i know that this kinda defats the purpose of this mod but is there any way to make it vanilla as possible as i only use it cause the uaf mod requires it and not for any of the 4x aspects as i pefrer how vanilla starsector handles factions

[Histidine]

So I recently got my own colony back after it being invaded.
However instead of being returned to my faction it was given to the Roider Union (Roider comission).
I can now buy the governship but its still roider union and not my own faction, do I need to ensign with my own faction for it to return to me or something?

You can get the colony back by choosing the 'take' option in the ground battle's intel screen (this should have no rep penalty if it was originally your own colony, but I haven't verified if this still works).
If you already missed the decision window, enter setmarketowner <planet name> player in the Console Commands console.

I keep getting an error when i try to launch with nexerelin. Due to the fact my pc is not able to be hooked up to the internet rn can i get a discord tag or something so i can shsre my starsector lol with you? I keep getting an obj json error

Are you the one who pinged me on Discord the other day?
If not, at a guess you need to navigate to the Starsector website and download the newest installer (I'd recommend tethering your phone to PC rather than downloading it direct to phone).

So I've been trying to get a specific behaviour set up.

I want to run non-random core worlds, with invasions on BUT with one caveat, I don't want them to invade any of the core worlds, I want to have the AI factions fight only for colonies established after the game starts.

Now I saw that some planets are blocked from invasion if you have the story planets invasion protection on, is there a way I can extend this protection to the rest of the inhabited core worlds so I get the above behaviour and if so how do I go about doing so?

Copy and paste the following into console:

Code: java

runcode for (MarketAPI market : Global.getSector().getEconomy().getMarketsCopy()) {
	if (market.getMemoryWithoutUpdate().getBoolean("$nex_npcColony")) {
		continue;
	}
	if ("player".equals(market.getMemoryWithoutUpdate().getString("$startingFactionId"))) {
		continue; /* don't protect player-founded colonies */
	}	
	Misc.makeStoryCritical(market, "$i_dont_want_invasions");
}

(note that colonies created by Vayra's Sector factions will also be protected)

Would it be possible to filter or disable blueprints in the faction starting bonus? Having enough mods makes it extremely slow in the window.

Sorry, can't be disabled currently! Maybe a setting in the future.
(Also I'll try to find out what's causing this slowdown and report to Alex if relevant)

The big thing you probably want to disable is invasions (and sat bombs), with the enableInvasions and allowNPCSatBomb settings
You could also disable diplomacy by editing its file in the config folder (make the event interval super long), and re-enable the vanilla hostility system with console (copy and paste the following):

Code: java

runcode import com.fs.starfarer.api.impl.campaign.intel.FactionHostilityManager;
FactionHostilityManager fhm = new FactionHostilityManager();
Global.getSector().addScript(fhm);

If you look around, there may also be other stuff you might choose to mess with (just try not to blow up your game in the process).

thank you for the suggestions

Hi i love the mod and was wandering if modded ships can be added so you can start with the ships from added factions (ie star wars mod)

I some how missed that this updated this month - does it break saves?

[Histidine]

Well I found out what causes the new game picker slowdown, workaround in next mod update (and next Starsector version will fix it generally).

Hi i love the mod and was wandering if modded ships can be added so you can start with the ships from added factions (ie star wars mod)

Most factions already implement their own starts, where you get their ships and a commission with that faction. If it doesn't, or you want different ships, you can add starting ships to the faction configs in data/config/exerelinFactionConfig/ (in the Nex folder for player and vanilla factions, or in the mod folder for third-party factions).

I some how missed that this updated this month - does it break saves?

Nex updates are always save-compatible at least with the previous version, unless otherwise specified (or there's a bug)

[Bluedeferum]

Hello, my game crashed every time I interact with my own created special task group. any solution for this?

You may want to check starsector.log in order to see what the problem is.

Feature request:

Thanks for the mod.  Its excellent.  I just finished the story mission and have built up Penelope system with 4 planets, the 5th being outside the system for organics.

I'm starting to engage in warfare with the other factions and have a decent sized fleet and I'm finding it harder/time consuming to get fuel/supplies due to the fights & the syndic fuel depot world got taken by a strong Persian/hegemony alliance.

Any chance of setting up a logistics officer/operative that supplies the player fleet with intervals of supplies & fuel so player can spend more time plotting/exploring/fighting factions?  Sorry If I don't understand the scope of what I'm asking.

Either way, great mod.

[Dadada]

There are ways to get lots of supplies, the easiest one is a way station on a bigger planet I guess.
Nex has a feature that lets you build supply stations if you click on a planet... As mentioned you can add waystations to your colonies (with a blue [redacted core]), you can make more heavy/fuel industries, so many options. You don't happen to have a couple super dreadnoughts from some mod in your fleet? Some of them could have really high fuel and supply costs per month, and you do have enough logistic ships to carry all your stuff, right? The tools to fix your problem are all there, I wish you success.

Thanks for the tip- I was ignoring waystations because I started in Penelope.  I've only considered them for their access boost and not a means of supplies and fuel for my fleet.

I'm not at home looking at the game now- I think the outpost detail was kind of generic- are they any good?  I got the impression they were a exploration tool when you are far out.  Do they make supplies and fuel at planets for you at cost?  Does it make any sense to put one in Penelope alongside my colonized planets?

[Dadada]

You should try it all out once you are home, but since you don't have way stations this will be the solution, they pile huge amounts of supplies and fuel, one is usually enough to supply more than one huuuge fleet, but the 10% or so access you gain may also be worth it, access multiplies your export value and the way station upkeep is cheap, you can supply at every single of your colonies if you build them on all your colonies, I recommend doing that. Remember that a blue redacted core makes them stock even more.

[xZarif]

Do defense fleets (requested task force ones) factor into the invasion autoresolve, if the player is absent from the system? Let's say I get a notification for an incoming invasion, so I hire a defense fleet targeting that market. Even if the defense fleet is "fairly strong" versus the invading "fairly capable", the intel estimation on the invasion vs. defenders still says "superior" i.e., unchanged after the defense arrives. The invaders defeat the station and deploy their marines while the defense fleet is still 'alive' in my intel, as if the defense task force doesn't exist.

immediately invaded tigra city and installed an alpha core admin, the first step towards n o h e g e m o n y except mine

Be mindfull however, since drawing supplies /fuel from a waystation still costs you money
a better way is to use variable manufactories with supply/fuelsupply vlc slotted into them
