like no invis frames

also teleport ability works poorly, when you teleport to hit, you still get dmg, so this ability is flawed

so if someone will make patch i will be glad

well it dont works with aimable weapons mod

I don't know. I know they shouldn't conflict, but I don't know how exactly melee aiming works, and I can't remember if I've used custom code for the primary attack which would make it not work. You're welcome to check it out though and tell people whether it works or not.

compability with melee aiming?

I can't seem to attack with the swords. Do you have any clue what could be causing this? I have the froge installed if that helps.

Would someone make a Compatibility patch for FU?

hi,i think the shutdown always release the first alt attack again and again if you empty energy by using first attack, thats a strange bug

As FU goes, you can't upgrade weapons from this mod, neither using the interface from the tricorder nor through ancient essence

I realy like your mods, they are a great addition to the game!

noice

all of them look great

Can you make this work with Melee Aiming?
If that is added, the mod goes from A to S tier

that's weird, i think they had proper tier in testing. I'll see what you can do, in the meanwhile you can do /spawnitem loib_energyblade 1 '{"level":6}', which spawns a level 6 blade (obviously change 6 for whatever)

i have one issue... how do i improve the tier
i spawn it in and only get tier 1
and due too some other mods i cant find them in chests

not bad mod

This mod will be perfect if melee aiming supported

how do you get an energy blade

I haven't really encountered any energy blades on my world... but the mod definitely looks awesome!

I love that new flip slash.

Nice mod! Works fine with FU as well. Would be nice to have an aimable version tho

it works fine

starting an FU playthrough right now
i will tell you all if they work together

lol ur pc more potato than mine
i can barely play games like trailmakers

I'll be real, test FU yourselves, my pc barely handles Starbound without any mods, let alone with a gigabyte-big expansion. All i'll say is I didn't make it intentionally incompatible, and I tried making this mod dependent on some vanilla weapon ability scripts that FU might change, but as long as they didn't modify a melee ability script into a monster behavior script it's probably fine. TL;DR it shouldn't crash, but I don't expect the alt abilities to work as intended.

Is this compatible with FU?

Not 100% sure on that, but it shouldn't cause problems, however the energy blades won't have a custom manufacturer either.

compatible with manufacturers touch?

* its compatible with frackin unicerst

ITS HERE, THE COMMENT WE HAVE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR!

Is this compatible with FU?

I apologize for writing out an essay there, but I just wanted to answer in a way that wouldn't cause further questions. I didn't mean to come off as rude there. But yeah, while I won't be making a fully aimable patch myself, someone else might.

damn, I didn't ask anyone to sacrifice their firstborn son to me... why are y'all going so hard

Fry about it

As for aimable patches - yeah, Ribs is right, it's not that hard if you know a bit of JSON; I'm not gonna make my own aimable patch as it clashes with my view of the mod, but anyone else is welcome to, as it really is just changing all the "allowRotate" values from false to true.

I've already made one of the combos (specifically combo 4; summon it by doing /spawnitem loib_energyblade 1 '{"primaryAbilityType":"loib_energycombo4"}' in admin mode) semi-aimable in places where it makes sense to be aimable (the stab animations in particular); I'm not planning on making every step of every combo aimable as i'm trying to keep my combos somewhat realistic, and arms just can't really move well in extreme up/down scenarios. I'm aware that my realism approach is quite futile in a game where you consume energy to fire real bullets from a gun, but that's my mod and my choice.

I also understand that swords aren't good for hitting enemies above or below, and that's why I made my alt abilities aimable (as much as they can be) - you have a lot more control over where you can strike with both flip slash and flying slash. Closest I'll go to fully aimable combos is maaaybe in the future making an expansion that adds more energy weapons such as shortswords.

That said, loib should totally do X because Y

Modders don't owe you anything. If you find something that's not to your liking, you should do it yourself honestly.

There should be plenty of guides to edit weapons, considering how making stuff aimable is simply changing "allowRotate" from false to true.

Is it out of the question for these all to be aimable? It's obscenely unfair for melee weapons to be unable to hit things immediately above/below them sometimes when guns can do that without issue.

So cool mod, but can you patch compatibility with "Unsheath/Ready Animation" mod please?

@eh1256890, released the patch mod. although be warned, i'm not sure if there was a better way but i basically forced compatibility with energy blades at the cost of potentially causing incompatibility with other modded weapons (specifically those that use a custom buildscript). it shouldn't be able to cause problems with vanilla or really simple modded weapons, but if there are any other mods with custom random generation scripts like mine, it might prevent them from working with the station. hopefully those are few and far between

Small update: changed the item name in preparation for the WA patch mod, and changed the rarity from Legendary to Rare

Please release the patch, color is not a problem

these are awesome!

oh, and i don't think i'll implement the custom coloring, as i'm not sure how the WA custom palettes work and don't really have the energy to comprehend them

i've did a bit of testing, and without a minor modification it doesn't work. however, once i applied the modification, it works pretty well aside from the fact that the blade's energy color is dictated by the handle (so changing the blade only visually changes it's shape). i'm not yet sure how to fix it, as i don't seem to have any mutual contacts with the creator, but if that doesn't bother you i can release a patch right now

Can these energy blades be modified with Weapon assembly mod?

@A-Vladimir I balanced them as much as I could; not sure how well, but I tried. at least the combos deal similar damage to regular rare broadswords, minus the status effects, but it's compensated by alt abilities.

@antisocialLeprechaun thank you! glad you like them
