Some of you guys are acting like the Mod is currently playable, this mod makes the ships wepons have no damage or range resulting in my ships just running away. What are you guys mod list?

any idea when this might get updated?

Thank you @Zeiram for the fix. Also all the new psionic weapons don't have ASB effects (like Zro Launchers, Psionic Bombers, and Psionic Disruptors)

Hey man love the man been using it for some time. Just got a quick question. So i've noticed that a lot of the massive explosions (battleships for example) mostly happen when I lose a battleship, but I don't see it happen often against ai empires, do you know what could cause this? i'm guessing I have some incompatability on my end. Anyhow hope you have a good day and thanks for your time!

The problem with Autocannons is due to 2 things: missing texture definition(?) and scale value set too high on muzzle entities.

1. The line "gfx/models/combat_items/auto_cannon_diffuse.dds" not being added after texture = in the ap_ballistics text file results in not seeing autocannon rounds being fired.

2. Scale value for muzzle entities in the _ballistics_entities_ap.asset file is set to 4.0 and so for us it looks as if the autocannon round casings are being fired at ships. After testing lower values I found that 0.5 seems best as it properly shows casings being left behind ships and still retaining a little momentum rather than being "shot" far ahead.

Love this mod. Thank you

Recently I started getting a massive -117 ship nerf when using this with Real Space and the Ships in Scaling submod. Turned off longer battles. My corvettes had 3 power. Just a heads up.

really nice to see the mod is still around. easily the best mod in stellaris. if you ever stop modding for this game, i really hope someone picks up your work.

THis is A core mod for sure but I currently get a no range bug on weapons.

Truely a amazing mod but sadly causes a lot of dsyncs in multiplayer.

Man this mod made me buy the game, you are an artist... thank you so much for the amazing work i gave all the gifts i got, one thing, when ships approach to a starbase they slow down so much before their weapons got in range (i am only using laser).. so it takes around 10 second before they start to shoot.. it annoys me i wonder why

ive never had an issue with 1 damage ships or anything, i think its a mod conflict for certain people but i could be wrong.

@LordPhaedra Then the increase was probably caused by that stellaris update and the changes they made

It was really weird I had started a new save like a few days ago and everything was normal, had a normal battle, and then a few days into playing after 4.2 came out, my fleet power skyrocketed even though I only had 10 corvettes. And yeah this is the first time I’ve had this issue.

I have normal real space but I don’t have system scaling, and nothing I could think of that changed base ship values

@LordPhaedra Do you use any mods that change base system scaling or basic ship values?

Do you have this always, every game or only on specific shipsets or origins/government used?

Im just trying to pinpoint the potential origin of the issue here.

Really? I don't have system scale tho

The 1 damage per ship bug is always a conflict with "real space systems in scale" mod

but I shall take a look if its easy or possible to make compatible

Did the damage bug get fixed?

I wish the new psionic components from Secrets of the Shroud (like shroud torpedos and strike craft) used ASB gfx

Hello everybody.

After some initial testing with Infernals DLC: The mod is WORKING.

Obviously just like before Infernals there are still some small bugs such as maulers and autocannon graphics not working correctly but I am working on fixing those atm.

idk when that is completed because of my limited free time (been this way the past 2 years) but its coming along right now.

thnx for your patience guys :)

@Cyber Yeah, I do know about those issues, I maintain a clear to-do list lol

Thank you for donating :)

Great to see you'll be updating the mod, was concerned when you said "if" in an earlier comment just because there are def some other issues going on. Looking forward to it! My all time fav and must have mod

All good no rush

I am not at my home pc right now.

I will look at the Mod and DLC update tomorrow and see if there are more problems

Appears that this mod causes weapon components to say they do between 1 and 1 damage yet have an average damage of 1000, causing my fleet of 10 corvettes to have 46k fleet power

The autocannon texture issue has been around for a long time; please fix it, author.

Dont worry, if the mod stops working because of infernals dlc I will fix it.

This not being updated sucks, can't play stellaris without it.

is this compatible with
Extra Ship Components NEXT?

society ethics prevents me from throwing hands with the dude below me

Cool animations... but it's just that. Animations.
It really doesn't add nothing interesting to the game.

Cool stuff though.

is this ever getting updated

strike craft seem to form a pilar when fighting 1 shotting ships

To resolve issues with Ancient Strikecraft not engaging: go into this mod's local folder > common > component_templates > open !_ASB_weapons_archaeotechnology > scroll to the bottom until you find ### Strikecraft > change speed, rotation speed and acceleration to the original values of 700, 0.8 and 1 respectively > save changes.

Also consider deleting alt_strike_craft_weapons if you want to restore clear green visuals for its weapons. Found under: gfx > projectiles.

Mod works really good together with Better Ship Behaviour. The only major problem I had was related to bio ships with ancients flighters (bio version). For some reason they did 0 damage to scavenger bot and other mini bosses.

Question to the author: Fleet movement during combat is slower, how does it effect maulers? I mean they should be fast and charge at enemies, but I have a felling that they just die at a long range doing nothing. Is it expected behaviour? Sorry, but default stellaris combat is a mess, so I maybe don't understand how it should work.

@OKAWARI I had the same issue! Tried rocket corvettes but they just fired their missiles and stayed where they are until my enemy swarmed them

OHHHH MY PCCCCCCCCCCC-----

Hello author, I humbly wish to raise a question. Quoting: "More intelligent ship spacing and behaviour during battles (no more face hugging fleets).”While playing, I noticed that ships using the artillery computer still charge straight at the enemy and attack; only the carrier computer's settings are effective. Is this a bug I encountered? Thank you.“

It seems all "solutions" for strikecrafts didnt apply.
Since forever. They still not working .

I tried it, not for me. It seemed I was missing constantly with my ships.

I can't play the game without this mod working correctly :(

for anyone wondering how to solve artillery swarm issue, when corvettes just charge into an enemy, use BSB mod

@timou yes it is normal, if you dont like it you can instal : abs addon shorter battles

Is it normal for a space battle to last more than 10 in-game years? And this is with ancient mining drones

i just realised, that autocannons dont shoot at all

hello, i dont see autocannon projectiles at all

As a comment to potentially help with some mod troubleshooting, while this mod is enabled, all of my bioships have multiple stacked -54% fire rate modifiers, resulting in a fire rate below 0. All bioships have fleet power of 1 because of this.

best mod

Also experiencing the autocannon bug. Projectiles look like yellow rectangles than spin around

AUTOCANNONS still bugged. pls fix, best mod in steam
