SAVE COMPATIBLE
Rebranded to "what we left behind"
Run niko_MPC_genSpecialContent if updating
Fixed a rare crash with derelict escorts
Adds a terrifying secret
Adds questline that points you to it - requires wormhole scanner and level 14
3.5.0:
PROBABLY SAVE COMPATIBLE? DEPENDS ON IF YOU HVAE A BARYON EMITTER ANYWHERE
Make sure to run niko_MPC_genSpecialContent if updating
Derelict escort
Fleets may now enter abyssal hyperspace
Defense Satellites
Accessability decrement: 30% -> 10%
Was arbitrary all this time, I just think its too high
Variants reworked to get rid of machine guns in favor of either more HE or frag
Num bays reduced to 2
Weapon arcs reworked - now have a very notable blindspot behind the core

3.4.0:
SAVE COMPATIBLE
Overgrown Nanoforge
Clarified that overgrown nanoforges give a very powerful item when culled
Added a button to the core UI that toggles the built-in commodity weighting
TLDR is that supply adjustments previously had a super high chance of picking a commodity the nanoforge already produces
Now you can toggle it
Can now generate with indevo's ship components
Ultra-Magnetic fields
Fixed a bug where ultra-magnetic fields would have null names (and cause crashes)
Derelict Escort
Colonized FP increased to 50
Timeout increased to 60 days
Changes the derelict escort target names to be generic, to not spoil what theyre following
Close-range escorting still says the name since its pretty obvious most of the time
Escort fleets now force the simulation of fleets they escort
Otherwise, youll never see a trade fleet in the core worlds with an escort
Can be disabled in lunalib if save bloat/performance is a problem
Added a lunasetting to disallow escorts from spawning on patrols
Added new ability AI to escort fleets
Will now go dark if their target has gone dark
Will keep transponder onto the state of their target's transponder
Mod interactions
Conditions now properly interact with AOTD industries
Special treatment in a few cases for the military garrison (overgrown nanoforges, toteliacs)
3.3.3:
SAVE COMPATIBLE
Fixed a bug where XIV legions would spawn with custom smods (***)
If XIV legions are still spawning with this variant after updating, try running niko_MPC_genericCommand
You can test this by running AddShip legion_xiv_Elite and investigating the ship the game adds to your fleet
Reduced spawnrate of FTC districts, spy arrays, meson fields and hypermagnetic fields
3.3.2:
SAVE COMPATABLE
New condition: Frontier reinforcement center
Fairly rare
Prioritizes un-inhabitable planets over inhabitable ones
Spawns a small escort fleet for all friendly/trade fleets in system
Scales with fleet size
The fleets follow for 30-35 days with no distance limit
The fleets have a huge burn bonus so they can always keep up with their target
Will join their targets in combat
Basically, Tiandong two
Has a timeout period between fleets to prevent fleet spam
Once fleets are done and returning, they ignore all fleets
You cant get infinite felet strength this way, sorry
Decreases accessability significantly
Somewhat increases accessability of all friendly markets in-system
Not just your own
+25% hazard rating
Fixed a bug with satellite discovery
Made a satellite debug string more clear

Skulioda's variant has been changed to wreak havoc on MCTE users
I'm the author of MCTE, I get to do this
Only applies if MCTE is enabled as well as the relevant effect
Prepare yourself for thumpers, needlers, and talons
Skolioda is now reckless to facilitate this
Again, MCTE has to be enabled

The baryon field structure now has a little upkeep
Reduced the hyperspace topography value of ultra magfields and meson fields
3.3.1:

SAVE COMPATIBLE
New condition: Toteliac Habitat
Carnivorous fauna
Alpha predators, extremely invasive
+50% hazard
Military bases suppress the hazard rating and generate food/luxury goods, as long as supplies/fuel are in good supply
Only generates on worlds that could feasibly harbor these creatures
As such, they are rare, at 99% of worlds are uninhabitable wastelands
Even on habitable worlds they are uncommon
STC districts
Discover value reduced
Spy Arrays
Discover value reduced
Added config for satellites blocking same-faction fleets
Defaults to off
Ultra-Magnetic Field
Now reduces refining upkeep by 80%
Thematic

No longer spawns on habitable worlds
How can you survive exposure to a goddamn hypercloud
Added clarification to the condition tooltip showing what effects are disabled upon leaving the hypercloud
Also hints that a planetary shield works
Added a secret in the deep expanse of space
Tip: Bring your sunscreen, because they already have SPF 2000
Made a save before this? Don't worry, just run niko_MPC_genSpecialContent
Fixed typos
3.2.0:
PROBABLY SAVE COMPATIBLE
New terrain: Meson field
Magfield-like: Same texture, has storms, is a ring
Colored *** yellow
Has a wider orbit than magfields so they dont overlap
Spawns randomly via procgen
The normal meson field significantly increases the sensor profile of any fleets inside it
Meson storms are small, long-lasting, and have a fun little effect:
Instead of increasing sensor profile, they decrease it and massively increase sensor strength
Risk reward system: You find one in a remnant system and try to get into the storm to sensor burst and see everything around you
All terrain can now be scanned for hyperspace topography
Hyperspace bipartisan
Scan the jump points, the clouds are weirdly inconsistant
Ultramagnetic field
Meson field
New command: niko_MPC_findTerrainWithId
FindPlanetsWithCondition changed to niko_MPC_findPlanetsWithCondition
Anti-Asteroid Satellites
Added a ability to ground battles: Satellite Barrage
Requires friendly satellites over the planet
Single industry target
For three turns, damages enemy units on the target industry and forces them to be reorganized for at least one turn
This reduces their outputted damage and makes them unable to move out of the industry
Basically, suppressive fire
Long cooldown
No global cooldown - can be used in conjunction with other abilities
Hyperspace Bipartisan
Slipstream detection radius no longer scales on pop size, is now a flat 7 ly
Planetary shields now make the market count as not being in the clouds
STC districts

Ultramagnetic field
Changed defense increase to mult for simplicity
Updated tips
LunaSettings separated into sections
Bug fixes
Fixed a bug where indevo arty stations could be fought in an inappropiate setting by engaging defense satellites
Fixed a crash caused by this
Defense satellites now take lower rules priority than arty stations
Adjust defense overgrown nanoforge effect should now generate
3.1.1:
SAVE COMPATABLE
Junk handlers no longer try to exceed the maximum amount of junk structures defined in industries (Caused a crash before)
3.1.0:
PROBABLY SAVE COMPATABLE?
Four new conditions
Hyperspace Bipartisan
A rift between realspace and hyperspace
Creates a ring of deep hyperspace in the planet orbits path
Does its best to predict all possible positions the planet could be at if the orbit is recursive
If no orbit, just spawns a ring around the planet
Spawns a jump point that tightly orbits around the planets radius
Significantly increases slipstream detection radius, increasing with pop size
Significantly increases defense rating
+75% hazard, +50% access
+3 volatiles production
Very very rare
Hypermagnetic field
Spawns a massive magnetic field that storms a lot
Good for hiding in hostile systems
Significantly increases defense rating
+50% hazard, -25% access
Makes mining convert half its ore/rare ore output into metals/transplutonics
Very rare
Pre-Collapse STC Districts
+3 slipstream detection radius
+100 defense rating
+1 max burn and +350 sensor range to all friendly/trade fleets in system
Uncommon
Pre-Collapse Spy Arrays
+200 defense rating
+1 stability
0.7x sensor profile to all friendly/trade fleets in system
Uncommon
Bug fixes
Overgrown nanoforge icon is now properly sized
Satellites
2 ways to bypass satellites as things like smuggling were just impossible in places like raesvelg
Phase Ships
Based on the percent of phase ships in your fleet, you have 5 modes
Sub 30%-Cant bypass
30%+: 3 SP
50%+: 2 SP
70%+: 1 SP
95%+: 0 SP
ECM
Based on the ECM percent of the fleet
Yes, the ECM skill works
<10%: Cant bypass
>10%: 3 SP
>=25%: 2 SP
>=40%: 1 SP
Reduces rep with the market owner, massively increases smuggling suspicion, and sends fleets to investigate you
Easier to get than phase percent so harsher
Settings
Most settings converted to lunasettings
Extra overgrown nanoforge options added
General
Conditions made more common, across the board
Put a .kra file in a compressed archive, massively reducing the mod's filesize
3.0.3:
Removes the niko_MPC_convertObjectsToEnum command, the game should now automatically fix the bug
3.0.2:
Fixes intel crashes, use niko_MPC_convertObjectsToEnum command if updating from previous versions
Makes overgrown nanoforges a bit rarer
Overgrown nanoforges have 1 less intel tab
3.0.1:
Update to Starsector 0.97a
INCOMPATABLE WITH PREVIOUS SAVES
Update to Starsector 0.96a-RC10
New condition: Overgrown Nanoforge:
A old abandoned industial nanoforge, endlessly expanding in a grey-goo scenario.
Adds industry: Overgrown Nanoforge
Has a inherent costless and demandless output of goods
Will continuously generate structures that augment it's stats
Ex. A structure that increases the industry's supply output by 3, but increases upkeep by 2000 credits.
A structure that increases accessibility, but lowers fuel output by 1.
These structures do not instantly deconstruct, and the process of creation cannot be instantly stopped
It takes time and money to do so
Prior to construction, the effects of the structures become progressively more known as it nears the end
Encourages you to make early judgements on if you want to start destroying it before it's made, at less cost
The main industry is only destroyable once all connected structures are destroyed
Once destroyed, you receive a unique nanoforge item that massively increases commodity output of any structure it's inserted into,
but has various negative effects
If installed in heavy industry, increases faction-wide fleet size by 400% but reduces ship quality by 400% as well
The growths cease to grow and benefits are unapplied if the visible structure amount exceeds the vanilla cap
Sorry grand sector
At max structures (NOT ABOVE!), growths will begin to destroy and overtake existing structures
A really needy bonsai tree
Encourages you to stay on top of it
Always targets pop&infra last
If it is destroyed, the market decivs
Effects
Alter Supply: Increases/Decreases core industry output of a random commodity by x amount
Alter hazard: Increases hazard by x
Alter accessability: Decreases accessability by x
Alter stability: Decreases stability by x
Alter defense: Decreases ground defense by x
Spawn hostile fleets: Periodically spawns a friendly/hostile derelict fleet (no guardians) that patrols the system, up to x fp
This encourages you to treat this as a sort of bonsai tree, constantly minmaxing the effects, minimizing negatives, maximizing positives
Extremely rare - only 1-2 if any will spawn in a given game
Anti-Asteroid Satellites:
Bugfixes
Fixed a rare bug taht caused a crash in campaign due to ai
Num of satellites per planet reduced to 2
FAR less oppressive, now, yet still very helpful
Ships
Overclocked targetting (Frontal plate system) now 1. Overloads for far longer 2. Lasts for far less
Infinite range removed from core and connector, replaced with a long-lasting infintie range system that doesnt overload
Works on a cycle of, say, 23 secs of infinite range and 7 secs of normal
Gives you a bit of breathing room
Harpoon MRM small removed from most variants, as it was way too spammy
All weapons either now have secondary or primary PD capabilties
PD_ALSO and PD tags respectively
Variants
Standard
Rebalanced the frontal plates to be far more ballistics-focused
To compensate for the lost OP, the left plate now has harpoon doubles
Ordnance
Replaced annihilator pods with jackhammer/typhoon respectively
Variant weight drastically reduced
Beamer
Replaced most missiles with DEMs
Variant weight moderately reduced
Shielded
Connector module Locust replaced with hellbore to reduce spam
Variant weight slightly reduced
New:
Blaster
Overfluxed, overgunned
Energy focus
Plasma cannons, heavy blasters, and antimatter blasters
*** terrifying -- But with a very small variant spawn chance
Mining
About 20 mining blasters in total, is capable of stripping armor off anything
General mining theme
Pretty rare
Core
Do not fire through added - modules will no longer fire through the core, enhancing flank capabilities
Weapons adjusted in general
Core/Connector
Max recoil of weapons reduced to 10%
Sounds like a buff, but is actually a fat nerf as it makes it way easier to dodge projectiles
2.1.1a:
SAVE COMPATABLE
SOme misc balance changes, such as reducing the time the superheavy damper is active for, increasing targetting overclock cooldown, switching the ordnance locust to a hurricane
2.1.1:
SAVE COMPATABLE
Satellites significantly buffed: Heavy combat modules now have the system "Overclocked Targetting", which multiples weapon range by a factor of 100 for ~10 seconds, before overloading the module for 10 seconds. Has custom AI so that it doesn't activate when it's fighting a nearby ship. The satellites were a little sucky at their role as a long-ranged artillery platform, and this will significantly alleviate that flaw.
Core given "Superheavy damper field", a damepr field that reduces damage taken by 90% but only lasts for 2.5 seconds, has a 1 second cooldown, has 2 charges, and takes a while to recharge. The intent is to give cores a small amount of survivability against strike attacks, so you cant just rush in and burst it down. You're forced to at least hit it for 2.5 seconds, and at worst, 6 full seconds.
Heavy combat modules have been given armored weapon mounts.
Their beams are now modded weapons, that have instant travel time. This makes the beamer varient scary.
Raised DP/FP to 60.
Swarm variant is more common and now is composed almost entirely out of wasps.
