can you buy dreadnaught in exerilin mod?

[Gotcha!]

I have no idea. You'll have to ask in the Exerelin threat I'm afraid.

[Gotcha!]

[0.6.2a] v1.0.1
- LazyWizard to the rescue! Badges should now stick around on Angel Moon station until you buy them. Don't ask me of the magic behind it. I am no wizard!
  Please help me test this. I haven't had time yet. Thanks, LW. I owe you a lot.
- Skaal main laser energy cost slightly reduced.
- Sajuuk-Khar main laser energy cost reduced.
  Also added two Opat missile launchers (unremovable), eight heavy pd pulsars (unremovable) and one large missile slot on the front. Increased ordnance points, flux and venting.
  If people still think it's too weak, then they're using it wrong. ;_;

This update SHOULD be compatible with your savegame IF you first remove every weapon from any Sajuuk-Khar you might own BEFORE you install this version. (But I give no guarantees, because sometimes I overlook things.)

Hey Gotcha! I really like playing hiigarans in Exelerin but i have a small question regarding the sprites:

Do you plan to replace some model? Like the way the flak frigate frame is used for 3 ships (Toba wing, Drone Carrier and heavy Gunship), or with weapons ( pulsar beams and kinetick weapons come to mind).

[Gotcha!]

I would if I could. The problem is that these ships were originally made by someone else, with me only refining them to make them fit better in this game.
It's the main reason why I am not adding any more ships to this mod, since they'd be kitbashes from other ships.
Although I maybe got an idea while I am typing this. We'll see how it'll work out.

The build is NOT save compatible. I can load fine but when I unpause I get this message:
"Fatal: data.scripts.world.HiiBadgeofFriendship cannot be cast to com.fs.starfarer.api.campain.SpawnPointPlugin"
and the log states this:

[close]

Will test to see if it works on a new file

[Gotcha!]

Ah, pity.

[Midnight Kitsune]

Thankfully it DOES work on a new file but still is sad...

[Gotcha!]

Well, at least it's worth starting a new game in my opinion, due to them badges not disappearing anymore.

[echosierraalpha]

yay! update!

double yay for buffs of the saajuk khar and Skaal!

[Gotcha!]

I hope you're happy now, because when you're a high level, a single Sajuuk-Khar can destroy a gigantic Hegemony fleet with two Onslaughts in them.
I tested it.

So I am doing this for you guys, because I think the balance is way, way off. >_>

[FasterThanSleepyfish]

There needs to be a weapon balancer around here. I don't have time to calculate dps and damage multipliers over time, then repeating that process for every weapon. Wing it!

[echosierraalpha]

to be honest Gotcha!, the sajuuk-khar is a one-off super-duper capital ship, and is the "pride of hiigara". if it isn't somewhat OP, it would be kind of a let down

... besides, if you go by homeworld 2 fluff, all those missiles the vaygr throw at you throughout the campaign? they are fusion. in other words, nuclear. that's right, if anything, the hiigarans as shown here are kinda nerfed.  (please don't take this as a suggestion that we should buff the hiigaran ships so that it can tank nukes. while hilarious (and techinally accurate), it would be kinda game breaking)

[MesoTroniK]

Nukes in space are not exactly very impressive, especially against armored "magic tech" space ships

[echosierraalpha]

Nukes are generally not as impressive in terms of Area of Effect in space because there is no air to propagate the shock waves that deal the majority of the damage in terrestrial environments. However, in the case of home world 2, the missiles in question are contact-detonation nukes. the effect of those can be... very detrimental to hull integrity, not to mention crew health for the ship in question. Besides the burst in gamma and x-rays, thermal radiation and having pieces of your hull accelerated at great speeds through the rest of your ship, you also have to deal with the physical shock wave. needless to say, even if nukes can't take out multiple ships with a single shot, having one contact-detonate on your hull will mean that you, your ship and everyone in it is in for a rough day. magic tech or no
