I've been using the mod for some time now. Ships are cool and usefull without being over powered (please do not change the kestrel anymore, it is perfect as it is now). Weapons range from awfull to must have. The new station is perfect and my go to when I can.

All in all, good mod. Now just need to add some more portraits ^^

I do find it a bit weird that faction weapons are rather rare in their own markets... might be just my game though, I do have a lot of mods.

Yo! Loving this mod and it's content. I have noticed something however. When using version checker it states The Star Federation has an update. Apparently there's a version v9.8-RC5. Doesn't seem like so with the latest version being v9.8-RC3. Just gotta mention this.

Glad to see that I'm not going crazy lol. A lot of effort is put into it. With the amount of work that's pumped into mods like these, its pretty amazing to hear that its based off of FTL. Not too surprising for long time fans considering how dedicated their cult fanbase is, I mean look at the reviews.

Recommended with 70 hrs of gameplay.

Sounds great and no, I'm not being sarcastic.

Thank you for the kind words, all!

Be glad you didn't download 0.95 from the Unofficial Starsector Discord - it had a rather silly bug in Nexerelin Random Mode that respawned the derelicts every time.

Anyways, micro update time to fix that... with some stuff I wanted to release as part of a big Weapons update. Also tournament rebalancing - I tried to make ship stats generally higher so they're useful outside of player hands. (Yes, this means buffs, lawhd forbid. )

Hi,

I love this mod but am running into a weird issue where all derelict ships are spawning as Star Fed ships. Is there any reason that might have happened? It could be a mod conflict and I will do some more testing if there is not an easy fix.

Thanks!

Hello, the patch above *should* stop it from spawning more derelicts. The version that placed derelicts was 0.98-RC5, which was only available on the Unofficial Starsector Discord, and only had that issue when you used Nexerelin's Random Mode. Did you grab the update yet?

[SirRamekin]

I did not. Thanks for that info!

Yep but you can download the current version by copying the link, manually pasting it in your address bar and changing the 3 to a 6.

If you can't wait for it to be fixed.

This is absolutely my favorite content mod in starsector! I adore FTL and its awesome seeing all the cool designs of ships in a different medium. I believe you mentioned you took some ships from mods. Have you played and/or considered using ships/weapons from FTL Multiverse? I have like 700 hours in ftl and Multiverse is like playing a whole new game. They recently made it 100x simpler to install as well, simply needing to run an exe!

pretty cool
