Speaking of totally awesome imbalanced starts, is the 10 starting spawns limit hardcoded into this mod, or the game?

I need opinions from who uses this mod.

Currently, this mod is heavily based on percent based stat modifier. Let's say A is a pawn with aiming delay of 100%, while B is also a pawn but with aiming delay of 200%.
An infusion with aiming delay multiplier of 95% will decrease A's delay by 5%, but for B, it would be 10% instead.

I might change this into fixed value, e.g. aiming delay offset of -5% so both A and B get same amount bonus, when I change infusion's stat modifying mechanics. I may also trash this idea, and surely won't change to this when said mechanics are not possible to apply.

I think I would prefer a mix of offsets and multipliers.

NIA - I hope you got my response to your questions.  I'd have responded sooner, but I was at DragonCon.

I was just complaining about this on stream last week!

Thanks!

Hello,

If I may ask a question: how do the trader camps work? I would like to trade with them, but don't have an orbital beacon.

They work just like the comms console, you still need the beacon to trade with them.

Forget that, what about Time On Target for mortars\howitzers?

Can you elaborate?

With multiple shooting verbs, you could simulate doing a ToT barrage with mortars\howitzers.  They take longer to set up, but drop several rounds in a tight cluster.  It is like having multiple guns on one target.

For legendary cats, perhaps Grumpy Cat could become a Thrumbo-like creation?  Beams that make you have a sad\dazed\wandering breakdown ;)

Alpha 12 update coming?

Read back a bit.  Some parts are up, droids will be awhile.

in that case, can i ask for a feature? disposable batteries to one time use emergency charge a droid that can be crafted somehow, but please be sparing on silicon, i've waited 3+ years for a usable amount to zoom by on a bulk goods trader before, no exaggerating :)

That sounds... awesome.  Double want.

I love dropping droids in with prepare carefully, and it sucks that you have to turn them off so soon...  _any_ other method of charging them is cool.

There was a lot more to the conversation, but this is basically just letting you know that you can add a lot of functionality to vanilla guns (which are very realistic) if you so desire, by giving certain weapons two verbs:

- Spears can be used in melee combat forever, and then thrown as a last resort (possibly destroyed after one use)
- Ranged weapons can be used as blunt melee weapons when an enemy gets close enough (hitting someone with the butt of your gun, for example)
- Anything else you might think of that involves one melee verb and one shoot verb

Giving a weapon two different shooting verbs doesn't work very well for whatever reason, so just keep that in mind...

And yeah! Feel free to join us on Slack :)

Just go here to get started

Ah, well that could be interesting. Though now I really want to figure out a way to give multiple shooting verbs to guns, suppressive fire anyone?

Forget that, what about Time On Target for mortars\howitzers?

I'm down.  I just hope I am allowed stream my bug searching, that makes it more fun for me.

I don't think they will allow streaming of something like this, you can wait and ask itchy though.

Specifically disallowed when you get the download.
Not even supposed to talk about it.

Do not use internal builds to make YouTube videos, and don't announce info about what's happening in internal builds.


Aww.  Otay.  Worth asking about.

How many copies of the game do I need to buy to get Corgi's added to the list of dogs that will be added?

Btw. This is my first post and your game is incredible. I've sunk more time into this game that most AAA titles that get released.

Lol! I've never interacted with a corgi but I still find them hilarious. Maybe we'll get one in. Anyway, thanks all around :)

Combat corgis!  With a 97% targetting bias to toes and feet!

Is there any way to rotate the new gun turrets? Bought an M2, but only able to install it with the interact spot facing south. Tried rotating with the usual q and e keys, but no joy.

I have the same issue with TVs when EdB UI mod is installed.

Trying it and I'm loving it! THough I can't figure out which table builds the charging pad for the droids?

Last version, Charging pads were in the Architect\Misc section, where the sunlamp is.
