Just wanted to pop in and say thank you for the hard work that's gone into this mod, and that Sylphon RnD is my favorite faction for having a nice lore response to the development of AI, having a hecking purple and black color scheme that looks badass, and wonderful ship designs.  Please keep up the wonderful work!

Granted that the faction goes to a different branch of technology, so modders who prefer maintaining technological continuity would look elsewhere.

Otherwise, they do offer uncrewed fighters and bombers, in addition to uncrewed ships if they have AI cores integrated.

You mean "mod-users", I would think and if you have nothing constructive to say, please just ignore the mod. Thank you kindly.

Mind you, I've been meaning to rework the lore to better fit them into the "technological continuity", but certainly not to please you.

Seconded, I took them out for a playthrough once but I discovered I missed their position in the system and how they interact on the campaign map, and also some of the ships are really fun to fight with or against. And more AI stuff is cool too.

Hi there! The above comment [Edit: Since cleanup the post has been removed] is not productive. Please refrain from using ad-hominems and other toxic behavior.

Cleaned up the thread a bit to keep it on track.

@Eidam: consider this an official warning.

@Nia: I'd appreciate it if you could ignore (or report, if you feel it's warranted) a post you don't care for instead of escalating.

Sorry if this has been asked before/answered before Nia, But in the "Skins" folder there's a skin for an "Andromeda" Battleship, is that an unused asset or something for a Vayra/other HVB Type thing?

Been playing with SRD For ages now and i've never seen it, and i have an unhealthy obsession with collecting battleship-style ships...

The Andromeda will be an HVB at some point, but it's currently in development limbo till I can figure out some quirks with the implementation.

Just a minor thing I noticed in the campign: the market of Tallos (in Nym) has not planetrary conditions besids farmland. No Habitable, no organics.

How do you actually use the nullspace conduits? Specifically the modular ones. I tried applying the modular nullspace conduits to a ship, but while there's a sort of purple aura around it, i'm not really sure if that means the conduits are ON or just that i HAVE them.

Nullspace Conduits is an always-on effect; you can watch as you fly in a straight line as your speed slowly ticks up to being just a bit faster than the top speed you started at.

It's usually not worthwhile to get the modular nullspace conduits on their own (though some fast ships can get good use out of even a conditional percentage speed boost); instead, most of the value is in the upgrade hullmods that are unlocked.

Wyvern is 100% correct about the math.
