Mods / Re: [0.9.1a] Sylphon RnD 1.0

Crash on gamestart, turning Sylphon off solves. Seems like its finally too far gone for just a version string change. A shame, I really liked some of the weapon systems. Hopefully someone adopts it.

« on: September 02, 2023, 02:46:50 PM »No clue, you might be able to go in and edit the option in a text file in Ind.evo?You probably need to switch from using the whitelist to using the blacklist in the Luna settings, mod author most likely just hasn't bothered to get their stuff put onto the whitelist.
If you're already using the blacklist, then the answer is yes, they really don't want you reverse engineering.
I'm actually not using LunaLib as I haven't used a mod that required it yet. Can the whitelist be activated very easily without LunaLib?

I've had a lot of luck giving my pocket gust flagship two different models of the diable weapons with limited magazines, I forget the names off the top of my head. That way the ai can burst through shields and armor to put them on the backfoot while I pound them with the wanzer. At least in smaller fights, I don't stay in it for terribly long. Once you're out of the early game its still a good escort for bigger ships.

With a lot of Diable you shouldn't really build it like a 'standard' ship, you really have to lean in to their strengths, which are their wanzers and fighters, large missile salvos, strike ships with a lot of forward facing damage but not much staying power, and agile capital ships. Missiles that spam lots of small projectiles to pressure and distract PD are key to their doctrine and why a lot of them have built in micro missiles.
If your wanzers and fighters get mulched in the first pass, you're gonna have a bad time. They can struggle a lot against some modded ships which just have overwhelmingly good point defense or the firepower and mobility to just ignore your small craft and overwhelm you. There was one battlecruiser from the ship/weapon pack that Diable fleets just could not deal with in my game, for example.
None of this is to say they're weak, you just have to be very particular about your builds and fleet composition and maybe take a little more care with fleet orders in battle. And perhaps be wary of installing mods with super powerful ships and/or factions if you want to do a Diable playthrough where you're not getting bullied in pitched fights.

I wouldn't necessarily get rid of it entirely on other factions, since an occasional SO ship could be an interesting wrench in a fight, perhaps just limit it to reckless commanders or aggressive ones flying low-tech ships...

If it's possible, maybe give them in-house bioweapon missiles that do negligible damage, but lower the enemy's CR if they impact armor or hull. Don't think I've ever seen a weapon that does that, makes sense in their lore, and might give their agile but fragile ships a better chance if the enemy's accuracy goes down and they start running into malfunctions. You'd have to balance the ammo and effect so they're not too strong though and find a way to make them not work against automated ships.

The regular derelicts DO have the reinforced hull mod built-in or at least did last time I played, so they're slightly better than ones you just bought or salvaged from a battle. Is that worth the cost of restoration? Ehhh, maybe if you're doing a society ship-only run? Although there comes a point when cash is no longer a concern, especially if you have industrial evolution or whichever mod adds the restoration dock building.

Yeah, you just need something to make it be loaded after the main mod so its art assets overwrite the originals.

Well, the actual Rosenritter mechs are the destroyers, the smaller stuff is mostly meant to be support.

Really the only ship I had a problem with was...crap, what was the name...the Kobold? Whatever the wing-shaped frigate is. They just always died because they're so slow for a frigate and their defenses are just not up to snuff for the speed bracket they're in. A solid core of the heavy cruisers and destroyers backed up by some of the schturm ships seemed to do fine in most fights. Although that may have been because I was continually disrupting and breaking up the enemy with my Apolloyion. I did notice that I basically needed to accept I was going to lose a ship every few fights, although once it's updated for .95 it might not have that problem since you can just build in Reinforced Hull to the more fragile ships and have the skill to passively fix d-mods.
Perhaps they need a heavy defensive "dreadnaught" capital to anchor bigger AI fleets that don't have the player there?

« on: April 01, 2021, 03:01:06 PM »Hey, Is it possible to have 2 of the skinpacks active at once? like each diable ship can roll either A or B skin? I assume not, but not sure if there is a workaround to have the same effect. Also, very nice work, I really love this mod, very fun visuals, and even when not piloting diable ships, I really enjoy seeing them in my games.
I think ship sprites mostly just sit in the mod gfx folder individually, so you could just download and unpack both skin mods and then pick and choose ship skins from each and overwrite the files in the mod's gfx folder. The complex ships have their own folders with all the ship pieces, so for them you'll need to copy and overwrite the whole folder. I have never done this myself so I make no guarantee it'll work correctly, but there's a decent chance.

Field Repairs doesn't clear the (D) tag from a ship's class line after clearing the last D-mod. Very minor bug.

I'd say definitely stick it in storage until you want to conquer some planets. I imagine it'd come in handy for cracking star fortresses and supporting ground invasions, maybe some of the big unique bounties from some mods. Probably not something to drag around for exploration or regular bounty hunting though unless you really want to.
