Dumb there is a wide variety of difficulty modes in this mod that cater to players of all skill levels! So, even if you have trouble with the built in bounty hunter mode, you can still have fun with this modified version!

Northerner You forgot reverse thrust on your ships.
There is no (if there is, it's almost unnoticeable) space-drag on ships now, and thrusters don't have lateral anymore.
EDIT: Oops, it's only on some of your ships that you forgot reverse thrust.

    Northerner changed the title to Galaxy in Flames v0.3.0 (Alpha).

      ImNotLaffng Pizza Roll 9000 passed the tests ill add it to the mod with your name on the folder

      Lafiel Galaxy in Flames is actually ABH compatible! I did not actually have ABH downloaded so i didn't know if it was compatible or not but put it as non compatible in the description just in case it wasn't. But i downloaded ABH and there is no comparability issues between Galaxy in Flames and ABH as it stands. Also awesome mod btw

      Northerner Thanks for checking.
      Thanks. It's a bit troublesome to keep up right now with all the changes and needed rewrites left, though.

      Northerner changed the title to Galaxy in Flames v0.3.3 (Alpha).

        0.3.3 Update:

        • Updated some designs like Redeemer to have better stamina
        • Added ImNotLaffng's Pizza Roll 9000 ship to bounty mode
        • Several days of trying to get weapons to work just to get dunked on by emitter bs

        fixed emitter issues (finally) should be able to get the fist couple of the new weapons done sometime next week!

        If anyone has some ships they think are up to snuff and want to see if they make it into the mod feel free to post them!

          Northerner
          I'll start making a few ships soon if possible, but I haven't played the game in a long time. I started back using this mod to help get back into building strong ships. It has helped me a great amount so far. I'll eventually start making ship designs to see if they past the tests. Also great mod btw.

          Jabenyezaa Thank you, I'm glad you like the mod! I hope the mod continues to help you improve! I cant wait to see the ships you post!

            Hi. It is really help to build better ships, bcs default is too simple. Also, i make some ship designes and hope that you add this ships into your mod.

            I want to get this mod, but I am also planning to add my own bounty hunter difficulties in my main mod, so I also don't want to run into errors using both of them 🙁

              germheh I'm glad you are finding that the mod helps you build better ships and thank you for your submissions! However, only one ship "passed" testing would be your railgun ship call "Skat" however it (and all of your other ships) are lacking adequate fire extinguishers and most of your designs have none at all. A more proper ratio for fire extinguishers is 2 per every 6 man crew quarters and 1 for every 2 man crew quarters. You also have double or triple the amount of reactors necessary and your designs suffer badly from this as nearly all of them chain explode. My advice would be to add more fire extinguishers and less reactors and to space your reactors further apart.

              If you get a better balance of these elements on "Skat" then i shall consider it for addition into the mod. I appreciate your submissions and hope that this mod continue to help you improve your ship building in Cosmoteer!

              Hello. The fact is that ships like "tank" were built at the highest level of complexity in your fashion. Therefore, ships losing in battles even small pieces of the hull were inefficient, since the cost of repair was often equal to the reward for the ship. Because of this, the emphasis was placed on the shields, which reduced the damage to a minimum. Because of weak armament, many reactors had to be put on shields so that they could regenerate faster than damage. But because of the high cost, I could not close the whole ship with shields, so I had to put up armor. Next, I ran into the problem of maneuverability, because of my weight it was very easy for me to get out of the gun, so I had to figure out how to increase maneuverability not to the detriment of weapons. And then I got the idea, and is it possible to keep the activated boosters endlessly? It turned out that yes, but this will require a whole reactor for each engine. However, there was nothing to do, so I put this system, and even won, because the weight has increased slightly, the price was also not too big, and the speed increased much. The only downside is the explosion, but I did not care, just because I would have rebooted again if I was damaged, so it did not affect anything. On fire extinguishers it was all the same, because if armor penetrated, then all the reactors also exploded, so they were not very necessary to me.

               So a compact and maneuverable "fighter" came out, destroying the enemies or practically without damage, or immediately exploding, ideally suited for this regime. Probably, it will still be superfluous in your fashion because of too low a survival rate. With him, I reached the level of difficulty "major" and could not move forward because of a lack of fuel. I hope in the next updates you will increase it a little, because, as for me, it is almost impossible to move forward.

               About the rest will answer a little later, so the story stretched out.

              germheh Can you be more specific with what difficulty you are playing on? Just from my experience so far i have excess fuel on all difficulties and have beat the game on "Real Tough Guy" with out much in the way of problems as they pertain to fuel. However that said if it is just fuel you are having a problem with just fuel then i will increase the amount is rewarded as I don't care as much about fuel rewards as warp efficiency is not a factor in tournament play.

              However when it comes to the cash rewards, the higher difficulties are very grindy and i see it being a struggle to advance in very hard and impossible. What I have done to win in the higher difficulties is grind on low level worlds for a bit until i can comfortably beat ships in the higher difficulty worlds. The rail gun ships are supposed to limit the effectiveness of that strategy but it still works if a bit boring.

              All that said i will see about making some changes to the difficulties, and appreciate your feedback! Your back and forth with you designing your ships is what i was hoping to achieve with this mod, that i feel the base game is lacking!

                Well, I will clarify with what I have problems. At the very beginning of the game, I can not kill most ships "forehead", so I have to dodge tactics. But it is not always possible to destroy all the ships purely physically at the first level of difficulty in the beginning, because they regenerate the shield more quickly than you do damage. Because of this, you have to leave with not completely cleaned sectors. So far, everything rests on money. Further, when you learned to destroy all ships on the first level and the periodically appearing ships of the second, you go to the second level because of a lack of fuel. The only way out is to leave the ship the same, and again farm the small levels so that when you move to the second level, you are immediately "strong." And so every time, you sooner or later face the problem of fuel, and your exits - to ease the ship a little, and go to clear light levels, farm money, or go on to kill every second ship, but you got enough fuel. If you increase fuel from each enemy at least 15-20 percent, then when you move to the next levels, you will be more prepared, and it will be easier for you to kill ships. It practically does not affect the level of skill, as the reward and repair will not change, but will reduce the need for a special grind at low levels, which gets very boring, and because of this the game becomes boring. Therefore, I believe that you need to increase the amount of fuel at maximum complexity.

                 I would also like to say about the "Skat", I do not know how to reduce the number of reactors near the shields, since I already think 6 reactors for 14 shields with a small number. As for the reactors in the beginning, I can drop you the original version of the ship, worth exactly 1,000,000, but with weakened engines. And besides I would like to ask what you did not like these ships, what is wrong with them?
