I just run into some weird behaviour with modular armour:

• Firstly the armour is not protected from AOE by shields, flash bombers (proximity charges) and ship explosions have both destroyed armour segments on my Corocotta (armoured) with the shields raised which doesn’t seem right.
• Secondly my ship is taking hull damage between combat ending and the post battle dialog. I assume that this is how I am paying the supply cost to repair the armour and so is intended but; A) this leads onto my next point and B) if I get into another fight before I have repaired the ‘armour’ damage will I have all of my armour but hull damage or will it remember that I have full hull but missing armour?
• Thirdly the aforementioned hull damage from lost armour seems to count towards crew casualties. In the situation that brought this to my attention I fought some domain era [REDACTED] and took no hull damage, but lost the front three armour segments, through shields, to the final ship exploding. Despite knowing that I took no hull damage the post battle dialog showed my Corocotta as damaged and told me I had lost thirty crew which, again, doesn’t seem correct.

Edit:

Two more minor things:

• In the refit screen indicators for weapon locations are drawn underneath modular Armor components until I move my mouse near them.
• Armor parts exploding seem to be far too energetic, especially multiple parts at the same time. The explosion easily whites out the area around them including the ship they were mounted on and any further threats incoming, is it possible to decrease the scale of the explosion? (note that I have GraphicsLib as well which I believe affects ship and module explosions)

Well, the armor ships are a basic implementation of the vanilla system so there isn't much I can do about any of these issues (some of which are new to me: damage to hull after the en of the combat? That really sounds weird) So sorry I'm not of much help, but those should probably be reported to Alex instead.

FYI I have posted the above weirdness into the bug reports & support forum (http://fractalsoftworks.com/forum/index.php?topic=13339.0). _{(Delayed due to Stellaris on sale in the humble store)}

Just to be sure the armour modules are unmanned right?

Perhaps a good time to try this game out again, been a while, and lets grace the playthrough with Scy. 

[DrakonST]

Hm... Why SCY weapons can be found on Remnants ships with DynaSector? Its just stange.

Also, found a fun anomaly. Take Lion, put on him some large miniguns, press shift and start adding some cap/vent. Miniguns start rotary animation!

Requires LazyWizard's LazyLib.

Minor maintenance update.

1.41

BALANCING:

 - Armored Corocotta-class cruiser:

 - Hydra-class destroyer:
   . OP reduced by 15 to 75.

 - Erymanthian Boar's MRM Array's missiles now have enough fuel to reach their target if fired at max range.

Any plans to update this for 9a?

[Tartiflette]

If I had more free time...

[Maelstrom]

he said in discord that it was gonna be complex so its probably gonna take some time : /

[cjuicy]

SCY has been Tart's playbox for really crazy stuff since it started, so it is going to take time. He did push out ORA and DA updates already, so its fine. Just take your time man.

I'm betting he's gonna screw around with modules and make some really sweet stuff.
(You guys remember keto's gun and hangar being breakable?)
