Ah, thanks for the reply. What I mean is the faction list when you press F3 and go to the faction tab. In my game it currently shows the factions I have enabled, with info on known allies, known enemies, and reputation level between the factions. I was wondering when the player creates a colony and chooses a faction name and flag, is there a way for the player faction to also show up on this list. It's more an immersion thing and not really a big deal, but was just curious.

Relatively new to Starsector, loving the game and this mod - have had a few very fun playthroughs already.

Quick question, is there a way to allow the player created faction show up on the faction list? I thought I saw someone explain how to do this in a thread somewhere, but for the life of me can't remember which thread it was.

Thanks in advance.

If you mean as a starting option, I think own faction is an option that starts you with a planet. Due to Colony Crises this is slightly harder than before

I'm encountering an issue with "find pirate base" - I've had operatives complete the operation many times, but it always finishes with no notification, and no intel. I can then have them immediately "find pirate base" again - it's as if the operation doesn't complete for some reason. Any insight?

I've noticed that when visiting a Luddic Shrine, if a novice approaches me and I select the "I'm a strong supporter of AI rights" option, Nexerelin increments the Sarcastic ethos by 1 (found in the "Personal info" panel).  Shouldn't this instead increment the Pro-AI ethos?

Copypaste into console, should do the trick: runcode Global.getSector().getPlayerFaction().setShowInIntelTab(true);

Is this with a base near a player colony generating Colony Crises contribution? That case might be buggy, I'll try to test.
(For now you'll just have to find the base yourself by going into the bar; or check the crisis intel or Pirates tab in intel in case the location is already known)

Well that's a question for David; the vanilla dialog sets the ethos, Nex just displays them in a neat table
I'll note that the rules.csv row for that dialog option has ID lppHookResponseTroll, the presumed implication being that the player character is doing it to bother the novice when they haven't even said anything yet.

Does planetary operations stats from tactical drills affect nex invasions??

EDIT: got the answer from Histidine in discord Histidine said it affects it

[Seamus Donohue]

...the presumed implication being that the player character is doing it to bother the novice when they haven't even said anything yet.

I see.  So, the fact that I am a strong supporter of AI rights is entirely beside the point.  Got it, thanks!

kinda weird how even when im ally with a faction like Tritechyon i still have to deal  with their merc raid or im ally with sindrian diktat they send attacks to me, their own ally just because i build a fuel station because my sector keep loosing fuel to pirate raiders, what kind of an alliance is this?

[Define Reality]

Greetings!

I was scouring over the github Quick Help page and the main page for the mod here, but couldn't find anything with an explanation for the "independent mode" setting for Special Task Groups.

I've toggled it on and off, but I can't tell what difference it's having on the behavior of the Task Group fleet. Hovering the option doesn't give a tooltip either, so I'm at a loss as to the function.

If anyone knows what this option does, I'd appreciate the insight.

(This mod has been such a refresher for my second playthrough, and has quite cleanly implemented some Stellaris-esque mechanics to make things more interesting. Thank you for all of the work you've done on it Histidine.)

That sounds like raids from the vanilla Crisis system that was added in the most recent game version. Crises attacks and events will occur regardless of relation standing, but there are actions you can take to negate Crises, or in some cases, resolve them permanently.

[SpaceDrake]

Yeah, the colony crises are unrelated to standing. If anything, having high relations gives you a bit of leeway in dealing with problems in... assertive ways.

[Histidine]

I'm thinking of making alliances block crises from the relevant factions, but for most of these you want the crisis to happen and get rewards from it, so maybe not.

Hello and thanks!

Independent mode just makes the task group find something to do (if possible) on its own once it's finished its current task. Might add a tooltip for that.

A suggestion, if you don't mind!

Is it possible to have an automated defense army stuff? And where you can influence how many, and how fast they respond by having a defense budget option? (even not knowing an invasion is coming when the defense budget is pitiful) And perhaps even expand it from there by having internal securities, getting a chance to get rid of any planetary debuff? Like uh, TNO style, a submod from Hoi4? Example:


I just find it quite tedious to manually select a defense fleet when, in the late game, the enemies just spam invasions. It's also to make it feel like my nation is actually a nation, not just me.

Had an interesting issue take place:
1. Started with skipped story, tri-tech commission start. Made all of the story-based potential contacts into established contacts.
2. Hegemony got super-aggressive, nearly wiped out Persean League before I got a single colony up of my own.
3. I started getting PL raids on my system, but...
4. Hegemony took over all PL planets and removed the faction from the game (no restarting the faction, as per settings).
5. PL system raids continue now. I still have the gens Yaribay contact (on now Hegemony-held Kazeron), but as far as I can tell that's the last sign of them in-game.

Will try deleting his contact tomorrow and see if PL raids go away.

Might have to implement auto-spawning defense fleets at some point (but not in the very next version, that one's coming out sooner than I'd planned to fix some moderately serious bugs).

Is the League still appearing in the Colony Crises intel? It should stop doing this if the League has no military markets left, but I think there's a (vanilla) bug where the harassment fleets can still be generated.
Copypasting this into console may work around it:

Code: java

runcode Global.getSector().getPlayerMemoryWithoutUpdate().setBoolean("$defeatedLeagueBlockade", true);

EDIT: fixed runcode
