Hi, is it intended to be able to get the blueprints for your bounty ships? Jealous, Justbeware, etc. My understanding is that the bounties were usually meant for unique ships, so being able to just find the blueprint and make a fleet of them seems counterintuitive if that's the case. Not a problem though, if that is your intentions.

Hello there, this touches on alot of comments I see on discord regarding my mods in general. To answer your initial question, all of the Bounty ships are on the rare_bp so the odds of obtaining them is well, rare. My overall commentary is that I am a firm believer of giving players options as this is a single player game. A good example is your proposal, what harm is there to you as a player if another player want's a fleet full of OP ships and that brings them joy?

I do hope you are enjoying the mod and thank you for the inquiry.

v3.6.1 released today - Save Compatible Note: You may need to reallocate OP any ships with an Adaw and rearm any Fluffy in your saved fleet
   -Adaw: Reduced hp from 400 to 300, increased refit from 10 to 15, lowered OP cost from 18 to 15 and reduced wing count from 4 to 2 - They were still too OP, just ask discord
   -Fluffy: Added a medium composite turret, increased op, acceleration and deceleration by 5, and armed the variant with a Drill LRM

Note: If any player has issues or suggestions for my mods, please message me on the forum or the unofficial discord. I think I am a pretty chill dude and will consider any feedback. This is the 6th? time I have balanced the Adaw and I *think* I have it at a decent state now. Anyway, thanks for sticking with JYD over the years as I learn and improve it, Enjoy!

no way in hell ya ain't a furry

Well hello there Mr. 1 posting. I originally had the ships in this mod named after dog breeds but it was pointed out to me that most of them were already used by other mod creators. I wanted to stay within a theme so I re-named the ships after dog traits. This gives them a unique naming structure while still dog related.

I do so hope you enjoy the mod but being a furry, as you say, has nothing to do with the mod name or ship naming convention. It is actually a reference to a song by Jim Croche, Bad, Bad Leroy Brown. There are several references to Croche's songs in the mod, the bounties are all named after songs of his, the planets 32 and Razor are references to Brown's weapons in the song and there are also multiple other references in the lore, but it has been several years, I figured I would let the secret out at this point. I am an old fart and a huge fan of Jim Croche's discography and wanted to give his work some exposure but I fear this player base is too young to get the references.

So to you Mr. 1 posting, who I am assuming is one of my discord "fans", I give to you a well wish and a good night.

Just downloaded this.  Can't wait to check this out.  The Adaw was my go-too but,  400 too 300 and 4 to 2? 
I hope they didn't convince you to nerf it into irrelevance.   I guess we'll find out.

Thanks for the mod Sir, and I do not think a dog themed mod makes you a furry.  Kids these days.

I do read comments and listen to advice but I make changes based on a few factors. I read so many about the Adaw being OP from several sources from discord and reddit that I figured I would make a carrier focuses run. I tested it vs. other bombers in several scenarios and found that the Adaw flat out dominated vs them. With 2 wings of 4, they could destroy a capital unaided and that was just bananas lol. I lowered the armor a bit because they lasted forever vs PD turrets vs. say a Longbow. To compensate for the reduction from 4 to 2 I did lower the OP to mount them and after testing them with several configurations I think they are in a good place, strong but not ridiculously so.

Thanks for the mod Sir, and I do not think a dog themed mod makes you a furry.  Kids these days.

Thanky YOU for taking the time to let me know As to the furry comment, idk it does not bother me, to each their own I think. And yea kids will be kids

Is there any way to hack this to work without Nexerelin ?

Is there any way to hack this to work without Nexerelin ?

Hello there!
I've been able to do that for some of my other mods so I am sure I could but the focus of JYD is mining strength and w/out Nex that function is moot. I appreciate that you may like the look of the ships or whatnot and do not care about mining so I will look into it. I should have some time today/tomorrow and I am caught up on my mod updates so I would be able to have something out by the weekend. Stay Tuned!

That's awesome! Thanks mate.

v3.6.2 released today - Save Compatible
   -Adaw: Reverted a nerf made in 3.6.1 raising the hp back to 400 - I noted that with 2 less targets for pd to engage that they died faster than intended
   -Removed the Nexerelin requirement for the mod, it will now work with or w/out that external mod - TY MakeTheFuture for asking
      -Note: LazyLib and MagicLib are still required as I use their code in some of the mod features

That's awesome! Thanks mate.

I actually want to thank you for asking as it lead me into learning some code that I can also use for my other mods to remove the Nexerelin requirement which I will implement as I can. Well except for Hiver as invasions are a core concept of that mod and that is a Nex thing
Anyway, I hope you like JYD in your next base game; let me know if you have any opinions once you give it a go.
Enjoy!
