Suggestions / Re: What do people think about flux transfer between ships?
« on: October 07, 2024, 06:17:32 PM »
Possibly balanced if it only drains soft flux, essentially a +dissipation buff.

Hi.
It would help if you also posted your code.
Also, inquiries about modding are more suited for the modding sub-forum.

Fandom ads make the mobile site difficult to navigate. I'm in favor of any alternative that lessens that.

Suggestions / Re: Hellbore buff?
« on: February 20, 2024, 02:54:36 PM »
If you had to buff Hellbore change it to mag-based, 4 ammo 750 burst 250 constant DPS. Essentially give it the storm needler treatment.

General Discussion / Re: Math question about damage reductions
« on: February 19, 2024, 10:17:14 AM »
What SCC said, but since I already typed this out:
The Starsector method gives a 'flat' scaling in that damage reduction will give a multiplicative bonus to effective HP.
Damage reduction can be thought of as effectively an HP bonus. -50% damage reduction effectively gives 100% more HP. -10% damage reduction gives 1/0.9 = ~1.11 = 11% more effective HP.
If the damage reduction was additive, taking -10% ten times would give a -100% damage reduction, or an infinite increase in effective HP.
Multiplicatively, 10% damage reduction ten times gives 1.11^10 = ~2.87 HP factor = +187% effective HP.
There are not diminishing returns, the damage reduction stacks multiplicatively. Every damage reduction multiplies both the base HP and the 'HP' effectively added by every other damage reduction.
I'm not going to get into how this works with the Armor mechanics.

Firstly talk to a moderator about moving this to Bugs & Tech Support (Modded)
Secondly I think it looks like Ashes of the Domain is the culprit, similar to this report

Been having fun with an EP Sunder running HIL / IRLs attached to a Legion / Onslaught. Deletes anything smaller than a cruiser in a large range and compliments the heavy kinetic damage most of my fleet is running.

Suggestions / Re: Add built-in hullmod that always enables zero-flux.
« on: February 06, 2024, 06:55:02 PM »
I just used a Fury for my flagship for most of the early game before moving on to the Ziggurat. Ran two ion pulsers, two antimatter blasters, and a Jackhammer with S-mod Ex. Mags. Ion shut down most ships and can burst down frigates very fast, and the antimatter blasters could break through armor, give a strong opening punch, or burst down wounded ships. Manueverability was high enough, and I had front shield conversion, that back pedaling was turning around and jetting away.
Overcommitting killed it a couple times, but I'm casual enough to save-scum over that.
Personally I think building in Escort Package would be a fun solution to AI mishandling, as the added range is really needed in capital-scale battles.

I think it can't find the module for the variant Domain Mothership used as a base, somehow? Wild.

Modding / Re: [0.96a] Epitaph Frost
« on: September 30, 2023, 09:22:09 PM »ngl I kinda liked it more when the vestige ships would occasionally pop up in remmie fleets. the system of their own makes sense but, even with the bar event, it's a little ... isolated.I can see why it'd be like that. Not sure how to give them more of a campaign presence. Maybe some Domain-Exploratorium Probe-like things you have to fight guarded by vestige or low / medium danger systems for them to spawn in.
If you want the vestige ships back you can go to EpitaphFrost\data\world\factions\remnants.faction and delete all the #s I put to comment the vestige out and that should probably get them to spawn in Remnant fleets.

As far as I can tell everything functions as it should. Changed some hull probabilities so factions don't get spammed with Seeker ship designs.
