dafeeeeeeeeeesh I think I'd just be easier to just put ftl on the ship at that point.

with a super carrier you can make an entire fleet without FTL drives and use them for free also FTLing frgites and cruisers for free is a lot of value (plus it looks cool to make a massive ship and dock a ton of ships in it)

dafeeeeeeeeeesh i think you can attach one ship using several hanger bays,so technically its already possible for a super carrier

dafeeeeeeeeeesh

Dumb
you can but its annoying to do and you still cant fit larger ships in

Kroom

dafeeeeeeeeeesh i will make bigger landing pads or hangars when i found a way to dock ships without so much lag.

dafeeeeeeeeeesh

Kroom
alright

Kroom i will make bigger landing pads or hangars

CursedPh4nt0m

CaptainMacHaddish Neither of those are actual bugs. Second one is caused by the way ftl currently works and the first one is caused by the landing pads funktion. It's basically an impulse emitter with limited reach and the game really doesn't like what it does to affected ships.

Kroom is aware of these problems btw:

Kroom Then how should we edit the memory decals are allowed to use?

Is that even possible?

Kroom

RedAndCosmoteer You can't, but you can delete some decals to release memory.

Echo_Arts

Kroom Okay thanks for the help

Kroom
would you be ok if i was to use the same idea of your fighter weapons that allow them to be inside blocks for my mod?

Kroom

Jared Sure, why not.

Kroom can i use your varateck design for my fighters, my curent ones are to basic and i like robotech?

Kroom

kola2134 Sure.

When I dock ships, they still have their thrusters activated and fight back against the carrier. Is there a way to turn this off?

Catelyn

Soundbust11 turn on advanced ship controls, then you can click the button that looks like a stop sign.

Hi Kroom, amazing mod. I really liked the anti-spam you made with the 4x4 turrets but, overall, I feel your weapons too much underpowered compared to vanilla. I know this mod is aimed at small fighters, but the weapons range (all weapons) are WAY too short. I modded your mod in a way I can use it on all my ships design.

4x4 twin cannon: (not the flak) range 200 (like the vanilla large cannon). And increased the firing arc a bit to 220°
laser, plasma, tachyon and blablabla: set the range to 150 (like the vanilla laser)
torpedo: kept the speed but bumped the acceleration a lot, increased the range to 200 and gave it a TINY bit of guidance (10d, I think). The ammo cost and reload speed is already lethargic enough to keep it balanced.

thank you for your hard work and sorry for my English.

Kroom

My idea of fighters is that they can do a lot of damage but in a short range. The two roof weapons are supposed to be used against fighters instead of big ships, thats why the small range and I think that increasing the range will make them very op, the twin cannon for example is a very accurate weapon with AOE (like missiles), and can be placed behind armor. In my experiencie while playing the only thing that keep them not so op is the short range.

not sure if this mod is active still but..

Really liking the mod, tho im not great at making small fighters, i do like making carriers with smaller ships inside them! so i was wondering, are bigger hangars planned maybe?

kola2134

The_Bloodnaught the mod went up not long ago it is still active or just inactive because of modder irl problems

Kroom

The_Bloodnaught not sure if this mod is active still but..
