Thanks for the nice words Szasz and Chairman.

I started this mod with a dream of making boats in space, but yeah, you're right, they look boring. I'll address this issue as soon as I get some free time and creativity influx. But anyway, here we go guys, updated to the new patch and also made a long needed clean up on the mod files. There's also a papa spee that I'm still trying to make it fun and relevant in comparison with other BBs.

Getting a crash on game load / new game with this mod: "Fatal: Weapon spec [singlnir] not found!"

But... only when a bunch of other mods are loaded as well, not when only using this mod on its own. Currently running a few dozen, and from a bit of testing couldn't find an obvious one thus far it doesn't play well with.

[lgustavomp]

 Sorry. It is fixed now

[Flunky]

No worries, and thanks for the quick fix.

Very cool mod. I love the design. Especially of the long tom kinetic driver!

[Flunky]

After a bit of playing with the large weapons, feel I need to ask: are they intended to have a much better turn rate than similar large weapons? E.g. most of the Long Tom's competitors are far more sluggish on the turn, which gives the Long Tom a bit of an edge on top of its other characteristics like accuracy.

Yes I thought it was a bug when I watch the combat. The Long Tom Kinetic Driver has a better turn rate (Very fast) than some of my PD weapons.

[lgustavomp]

I really forgot to slow down that turn rate. Will fix that in the next patch. But they're meant to be fast (like hephaestus) anyway, because I want them to be effective on broadsiders. As you know, the AI tends to dance too much to mitigate hull damage.

Oh man I'm really enjoying this mod a ton!  The big guns are fantastic and so are the smaller squalls!  I will admit though I ended up adjusting the Tirpitz a fair bit.  It's an awesome ship with a great turret layout.  But as it is normally I just couldn't get it to really work.  The minestrike does seem rather out of place from playing with it some.

I ended up boosting the speed, armor and shield efficiency a bit.  Just up to 1.2 to make it on the low end of low tech shields.  Instead of the extremely horrid 1.6 that it has right now.  And I ended up swapping the mine strike for a mobility ability which felt much more appropriate for the style of ship.

But man!  This is my new favorite mod!  The big guns are awesome and the hull for the Tirpitz is great   Just felt I had to adjust it some to make it a bit more fun in my view

I gave her that terrible shield eff because she used to have ammo feeder. But as the spee already has the same system, I tried something different and still "fun" to play with. You're not the only one unhappy with the mines, I'll iterate more on her system.
btw: her shield is garbage, but the flux stats are pretty insane overall, it's almost paragon level. My idea was not to make another tank (there's a onslaught already to fill that hole) but a sort of long range harasser, that would use her massive offence as defense. It still subjected to change thou, depending on the community response.

Thanks for the feedback and I'm glad you're liking it.

[captinjoehenry]

Yeah I really enjoy that!  Totally love the idea   It's exactly how I've been playing it.  Even with all the perks and everything the 1.2 shield still is only really a temporary thing.  It dies really fast to kinetics and sustained pressure. 

So I adjusted it to be decently fast and maneuverable so it's thing is keeping the enemy at range and peppering them long range fire.  And frankly it's a ton of fun   It just needed a little more base speed and a mobility ability and it works out great and a ton of fun   And even with the buff to it's armor I gave it if you mess up and let enemies get on top of you you die really really fast.

Admittedly I've probably made it's mobility a bit too op but it's so much fun XD  And I mean I do like op stuff for my own use   But frankly having the opness be mobility and kiting is FAR FAR more interesting and fun compared to my usual flavor of just face tank everyone and kill them with ease.

Hello, my game crashed while using this mod, and the log seems to point to a problem with an ARSWP script:

Code

I'm still on 0.91, and tried out this mod because I was under the impression that it'd work on 0.91 as well ("If you're still using 0.91, this patch will break your save"). Is this not the case?

[Value86]

Great mod so far!

Longtom needs a massive nerf. It has huge range, decent rof, effective against shields, armour and hull and it has an emp effect. Its also not expensive in terms of OP. It's basically an anti-everything gun. Needs drawbacks.

Huh is it really that strong? I've been using 4 of the HEs on the tirpitz, gonna swap them out for the long toms and see how they work out
