Claw262 If I were Northerner, I would give you this advice for the frame ship:

"Sadly creativity isn't enough to add your ship into the mod. Against all opponents it died, but it stayed alive for the full five seconds! Don't give up, I'm sure you can make work!"

😂

After Nov 26th i will not be accepting anymore ships until i can get caught because the amount of ships i have to test is and add is literally overwhelming (which is normally a good thing lol) i resume accepting ship submissions after I get the next wave of weapons done. Sorry peeps!

Northerner You know that you just gave me a reason to spam some designs before 26 November, right? 😉

    Alpha oh I'm expecting spam but at least now i can catch up and test all the designs... For awhile anyway

    Edit: (I forgot the price and don't want to open cosmo, also, gotta run, back to Exile with me!)

    I am here with a new design, and I have discovered a large bug which might be causing issues with railguns combined with other weapons.

    First the ship:

    Price: 2374400

    This is the Doomsmith, using superior tactics (being the enemy getting rammed by medium ships, then getting swarmed by smaller ships.) he is able to vanquish the mighty Mjolnir... If the AI is set correctly...

    Look at the difference:

    Normal AI:

    Now the arena AI:

    And this is not a random luck factor, the Doomsmith always wins on normal, while Mjolnir always wins on arena. On arena AI for some reason the rail-Doomsmith decides to aim it's small lasers (I put them there against small ships trying to flank) at the enemy instead of it's railguns.

    I think you might want to look into this.

    (Edit: Arena AI sometimes works as intended, but not always.)

    Northerner I present to you a new, more odd looking design, this is Encircled!

    image https://i.imgur.com/qrYfIhB.png
    Price: 4983300

    If it doesn't kill you by burning your eyes out with it's horrible look, it certainly will with it's alpha strike! (Which seems to last until most weapons have been blown up. I'm not sure if you can call it an alpha strike if it barely reduces in strength...)

    Alpha ... i like it interesting but cool... hard to explain really.

    Since you won't be accepting submissions after tomorrow here are a few more designs to increase your work load😉
    All of these are priced at 1,000,000.

    Thanks for the hard work and the awesome mod!

    Edit: One more ship. (Older and messier design but prob still powerful)

    Northerner Did my ship pass?

    4 days later

    Zachary No it did not, I think it was due to it being over priced and over performing compared to other ships in its price tier.

    However the ship you submitted a while ago the "Fire Swarm" did pass! sorry it took me so long to finally test it!

    I have been busy drastically changing things in Galaxy in Flames, creating new modes, weapons, and planets. Believe it or not I am not a endless well of creativity so I need your help! Mainly with themed ships for the new worlds, so without dragging this out any further.

    I will be accepting ships (in limited number) however the criteria is based on aesthetic rather than combat performance and must be based on this theme.

    The theme for the ships I will be accepting is "heavy construction/heavy mining"
    Bonus points will also be awarded to stations they will also get even more points if they look like they are constructing/breaking down ships or mining.

    The submitted ships will get bonus points for using ion beam weapons.
    There is no upper limit to the amount of ships I will be accepting. (unless it gets ridiculous)

    (A station is generally a large craft with very little propulsion and weapons on all sides)

    An example of the aesthetic and me not being able to do it justice

    (I think most people think this mod is dead so lets see how this goes.)

    Northerner Thanks.

      Northerner (I think most people think this mod is dead so lets see how this goes.)

      Sad but true

        Cosmopyr Wow those are incredible! Thank you for submitting them!

        Northerner
        Well, I'm having exams now, which means I won't have as much time on my hands. But hey, people need to take a break sometimes!

        I'll try to make some more aesthetic ships (which is not easy for me, for I'm not a painting master.).
        Perhaps you could add different "mining factions"? They would be separated in different planets (like arena worlds), and only ships from their "faction" will appear there.

        2 questions:
        1) Are the ships still partially tested on performance?
        2) Have you tested Cataclysm (my ship) yet? Just curious 🙂. If you haven't tested it yet don't even bother answering and I'll be patient.
