@N00B @Argon I have tested all turrets, weapons and shields, all parts use the Xenon like wares, make sure you are using the "Xenon Like" build method in your global orders and your station build methods.

I wanted to test this mod on its own without any other mods.

@N00B @Argon what other mods are you using ?

Large-scale guns and shields cannot be built. Incorrect resources are entered. Please fix this as soon as possible. Because that's not how XL ships work at all. :(

And How works the S Miner?

L Station shields cannot be built with silicon and ore; they require field coils and shield components.
This appears to be a bug in the mod.

Мод работает не правильно, нет нужных ресурсов для постройки причала и верфи турелей и т.д., естественно армию не построить!

would it be possible to change the stats for the Xenon H to make it a builder ship, no reason it cant be a combat builder lol

Hello. Can you tell me how to start the xenon?

@☣Bukkakeneer☣ yes, your explanations are correct.

To help with any potential questions from people starting the mod (dev can correct me):
1. Use crew from your builders for initial ship traders/managers
2. Build storage in plan build won't show correctly, check build storage trade offers to see what's actually still needed. Nothing needs more than the 3 resources unless you have a mod conflict
3. No, you can't buy things from the xenon shipyards/wharfs, you have to build your own stuff. They will buy resources from your stations if you don't have a self supply trade rule setup, but the money isn't really needed unless you plan on befriending meatbags
4. To supply build storages easily, setup repeat orders on a miner for mine ore/silicon>sell to build storage>repeat for other resources (you don't need money to supply your own stuff, there's no money transfer involved with self supplying resources)

Note* if you use this mod with VRO you will need to unlock Internal generators for your ships either cheat menu or other means.

I have the problem that when the miners bring the ore to the station building storage its just getting deleted all ore just vanish when put into the storage does somebody know why?

**** Well ... i think i'm dumb :D i just forgot to set a vendor -_-'

Heyllow, i'm a bit confused about how to build ship ... i've constructed an S/M just like the regular game but the button is greyed out, just in case i've also built the xenon dock but still greyed out, maybe i missed something but if anyone can help ?

I am loving this mod, been looking for something like this on and off and finally stumbled across this one, excellently done. Would love interiors and maybe docking bays for the original ships like the I and the K but even without that I'm still loving being able to have them in my fleet.

I don't really understand how I am supposed to set up a mining loop if I don't have any money as doesn't trading with yourself require you to have some finances just so the trader/miner can sell / buy it?

Kudos to you for making this and handling all the questions

@error name Okay thank you for the clarification on that. I assumed it was the S ship that could build. Adding caution to station building makes sense given how easily they can be built.

@this guy Xenon S ships can't build, the Xenon don't need a builder. I tried to add that to the player but it didn't work. I gave the player 3 starting builders, there is no way to replace these without allying with a normal faction which should make the player more cautious when building their stations.

I noticed I couldn't make another builder and normally the Xenon S ships can build. Is it possible to make more builders?

@Trien hmm it could be possible, I'll have to check

Hey was wondering, since we have that model of the orb in the timelines, could that maybe be the xenon character?

May I ask if there are any other mods that can speed up the construction time of buildings? I have tried many times but cannot adapt to this mod。

I build a warf, Ore,Silicon and Energycells are in the station. I choose a blueprint and buid. but It won´t do anything . the Time besides the Ship in the overview is green and stays at 2 minutes

edit: the Xenon Ship manufacturing Buildings do not build Ships. I spawned in a Xenon Shipyard wit the cheat mod. it has normal manufactors. not the ones when I filter by Xenon in the station build menu

I "made friends" with the Federation before invading into the Free systems... Argons sent the fleet to find out why there are xenon ships building close to them... But I happen to be on good tearms with them... so they surrounded me with a fleet - to shoot down any ship that the Xenon make there :) It is so much fun to play around with this mod! Thanks for the opportunity to troll on such a big magnitude :)

A question. I saw that there are ships in the list of xenon warf - M0(The legendary planet killer) and the I - where and how can one learn the blueprints of these ships?

Tanks for the answer! Is it complicated to set the start region to an other region ? what files i need to edit in case?

@deezy1233 sure it should work, I checked the files it only removes the ability of xenon to build ships and stations on new start, and that doesn't include the player.

Work this mod with no Xenon (https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2287167542&searchtext=no+xenon) ... i would like to start with no Xenon at all and be the real xenon :)

EVERYTHIN WORKS! Thank you for the mod - it is perfect! Simple and perfect! I can now as a xenon conquer the galaxy and get rid of the all MEATBAGS that spoil the galaxy :D

While my Ship manufacturing was under construction the regular components showed up in logistics too.

Once they were built they went away.

Might have been the next time I loaded up the save. Either way if you're set up to use Xenon like build method then that's just a visual thing.

Roger Roger Boss! Thanks for the quick reply! Will follow your RECIPIE!

Make sure you setup up your production method to "Xenon Like", you are supposed to build your own shipyards and wharfs.

As for VRO, I will not work on compatibility with VRO since it will take too much time. I don't use VRO.

Good day.
I have a question. As i am building a m and l and xl manyfacturing - in the logistics i see all the normal components - like turret parts, claytronics and other. How am I supposed like a xenon build all the factories for it if i m tecnically not able to get the blueprints for them (i am the enemy of all races.)? So my question at this poit is: are these resources there for show or they are really required in the build? It will take a big time and effort to get any modules to be compleated.... So and another thing - the Xenon warf and shipyard can't build any ships for me - they are "missing key components" so the ships are marked red. I assume I must build the ships on my own shipyard. Is this the case? Was this intended? I only have your mod installed - no other that changes anything regarding building.

@error name

Loving the mod, for VRO some of the internal gen blueprints are missing on most ships (there are workarounds). It sucks I cannot do a custom start with this mod, the PHQ is unfortunately required otherwise Boron space is locked away and I cannot change start sectors without losing the cpu ship plot. Some of the issues (esp with other mods) can be solved with roundabout methods though :P

Really wish Egosoft got around to implementing an official xenon start so modders have more to work with and its less jank in areas.

Otherwise 10/10

Quite heavily enjoying this.

If I may, adapting some Scrap processing to the player Xenon faction would be a very welcome and appreciated addition.

I will introduce an update next week end to try and circumnavigate this issue.

@TX-1000 I am 100% sure you are using a mod that makes these xenon ships build-able in normal playthrough and that it is affecting this mod, take a look in your encyclopedia and check if you have any other building formulas for the ships/wares other than Xenon/Xenon like
https://prnt.sc/2wnN7RjnFNIf

Hi. I've X4 7.50 with all DLC's and this mod is not working correctly:
- i switched the production ty pe to Xenon like but several base structres are requiring a lot of resources, not just ore and silicon as should be.
- i can't build any shup in Xenon Shipyard or whard, they all are marking red, I can't put any engine or shield or the other module. It is inpossible to construct the own fleet.

Here are some screenshots -

If someome can help me with these issue, it will be good. Time to AI rull the x4 galaxy !

I have been looking for this kind of mod for so long thank u so much

is there a way to no have to do the "pick up your chip" mini quest at the beginning? I have way too little time to pick it up each time before the ship get blown up to bits by another faction and thus give me a free game over.

And definitely not enough time to build an entire fleet for that too?

Does it work with VRO?

@MR_FancyPants98 yes, it can be built in the XL fab.

If the H is an L sized ship. Does the XEN XL fab build it? Even though it technically isn’t an XL?

missing Teladi pilot readded

@菜又玩 Thanks for noticing, I will upload a fix this weekend

The version I'm using is 7.50 Public Beta.I don't know if anyone else is in the same situation,But once I use this mod,All civilian vessels belonging to teladi will get stuck in the dock.Including MIN and TEL, as well as the teladi civilian ships they ordered in shipyards belonging to the players.The unifying feature of these ships is that they have no captain and only crew, and after they are built, they will not take off, but will only stay in the dock and occupy more and more tarmac.Until finally there was no empty tarmac,Shut down this dock for good.And old archives cannot be safely removed after using this mod,Old archives cannot be opened after removing this mod.I've already deleted two archives that took a long time

@Makichika yes this mod is a custom start, and yes you can take over ownership of sectors by building the unique xenon defense module.

is it possible to take ownership of a sector with this mod?
