Ben's Mod

Sadly bruhsd's problem is not an issue I have already dealt with. There are two possibilities as to why you are getting this error the first and most likely is that there are two mods that use the ammo type "wifi" (I plan to rename it but it may take some time) or you have two versions of my mod.
"wifi" is more borrowed code that is biting me in the backside and probably has a conflict with the Automation ++ mod.

ooooooooooooooooooooohhhhh that's why OK, thanks for the update

The 1.6.7 update should fix your issue give me a message if it doesn't.

BenK is there links to older versions of this mod? more specifically 0.15.11?

BenK

Sirbottington88
I was going to say this doesn't exist but apparently I am a pack rat and it does exist so here is a temporary link to it.
-- now dead link --
Is there an issue with the mod or are you just trying to run 0.15.11?

Sirbottington88

Sorry for the late reply but im trying to use an older version for some mods, thanks for the amazing mod!

if you want awesome turret your going to pay for it

what if I told you that I figured out a way to completely break the progression system and made epic powerful
(relatively) small gun that can kill anything massively beyond it's price range?

BenK It's come to my attention that you have four of my ships in your mod that you added without telling me. The four ships in question are 'Ds__Fast Attack A', 'Fr__GLE Heavy Escort', 'Hc__Rebel A' and 'Hf__Rebel Missile A'. Could you remove these ships from your mod ASAP, thanks.

I do realise these were once a part of a public mod, but they were still my ships and were only intended to be a part of that mod and that mod alone.

Hello UltraNova
Sorry for the late reply but I have been doing other things.

Alright you do have a semi legitimate complaint.
Reasons:
First -- The above ships are based on your designs though most only use your outlines at this point.
Second -- the names are similar.
Third -- Paint job copy (which is totally yours)

Now for the bad news.
First at this point None of the above ships are still your ships as they have been completely rebuilt without your parts.
Second renaming or removal will cause any existing game to crash (You should know this).

So we will go through the names and determine ownership.
Ds_Fast Attack A -- Its too generic and not your original name anyways. (not renamed its name totally suits it)
Fr_GLE Heavy Escort -- you have the rights to this name (Renamed to -- Fr_Heavy Escort A)
Hc_Rebel A -- Its too generic and not your original name anyways. (Renamed to -- Hc_Patrol A)
Hf_Rebel Missile A -- Its too generic and not your original name anyways. (Renamed to -- Hf_Light Missile A)

Will renames and paint job changes be ok?
If there not ok then convince me why.

Couple quick bugs, the level 3 railgun loader is actually in the level 1 tab, and also tiny reactors don't count as objectives in bounty hunter (ships without a control room but still with a tiny reactor will count as defeated)

BenK

CaptainRedstone

Thanks Captain Redstone.
I am going to rename the level 3 railgun loader to advanced railgun loader.

As for the tiny reactors that was a I did that on purpose because the tiny reactors tend to get everywhere and you end up having to destroy every inch of the ship to get your reward (imagine if a cube D had a pile of tiny reactors).

Its the same reason that the wireless nodes aren't bounty objectives. (at one time they where on the cube D and where bounty objectives and it was painful)

Thanks for your feedback.

hmm, idk if this is considered a bug but the missile mechanics have changed, and it might be preferable to match those mechanics

BenK

YAreyaREdAzE

You had two posts.

Post 1
Do tell how another person has managed to break the game with my mod...

Post 2
Missile mechanics? They have changed? How have they changed, do they have a guidance system that doesn't always overshoot the target? (I not a little salty about that or anything).

tonk

HEY IS THIS STILL WORK ON 0.15.13a

Altraxia

tonk Yes it does,at least for me

BenK

tonk

Hello Tonk
Wow Its already on 14a, Yes it seems to be working. Generally I don't update unless there is an issue or I want to add something.

Edit Hyper drives are not working in 14a (they eat power all the time)
A fix will be out soon.

Thanks Altraxia for helping Tonk out.

Thanks for your concern.

BenK Look, I understand this isn't the greatest thing to hear and I understand you may be young, so I'll try to be polite (please understand I'm a little annoyed about this).

- Cosmoteer rules

Kindly remove my ships from your mod. I humbly request no renames and no new paint jobs. I asked for them to be removed in my original post and I will reiterate that I want them removed.

See below for comparisons between ships. I can also prove my ships are the original ships if necessary.

(ship name in the mod: Fr_GLE Heavy Escort)

(ship name in the mod: Ds_Fast Attack A)

(ship name in the mod: Hc_Rebel A)

(ship name in the mod: Hf_Rebel Missile A)

BenK using junctions wrong
it defeated all the Lucifers no sweat

that is a lot of nullspace, just 1 railgun, 1 shot

here's the railgun developed in BH

(missiles) they have changed a lot

BenK

YAreyaREdAzE
While I don't know how you got the ship to pay you for itself.
The railgun exploit is old news at this point I have figured ways to fix it, maybe, but they require a significant amount of work.

Did you read my Post???
Because it looks like you didn't (I am trying to meet you half way or further and you are repeating the same thing over and over).

If you had then you would know that I am planning on changing the paint job (because its yours)
I am planning on changing the ship names (because they are partially yours)

By your own admission the shape is similar but not the same.
The internals are completely different if you don't believe me have them do battle.

At what point does a ship become something you can claim as your own???
The only reason they haven't been changed is I am waiting on my update because of you.

How do you add pictures like that (I have to upload them).

Finally claiming age over anyone is nothing more than a form of bullying especially in this context as it has no bearing other than to theoretically shore up your claim.

Ultranova
have you found any other ships that looks like they were made by other players?
surly there’s not just yours in there
