Alright so every single fighter i launch from a carrier that has wingcom immediatly has a critical malfuntion and sometimes just straight up explodes. I have no idea why thats happening :/

Some interference with Modern Carriers? I know Modern Carriers has that functionality as a failsafe under certain circumstances.

Forget what i said its because it was a ED carrier which cant use manned fighters.....im stupid

sir,may i ask for your permission to translate your mod into Chinese and upload it to a Chinese Starsector forum?
here's it's address:https://www.fossic.org/
I would really appreciate it if you could agree.

This is just a bug report of stuff I noticed in 2.05

-Various things are missing descriptions, the ones I noticed specifically are (by id):
(weapons)
armaa_altagrave_syrinx
armaa_altagrave_blade
armaa_kouto_torso_frig
armaa_einhander_plus_head
armaa_leynos_minigun_right (despite the id this is actually an aleste weapon)
There's also various fightercraft (LPC only) weapons that are missing descriptions, but personally I'm not the type to mind those.

(hullmods)
armaa_variableRifle (this might be intended, still gonna list it)
armaa_selector_gauss
armaa_selector_hellbore

armaa_flare_decoy (system) seems to have been copied improperly, the text repeats twice and lists ",Defensive,"

The watchdog has a typo in its tags, armaa_mobilearmo (missing "r").
The watchdog's weapon switching isn't functioning properly, it only swaps guns when both hullmods are missing. You cannot use both hellbores or guass unless stripping the hull until desired results. Most likely stems from having both switchers (LEFTSWITCH,RIGHTSWITCH) look for the same hullmods, unlike other craft where left/right gun hullmods are distinct.
Since I've listed the watchdog twice now, I don't like the AI's use of the system, it cannot properly chase ships since it leaves the system on even when the enemy is backing off.

Valkazard counter shield body incorrectly states shield arc is decreased by 0%.

Leynos right arm crusher hullmod sorts differently than the other switcher hullmods, it always favors the bottom of the list (of installed hullmods) instead of the top as the others do.

Wingcom suite has an extra percent symbol under the details tab ("skills over time%").

Now a bit of balance feedback, the Leynos left arm railgun is terrible. Compared to a standard railgun all it has is non-arcing EMP (worth very little) and worse DPS, and yet it costs more than double the flux per damage (efficiency 2.25 vs 0.9)

Finally a question, since the baseline altagrave has a "laser sword" in its left arm slot, are the (C) and (G) variants supposed to have nothing there? The (G) variant especially, since it alone has a movement system allowing for easier use of a melee weapon.

Hi, thanks, im going through this now.

Is this potentially AA related?

Happens right when I blow up the last enemy ship

This used to occur with AA, but not in the context you mentioned. What ship was it that you destroyed when this happened?

hello, I just got your mod today and am getting this crash when hitting "manage" on a squad leader. I tried it twice, and same result. I thought I'd let you know. thanks! so far it's really fun

Hi you are free to translate it, however the person quoted below asked me for permission previously, so it might be a good idea to check with them so you don't end up doing extra work for nothing 

hello,can I get your permission to translate this to Chinese ? dude. And i will upload this mod to a forum in china (everthing is free). I just wish more people can play this great mod. thank u really.

edit: WOW. figured it out. I didn't have the hullmod installed. herp
thanks again o7

[Mr_8000]

What's the logic behind wingcom's rep and leveling? Sometimes I get a decent rep boost post-combat, for seemingly an easy, small engagement. Other times the fight grants be upwards of 200k xp and the rep doesn't change on any pilot, despite this being the harder battle (neither combat caused the ship to be disabled).
 
As for the levels/elite skills I'm assuming it's a roll post combat at a certain rep level? Since they don't seem to correlate directly to rep.

Never mind, I missed that bit under the info tab. Instead I'd like to recommend that the random gain should at least be non-zero, it feels pretty bad to not make any progress for potentially several combats in a row.

Edit: There might be something else at play here, since after having 5 combats with no change I restarted the game and gains were possible again. Afterwards I repeated this experiment, when I seemed to stop gaining any rep restarting once again fixed it.

While looking at this more closely I've also noticed that elite skills don't display properly in the management UI, they all seem to be elite (I'm assuming that's what the "+" means, if I'm wrong then ignore this), after promoting however it appears to just be a display issue.

Was this on a new game?
The elite indicator is indeed bugged - for some reason checking skill with isElite seems to always return as true, even if it isn't, ill look into that more.

Also RE: The Altagrave [C] and Altagrave[G] and laser swords, G was basically soft removed since the weapons can be swapped now. I could make a melee-specific alta with a system more practical to that playstyle, but it'd probably involve rerigging the ship since it's animation is a bit more limited due to how its set up compared to the fighter-sized mechs.

Anyhow, i should have an update out this weekend hopefully that deals with most of your other feedback + some bugs

[Mr_8000]

No it isn't, this save was started just after v2.00 released. If that could potentially be the issue then I'll just live with it until I start a fresh one.

Edit: As for the elite skills, isElite seems to check whether or not the skill can be elite, not whether or not it is elite. Seems to be defined in the .skill file ""elite":true,". You might be better off checking with getLevel, since elite skills return level 2 instead of 1.

[Sunnyko]

Would be kind of nice if we could.... say assign AI cores to the wingcom of automated wings.

[Pep]

Good to hear! Thanks for translating!

I don't mind but you probably should run it past DA mod author, I don't know what their stance would be

Known bug:
Hyperstorm damage reduction for strikecraft on campaign layer applies in combat as well for corona PPT reduction

[Skip]

Thank you for this great mod.

Im trying to use WINGCOM with the Battelstar from ScalarTech Solutions. Its a multi-module Ship with fighter bays on each part, but it doesnt seem to work. WINGCOM thinks that there is not officer assigned, except for the main part. Any chance that this gets fixed?

[SpaceDrake]

I wouldn't be surprised if WINGCOM isn't rigged up to work with modular carriers just yet. Remember that modular ships are only "sort of" supported by Starsector as it stands; some weirdness is to be expected. It's probably not detecting that the "ship" (e.g. the module) has an officer. And the question is, how hard will it be to get that to work?

Anyway, thanks for the update, Shoi (the bug I reported got fixed!)

also Pep I am vibrating in my seat here, pls gib mini-mod

[0202]

hello dude. I find some bugs,some of the ship, such as "valkazard""aleste" ,they can't land on other ships normally,maybe because they didn't build in "landingBeacon" , I don't know,according to  description about "strikeCraft", "valkazard" or "aleste" should be able to land and resupply on other ships normally.

TBD on this, iirc there was some issues with modules and detecting them on refit screen. I know its possible, i just need to ask a friend for more info

Docking is enabled once they run out of ammo or take enough damage, and then activating autopilot. To dock manually, you have to target a carrier and activate autopilot.
