[0.97a] RotcesRats v0.3.3
« on: February 09, 2021, 03:00:26 PM »


Adds a selection of unusual vessels and weapons.

Requires:
LazyLib
MagicLib

Frigates

Aeith - Glass cannon gunship.
Ox MK.II - Imagine a Buffalo MK.II, but only frigate sized. About as threatening as you'd imagine.
Nemo - An Omen, but rather than an EMP emitter has a focus on fleet support.
Concierge - Lightweight PD oriented Frigate.
Concierge (P) - Pirate conversion that does away with fancy systems for missile spam.
Pilaster - Sort of like a monitor that can fire while its shield is up.
Tamerlane - Aggressive assault frigate.
Shkiper - A highly durable combat rated drone tender.
Dram Mk.= - Pirate engineering gone mad, although it actually has a somewhat potent missile system.
Hooligan - An engine with guns and armour bolted on, cheap and highly aggressive.
Vexilla - Reversed Centurion, but altered to mount a lot of missiles.
Lout - "Perfect" for the down on their luck captain on a budget!
[close]

Destroyers

Buffalo Mk.= - Cursed.
Rednus - Backwards Sunder, loses the large mount, but has effective options.
Susrat - Combat freighter / Carrier hybrid.
Susrat-S - As above, but also offers salvage bonuses.
Falconet L - Pirate hackjob, with a ballistic turret.
Falconet R - Pirate hackjob, with an energy turret.
Surebrec - Cheap destroyer.
Surebrec MK.II - It has a Large missile hardpoint, what more needs to be said.
Inimeg - Combat freighter, generally has to make the choice between PD or direct fire weapon capabilities.
Valkrie MK.II - Large ballistic turret, cruiser tier range, what's not to love.
Cephalofoil - Missile hammerhead.
Portico - Shield-based Lineship, relatively light weapons load.
Scric - High-tech fire support vessel.
Foreman - A mining Enforcer, for when you're unsure if you want to mine, or to kill.
[close]

Cruisers

Undertaking - Reversed and extended venture, more missiles, and swaps mining pods for a borer wing.
Undertaking (LP) - Pather Siege engine, packs a scary missile.
Gryphon (B) - Ballistic variant of the Gryphon, can be quite powerful.
Pteroma - Shield tanking cruiser, can pack quite a punch.
Sojurn - Lots of small energy mounts and a pair of heavy drones.
Dominatrix - Sister to the Dominator, an armoured frontline missile ship.
Saga - Missile support and a flight deck, but definitely not suited to front line combat.
Lily - Multi-use Autoforge... but only 3 small missile mounts, devastating if used to its strengths.
Scut - Clumsy and fragile, but at least it's cheap!
[close]

Capitals

Onquest - What you get if you jam half of an onslaught onto a conquest.
[close]

Bounties

Phaeton Mk.= - Offered by enemies of the Pirates, minimum player level 5, 90 days elapsed, fleet size 100.
Conslaught - Offered by enemies of the independents, minimum player level 7, 150 days elapsed, fleet size 200.
[close]

Weapons

Arpo MRM / Arpo MRM Pod - Cheap knockoff Harpoons.
Creeper Cluster Torpedo / Typhoon Creeper Launcher - Cheaper Reapers.
Flint Coilgun - Knockoff Railgun.
Gyro Micromissile Launcher - Cheap and Weak, but enduring anti fighter weapon.
Bearing Microrocket Rack - Weak but sustained light kinetic pressure.
Axle Microtorpedo Launcher - Lacks the power of a more standard torpedo, but has enough ammo to sustain longer engagements.
Mini Mining Blaster - Tiny and Inefficient, but a decent punch.
Miser Heavy Coilgun - An "Advanced" pirate weapon
[close]

Wings

Rumbler Heavy Interceptor - Knockoff Thunder, lacks any real EMP damage capabilties.
Khanda Support Fighter - Basically a flying point defense platform.
Aruval Support Drone - Rather cheap kinetic support fire, but completely lacking in survivability.
Kirpan Torpedo Bomber - A Khopesh that is better against heavy armour, more or less.
Urumi Heavy Fighter -  A flying needler, devastating to shielded targets but falls short against armour.
Piranha (P) Missile Bomber - Even cheaper and less threatening than the standard Piranha, but can actually hit frigates.
Chivy Support Fighter - Simple point defense and disruption support.

Check that you have version 0.5.1 and not 0.5
0.5.1 was a patch that fixes this specific issue

fyi Mayasuran Navy already has a Gorgon SRM (rack and single, small missile). Not sure if its similar enough to warrant a change, but its there.

Didn't realize mayasura also had a weapon called the gorgon, but after giving it a look, i think the weapons are different enough.
Mayasuran missile is a "conventional" missile, but my missile instead fires a blaster bolt on closing, something like an energy damage version of the Sabot.

Update 0.8

New ships, some fighters, some weapons.
Weapons now actually have costs assigned to them, previously had made a mistake and put an underscore where i should have put a space. (oops)

Update should be save compatible.



I can't wait for backwards Onslaught
I have no intention of doing that to an onslaught, though i may have... other ideas, unsure i'f they'll pan out though.

Crash on startup on Linux due to incorrect file capitalization.
Game fails to find "graphics/missiles/wrath.png", as defined in data/weapons/proj/wrath_missile.proj, the file is named "graphics/missiles/Wrath.png".
Similarly, graphics/ships/khanda.png is named Khanda.png

Please keep capitalization consistent.
