Would anyone know if there is a quick way to make Seeker 5.1 compatible with Magiclib 45.2? Or is this the kind of thing that takes a lot of knowhow? XD

Would anyone know if there is a quick way to make Seeker 5.1 compatible with Magiclib 45.2? Or is this the kind of thing that takes a lot of knowhow? XD

1. Open up the mod_info.json file (in the \mods\SEEKER_UC folder) in Notepad++ or equivalent.

2. Find the section that reads as:

            "id": "MagicLib",
            "name": "MagicLib",
            "version": "0.42"

3. Insert a '#' in front of that last line, so it is now:
             #"version": "0.42"

4. Save and then re-load the Starsector executable.

Game should no longer auto-disable the mod upon load, but you'd need to manually re-enable it first.

It works! Thank you very much! \o/

Hi Tartiflette,

Two things:
First the update to Magiclib has the same issue as last update where the version numbers in mod_info do not match which I was able to "fix" on my end.
Second now I get an failed calling method error when I try to load my save that SKR_kaleidoscope is not found. My guess is Magiclib changed some calling method and Seeker is two version of ML out of date and is not caught up.

Figured you would be better able to diagnose

[Killsode]

i know this is unlikely to get an update, but man does the halligan just not have enough flux dissipation. even maxed out with 35 vents and FD, it cant support even a 150f/s medium in each slot, let alone anything higher and PD.

[Tartiflette]

This update technically does not provide much anything in term of new content but represents a major polish pass, notably on the end-game bosses. It should provide a much smoother experience, better rewards as well as a new ways to deal with those challenging opponents.

To whomever it may interest:
As it has become pretty obvious, this past year I for the most part moved on from modding this game. While it may be disappointing to hear I cannot promise to ever returning to the debit of frequent updates I once held. I however do not want to let this mod die. Thus in the case I have yet to show up 3 months after the next major game release, anyone is free to update Seeker and/or change it however they want.

In the meantime, Seeker's code can freely be re-used by anyone and the sprites can freely be kitbashed from without asking with 3 conditions: It must be for a Starsector mod, that mod must have a similarly permissive license, and I am credited.

Hey, so I recently encountered one of the bosses (Ravager) and when I get into combat with it, it never appears. Any idea what's up with that?

[EDIT]
Update! I ran into the Safeguard boss and after beating it and claiming the loot, the game crashed to desktop with this error:

The patch notes said the quarantined flight decks mod has been removed, but I am still seeing it drop after the update?

[Tartiflette]

"Hot"-fix is up!

[RC2]
 - Fixed crash related to the bosses' loot generation,
 - Fixed issue with Rampage not deploying,
 - Fixed issues related to the bosses' spawn locations,
 - Fixed issue with Plague-bearer wings not launching,
 - Fixed the Reality Drill script not being applied.

[snicka]

Okay, how in the flying duck are you even supposed to attempt the cataclysm with normal battle size without any kind of extreme modded cheese ships?

Ever since it stopped teleporting in between ships, and started popping somehow to the side, i feel as if the firepower combined with mobility as absolutely absurd, higher than even the literall cancer fleet capital.

What is the intended strategy here?

[Tartiflette]

It's not meant to be beaten in a single fight, let alone without massive losses. It repairs extremely slowly so you can attempt to fight it multiple times.

[bob888w]

Bit of a shame vanilla starsector doesn't allow ship recoveries with clean disengages, really disencentivzes players from taking on the same battle multiple times without save scumming. Especially hurts when you have unique modded ships in your fleet

[Tartiflette]

This update provides more fixes and improvements to the bosses. I tried to solve some odd deploying behaviors, added the missing limited descriptions when encountering them, repaired the bounties not showing up at all, as well as implementing a balance pass for their minions. I also added three new custom Nexerelin starts that hopefully will open new interesting opportunities for role-play and offer unique challenges. These are Mulligan!, Break-up Hanghover and A Knight's Tale.

Hopefully this mod will now be in a good-enough spot so that I can move my attention onto my others ones in dire need for an update!

Bug report with boss spoilers:

Spoiler

I'm stuck with an absolutely unkillable Cataclysm. It has no health and no modules but won't die no matter I do. I tried "nuke" and "endcombat" console commands to no avail either. I had a similar issue with Safeguard but after it retreated once it died instantly upon being deployed again but unfortunately this isn't working with Cataclysm. I had no issue with Nova or Rampage. Is there anything I can do here? Thanks.

[close]

[Tartiflette]

Yes this bug has been reported a few times. I have not a single hint of a clue why it is happening, and why it only seems to affect Cataclysm when the other bosses are mechanically identical. I don't know if it is some weird mod interaction of some odd convergence of issues.

If you see the ship having a big hole in its armor display as it jumps in, just reload the battle, there's no killing that ship.
