simply always has a massive S-Modded armada around it, that gets replaced on wipe. If it gets attritioned to a small, nonzero size, an invasion can still find success, since Mairaath has little in the way of defenses aside from the fleet.

Thought I'd like to confirm with what secondcircle posted. I went to check the "open the comm directory" option and the planet doesn't have an administrator. Mairaath just has 1x Grand Navarch, 1x Portmaster, 2x Officers (just two randoms, neither has any actual dialog options) 1x Quartermaster and 1x Ambassador. I do run a modded starsector too so I can't confirm as of now whether the admin does show up or not. I think if you start a new game as the Mayasuran Navy you should have access to the planet, but otherwise that's it, no commission access to their ships unless you take a while via the agent ship procurement (or console commands, but that's missing the point ;D )

So I have a minor bug report. I'm looking to build the Paladin (M) and it doesn't seem to come with the built in Mayasuran Prime Warship mod like every other (M) ship.

Otherwise, I'm loving this mod! I'm in the middle of a Mayasuran campaign. The ships are a ton of fun. Just built a Vishnu and I'm making the Hegemony cry. Lots of fun. Thank you!

For anyone wondering how to get the Mayasuran Commission, I just happened upon this purely by RNG with no other mods running (aside from the ones required to run this) alongside it. Now I'm not sure if this will work for everyone but since it worked for me, I figured, why not everyone else?

So anyway, I was going through the bars looking for jobs and I happened upon one for a military bounty, so I took it. Upon completion I got a potential contact with an Archon from the Mayasuran Navy. So I registered the contact, lo and behold, the Archon has the commission option, among others.

[edit]: Okay, also happen to be running a portrait pack mod as well, though I doubt that had any real impact.

I've completely eradicated the Mayasuran faction, but the Vengeance Of Mairaath fleet keeps re-spawning over and over every time I destroy it. Is this intended, or has something gone awry?

The luddic church eradicated them in my latest game, and its not the first time they've gotten decimated. Factions that only have one planet just don't do well with nex and a bunch of active larger factions. I like their ships too much to not use the mod though.
