I have encountered a bug with Archean Order stations. I wanted to supply a rebellion on Obsidian Crucible and after I sneaked in with transponder off the text says: "You might be able to establish contact dissident elements within the order if you come in later with the transponder turned off." I tried to access the black market anyway but there is not even an option to see markets, only the colony info.

One possibility is that you were spotted before with a transponder on by one of their patrols. In this case, the game will not consider you to be sneaky enough and they will still recognize you even with your transponder off. You can read the text description in the upper left corner whether this is the case.

Another possibility is that there's really some oversight on the AO part and we will have to wait for Morrokain.

Hey there! First of all thanks for making the mod. I was planning on playing it with nexerelin, however when I do the tutorial custom start I talk with the planet I get a nullpointer exception without crashing. It happens when it tries to add a ship and an officer to my fleet I think.  I am not sure what causes it or why but I thought i'd attach a file of what it gives me, so someone more experienced with mods might be able to help. I've also included my modlist, and without nexerelin the tutorial start isnt available. I like the storyline so I like playing with it tutorial and all Thanks in advance!

Since my attachment didnt work here is the error typed out: RuntimeException: attempting to add null fleet member to [player player fleet]
Could not find vigilance_Starting variant, getting random ship instead (it doesnt add anything to my fleet afterwards)
NullPointerException: Null
edit: the officer part is fixed, however the tutorial seems to not be completable since I cannot hand over the AI core to the station commander

Hi sorry for the delay I've been taking a break from modding for sanity purposes. I believe I did some special exceptions with a few markets to restrict access so that could be what you are running into, but I will look into it once I start modding again - which should hopefully be soontm.

Hello there! I am glad you like the story line I put in place. That was done forever ago and is very much incomplete so unfortunately at this time its not a good idea to use the tutorial with the mod. I disable it by default but Nex overrides the starting options so it is technically playable again but uncomplete-able. Apologies its definitely something I want to finish up at some point.

Been enjoying this mod a lot, I love the amount of weapons each ship has. I was wondering if there are any faction mods that work well with this mod or have been made with this mod in mind or even any recommended factions with stronger ships in general that can contend with the combat balance XD

thx :D

First I wanna say this mod has been really interesting to play, haven't experienced a whole lot just yet but so far combat has been feeling more tentative than what I was used to and I think I like it.

Second I've got a question regarding flux venting; there seems to be fewer options to improve one's ability to vent flux, is this intentional? because I remember combining things such as a skill and ship mod to vent flux really fast, but now it seems there isn't a skill that affects flux venting anymore.

Hello so I don’t know if this is supposed to happen but the adamantine consortium has a ludicrous amount of colony’s. They have captured just over 1/4 of the sector and it keeps getting worse and I am in no position to intervene. Is this a bug or are they just over powered right now?

There's no mod faction that officially supports AO right now.

The skill that increases maximum flux vent has been moved to the last tier yellow tech. There's also some phase ship hull mod like the Phase Anchor that double phase ship flux vent.

The latest experimental build has some changes to the AD faction ships but that only affects actual combat and not the auto resolve. Perhaps, they just got lucky and their foes are occupied with each other. Has to wait for Morrokain to confirm this.

Hi, I've been having a lot of fun with the mod, however it seems as though there's been some sort of problem with my save, haven't had this sort of problem with the base game so I'm assuming it has something to do with the mod, and was just wondering if there was any way to fix it. Here's the error message from the logs:

Would it be possible for me to know the code to reduce the number of ships in a fleet in this mod. I am using Nex and the early game is a little rough without going straight to the crusier start as most starting pirate fleets usually have up to 7 frigates that will run down anything short of a combat crusier. Since this is just personal preference I don't want to ask for a whole update for just one change.

@MegaMemeMan That doesn't look like a normal AO crash to me. Are you trying to start on a specific campaign? This mod campaign is unfinished. Also, some other mods that you install might conflict with this mod. In that case, Please refer to the front page.

It's not recommended to immediately start a fight with a starter fleet. You should join other fights first to accumulate your fleet some more or fish in troubled water. Grab all the broken ships and slap whatever garbage weapons you have onto every slot. Even an unarmed shuttle start can go this way.

I'm assuming, NEX should be the one that controls fleet spawn. This mod only contributes by lowering the deployment cost of all ships. Adjusting and rebalancing those would be more of a pain.

Playing this mod with the A New Level 40 mod, and I've found an issue:

When working down the Technology tech tree, I've been unable to choose Electronic Warfare because it requires 4 lower tier skills. But I have all five skills before it in the line, although I think the issue is with how the skills are "divided" in the tree, it seems to be a 3-3-2-2 divide, causing EW to only see 3 lower tier skills. Link to screenshot included below.

No idea if this is intended, but since you modified the civilian-hull Hullmod, anything that looks for it doesn't find it. That does include the extra storage, fuel and crew hullmods. That means no maintenance penalty for not having militarized subsystem.

Edit 1: I also noticed that you can't cancel Burn Drive in this unlike in Vanilla.

Edit 2: The Automated ship skill is borked when installing AI cores. The Beta and Alpha cores automatically have 2 vanilla skill that you can't have in AO (Combat Endurance and Field Modulation). You can't remove them and they stack with the AO version of the skill.
