Forgive me if I'm being stupid...

I bought my first carrier (griffin) in LU but I'm struggling to adapt to it/use the commands properly, so I installed this and the menu is fantastic - a lot of very useful (repair bay...) tools/commands. But I only seem to be able to see Carriers that I am not currently in? So is there no way to be able to use ADS for my own Griffin whilst I am flying it? As the commands seem much more straight forward and simple than using the Carrier Command system in the player console. Not to mention I have to keep changing ships to use the repair bay :(

ADS is about automation and some internal commands would be incompatible/weird if applied to the player ship. ADS is huge and I really don't want to make two versions: one for the player ship, another one for his other ships; the major feature of ADS being the Automated mode.

No problem, I would never ask you to make anything specific ^^ just trying to understand the limitations and uses.

So ultimately, if I ever want to repair my own fighters, I should dock it and then jump in another ship, then open ADS and use the repair bay?

Repair bay is a convenience. A little bit cheaty. Prior to that, you had to go to your Sanctuary to repair your ships.

Do as you wish :)

I want to ask "Its possible to repair the ships without undocking them, when your carrier is at your HQ?" - but I will not yet, until I am able to afford both a HQ and a carrier in my save to test it first myself xD

It will be possible in Mayhem 2.1.0 Sanctuaries, but not in vanilla HQs.

I've got a question for you ADS/Mayhem users. After 37h into Mayhem i now have a frequent desire to target stations with my carrier wings. And their homebase carriers are managed with ADS.

How do you guys usually issue an attack order against stations?
- the automated mode only reacts to ships.
- there is a manual command "clear sector". But that also seem to ignore stations
- carrier command software (attack my target) or manual commands to all docked ships don't work on ADS managed fighters

So the only solution i found was disabling ADS for all docked ships, then issue the manual attack order for all docked ships of the carrier. After the strike a manual ADS retreat order gets them back in the carrier and i can hit ADS "activate all docked ships" again. But i also have to switch the carrier from manual to automated because i used the retreat order beforehand.

All this is a bit tedious. Am i missing something? Is there an easier way with less clicks? If not, maybe an additional manual ADS command like "invade sector" (attacking everything, closest first) or "attack" (a specific ship or station) could help here.

I'm using M7 carriers so it would definitely be worse with TM's.

I'll look into it. I think that Clear sector should also affect stations.

EDIT: see this post.

Maybe Im dense, but can someone walk me through a defense grid setup?

I added an M6 to my home sector defense grid, defense grid is on (though if I toggle this, it gives me an error that "Reset Mode Activated".....)

The automatic name changing never does anything with the M6 I've added to the grid, and when I spawn a pirate in the system, the M6 does nothing.

Am I missing an "ENABLE" function? I've got the sector set to be monitored in the grid....

The M6 shows "Member" but does nothing.

The first link, Mediafire, seems to be infected with 'Ransomware'.
One person from the Korean community has been reported to have been infected with Ransomware twice, after clicking on the link.
The second link is said to be OK.

Anyone, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DOWNLOAD FROM THE MEDIAFIRE LINK until safety is confirmed.

Be careful.

You really think that if I wanted to infect you with a ransomware, I'd only do it on the first link?

NO, NO.
You are misunderstanding.
I think you do not have malicious intent.

As I said, It reported from "ONE Person of Korean community".

NOT ME.

Translation:
Red box (Mediafire) I've been infected with Ransomware twice.
I flew all the data on the hard disk.

When I try to download the Anarkis-Joubarbian Edition (ADS) 1.03 script into that address,
- The popup window opens and Ransomware runs, so I do not know the timing so fast.
- Suddenly the hard disk is busy.
- Files are encrypted.
- Randomware backup is all data backup. Format - recovery

- I think the download on the dropbox is OK ...
Back up your data for risk!

If this thing hurt your mind, I'm sorry.

But, I think, if this report is true, it could be a Mediafire server issue.

This is not virus or malware! It's ransomware! The server itself may be infected.

I wrote this for you, not for criticizing you.

Yeah yeah, don't worry, you won't hurt my mind.

Mediafire has some weird ads sometimes, like all these sh*tty hosters. AdBlock is your friend.

This ADS doesn't seem to recognize M2 Valhalla as a carrier. Is this the intent?

I don't remember the code, but yeah, it's very likely that M2s are not compatible with ADS systems.

And M7 light carriers are compatible, right?
Also, does it work fine with new 2.2 mayhem?

1.04 released.

Grid ships now use the Quantum Jumpgate Extension when available.

I just got ADS working on my brand new Segaris (Filled to the brim with Falcon's) and ran into a problem where fighters who were set to escort a wing lead would just tail the lead and not shoot.

:EDIT: I should also mention that some wings will just not even start attacking and sit around in space idle, even if the carrier they are attached to starts to fight.

:EDIT #2: I uninstalled ADS for now and my fighters are still behaving really weird, so it may be related to something else.

I have tried this mod with Mayhem 2.2.4 but cant get it to work.
Not sure if this mod is incompatible with Mayhem or if i set it up wrong.

I am only interrested in the Defense Grid.
I have a M2 assigned to ADS and a Sanctuary.
Every thing looks good so far.

But if i get an enemy responce, the ship wont attack.

Example:
M2 Ship is docked - Command is set to None
A enemy enter a sector.
M2 ship undock - Command is set to Attack M6 in Sector ...
M2 ship dock - Command is set to None

The M2 dont jump to the sector nor did it attack the enemy ship.
Tested this with M6 and M7. Every time the same.
It undocks and docks immediately. No jump, no defence.
Energy Cells are included in every ship and homebase, jumpdrive installed,
satelite in every sector.

Question is, how to setup defence grid correctly or is this Mod not compatible with Mayhem?

It's perfectly compatible with Mayhem. It requires some setup, especially forces to attack factor (how many more of your ships you need to have to attack an invader). I'm pretty sure you missed an option somewhere, there are plenty.
