can you make a lamba class shuttle mobile base?

Would love if you fixed that. Other than that these things a pretty awesome!

I probably didn't set it as persistent

Just so you know the Destroyer seems to de-spawn when you get too far from it. The others might do so as well, I don't know yet.

I don't own CityScaper, I barely even know what it is, and I'd rather not make this reliant on mods that add content like that.

You should include this into CityScaper as an addon, so you dont have to spawn it with cheats.

I believe you also need to select a valid location for the module on the right.

Do note that the Modular Fortress may cause your game to crash due to an issue it has.

i interact with it and select a part but all it says is no location selected

It's spawned the same way as the other vehicles, with a vehicle controller.
You expand it by interacting with the core.

how do you select a location to use the modular fortress?

now imagine this but with FU's byos ship building system lol (id imagine that would be pushing the limits of what can be done in starbound)

If all of this mobile bases will be available at Penguin Pete or a Spaceship, i will download this mod and leave a 5 star rating now !

probably a better idea

How about "Moving Bases" for the mod's rename? That describes the mod to a T I feel.

Rusted Warfare's Flying Fortress is quite different from this one, quite obviously
if any inspiration at all was taken, it is the name alone
I like Supreme Commander's units more

Wait, actually?
it's very comparable to Rusted Warfare

it is not

Flying fortress? Surely this mod is not based on any form of oxidized battle

only took completely remaking the functionality of an item grid

with nothing but individual slots

because Starbound's Lua API is limited

he did it he F did it he made a working storage in it

Now I see the problem. It wasn't that I couldn't interact with it, it was more so that it was unclear that you have to click the area you want a module to come off of when in the menu. Sorry about that. Now I got it figured out.

It's more particularly interacting with the core opens it and then closes it. If memory serves correctly too, I also get put into the control seat when I attempt to do so.

Try interacting with the core
if that still doesn't work, check game's local files/storage/starbound.log and see if there's anything related to "core.lua", "module.lua", or "modularfortress.lua"

there's also a very serious bug with module placement that occasionally causes the server to consume basically all system resources, effectively freezing the whole system, and I have no idea what's causing it

I think the modular fortress needs to have some fixing or it's a issue on my side. I can't seem to access the module menu for it.

I really like that it seems the inventory is saved for the flying fortress when you put it away, I might try to use this a lot with friends

Thanks. Good to know :D

it despawns if you leave and come back

they do despawn when you leave them

spider fortress has 50000 health, flying fortress has 250000

(I spawned it without the controller)

Ok idk if they despawn so do they or did i just loose it somewhere?

How much health does the fortress have? I spawned it in one of my builds :(

I should also consider renaming this when I do that, since this won't really just be spiders anymore

yes

I should probably update this, next update adds a bigger Flying Fortress and improves the aim of the turrets as well

do the turrets automatically attack?

awsome job

no

and if I do make a vehicle that can have things be added to it, it's gonna have a system of being modular

Question. can we add things to the spider fortress?

This is SOO awesome can it be made a little faster though?

i love it

I have no idea what that is but ok

its Itward from Fran Bow

Reminds me of the old classic "mecharachnid"

:D

Awww okay. Still, well done and thanks for the info!

It is unfortunately not possible to perfectly perform moving things in an efficient way, simply due to how the game works. It might be possible to make moving tiles, but that'd still be pretty inconvenient and probably pretty laggy too

I agree with @Rex Anivius - hope you evolve it with a total mobile mini-base mod.

If this ever evolves into a mobile base mod where you can place stuff down and operate either as ground or air vehicles, this would be one of the best!

they have a metal gear ? HERE ?

I was actually thinking about something like this but instead a flying vehicle that has self defense turrets that auto target enemies, while having a function to go into the "interior" to have the functions of a ship but on the move, instead of like how the game ports you back to the planet start, I really like this tho as it gets close to what I'm looking for, a wholey mobile base that I can bring to the planet's surface

I'll watch this mod's development with great interest.
