Kroom is it compatible with 15.9

      Raider I have no issues playing it on 15.9

          Kroom changed the title to Kroom's Forge (0.15.9).

            Kroom I'm working on a few other ideas for fighter weaponry actually. For example, your fighter missiles are quite badass with the ability to place the launcher wherever. BUT - if you make the launcher non-rechargeable, all of a sudden this becomes a very limited weapon. Some other weapons can have limited ammo too. 1x1 reactor can produce a different kind of energy and provide it to all parts in a fairly wide area automatically (kind of like the cockpit does, but even more efficiently). However, this energy could only be used for to power fighter parts/weaponry.

              Having a strange interaction/bug with the shields, perhaps as a bug with the new shield linkers.

              Sometimes the arc shields (the non-360 degree shields) will refuse to fully charge -- even when there is more than enough power to be fed into them, and nearby shield linkers are fully charged. I suspect it may be that the shield linkers are actually draining power from the arc shields to power the other linked shielding units.

              Here in this example, you can see that the front shields are not totally charged. Any additional power fed will immediately be drained, keeping the shields permanently at about 75% charge. This effect only seems to happen if the shields are lowered in combat and then are raised again, and if the shield linkers are disabled, the shields seem to be able to be recharged again.

              It's a very odd occurence, and I'm not sure if it is a bug or me just improperly using and/or not understanding the shield linkers. Even more interestingly, this does not occur with the phase shields.

              Thanks in advance!

                Astrum Yes, that's a problem with the shield linker, i will try to fix it when a have the time to look at the code again.

                  Kroom I have a problem with the platform for hunters, normally It carries the moored vessels in ftl, however it does not work.

                      KaeligRoperhe Can you check if the any of the ships are invulnerable? (the landing pad and teleporters doesn't work with invulnerable ships, i will fix that for the next update).

                          Kroom None of my ships were in invulnerable od; it was in bounty hunter, with the test platform.

                              I was using one of my old docking ships and the secondary ship didn't want to go onto the Docking bays and it kept just trying to stay away from the old ship. Please help.

                              kringeking06 Do you have collision avoidance turned on in your settings? That is the most likely culprit.

                                  Astrum ttings?

                                  I will check Thx

                                    kringeking06 That seems like the collision avoidance is on, try turning it off or using the X command.

                                        Kroom ooohhh....that's why it behaves so weirdly. I used to just switch to manual controls and carefully position the ship myself, thinking "tis a very good idea, Kroom, but it takes so much time and effort that it's really not feasible" 😄

                                            Kroom changed the title to Kroom's Forge (0.15.10).

                                              i think there is a bug with the small cockpit, load this ship with the storage empty and watch how much time the crew on the left take to fill the storage compared to the right, it seems the cockpit is eating power instead of moving it around

                                              kwhwwymwn Thanks, i will fix if for the next update.

                                                  How do I use the repair droids?

                                                    Im very confused on how to use the landing pad and the repair droids.

                                                      Ktopian

                                                      Kroom To dock ships, first, place them over the center of the landing pad, then select the ship with the landing pad and press the docking button at the bottom left (disable collision avoidance in gameplay options or use X key when issue the move order so the ship dont try to avoid be close to your landing pad.).

                                                      The Repair Droids only works on your own ship, use Control to select the Repair Droid Bay and then use the Target Weapons Button ("T" shortcut) to target the part that you want to repair (it can only repair damaged parts not destroyed ones).
