[MOD]DeadAir Mods pt2

[siath70]

I was sitting here playing my game with your mods and enjoying myself when I had a thought, they're dangerous I know but I had to come here and share it.

On your dynamic war mod, is there a way to make it so if the Xenon get so much stronger military wise than the strongest military, say Xenon is 1.5 X stronger than the Terran. The factions get reset to neutral until the Xenon threat is dropped back down to below the strongest military?

This way it allows ships to travel and traders to send supplies without getting killed by the other factions, of course I'm not talking about pirate factions and such, just the main factions.

Then after the Xenon are pushed back reset the standing the way they were? Maybe send a signal for all military ships to return to friendly space and give them so much time to do so.

I think it would simulate the factions coming together to keep the Xenon at bay.

I mean it could be done different way too, like the split banding together themselves to take care of their Xenon problem, or Paranid... So you could have times when a splitered faction works together to push the Xenon back after the Xenon push in and take so many sectors or such from them.

Anyway just a thought.

Quick question, I noticed when I use the Jobs that there are no AUX ships. Did you remove those from the Job files?

If so is there a way to add them back in? Don't know why but it kind of tweaks me not seeing them being used.

They are removed because they are a terrible buggy mess and waste of cpu. Once I find that they don't cause constant debug errors with ships never undocking/docking then I'll put them back in.

I was testing whith this its look like auxilary can handle only one order if u send 2 ships on auxilaries they get stuck but if u smart guy make some delay between orders may be ,it will work becouse they work normaly but never give them more than ONE order.

TaterTrader/DeadTater has a weird issue where multiple different "deadtater" traders can find the same trade offer/route at the same time, but obviously only one can take it, so they all rush to the job, but only one gets the goods then the rest are hit with "failed to execute : not enough goods at station" etc, then they undock and start searching again.

Easiest way to see it happen is set off 5-10 traders at same time with same parameters set, and at least 3-4 of them will try to grab the same job and fail.
Can also happen just randomly if two or more traders happen to be "searching" for a job at the same time.

Not sure if this is something solvable as its technically multiple scripts running all finding the same job at the same time I guess?

Yeah it's a limitation of the offer system where it doesn't update until the next frame. I'll put my very inelegant solution from tater into deadtater since my fancy one doesn't seem to be working. Expect a patch later today.

oh nice so tatertrade has a workaround for this already? I love how 'fast' deadtater is comparatively.

Yeah i built a non perfect fix into tater a while back. I didn't upload the fix for deadtater yet because I'm having issues solving it since the script is so fast lol. The next patch will at least come with a feature (very minor feature but i love it so far)

Hi, I want to start a new Game and I would like to know if DeadairWare is reasonably compatible with 5.1.
I do not necessarily need a perfect version, but it should be playable
Since I pay a lot of attention to the economy in the game, this is one of the most important mods.

Yes, ware is updated.

Nice, thank you very much. I will pull it from git and install it.

Whats wrong whith titans and their icons ? They change their icon whith everything whats near them,i dont understand it ,same like some accelerators. Another thing u can see the Sun thru them but not tru other ships its strange that behaviour of titans .any explanations please ?

[siath70]

I found a bug I think with Dead Trader.

I bought some ships for trading in Terran space, set them to just trade.

The way the fighting and stuff is happening I blacklisted The Void and Getsu Fune. Figured they would trade in the Terran spaces. Have stations uncovered in the Terran sectors and Antigone Memorial. I have not uncovered the back way through Silent Witness systems to get around the blacklist of The Void.

The trading ships however can see there is another way, they try to go trade in the outside sectors, like Argon and paranid space. But because there is no way through, they just sit there at the dock set to go trade at factories they can't reach because the gates haven't been uncovered.

Hi,

Currently only using Tater Trader from your mod list, but like the sound of the additional Factions. I'd be using the VRO version, can these mods be introduced to a game in progress without issues? I have all the DLC's, if that makes any difference at all. I've been rather static when it comes to the mods I use for quite some time now, so feel like branching out a little.

Cheers.

I tried to make it so they can be added but haven't tested. A lot of people have asked me and nobody has ever said if it works. I definitely recommend new game and keep in mind, they are balanced around my god/jobs mod. I'm running 120 fps in space after 24+ real game hours but the start is around 90.

Thanks for the reply... I will have a ponder, I may restart but I'm at a good point in my current game, so might keep it going a little longer. Will read up on each of your mods so I understand better how they might work together, alongside VRO, XR Ship Mod and Ship Variation Expansion...as well as Faction War and FOCW.

Interested in how your jobs aid performance. I generally don't have performance issues other than during large battles - it's all about what's going on In Sector, rather than the universe as a whole it seems.

My jobs are not designed to increase performance over vanilla. It puts ships in better locations and makes them more efficient to offset the universe actually being active. The game will be much more lively with my mods.

As to XR ship, use at your own risk because that mod is not designed to be compatible with other mods.

SVE also has quite a few bugs.
