Small update. I'm too lazy to post the link twice, so you can grab it on the front page.
Quote
-Added landing beacon to Einhander
-Fixed alternating weapon bug with Garegga's Pulse laser
- Aleste:
   -Laser Blade:
      -Laser Blade attacks are now swings instead of stabs; should generally be easier to connect with
      -First strike with Laser Blade now slightly knocks back the user
      -Added Hit and swing fx
      - Burst Damage is dealt on first strike

V1.4.8RC2
--------------
- Stopped recordbreaker from always being in the title screen battles
- Added more details on what fighter-related skills apply to Strikecraft to Strikecraft hmod desc
- Strikecraft will no longer kill themselves if the carrier they are on retreats
   - will retreat as well
- Fixed crash caused by Strikecraft retreating while on carrier

- Refit rate should be properly clamped and no longer go below 30%
- Max Refit Time Penalty (w/ missiles equipped) 30%->35%
- Refitting at carrier now reduces that carriers replacement rate
- Reversed LPC removal from indies/persean/pirates
- Adjusted CR bar color to match native UI
- Added combat UI notification on CR loss for strikecraft when CR <= 40%
- adjusted starship legends hull damage impact on rating for aleste & einhander to account for repairs to hull
-added minor turret angle offsets to all weapons - should improve accuracy esp. against smaller objects like fighters and missiles

-Einhänder:
-DP: 8->11
-Phase Cost & Upkeep: 0.08->0.1
-Phase Damper Cooldown: 2->3
-Cr/Deployment ->40%
-Fixed bug where permanent time dilation would be applied when player-piloted einhander was destroyed in certain scenarios

-Garegga:
-DP: 8->9

-Garegga(TT):
-Added glow sprite to pulse lasers
-System: Plasma Jets -> Silversword
-Fixed incorrect turret arcs

-Aleste:
-Added glow sprite to Rynex Pulse Rifle
-DP: 5->6
-Ground Support Bonus: 25->15
-Stake Driver:
-Burst Size: 2->6
-Ammo: I forgot->18
-Stake Driver proj is now bit more visually prominent
-Minor fx/sfx tweaks to Laser Blade

snip
This update should fix your issue..or well I think it should , sinc I couldn't replicat, but I recall running into it beforehand. Limited ammo Aleste's should return to carrier as soon as they run out of all ammo, tho, but otherwise they should not. I think there was an issue with the landing override still being used by AI

Re: Melee weapons
I'll probably try to make it so I can rig two laser swords being used at once without breaking every animation first, then save extra stuff for other new mechs. The spear idea, for example, should be pretty easy to achieve. I also thought about some kind of Rocket Punch thing, though I suppose that's not really a melee weapon

Just gave it a test, and whatever you changed seems to have fixed it. My Aleste's are behaving normally now, with no change to their officers or fittings. Radical. ^.^

New sword animation is rad as heck, too!

Just started using this mod, pretty great so far and I haven't run into any significant problems yet.

I did notice an insignificant problem, however, which is that the ship systems don't utilize ship system range modifications (such as from the Systems Expertise skill).

Probably because the mod I guess only considers the pilotable mechs as frigates/ships in the campaign layer, but considers them fighters in the battle mode.  Thus, mod doesn't apply such bonuses (though whether this is intentional by Shoi or a bug, I couldn't say).

The fighter-frigs and altagrave definitely benefit from systems expertise, so I can only guess as to what Kenshkrix is talking about. Probably SILVERSWORD, which I don't think would fit in any of the categories to benefit from sys expertise without me adding some code to it

The KARMA system is unaffected by modified ship system range, to be more specific.
I noticed because I was testing extreme modifiers to the MutableShipStats to figure out what they do.
Most of the ship systems in the game (and mods) don't have an appreciable 'range' component, so the ones that do were more obvious during that part of the testing, it's not exactly important but I just figured I'd mention it anyways.

AH! I see. I was under the impression the skill was an if-else kind of deal.

how I 'checked' was just seeing if charges increased for altagrave and the other ships, which they did; but I never thought to check anything else.Sounds like this is wrong, though? I'll go and get that fixed, then.

hmmmm, what could be wrong here?

found this funny little guy after updating and looting a research station. doesnt cause any crashes and i just found this amusing. I dont think i have any mods that would cause this so its probably worth checking.

IF you want some inpiration for mech design, might I suggest Hardcore Mecha on Steam ?
sidescrolling mech game that plays kinda like metal slug

Comes with a tech tree for its mechs in the simulation mode

.......not saying I dont absolutely love the balancing and new animations, but I think in the future you should use the old version of the sword for a *veryspecial pilotable something because ALTHOUGH SUPER OVERPOWERED it was really a ton of fun to use.

Aside from that, I REALLY like the changes and the valken x is magnificent!  ......now to go buy a new microphone

edit: edit: maybe were just falling with style LOL.  make a bubble, make the space in front of it smaller and just fall forward

Loving the new Aleste! It almost got everything I ever wanted for a pilotable mech! Various armaments, beam sabers, and new and improved Docking AI. Very nice. Do you mind if I steal some of the improvements you made for the Docking AI?

Well, I hope you put it on something in the future, because I was playing around with it and it's rad.

Wouldn't be possible without you! By all means, go ahead.

Thanks! The old version will return at some point, although it probably won't be as a sword.
