Starsector 0.95.1a is out! (12/10/21); In-development patch notes for Starsector 0.96a (02/01/23)
Planet incompatibility with Blackrock Drive Yards mod. Great work as always just wanted to bring to your attention.Spoiler[close]
Is there any chance that we'll get an option in the future to change the campaign layer drawing for stations to those of whatever orbital station you've built, if any?
I think the only time where I had astropoli positioned weirdly, one of them was a restored station. It could be that restored stations are not being counted for setting the angle of each station, so depending on station orbit it could end up in either a straight line away from the planet or overlapping.
Hitting it with a PK turns it into an irradiated world, but that can only be marginally upgraded, still.Hello!
Is there a way to finagle the configs to terraform gas giant planets as well?
Thanks
No, terraforming of gas giants is not possible using TASC. Sorry!
Learned that on a test game with lucifron.
Balance would definitely be the key, but I think it's worth it since the autonomous station is quite the powerhouse by itself with negligible drawbacks
If you use secrets of the frontier you can already use a stable point in a system to build a habitat which would overlap with the addition of another habitat type.
Is there any special features with the Remnant Station with a Alpha Core? what if sometimes they went rogue and established a remnant nexus somewhere in the planet? send defense fleets to systems that are threatened by fleets such as pirate/path as long there is a military building with an alpha core in that alpha core remnant station system.
Also, thanks for all your hard work these years boggled, can't imagine myself playing this game without TSC
QuoteNo, astropoli cannot be constructed at stable locations. I'm not going to add this feature because the astropolis station is based on the lore of Mairaath and the three astropoli it had before the Pather attack.
I was thinking along the lines of a resourceless station like Groombridge Habitat or Ragnar Complex that orbit the star rather than a large planet.
For roleplay reasons I usually create an Astropolis and change it's position and orbiting entity via save editing (usually by copying and pasting the host planet's orbit data with a small edit so they don't overlap) and use that as my first colony. Or take over a resourceless Pirate colony, but that usually invites saturation bombing from other factions in the system.
But save editing every time gets tedious, and I was hoping for an easier method by just tweaking the Astropolis Construction option (change the requirement from planet to star and set the range to a hypothetical Goldilocks zone dependant on the star's size and type). But there was nothing in the config that I could change personally to do this.
Something that bothers me about the autonomous battlestation is that when built it'll label that planet with the (military) tag as if it had a military base and such. The problem is, if i wanna build the AI battlestation on all my planets then every planet will have the tag and it's a little weird, would you consider removing the tag for the AI battlestation?
Seems like resource improvements are straight up overpowered?
I have 2 questions
1. Is there a way to allow the building of an astropolis in a stable point as well, rather than just around a planet?
2. For the mining stations (and astropolis as well) can I have it display the orbital station/battle station/star fortress instead of the default station sprite in the campaign map like the orbital stations built on planets?
Hi everyone,
First, thank you for all these incredibles mods, and thank you for this one in particular, it brings a lot to Starsector !
I ran into a problem while using the Perihelion Project Structure. How long is it supposed to take to build a Coronal Hypershunt ? I have the good requirements, blue giant and resources, everything is supplied in-faction. Nevertheless, the progression seems to be stucked at 1 %, and it's been something like six months already. Is it a UI bug or is the project simply not going to progress because of something else ?
Thanks in advance.
Hello!

Hello mate!
First of all, bug report- if you open the add industry or structure menu and hover over World Symbols, your stability immediately increases by one as if you had built it, and if you close the window while still hovering over it, the +1 stability stays lol. Sure, the moment you do something that causes a stability update, or just close/reopen the colony's screen, it corrects itself... But it's still funny you can briefly gaslight your entire colony (:
Second, would there be any tiny little chance for the mining station sprite to start using the vanilla mining station blueprint, maybe also be a little bigger? I like that one better, and as small as they come I can barely see them... I asked the same a few months, maybe years back, but I don't know if it would be feasible now.
Third- do you think it would make sense to change the domed cities defense penalty to be a little lower if you have a planetary shield? It would block most of a bombardment and stop hovering warships from pounding down the domes- though it would still be a big vulnerability.
Fourth- I've never used it, so I don't know if it already does it... But I think it would be nice to be able to use a PK device on a barren, uninhabited world to crack it and replace it with a dense asteroid field for a mining station! Either that, or maybe make it develop extreme tectonic activity, and obtain an orbiting asteroid belt?
Thanks and have a nice day
Hi, is there a way to disable Domed cities but keep the underwater cities enabled?

Or grab proper code and execute it with the console, not that I can help with that...
So essentially you tried to build three astropolis stations around a single planet, and two of them spawned in the same location?yes
Does this need a new game or can you add it to an existing save?
any way to remove transplutonics from a planet ? each planet i want to place the farming item it have transplutonics sadly
Just built a mining station and built a station expansion on it, but it currently shows a -12 growth malus on the station from the cramped quarters. I don't know if it's related but I apparently turned on Starfarer mode for this run.
What settings do you have for cramped quarters and station expansion? Station expansions only increase the max market size by one before the growth malus starts applying again.Code# Enables the cramped quarters setting that greatly reduces station population growth starting at the chosen value.

Just turned the option on, no changes to the values. The station was still a size 3 and hadn't experienced any growth.

2 stations in one location. I'm in the Stjarna system added by the UAF mod at the pirate planet in the system's outer rim. It's either going to be called Los Scrapyard or Namnlos as the game switches between both. Reloading fixed it but a memory leak caused me to restart so I'm not sure if the log has anything helpful. Will need to send it through discord if you need it.
Thanks for reporting this. What steps did you follow to cause this bug (ex. what type of station did you build, at what location did you build it, etc.)?
3 astropolis stations. Built the first one, added habitable and mild climate conditions, exited the station then entered it again to turn on freeport, did this again for the 2nd station, then went to the planet they were orbiting to pick up supplies for the 3rd station and moved to where I thought it would spawn in before making it, existed the station again and saw a large open area where I was expecting the station. Normally I just orbit the planet/gas giant until all the stations are built then go turn on freeport. I always add habitable and mild climate conditions to the stations I make.

Are Astropolis (astropoli?) worth building (i.e. can they make good profits)? And what are the best setups industry wise for them?
Currently have a terran world with great mining, and wondering if an Astropolis would be better than a high hazard, high mining (and extreme heat) barren world. I'll do both eventually, but don't have the resources yet.
Ayo! Love the mod, but I was wondering if there was any way to add some of the Hazardous conditions via terraforming. I don't know if there already is, but if there isn't I think that'd be a neat feature, in order to set up No Atmostsphere for the Synchrotron core and what not. Again, awesome mod, I really enjoy setting up my colonies and weighing the costs and effects of the terraforming.
