Do you sometimes have stupid ideas for ship designs that usually don't work? (Like my almost immobile anti-kite, a total failure). I usually still try these new things out, and usually dispose of them when they don't work. But some ideas don't fail...

Most unpredictable ship I have. It's name is Split Personality for a reason 😆.

Northerner

TheRainmaker Passed! Congratulations and welcome to the mod!

Alpha Passed! The AI treats this thing like a kite but it will occasionally flip the cannons around. I like the concept too!

Northerner

Alpha Since I am putting all the "special" weapons in there own terrain tabs I need to remove them off of the player ships. You ship, The Queen, is basicly just the Retribution with modded weapons. Do you want to redo The Queen or should I just cut it?

MrDerpaDerpy

Alpha lol

TheRainmaker

Northerner
Neat ! now i will can fight against myself !
(after the ship will be added)

Alpha

Northerner You can remove the Queen, redoing it would be of little use. Perhaps I will alter the weapons from cannons to heavy blasters, but I don't think it will be as effective...

Also, my other ship Hades highly relies on the cluster missiles. I have a vanilla version, which is horribly ineffective as it isn't designed with vanilla missiles in mind. If you would like the vanilla version I can send it, but it would be a horrendous downgrade.

Northerner

Alpha please do, you can PM it to me in discord if you want.

I present the cheesiest thing I could come up with. To whoever runs into this, I am truly sorry...

(also, for those who want to rage every time they play normal bh, just add it to your built-in ships folder!)

RedAndCosmoteer

Oneye

i can expect a response:
Northerner: "It passed, but it's way too OP, so it won't be added"

Northerner

RedAndCosmoteer honestly it was something to that effect ha ha! But I'm putting in the Arena, people already know some cheesy ships are in there so I figured they should be expecting something like that

Just an amalgamation of module designs i haven't used before while taking inspiration from your ship the enveloper.

Northerner

DeletedAccount Passed! Yep just a better version of the Enveloper! (I really need to update the ships in that cost range they are awful!)

Meiko Did not pass. That ships really only needs 2 ammo factories to supply all of those cannons. It was also woefully under gunned compared to the other ships in its price range. Also how you posted the ship would not let me drag drop it into cosmoteer so I had to recreated it to test it. If you keep trying to attach the image using the attach button it will eventually attach on the 2nd or 3rd time.

Meiko

(Again couldnt attach the file like I wanted to...)
I would like to submit my reworked CarpetBomber.
Please test this one instead of the previous old version.
It now costs 185.450 Credits.

CarpetBomber

Please tell me if it passed the test and will be in the next update, I would really appreciate it.

Meiko

Northerner
I do not know how to attach them properly, pls help.
And outgunned? I tested the thing myself ai vs ai. And it destroyed almost all of the enemy ships.
Did you use my second verison the one I posted in you main thread was not optimised. I meant the one in this thread, the one with 2 Ion Bolts. If it was this version you tested I cannot understand how you tell me its beeing outgunned. I tested it myself against ships its price class (from gif and not gif) and it beat 9/10 of them.

ImTired

Meiko It has to be OP.

Northerner

Meiko you ships was priced around 180k right? The tier you probably tested your ship in was the teir with a max of ~175k so you were bumped up a tier that has a max of ~250k if you wanted to get in a tier better suited tier you need to drop around 10k in cost.

Northerner

ImTired The ships currently in GiF are actually really bad I'm updating them to be much, much better. The ship Meiko submitted was horribly inefficient. It has 5 small cannons and 5 ammo factories and the proper ratio for those cannons are 6 cannons to 2 ammo factories.

Meiko

ImTired
If it beats allmost all of the ''op'' already in the mod gif ships it is better then them= op
Sorry but I spent allot of time building it and I do not feel like beeing treated fairly.

ImTired

Meiko Perhaps I'll test it out once I am on my computer. It doesn't look too inefficient, but I'll probably have to take my own look. Best of luck to you!

Alpha

Meiko

Meiko 1 Small cannon needs 1 ammo factory

That's incorrect. That's how it works for large cannons. If placed in an efficient way 1 factory can support 2-3 small cannons.

Meiko Also what Cost = what tier?

Like @Northerner said:

Northerner you ships was priced around 180k right?

Northerner with a max of ~175k

Northerner you were bumped up a tier that has a max of ~250k

Just make your ship 10000 credits cheaper and you should be in a better price tier.

Meiko

Northerner
Ok understood.
But could I get a tip what was inefficicient?
1 Small cannon needs 1 ammo factory and 1 shield needs 1 reactor.
Also what Cost = what tier?

ImTired

Northerner (I thought those were storage, not factories... oh well. Thank you for letting me know though. I wasn't on my computer at the time and so it looked much fuzzier.)
