Calidor's Interdiction Sequence is intended to screw fast ships. A single Calidor should not be able to totally lock down a ship because the cooldown is 20 seconds (13.2 with SysEx) - I am pretty sure base engine repair time even for a capital ship is less than that. A lot of the BS comes from vanilla flameouts - flameouts removing all control, etc. is a terrible mechanic.

I will consider some simple nerfs (range, cooldown) and think about some more in-depth rework to make it less sucky on the receiving end. Several Roider things are overtuned at the moment TBH.

Oh, is the flameout the only option you're given to achieve an effect like this? This would explain why it feels so extreme, I guess. It sure is effective at screwing with fast ships
About the chainlock, I guess it's because I was using a Cabal ship, I think their built-in mod reduce repair rate. In any case, I could 100% get chainlocked by a single ship. Not that they're always alone either, I've moslty seen them in pairs.

Mh, and if you're limited to flameouts, I guess you can't change its duration either? Something like this would be fine - screwing with fast ships is definitely fair - if it were toned down some way. Even a 90% slow would be better as the player still get to do something. Or a full stop, but with a way shorter duration, like a momentum killer that lets you move again almost immediatly.

Anyway, thank you for answering and caring!

I found when using your mod in my modlist i could feel a big performance hit when interacting with planets, like 3 sec delay when pressing the button to enter the market or when salvaging wreks.

Just wanted to post it here if it is unknown or something else.

I checked every single mod in the list and it was only your mod that made it happen. not sure if it is a bug when the mod is loaded standalone or if it some kind of interaction with another mod, modlist is attached to this message:

yup can confirm, have the same issue

it starts out with a small but noticable lag when opening any menu (including intel screen, planet menus, dialogues and battle screens), but it also seems to be affected by a memory leak and gets PROGRESSIVELY WORSE the longer the current game is played, to the point where it can take 10 seconds to open the intel screen

this only happens when adding roider union and its lib to the list

which is a shame cause i like the roiders, but this is like, not playable

 Will try the new version out as soon as my colony in my current playthough dies.

I've started a new game using the Roider Union 2.1.0 and I seem to still be getting ever increasingly long delays when accessing my inventory as well as occasional but regular increasingly noticeable stutters when flying around.

I have no idea what expeditions do. Read some posts online but found conflicting posts. I missed the convoy setting out of Korovin. Now I have no idea where are they or how to find them.

More importantly are these expeditions stealing resources & relics from the sector? Can I get these goods? if I miss an expedition are they gone forever? Help

[SafariJohn]

Roider expeditions don't exist anymore. There are only mining expeditions atm.

[Cimbri]

Are there any other places with Roider Union HQs than Korovin?

Dutch Harbor (Ounalashka system) and Holt Refining Complex (Attu system).

Actually I may be incorrect on the cause of the slowdown I'm experiencing as it seems to be happening without Roider Union installed...  Going to have to try and figure out what's doing this.  Sorry for the potential false alarm.

Hello, it looks like when we S-mods MIDAS-3.
Sometimes, its hull and armour from armour modules no longer showed. (I'm not sure that it is only the visual text or the bonus is lost)

Thank you for the report. It is only a visual bug.

Coming back I hope? I loved how alive it made the sector feel and I liked to tag along and see if I could scrounge up some good tech too
