Starsector 0.97a is out! (02/02/24); New blog post: Save/Load UI, Autosave, Intel Map Markers, and More (04/10/24)
new thicc af update! as always its a save breaker, if anythings wrong hmu.
Might we in the future see custom-made stations specifically from this mod?
Was working on something... not really related, but thought of something: the Shared Flux Sink hullmod on the station body assumes there's only one station deployed in battle, and will adjust flux dissipation rates oddly if there are multiple. So you probably want to either remove it or provide a modified version, if you aren't already!
Evening Alluvian I think you are uh... Overestimating the user base, most normal players are not going to be setup to run Python scripts and even if all were that is janky to say the least. And those that are setup to run scripts like that, could just as easily go into the files and make all the required changes in barely anymore time required. Also, modifying other mods unless their license allows for this? Is generally frowned upon. This is of course doesn't apply to personal mods made by end users that they keep to themselves. But distributing mod mods is not that at all, even if it requires a script to do it which again is really funky!
I'm looking for a way to make an industry require two industry slots.
My hackjob solution is to make it unavailible if there are less than two open, and auto-place an secondary industry on build, wich causes issues I would rather not have to account for since it can be removed...
is there a better way?
Thanks
I'm gonna stop you right here!
It's not a good idea to clutter the colony menu with more things to build, as per your suggestion, it would take 2 slots to get a blue planetary shield, that's complete madness.
I was wondering if a total random universe was possible?
I know Nex adds random core worlds, but would something like the below be possible?
Have the entire map be random in terms of placing starting inhabitant worlds, with a faction grouped together in the same constellation.
So when you meet other factions, it's almost like discovering a new species out there. Would make exploration interesting/rewarding.
I'm assuming there is something in the game mechanics that prevent this?
I want to say it clear: it is an interesting idea, but I will never use this mod, as it is not fit in a game I want to play.
That was posted only because "DAKKA" is very orcish thing.I respect orcs.[close]
P.S. If you really want "MORE DAKKA" try to create ram-attack variant with ridiculously hight armor, minor firepower and no fighters or shield at all. Make it red, cos red=fast.
protected void buildingFinished() {
super.buildingFinished();
this.market.removeIndustry("PLANETARYSHIELD", (MarketAPI.MarketInteractionMode)null, false);
}
"industry":{
"shield_texture_pink":"graphics/planets/planetary_shield_pink.png",
"shield_texture_blue":"graphics/planets/planetary_shield_blue.png",
}
public class PlanetaryShield_Blue extends BaseIndustry {
[stuff]
# changes go here, otherwise would be the same as class PlanetaryShield
public static void applyVisuals(PlanetAPI planet) {
if (planet != null) {
planet.getSpec().setShieldTexture(Global.getSettings().getSpriteName("industry", "shield_texture_blue")); # blue version
planet.getSpec().setShieldThickness(0.1F);
planet.getSpec().setShieldColor(new Color(255, 255, 255, 175));
planet.applySpecChanges();
}
}
You should call this one "The Hornet's Nest"
