TStarsector thread
Not being able to board stuff, like Cathedrals is why I like to load up Marines when I have the funds.
Also fuck these guys, trying to take my bounty money. I didn't throw shrimps at an escorted capital ship for them to take it away. What's even worse is another patrol asked the same shit when I got to my Omnifactory.
Goddamn these Diable fighter crafts eat supplies like a goth kid at a pancake party.
where were you when IBB was kill?
I tried to get into this game but the start was too overwhelming and I couldn't find any guides. How am I supposed to know if I can take an enemy? What should I do at the beginning of the game? Are all of the missions attainable, or am I going to regret trying to make a long haul or taking a bounty somewhere?
is this game like FTL?
>>333242643
Anon pls.
>>333242643
It looks like it.
http://pastebin.com/swzWjDet
Looking for feedback to improve this, its been awhile. Hope Tiandong updates before industry comes out.
>>333242643
No, more like Mount & Blade in space. Or like more complex version of Asteroids.
>>333242584
I'm still working on a general starter guide. If you are still starting up, buy a mining ship and do some mining. Do the tutorial. Go to your refit screen and run simulators until you get the hang of your starter ship.
The missions in the mission board are rarely attainable to someone new.
>>333243068
Alright, sounds good. That pastebin above looks helpful. Is going solo something I can reasonably do in this game, or am I going to want to build a fleet ASAP?
>>333243330
You can go solo but you'll be locking 90% of the game's content on account of the fact that you'll be skipping most if not all missions and running from everybody.
>>333243025
It will.
>>333243480
Right, so like going solo in Mount and Blade. Looks like it is time to give this game another shot.
What do you use for your Pandemonium large slots?
The layout seems really weird. It's very hard to bring more than 2 of them together on any one target.
>>333243834
I usethermal pulse cannons because i'm in an Onslaught instead of that shit
>>333244010
Not him. But fuck you,
1vs1 faggot, not custom loads and Corvus map only.
>>333244010
I like Onslaughts, especially XIV version, but the amount of chaos a Pandemonium can cause is really incredible.
How do I buy?
which ship-tan is the most tsundere?
>>333243038
alright, sounds fun. I'll give it a shot.
Is there anydegeneracy?
>>333243038
Why do you faggots never compare this game to Mechwarrior? Because it's more similar to a 2d version of Mechwarrior than it is to fucking Asteroids.
>>333245096
Pirating it like a normal person.
>>333245663
Well, not everyone knows what Mechwarrior is.
>>333245243
Versant-chan.
>tfw she starts getting embarrased so fast that she stops going at full capacity due a overfluxing reasons.
So moe.
>>333242569
Proposing a different system.
And trying my hand at alliterations
>>333245663
I've played a Mechwarrior game that played like this.
>"great minds and scientists"
>exiled and exterminated
>create something very close to communism
>steal from others and indoctrinate prisoners to be slavers and informants
>use the information they gathered to get their way
>white and blue color scheme
SCY:
JEWS
IN
SPACE!
>>333245887
Does anyone know about mechwarrior anymore? I doubt most of the people on this board have even played a mechwarrior game, probably not even that shitty mmo thing they made.
>>333247883
There are like 5 different jews in space factions bro
>>333247883
If SCY are jews in space then what are the other mod factions?
>>333242010
Probably because they're so fucking strong.
>Kill a max-level Tri-Jew kill fleet
>Diable and Luddic Church send max-level kill fleets after me within seconds of each other
Holy fuck.
At least I managed to snag the carrier from the tach fleet.
so do you buy this game or something?
>I think I'll intercept that Diable invasion fleet
>Storm-class Battlecruiser
>8 rapid-fire micro slots on this fucker plus some jizz lasers and super strong ballistic guns

I've gotten like 300 hours of fun out of $15
It's a much better deal than any released game I've gotten in the last few years
>>333249091
Great posting, friend. Now get the fuck out.
>>333239862
is there a multiplayer/co-op mod?
>>333250037
Sadly no, would have been fun though.
>>333250037
No and never there will be, would require to rewrite the entire game.
Unless someone capable of coding can convince Alex to hire him for free (alex hire the anon, not the other way around obviously) then never ever
This is now a waifu thread.
>Tri-Tachyon and Cabal are favorable allies

They had it coming, now I'm free to leave this faction and work on fixing my relationship with everyone else. All the hostilities are completely worth fucking over the Cabal's safe havens.
>>333250849
Space aryan master race, reporting in.
>>333250830
It would work if you take out the pause mechanic.
You're doing consecutive threads. Take this to /vg/ you fucks. thats why the board is there.
>>333251020
These threads die fast. It doesn't really have enough posters to keep it alive in /vg/ either.
>>333250991
And the accelerated time
And the "combat time"
Only way I can see it is as a "skirmish mode" between two players
>>333251181
Nah man just have the other players be officers in the main fleet, fly together die together.
>>333251020
>Oh no! I can't shitpost anymore in my Persona thread anymore because here anons are discussing about a videogame :(

>>333251273
I don't know why but that random outburst of Spanish caused me to almost fall out of my chair in laughter.
>>333251273
Discussing video games are fine but when you get to the point where you got a copy pasta image like >>333242010
You clearly need to go to /vg/
>>333251181
I see no issues with the combat time unless some one wants to jump in, but then it'd be just like a reinforcement mechanic.
Might need to pause both parties' mission clock though.
>>333251242
This too. Seeing anons asking the host to buy them ships to fly using those qt portraits would be too adorable.
>>333251407
It was made so people can get into the game easier and not spam the thread with basic shit.
>>333251480
>look I can do it too
Which faction should I focus on if I want to just cover my ships in lasers?
>>333251589
the only reason you'd need that if you were making the same thread over and over. which is what /vg/ is for.
>>333251589
You could ask Alex for some more in-depth explanations
>>333251664
Neutrino.
>>333251664
Anything high tech.
Tri tachion and neutrino come to mind.
Templars have multiple built-in burst pd lasers
Never tried Anime Plethora of Power Overwhelming but if you want to play as a bunch of 2hu character (disgusting OPness included) go for it
>>333251273

Why the fuck does this game drop fps when there's large fleets around? This shit is made up of 2D sprites. The fuck are you doing, dev?
>>333242010
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tLK-F8lSrGw
Thread theme, also LoGH mod when?
>>333252637
Sharers and graphical effects.
Especially if you are using shaderlib and mods
>>333252728
I turned that nigga off.
Can I spam guided missiles?
>>333252769
Are you fighting a diable fleet? Missile and wanzer spam cause that
>>333252938
why not?
>>333252986
Nigga, I AM the Diable fleet.
I'm talking about the fps drop on the overworld map.
>>333252189
I need to get around to playing Ace Combat. Which games, and do they emulate well, are worth playing?
>>333252938
My last playthrough I had a bunch of scrap pile destroyers and frigates loaded up with long range missiles. Watching the clusterfuck of missiles overwhelm my opponents shields while I kited around them was amazing.
>>333252938
hell yeah nigga
>>333253067
CPU bottlenecking or OpenGL bottlenecking the CPU
An in game chat room would be nice if this doesn't have MP. A lot of single player rogue likes/lites/wannabes have that.
>>333253067
Too many fleets and maybe certain effects (explosion, nebulae, etc)
>>333253165
I've seen that in Tales of Maj Eyal, what else has it?
Could always make an IRC room but IRC is absolute cancer
>>333253067
Turning off the UI with F11 on the campaign map can help increase FPS. Also increases FPS in battles. I rebound it to B for ease of access. Practically doubles my FPS on a laptop with the UI off.
>>333252769
too many ships/missiles/drones flying and that will make AIs' threat caculate goes boom.
Is this like FTL? Is it free?
>>333253215
Nigga, just visit "I am angry, angry aboute rougelites" on vg for the full list. Basically all rogues have that chat room and death message nowadays.
>>333253215
The first thing I did when I started playing ToME was turn that shit off. But maybe I would feel different about a starsector chat.
>>333253317
no
no
>>333253247
Jesus christ, you're right. FPS practically doubled.
The fuck is this UI made of?
>>333253151
Most certainly CPU botttlenecking. The game largely uses OpenGL 1.1 (VERY old), and is mostly single-threaded.
>>333253391
The UI is most of what is actually rendered at any given time, during the campaign.
>>333253364
dropped
>>333252189
Which mod has the Falken again?
>>333253527
neutrino
>>333253527
Neutrino.
Same guy who made Diable Avionics. The red Falken blends right in. It was perfect for my DA fleet.
>>333253578
Ah.
I'll make do with Vapors, then.
How in the hell do I pilot this thing and make it work? My Nex hardmode solo start had a bumpy beginning involving lots of dying and generally being dirt poor. Whenever I would get this upon respawn it basically ment I was going to die again.the shaky start did teach me to love the tiger and centurion though
>>333254043
This is a freighter, not a war ship.
>>333254043

You'd have a chance. If you want to board shit, pump up your leadership and that boarding skill.

been seeing the threads, has gotten me curious so feed me your lies, your dirty dirty lies
>>333261554
>SO what kind of game is this
You lead your own spehc armada starting from from a scratch.
You can either be a smuggler, honest trader or a bounty hunter.
You customize your ship with mods which boost specific stuff ie. armor, better shields, more range on your weapons etc. and weapons.
>>333261554
Spaz with fleets and light 4X elements if you install a mod.

I swear, some ships are too fucking rare.
And even on second save which is commisioned to them i never ever see those frigates despite hunting for them on every single military complex of tri-jews.
Fuck.

>find a fleet of about 4 ships fighting 6 pirate frigates
>jump in with my lone Wolf to combat the pirates
>before the battle ends, lose my ship because of "system failures" due to low combat readiness
nice fucking game
can't even do a battle properly because of some arbitrary restrictive shit mechanic
it's so fucking stupid to have a time limit as bullshit as this on fights
is there a way to disable this absurd and artificially difficult mechanic?
>>333265208
Collecting qts is one of the hardest things to do in this game simply because of the RNG and the now large amount of portraits the game will have if you add the one from the forums and our very own messy pack seen here >>333261425
>>333266452
You are using novice crews. You want to be a loner, use elite crews instead.
ayyy
i kinda wanted to fight a templar ship for the first time
i heard they're bosses or something
my wolf is really strong so i think i'd have a chance if i had the Scy as an ally
uhh just started a new campaign by selecting a faction and this happened. Is it normal?
>>333266706
I had just started the game. My crew didn't had enough combat experience yet.
And anyway, more 10 or 20% combat readiness wouldn't have helped much. The ship i was facing was quite tanky and he was very agile. I had to use all my 3 phase skimmers to keep my weapons on him
>>333266513
Does each ship have its own waifu captain?
And are ship numbers akin to individual unit count in Mountain Blade?
>>333266886
Not every ship has an officer, but fleets usually have at least a few. You can hire up to 10 to be in your fleet in the vanilla game.
>>333266839
If you're serious about fighting in your starter ship instead of doing mining in the first few minutes of the game, you want to buy the highest tier crews available to you in the market.
You're also very low leveled so your CR will tank fast, especially on a frigate as they're not built for long engagements. Think of it as your avatar still not knowing how to properly take command of his ship.
>>333266886
You can hire officers and they can be the captain of your other ships. The game has lots of ships. Tons more with mods.
>>333266828
I KNEW THOSE SCY FUCKS WERE CHEATING
>>333267397
Should I restart?
>>333267752
Nah. If you really want, you can just drop your capacitors and vents to 0. That's reset your Ordinance Points.
Relationship and romance mod when.
This is going to hurt.
I hope I can capture the Storm. I really want one.
>>333268069
Is it even possible?
>>333268069
For what purpose?
This is the most OP ship i've ever seen in my life.
I bet not even templars are this op.
this faggot can literally go into phase space and cross 3 screen before it runs out of energy to phase, and before you can reach him, he can do it AGAIN
Is this game like Space Rangers?
I liked that one.
>>333265749
What the hell anon
You can get them easily on the hegemony military shipyards.
>>333269335
Just put a intervept order and fight other ships. It will tun out of CR eventually, jist keep waiting until it reaches 0 CR.
>tfw my Sunder(u) destroyer reks everything with it's trichon lance+phase lances
This high energy boost is so gud
>>333270046
This game has no text adventure.
>>333271073
WHAT????
I'm fucking no-lifing on hegemony military worlds checking their shipyards every time i can.
So far i've only seen and bought like 20 wolfs but NEVER seen a SINGLE Hyperion or Lasher.
>>333267397
Only the player starter frigate has artificially raised vents to help with the initial struggle. No other ship has this.
>>333265208
I am genuinely interested. the sound effects on the trailer is good too.
>>333272660
Hyperions are rare as FUCK.
Not finding Lashers is very weird.
>>333274412
I've spent like 5 IRL fucking days trying to find even ONE Lasher on a market.
So far got one but from lucky boarding.
>>333275190
You need the omnifactory, meine freunde. Dump your Lasher there and wait for it to copy the ship.
>>333275520
Playing vanilla.
>>333272660
Well the hyperion part is understandable, but the lasher is a relatively common ship. You should be finding one in military and black markets everywhere.
>>333276593
Safe hunting then, anon.
Are NGO assholes overpowered or am I a scrub?
>>333276809
Comparetively strong. You need to take advantage of their low number of weapon slots.
Help
First time starting the game, it's crashing with "Fatal:null" error because of ShaderLib.
What do, troubleshooting guide does't have that covered.
Also it is said to make sure starsector is GPU-Accelerated, how do I do that?
>>333276809
Not OP but close. Great for fighting templars because their large weapon slots allow them to field enough firepower to actually fuck templars up, sometimes before templars fuck you up.
>>333277539
What version of the game are you using? If I remember correctly, it needs the latest version otherwise it fucks up.
>>333277863
Right, I'm stupid, I thought I got the latest version
Man, juggling relationships is hard as fuck.
>>333268276
RIP anon
The Storm is smaller than the Maelstrom or Pandemonium, but it has thick armor and shits out missile swarms like it's nobody's business.
>All those wanzers
Holy shit, they seriously over buffed phasing ships in 7.2
Phase now gives also insane speed boost.
>>333278342
If Nexerelin, just buy shit tons of agents
>>333278891
It was a pretty cool silky smooth 10 fps battle. Not included in the picture is my Maelstrom, Haze, Gust and Hayle each complimented by a Valiant and a Blizzard. By the end of the battle we had no Valiants left.
The real problem was the huge Hegemony strike fleet that came right after. We won but it took out our Hayle.
I need a Pandemonium. How the fuck does that shit spawn? Silvie only spawns Maelstroms now.
Are there lewd portrait packs?
>Install New SCY
>Fucking Nemean Lion is supposed to be a rival for a Paragon-Class ship

What in the fuck?
>>333279693
Kinda.
See
>>333261425
>>333279841
It used to have an ability to reload its large missiles on use of the ship system, but in the last thread I mentioned it and he said he removed it.
If it is still there, you can try throwing one storm needler on it, and 2 large laser torps.
>ROLAND now needs 10k flux to shoot
What the fuck man.
>>333279841
What weapons? Try three ORION Artillery if you didn't. Also only the Paragon has a better flux capacity than the Nemean Lion in vanilla.
>>333279635
I got mine at the Freeport
>>333279314
Yeah, they did. That shit is bananas. You can't kill a Doom unless it goes full retard.
>>333262556
>tfw you can't refill your fuel and storing some of your ships in middle of hyperspace without worrying anymore
Why does Prism Freeport belongs to SCY anyway? I thought the station was an Independent thing.
>>333280270
>had opportunity to buy AND board doom class ships
>never even bothered
Fuck and now they're OP as shit.
>>333280424
Prism originally came from SCY mod if I remember correctly.
>>333280424
Because SCY added it originally and Nexerelin guy made a derp
>>333280424
You can still have the independent Prism Freeport in non-Corvus mode.
It was added in SCY to make visiting the hidden SCY system more rewarding, then it was added in Exerelin in the middle of Hyperspace and people starting to like it for its easy access. A while back if you had both SCY and Nexerelin enabled you can have two Prism Freeports
>>333280527
You can reset IBB progress via console commands.You should update all your mods and start a new game anyway now that most of the mods have updated (again)

For what purpose.
>>333282130
SS+ changed so that you can't put 100 vents on capitals anymore. Instead Flux Coil Adjunct is buffed a little.
>>333282178
For the two Autopulses, presumably
>>333248953
Fuck this cucked nigger, buy the game.
>>333282130
Because the limit is 60 vents and now Adjunct gives 25% faster vent speed
>>333282178
The Autopulses use ammo, so why not
>>333282579
You're not quiet there Anon but i'll give you points for trying.

Lots of factions enable missile spam, you have Diable, Tiandong, II and Blackrock for the most part.
So whats a good faction to start as in SS+ I tried SY and it felt lackluster especially the large energy slots.
So I was mining and waiting for Corvus to get raped by pirates yet again when a 4-1-0-0 pirate fleet surprised me armed with pulsed beams for mining and no other anti hull weapon
I said fuck it an engaged them with the alaster
Ended up raping the shit out of them, mining beams absolutely DESTROY hulls, the railgun-beam combination basically mined through the ships
I decided to take one of the beams for a IR pulsed laser for continuous fire and explosions, I'm practically unstoppable now. Now every fleet in my fleet that can carries a pulsed beam
Combined arms, ho!

Nemo got better. FallenShogun makes mistakes while outfitting his ships but tries a lot of things and never back off a difficult battle. The others I didn't watched much but they seemed at least competent. In general every players with more than a couple of vids became good enough. The recorded streams however are often made by complete newcomers and most of the time awful.

I can definitely reccomend watching his RECENT videos, he still makes mistakes but it's mostly non combat.
He's gotten skilled compared to last two seasons, he has the most viewers and due to that he recieves more advices. That helped a lot for him, just see season 6 and then the recent video.

Hegemony's theme when you're hostile to them. You get different styles of music depending on your relation with the faction (how cool is that?), but the melody is always the same.
>>333294341
Dunno, maybe people hate them for letting them legalize harvested organs, drugs, guns, and being jew. I'm personally indifferent, as often they're one of MY payers. One of many. I'm the boring option-bounty hunter/ship collector friendly to everyone, no assasinations guy.

>>333298414
As I remember, for vanilla factions, hostile themes are set in lower tone than neautral/friendly themes. Not sure about modded, but they generally are similar, making them sound more scary or upbeat.

I've been running a fleet as a pirate lord. Well, sorta. Been blown to smitherines so many times I lost count. Probably lost dozens of frigates.
Got a solid fleet going now, and got enough cash to finally buy some destroyers. Gotta look for more officers now.
Current flagship is some Kommando or some such that I've been digging, but I'd like to get a pirate cruiser worthy of an aspiring pirate lord such as myself. Any recommendations? I'm looking for something pirate-y themed, but I can settle for something a bit more high-tech.

SS+ adds several pirate-only ships that are at least decent.
I just started as a bounty hunter, but I'm not sure what to do. I've gotten the hang of the Centurian and positioning such that I'm able to broadside enemies with kinetics and rotate to high explosive after shields are busted for a quick victory.
I'm having less trouble winning most fights, but I'm not making any money. Supplies are eating up any bounty profits I make, especially when I have to cruise through hyperspace to new locations. Should I keep trying to hunt down pirates for cash, or should I start being a pirate myself? I've seen a couple of transports that would make good targets, but I didn't want to nuke my rep with any faction just yet.
Also, for hauling goods, how the hell do I get to places in time across hyperspace? It seems like I always run out of time when transporting goods outside of sectors.

>>333308531
Get your burn level to at least 11 one way or another. Never use Emergency Burn to chase bounty. It is a waste of resources. Don't bounty hunt in hyperspace if you don't know what you are doing, it is a waste of fuel. That means if you want to hunt stranglers, go with a small frigate fleet with/without fighters.
Hauling goods is only reliable if you do it via procurement missions posted from stations. Open market price fluctuation is opportunistic at best. Don't rely on it as your bread and butter because it have so many downsides. Those include 60% tariff, 30% loss on buying and 30% loss on selling. Procurement missions have ZERO tariff.
Then there's smuggling. You can either sell 500 x legally then sell 100 y illegally on the black market that have no tax to cover your tracks. Or you can go full smuggling, but factions will start to hate you.

Why is SS+ such shit?
I want some of it but it's a most or nothing kind of deal. I'd like the bounties, the ships and the shader effects (like when you hit a shield). None of that balance shit.
Mod is for module, which implies modular.
That file you can edit for options barely has anything useful in it.

>>333309901
I'll try spit balling some shit ideas. I don't know what you can or can't do for an officer skill though. I think more unique officers would be fitting, and giving them a special perk so they can modify the ship how they see fit would make complete sense. Maybe when Alex complete revamps then officers will get better and a lot more interesting. Before anyone asks: Frigate/Destroyer/Cruiser/Capital.

Yeah, that's what I dislike about it too. I don't want this shitugly Cabal faction and many of the other "filler" ships and those fucking hideous mod-ship bounties, but I do want those cool rustbucket pirate juggernauts and some of the nicer looking bounties like the Stheno and... yeah, I think the Stheno may be the only one. Even the fucking portraits it adds are disgusting and removing them from the player faction fucked up many of the bounties on display so I figure I should've instead manually replaced each one and then learned fucking java to remove the rest of the trash I don't need. Fuck that.
>>333313724
>>333313780
Nobody would need to do that if that mess was offered in multiple mods instead of a package.
I know java but I feel like learning the structure of it all to know what I can remove safely is more trouble than it's worth.
But then I miss out on some pretty gamechanging things like the bounties which are one of the only ways to make money out of combat.
Really, there's no reason for it to be a package. It's insanely stupid to have to choose to either have vanilla which is terribly slow and high risk low reward, or SS+ that you have to marry, for better, and especially for worse with that feature creep.
>>333314939
What don't you like about SS+? Everything seems fine to me.
>>333314939
there are excellent reasons to have it as a package, one of the main reasons beign that its easier to get valuable feedback, easier to balance the mod as a whole, and much MUCH less work for the modder
if you dont want ss+ then dont play with it, it's that simple. if you dont want the rebalancing theres a thing called a spreadsheet editor you can use to revert anything you dislike to its vanilla value (when it comes to ship and weapon data)
>when you get to high level and Capital ships the game can't offer enough fun
Starfarer mode is fun and all with extra strike fleets and such, but it's not enough. I can blow them all up with my flagship and destroyers without ever committing my cruisers
The only one I had some trouble with was the last IBB bounty, and even that was because I was using the Yamato and in the second round didn't remember to call reinforcements.
Pushing a wreck into that missile was fun though.
>>333316348
RIP, meine fraulein
>>333316108
>beign that its easier to get valuable feedback, easier to balance the mod as a whole
Really? I don't know about java but I have seen how ship and weapon stats are stored so explain to me how it's harder to change a text file to alter weapon x's damage or fire rate, or get feedback about anything at all if they're loaded in separate packages? The shit part of the package would obviously get less feedback since fewer people would download that junk but that doesn't help your stance in the slightest.
>>333317139
You would be dependent on every person giving feedback to make it clear which version of the mod they are using. People already keep confusing SS+ with vanilla content and the other way around on the official boards.
>>333317635
People already have 15 other mods installed next to SS+ so I still don't see how this is a problem. Vanilla is the only balancing standard. You say what you find unbalanced and then the mod author knows which fucking part has it. How is the feedback less valuable or the balancing harder this way?
>>333315542
I actually like most things, but some choices are dealbrealkers for me.
- Most of the balance changes aims to make the game harder, I think vanilla normal mode is great for me.
- Some skills changes don't go too well with my playstyle. While I like the changes to the leadersheep tree, the maneuvrability nerfs are absolute shit for my playstyle.
- I feel like the game absolutely loves to throw huge fleets at you, while I enjoy medium sized fleets battles the most.
- There's a lot of redundancy in the added content, more on the gun side than the ships.
I've only listed things I dislike since that's what you asked. My issue with SS+ has everything to do with the fact that I can't get what I like out of the mod without getting what I dislike.
>>333316108
How is it easier to work on one huge thing instead of delegating individual mods to a few so that the work becomes multithreaded?
Balance is also a thing of opinion, which explains the fact that SS+ exists at all. Individual mods become easier to tweak, and A WHOLE LOT EASIER to update. If I don't like a small part of a small mod, I can easily change things every time it updates. The whole SS+ folder has to be overwritten when it updates, and all the fucking changes redone.
It's funny that people talk about having to know java because OOP became what it is partly thanks to it's ability to be compartmentalized, the complete opposite of SS+.
The mod system in SS is so fucking good, it's incredibly simple and powerful. So why doesn't SS+ take advantage of that?
>>333318062
Which parts of "the balance changes" don't you like? By my count, about a dozen of the 60ish weapons are changed and a couple of the ships have different stats.
>>333318452
Did you quote the wrong person? I don't give a shit about balance.
>>333318231
Yeah all that shit sounds convenientFor you
>>333318231
>redundant guns
There are, what, eight new guns? That's not a lot.
>>333318231
>tripling the amount of work to make the mods communicate between themselves instead of having a single mod, and doubling the amount of time a realease takes sounds really convenient because im a lazy faggot
>>333318062
What the fuck are you even talking about? Did you even read my post? Do you understand what we're discussing?
>>333318231
>lol just make 200 mods so i can cherry pick content XD its simpler
>>333319310
I'm talking about what you're saying seems incredibly stupid and asked you to explain how you imagine it's not. Now try hard and read it again, slowly. And try to answer this time.
>>333308131
I try to avoid using D class variants.
Plus, playing as a pirate seemed like a fun challenge, and I've been enjoying it so far.
SS+ helps in keeping options open too.
>>333320547
Yeah, that would be a good way to summarize the game if you're a retarded shitposter.
>>333318683
Mods are all about making the game into what you want. They are choices. I'll support everything that gives players more choices, even if they're things I personally wouldn't like in my game. Splitting SS+ gives more choices, keeping SS+ as a package restricts the number of ways you can play YOUR game. The fact that you're fine with the current content of SS+ is irrelevant.
>>333318972
You clearly have no idea how OOP programing works. If things are written properly, each mod can be completely independant and has 0 problems "communicating". That's if the mods need that in the first place. Why do the ships have to be included with the skill tweaks. Why do bounties have to be added with balance changes? And while we're at it, why don't we put all the factions in SS+? That should make them faster to update too, right?
The way SS is written favors individual, independent yet interconnected additions. You can write mods that use other mods without knowing what is in those mods. That's how good the encapsulation is in this.
You can stop pulling multipliers out of your ass anytime.
>>333319451
>strawman
You could split the mod in 3 or 4 mods and it would be a lot better already.
>>333320675
>OOP programming
I fucked up there, should be OO programming.
>>333320675
>The way SS is written favors individual, independent yet interconnected additions.
>And while we're at it, why don't we put all the factions in SS+? That should make them faster to update too, right?
Lol why do you expect anyone to take you seriously
Hey, how can I increase fleet size?
Does it increase the fleet size of NPCs as well?
>>333320547
And also shittier character progression, shittier performance, shittier faction related options. Basically. Although worse visuals is arguable. I think SS looks better.
>>333320660
Is it shitposting if it's true but hurts your delicate feelings? You can still like the game despite these, you know.
>>333320960
No, I'm suggesting that this game isn't like MB at all, except for in the most sweeping generalizing way. If you play Starsector, I imagine it's because you have a boner for sci-fi shit or 2D space games. I fail to see why someone would play Starsector because they like Mount & Blade alone.
>>333320913
Not him but that's clearly sarcasm. An anon is suggesting putting everything in one mod is faster and better.
I want to buy this, but its not on steam, and that makes me sad.
>>333320960
It's different. They're similar in their open world interactive system.
I dunno, not trying to put words in your mouth but comparing this to M&B is like comparing apples and oranges.
If I want to play M&B, I'll play M&B.
If I want to play Starsector, I'll play Starsector.
>>333320967
SSP latest version increased it to 100 max fleet in ship for players already.
Only revenge fleet scales with player fleet as far as I know.
If you don't have SSP, then go to data/config/settings.json.
Find "MaxShipsInFleet". Change to desired limit.
>>333321376
I do have SS+. I want more ships.
>>333321179
There are very few reasons why you'd want this on steam and they're all stupid.
>I want my drm so bad
>I want my friends to know I'm playing this game (protip, you can add a non steam game)
>I want the name in my steam library
kill yourself bro
>>333321154
Not hum but you are literally retarded.
Starsector is M&B in space. Get over it.
>>333310314

Where/how can I add more spess waifu's? In game stock ones are ugly as all hell
>>333320675
Why can't I get the graphical effects in starsector+ without all the rest? I'm constantly told to play vanilla first but this would be purely eye candy. God fucking damnit the game looks visually boring without that.
>>333321508
Then go to mods/SSP/data/config/settings.json.
find "MaxShipsInFleet". Don't know how the fuck can you exceed 100 ships if you have SSP latest version.
>>333321754
i like how you say it's MB in space and act as if the emphasis is on the "MB" part and not the "in space" part ;^)
>>333321856
is that even a woman?
>>333321894
If you are making that assumption then
Its because you are stupid, not because it exists. Just fuck off moron.
>>333321638
Ignore those people, they're just butthurt shills. This game is very much like M&B. And like you said, its design is flat out worse in just about every aspect. It's still alpha though, so a lot of things will probably improve. And it's not that this is bad, it's more like M&B is just really good. Even though M&B also feels very incomplete in a lot of ways.
>>333300191
What is the mod exactly? SS+ music without the need to have SS+?

How do you get the gilgamesh?
Why even have so many big ships? The game gets too easy, who is left to give a challenge?
Maybe we should let this die while we still have good memories of threads past.
I'd hate to see this devolve into mindless rage and have to go back to browsing /v/ and wade through an endless sea of Twitter screen caps and bait.
How should I build my Pandemonium? Just got one from a nasty battle and was able to board one and bring it back to life.
Right now its my only ship really, as the rest were lost in battle.

>>333322540
All mod-ships including Gilgamesh is from SS+'s boss bounties. Should be some bounties after getting the Hothur (Conquest) and sometime before the Exemplar (Paragon). Some people add boss factions like ApproLight or Knights, but its debatable to even have those mods enabled.
There was a really cool suggestion/idea before of ghost fleets attacking you out of the blue, with all your previously lost ships/crew. Then there was a past save fleet to challenge you, if you like starting over after you feel you've made an ideal, unstoppable fleet in a campaign. A mirror-match fight would be interesting as well, but I don't know if any of these suggestions are remotely possible to mod.
I personally wouldn't know what would make a good endgame objective, having an incentive that isn't making your fleet even more powerful. I guess one way to prolong the game is to add RPG elements like upgrades and affixes, but having weapons and ships that scale in level over time would be excessive, and I don't think that kind of power creep would be appreciated.
>>333324279
A newly commissioned officer of Hegemony is given the utterly shit job of mapping intercept coordinates to a fuck huge pirate fleet coming out of the Barad moon system. The problem is when he shows up in the Barad jump the fleet is already two days ahead of him, and so he rushes out to find them.
On the way he discovers a cache of high tech weaponry on an abandoned terraforming platform and is convinced by his crew to pack their storage with it. Before intercepting the pirates, the Cabal show up, scan their cargo, and demand the tech.
I'm fleshing out an over-arching story where an absolutely retarded mad man with no strategic or tactical know-how what so ever steals a Neutrino battle-ship and begins a conquest of the entire star-sector, his goals and ambitions only being fulfilled by the small band of loyal officers he has gathered to his cause. It will be a tale of brotherhood, of espionage and intrigue, a place where corporations have more power than the government and no one ever asked for this. There will be battles, there will be blood, there will belewd waifu erotica
>>333324796

Am I crazy or does SS+ change the way you level up? I feel like I get less aptitude points and more skill points.
If so, any way to change it back to vanilla?
>>333324923
Factions expected to be in my tale:
-Fucking all of them
I am only avoiding a few. The ones NOT in the story are:
-AI War
-Bushi
-Citadel
-Crystantine
-Flu-X
-Objectless
-Mayorate
-Shadowyards Reconstruction Authority (sorry Anon-modder, I only have 7.1 and can't find a version that isn't 0.7.2)
etc.. All the major factions will be in the game as they are on the Corvus map. That reminds me, does anyone have a link to the 0.7.1 version of New Galactic Order? I don't want to update until all the major mods have updated.
>>333325427
You get more skill points and the same aptitude points.
>>333323723
Just got it
>>333324663
Ill go get SS+ then.
Random fleet attacks would be fun, why cant enemy factions put bounties on YOUR head that keep going up and up.
>>333325427
Pretty sure it got changed to 1 Apt point every 2 or 3 levels, but at least 2 skill points every level. I want to say the levels that give Apt points give 3 skill ponts.
>>333325586
It's a 1/2, 0/3 alternating pattern. Every 10th level up to iirc 40 gives 1/3.
>>333325218
If I told you guys that there'd be no story to pastebin and spam in future threads. Let's just say comedic timing is everything when it comes to the Cabal.
so this games out and its good or what? I remember some guy posting his progress in amateur game dev threads but is this a finished product?

no its shit, thats why these threads are here almost every day

Changes.
Enabled fighters.
Mobility also increase burn level by a factor of 1. Meaning "Normal" quality ship will get +1 burn if upgraded to the max.
>>333325495
>no ai war
But the dark spire add so much mayhem to the sector
>>333324796It'd be cool if an Old Domain era gate suddenly activated at some point in the story
>>333325495
Lol, how are you gonna wring enough personality out of everything? not that im doubting you, im looking forward to see how you pull it off
>>333325559
It would be funny to have comm sniffers intercept bounties placed on you. More flavor text, and could be used to show reputation boosts/loss over time.
I imagine pirate lords would place bets and bounties to see if anyone's man enough to take down the big bad bounty hunter. In fact, why can't we have a personal intel tab dedicated to public/intercepted news on our fleet? At some point you'd build sector-wide recognition, especially if you're 100/100 cooperative with Hegemony and do things like fight off a large Tri-Tachyon invasion headed for Jangala with your own fleet.
>>333326240
>AI War
>Go into hyperspace
>Vengeance generator right next to jump points
>Dark Spire fleet emergency burns as it spawns out just to give you some oversized dark alien dicking
All they know is rape and mindless violence. And how mysterious they can be is why I understand them not appearing in writing.
>>333326512
By taking it in steps of course. This isn't my first rodeo- I know how to pace characters, descriptions, lore and culture. The reader knows precisely as much as they need to know to allow their imagination to paint a vivid picture. The rest comes through subconscious hints via description and character action.
>>333326649
Awesome, I look forward to it greatly.
If you ever feel the need to have someone proofread I'm up for it.
This write gag might get me inspired to jot down some ideas I've been bouncing around in my head. Been thinking it could be fun to write a short story about some marines boarding a disabled ship. Give some insight into the shenanigans that they must run into since they die in such great numbers it would make a fighter pilot blush.
>>333325059
I'm doing it right now, I'm after a bounty that just spawned close to Hegemony faggots, which they hate me.
And every time I defeat the pirate fleet some of my ships starts malfunctioning due CR consumption. I just end with 2 or 3 destroyed.

It really is, but its more of an easter egg ship to me than anything. It shouldn't exist but I'm glad it did. It would still be fun to use, even if it was toned down to Pandemonium-tier stats.
