Hi, I don’t mean to bother you, and I'm simply motivated by curiosity and admiration for the work on this mod, so I’d like to ask the following:
1) Is it planned to add more ships from the Great Houses?
a) If so, will they be more low-tech ships that match the distinctive aesthetic and values of the Great Houses—like armor, timeflow, etc.?
b) Or will they be entirely new ships like the Metafalica or Izanami?
2) Is additional content planned for the mod, such as more weapons/ships?
3) Where did the idea for the Castigator come from? I love that design, in all its versions.
Random info that's even less important (i mean is important to me lol), but here's the fourth question:
Spoiler
When I started playing Starsector, I downloaded a bunch of mods without even trying vanilla, and the first campaign I played, I started with that ship—the Castigator. It was so perfect that I thought it was vanilla (though I lost it after a few battles because I had no idea what I was doing), but I’ve loved it ever since and I still buy it whenever I can.
In another run (also playing with the Castigator btw), I found the KARMA-class ship with 2 Taffetas and 1 Silk, and it was glorious to have it as support. I never managed to find it again, but I loved how it had so many hidden abilities/tools. And visually, the particle effects of the weapons and the aesthetic of the ships are gorgeous.
4) Where did the idea for this ship and its weapons come from? The way it came into my hands, how it was presented, and the weapons it had—I honestly loved it all.
Thank you so much in advance!
