Feedback: Kyeltziv ships with drone systems don't have a system "weapon" set, causing drones to appear from the center of the ship instead of the drone bays visible on their sprites. Setting a hidden system weapon there fixes the issue.

Noted, Currently working on an update for Rotcesrats, but i'll add this to the list of things i'm gonna sort out for the next Kyeltziv update.

I bet that ramming interactions will also see some oddities.  You might want to double check your mass or whatever calculates that compared other ships of the same class.

Did a check of the mass values of the ships, and they are pretty much in line with vanilla content. So no idea why this is happening for you.
One thing is that Kyeltziv ships are extremely reliant on their shields for survivability, so being "hit" from the sides/rear with the collisions from the magnetic impulse is going to give them a bad time even without any weird mass/speed issues.

Thanks for checking and that must have been it, beautiful faction and fun to fight against. It is on my list to use them as a main playthrough, keep up the good work.

Hey i've being breaking my head over doing minor DIY modifcation to this mod. Issue im having by default mod adds a system which still present in Nexerlin random core system, and i'd prefer Kyeltziv being random as all other factions. I've had similar issue few other mods in the past but managed to somehow rip out the system\planets from gen, while here im kind of stuck removing it from generation without crashing the game.
Can i get a tip what i need to edit\delete to achieve this?

Full source is included with the mod so you can look at that, but you'd have to go into data/scripts/world/kyeltzivGen.java and stop it from running kyeltziv_koltsevayaGen and then recompile the .jar

I just want to make mention I'm a huge fan of the faction weapons, I love the electric-themed ballistics and it puts a really solid image in my head for how they work. Cool mod, keep going!

[Big Bee]

I like this mod! It's a solid faction with fairly distinct looking ships and a unique battle-style and identity. Also shock drivers are great.

[balordezul]

Only got a chance to try out the changes for about an hour but overall this is very much welcome.  The top three changes for me are the Pereskia, Shock Palliser and the Fusion weapons.  The Pereskia OP change makes it more competitive and the extra 500 range on the Thap lets the Pereskia keep firing even when sitting behind Ilkut or a Narva.  The shock palliser went from the worst time to kill out of the large weapons to now being the fastest.  The galvanic large is still good with the range and special ability but now falls into second place.  The twin Lorentz has a worse TTK but at 20 OP and the constant rain of fire it is still a good weapon plus when paired with a twin fusion blaster they create a great anti fighter/missile stream between the target the ship. 

The change to the fusion weapons feels good and variable damage is a neat system.  The Fusion Houfnice is cheaper and slightly lower damage than the twin fusion blaster but when paired with armor weapon mounts for the improved recoil they work fairly well even at long range. 

The Cynara still die to enemy fire but they can take a few hits now.  In a set of 4 simming vs an onslaught I would lose between 1 to 3 of them now vs all 4 going down every in the past.

Update 1.7.1
A minor compatibility patch for linux users.

Update 1.7

Two new ships and three new weapons. Alongside various smaller updates, being a combination of QoL and balance. Also Ind.Evo support and a Magicbounty Chain.

The new ships are:
The Paimen is a combat freighter frigate that deploys a swarm of Kiusa drones, most effective as a point defense escort if actually deployed into a battle.
The Zlatko adds another option for use as a line-combat destroyer, with a good shield and a pack of escort gun drones.

The new weapons are:
A medium-slot PD blaster with tracking projectiles, highly effective against fast/evasive targets.
A mid-long range beam weapon that can slow/disable ships with concentrated fire.
A medium-slot modular shock-driver that acts as long range kinetic damage, albeit with lowish DPS.

Update is Save Compatible.

I love new faction mods. I see this one is actually old but its new to ME! Somehow I've missed it. I check the mod page literally every day. Anyway, I like your other ship pack. Going to give this a try. I love the ship designations/names. Using very governmental letters and numbers for the ships is strangely super rare. Everyone uses a "class" name. I like what you've done.
