Reverse engineering and the printing chain are entirely seperate from each other. You can not use printed ships for reverse engineering in any way.

i meant by reverse engineering the hull forge line, with reverse engineering being the hull deconstructor or hull forge, or whatever the thing is called

I see! To answer the question, then - since printed ships can't be deconstructed again, the limit for total S-Mods is 6 - 3 from vanilla, 3 from the Forge - any additional mods notwithstanding.

I've been playing for nearly a week and I exclusively use alpha cores

Also get *** rid of that second line it holds no water

Alpha cores in this mod are not necessarily better than betas or gammas, depending on the situation. The effects usually are mutually exclusive as well, so it's a rather useless request, which is why I was asking you to engage with them so you could figure that out before making a fool of yourself.

As for the second line - changing AI core effects means adjusting all code in the relevant classes, though you would have known that, had you any capability to achieve it in the first place. Since the mod is around 30k loc and the core effects are hardcoded and decentralized in most cases, I wish you the best of luck.

How are you this bad at counting

Weakest attempt I've seen all year, but it did make me laugh, so good on you.

What file do I edit and where in the file is the line to give the alpha core the proper bonuses, because I think I read a tooltip that said gamma and beta cores give bonuses that the alpha core doesn't, which is absolute horse-***

This kind of behavior towards other forum members will not be tolerated. Please familiarize yourself with the forum rules, and please consider this an official warning.

Rumors say that whenever one of these angry yahoos finds their way to this thread, the eyebrows of the dog in SirHartley's pic angle inwards by 1 degree.

ahh, i see. well, that is  balanced, i guess, heh. so i cannot have infinite ships by just deconstructing one ship, nor reverse engineer more ships with the actual reverse engineering hub either. well, thanks for explaining sir!

i guess no ziggurats for all my patrolls

A slight annoyance when using the salvage yards:
The maximum order value appears to be capped at the lower of the actual maximum and your budget.
I have sufficient parts such that I could produce the hull in question with the 50% discount, but I can't select to reduce the cost using parts until I select a hull, and I can't select the hull because I can't afford it at full price.

I really wish we could either use the forge to make reverse engineering of somewhat rare craft more feasible (it's pretty much impossible unless you run into LOTS of that particular ship) or at least reverse engineer weapons. As it is I don't think I've ever produced a BP via reverse engineering.

Though now I'm wondering, I guess you can't reverse engineer automated ships just because you can stick them into a disassembler, right?

Bwah? It only takes three capital ships to produce a BP, and iirc something like 9 frigates.

it also only takes 3 capital ships to fill all the DP you have per battle, if you have an overwhelming amount of ships. you might not even be able to deploy 3 of a capital class ship if you are equal or outnumbered

That's a lot to me, basically limits it to ships of a faction you fight regularly.
