Goathead Aviation Bureau

Original mod by Mimeio(Original Fossic post)


"The friction between speed and firepower makes sparks in the shining Sector. Welcome to the Goathead Aviation Bureau."


Download link for translated ver:Google Drive

Requires LazyLib, MagicLib, GraphicsLib

Faction blurb:
After a lengthy evacuation process, the Aviation Bureau eventually settled in two restored orbital stations, located in the Taivassija system south-west of the Core Worlds. Their ships are roughly analogous to "midline" design philosophy: tending towards high firepower and/or speed, but most ships lack solid armor and shields (there are exceptions, of course).

Changelog:
...I've decided since I can so rarely remember to even update the version number here, that I'll just redirect you to the Changelog_EN file in the mod itself.

Might be worth noting that not all the decks were full, as it was just recovered from an enemy fleet.

idk what the cause could be, will pass onto Mimeio: though, are you using HexShields? Judging by the crash that might be the source

Nope, no hexshields in my modlist.
My theory is that spec is null because the decks are checked in order, even if I have just one wing equipped in the last slot. The for loop then starts at the first slot, which is empty, thus crashing.

Just tested and confirmed the bug, passed it on to the mod author: thank you for the report!

i like to past on your battleship its evil gaze in the files only has 200op? can't even fit it with full weapon load out because comes with so many hullmods when starting a campaign with it.. is that ment too be?

There are some issues with the variants, yeah. That one's default variant uses more ordnance points than it actually has available lol. This is already known by the mod author though.

I tried changing the game version from .95 to .96 in the mod_info file, which is a halfway measure until a real update comes along. Before making the change the mod will show up in red on the list and isn't possible to pick. But when I change the game version the mod just disappears from the list entirely.

The same happens with Transverser and Gensoukyou but with the English mods the method works. I assume changing the game version doesn't work with Chinese mods for some reason?

Did you change the version in both of the version files? There should be two, one for English and one for Chinese. I'm pretty sure when I changed the version in both it worked fine.

[Darkspire91]

No dice. Traverser "updated" but missing from the list, but Goathead's not but is still visible. Also, Goathead's missing the second mod_info file for some reason.

[DrajeSsS]

need update

[MrMagolor]

Editor's note: due to a *** on my end (long story) the 0.95 version will no longer be available, though I guess that doesn't really matter anymore.
