Does this play nice with Expanded Starbases?

Can confirm, it's fixed)

@InvIzIble

Apparently. It seems that the game generates default designs before game-start event, therefor global_flags set by mods will not yet exist. I missed that one.

Should be fixed now.

could this mod or the ESC be the reason for NSC starbase reactor(100k energy) being replaced with vanilla reactors for starbases?

The enhanced zeropoint reactor seems to take priority even when it has less power than other available reactors....

Thank you

MOD UPDATE:

- Update for the new version of the main mod
- Update NSC reactor overwrites to match their new outputs

oh, okay then

That all not big issue, all works, need just "reset" design and replace modules, not big deal. And modded shipset, won't make any issue, it's just...don't know how it say, but after pressing clear project, and all modules in needed places. Don't worry, it's just like side effect after patch

I don't have such an issue with the "model" modset of ESC + overwrites + NSC (+ UI overhaul). I can inspect your error log to see if something messes with component slot there.

Also, you're using a modded shipset. Is the component shift issue still present if you launch the game without any? Just vanilla shipsets.

For context issue:

Thx for update, now it's work, but with update u will need recreate designe of ships. Hyper-Engine in Reactor slots, sub-light engines in hyper-engine slots, sensors in sub-light engines and etc. Only NSC battlecruiser won't mess up.

MOD UPDATE:

- Update for the new version of the main mod
- Fix a bug with NSC reactors

Hm... I'll take a look

seen's now with that overwrites, at least NSC reactor not pickable in designer, without it they pickable on 3.14 not seen's that problem

That's actually very helpful, thank you!

Though, that brings to mind the second part of my question, and maybe you might have an idea of why this is happening.

Does merging the tech trees do something that prevents certain ships from having access to certain reactor types?

Like destroyers just not allowing fission reactors? Or do you suspect it might be that the Origin is unlocking a vanilla technology, and not the modded destroyer?

basically this takes the mod's stuff, which are largely sidegrades and then upgrades to vanilla parts, and makes them mandatory upgrades start to finish, instead of side options, so you Must engage with the content from it at some point.

So, what does this mod do exactly? Because I don't really understand what merging the tech trees does and the description is a little vague to idiots like me.

And the reason I'm asking is because one of the origin mods I'm playing with unlocks the destroyer tech early, but they have no reactors, and the reactor isn't even there. If I unlock all the technologies then some of them become available, (But I can't check them all because i'm still waiting on the UIOD update for the ship builder.)

If I remove this, everything functions just fine. The only reason I included it is because it's been in every collection I've ever played with, so it seemed important to add. (No offense intended)

Thank you very much!!

Updated for Stellaris 4.0

it hasn't been updated yet.

tomorrow, since I'm not pushing an update at 4am on a workday

This mod is borking the Deep Space Cidatel's components.

Hey, love your mod.
The 00_utilities_sensors.txt file is missing the variables below. This causes a lot of errors in the log (and probably problems with building bioships, though I haven't checked).

@cost_fauna_1 = 8
@cost_fauna_2 = 16
@cost_fauna_3 = 24
@cost_fauna_4 = 32

MOD UPDATE:

- Update for new version of the main mod
- Add support for Vengeance Sections Expanded and Kurosections Expanded

does this work with NSC?

I'll try again to reproduce your issue tomorrow, but right now in the test runs I did I've had no issue with creature designer that would prevent component placement or stop creature components from being added to the list of possibilities

I have no idea either, all I know is that when I removed your mod, it started working. I am not using any other mods that do anything to ship components, no am I using NSC.

@RedRapture, a quick test once I actually figured out how to access space fauna (still have no idea where to get gravity snares, so console + debug menu it is): I can add vanilla bio components onto creatures without issues. running ESC + CP, so no idea why it didn't work on your end.

@RedRapture, I'll have to look into that.

Meanwhile



MOD UPDATE:

- Fix vanilla issue with bio-sensor upgrades

While you're fixin stuff, I don't know if it was this mod or the core ESC NEXT but it broke the ability to put components onto Space Fauna. Found out because I deactivated these two mods and suddenly it worked. I will sadly have to do a new game because Nova doesn't have hyperdrive, but I figured I'd let you know so that when it's fixed I can reactivate the mod.

@焱淼 , I'll push the sensors fix either later this weekend, or when I manage to fix the computers issue. That one is more important.

STARBASE_PRIMARY_REACTOR is an overwrite to NSC overwrites, so I'd rather not change it beyond what I myself need from it. But I'll take a look at that one when I have time.

The upgrade for "BIO_SENSORS_3" should be "BIO_SENSORS_4" instead of "BIO_SENSORS_3", and this is an error that the official has not fixed.

In "STARBASE_PRIMARY_REACTOR", perhaps only "@NSC_GrandCitadel & @NSC_SolarStronghold" are necessary? Maybe it's because I haven't used the NSC module, so its icon doesn't display, which is strange.

3.14 compatibility?

Oops, thought this was the main ESC mod. I'll repost there.

I've noticed that the titan auras included in this mod only apply to regular titans and not paradox titans. I can probably edit the mod to include apply them myself, but seems like an oversight.

@NHunter
In the description it says overwrites file "nsc_reactors.txt" but the file is called "00_nsc_reactors.txt" (the file is overridden correctly but wrongly called in the description)

...steam is being slow and apparently go stuck on verification process. can't really do anything about this... but fix is up there somewhere

okay, found it. Not sure why I didn't see that one. will push update soon.

@NHunter
Dont know if you check here everyday, but...
3.12.5 patch released (checksum 9a6f)
3.12.5 PATCH NOTES

Improvement

...
Nanite deposits with non-zero available quantity below 1 now appear in galaxy and solar system views
Nanotech empires will no longer receive ships every 5 years, and will instead gain an equivalent amount of nanites with which to build ships. They now have access to the Interdictor ship, a battleship alternative with a fixed nanite cost that can use torpedoes and hangars.
This is the battleship I am talking about.

@NHunter
I think recent several weeks, the dev just update the game. They gave us a nano_interdictor as battleship for nano tradition player, it takes 8 ship pop not 4. I just double checked with the vanilla version, the interdictor still exist even all mod turned off. Instead, ship design in ESC save disappeared, that means the entire ESC mod series did not cover this new ship type.
If this mod is on, the interdictor battleship can not have reactor and engine installed. I click on the slot, there is no components show up. If turned off, I found the ship can only use the vanilla components, not ESC components while the other ship still can.

@yuevolution ,

graygoo_interdictor ship_size is listed under cruiser-size reactors/thrusters/computers in ESC. The ship_size is marked as "is_designable = no" in the vanilla game and the default design of it spawns correctly with all utility components in place. (using minimal test setup of ESC + submods + UI mods)

Though I presume you're talking about something else. A bit more info on what's going on in your game?

hm... I'll take a look. Didn't see anything in patchnotes that would indicate a break.

@NHunter
Hi the new version of stellaris give us the nanites interdictor.
Your mod does not work with the battleship, there is no engine or reactor for it.
Would you please give us a hotfix with it?
I tried turn off all the mods, and found it is this one cause the issue.

Lord El-Melloi II is right

Vanilla reactors (I to V) for cruisers and battleships are pulling values for NSC ships, even without having NSC installed, leaving vanilla cruisers and battleship with too much power.

I think thrusters have the same problem but didn't have time to check.

Thank you for the update. For whatever reason the reactor duplication with NSC3 is back

This might have to be slightly updated for the Cosmos Crisis in the Machine Age DLC

@Ghost what mods were causing the various issues with this mod?

The name of the variable doesn't matter (as long as it doesn't overwrite another variable). It's the value (defined either in the same file before variable is used, or somewhere in /common/scripted_variables) that matters.

And a quick search through my error log showed no errors related to NSC starbase variables.


@NSC_GrandCitadel = "starbase_stronghold" # Grand Citadel
@NSC_SolarStronghold = "starbase_headquarters" # Solar Stronghold

these have the same values as ship_sizes for NSC starbases as defined in <NSC>/common/ship_sizes/nsc_starbases.txt

The error being that the upgraded starbase has no weapons, armor or shields haha because it has no power core! was funny.
