You know, i'm wondering if these builder turrets were made just for this gif, or if they'll be actual "weapons" for the next update.

In this specific case.... They are old State sprites bashed with other parts. ^^

This change makes my pants glow with an awesome power.

Don't take it wrong but this might be the most important change here :3

Good to see something for the poor Calm, hopefully it'll be enough.

P.S. With the removal of downsides for the HEF on vanilla 0.7.2, what are you thinking of doing (if anything) for the flux redirector?

I can asure you, the most important changes here are the two new ships! They both are great additions: one for early game, the other during late game.

Oh I'm excited about the ships, but making IBIS/RAPTOR competent will make all ships better :D

Also, you & FF are terrible teases and didn't say nothing about the frigate.

PICS OR IT DIDNT HAPPEN.

Really like how the Rime looks. Wonder how a combat version would fly.

Re: [0.7.1a] Diable Avionics 1.6 - Transforming Frigate (20/02/2016)
« Reply #179 on: February 20, 2016, 08:40:01 AM »



Now featuring two advanced transforming ships:

   

Take a peek thanks to the ever awesome NemoNaemo

https://youtu.be/jaov8Wh98Sc

Go to the 16 minute mark to see them in action!




Require LazyWizard's LazyLib
Compatible with LazyWizard's Version Checker.
Compatible with Histidine's Nexerelin.
Integrated to Dark.Revenant's Starsector +.


In addition to the Versant, you will encounter the Rime Blockade Runner, a cruiser sized freighter able to punch though the enemy's lines should it need to escape. Weapon wise there is now the Trifire medium scatter gun, a single barreled Hexafire. The valiant transformation has also been significantly improved, as well as its AI, and as usual a lot of small changes and tweaks.

This update should not break any save.
