Re: Litcube's Universe
It doesn't matter whether you build the PHQ or set up some MLCC ships first, LU is a sandbox. Shipbuilding at the PHQ isn't even needed. Since LU has so many ways to print endless money, I would even suggest just buying unequipped ships by the dozens from NPC shipyards and sending them all to your docks to be template outfitted and integrated into MLCC.
Not sure what you mean about automated shipbuilding. In LU you need to queue up all the ships in the PHQ build queue and then template outfit them once they are built. And since the LU player has infinite money, that is why I am saying you can also just skip this step and buy the ships instead. I do suggest having a SCH array that produces all your weapons and shields however.

Re: Litcube's Universe
...I've just discovered the player console and binding options... I did not know you had to bind a key to this feature (nor the others).. I must have missed on the website where it said that I need to bind keys for these features in the Controls menu or I'll never be able to use them
Re: Litcube's Universe
Hello guys, is the cheat mod somewhat compatible with X3LU? I don't see it on the compatible mods for X3LU, and there's this terran station on Saturn 2's east door which kills me instantly everytime I enter the sector, and I don't want to **** my relationship with the terrans. There's also another station which bumps constantly with another one on Kuiper's belt, but that's not game breaking, just annoying. I've also lost a lot of ships I wanted to repair thanks to terran stations, and at the stage of the game I'm at (I don't have any SCH yet, just barely bought my HQ yesterday) it's somewhat ****** my progress
Also yes, I built those stations, I just built them on the beacons and I hadn't any problems till now

Re: Litcube's Universe
From what I've seen the answer appears to be that the cheat package is partially compatible, but the part that deals with stations is broken/doesn't work and the risk of introducing potentially gamebreaking issues looks to be not zero.Koumi wrote: ↑Thu, 20.

A workaround would be to use the Quantum Jumpgate Extension and either jump to the center of Saturn 2, or send a scout in to drop a jump beacon and get in that way (you still need the Quantum Jumpgate Extension to use beacons btw). The scout will be safe as long as you stay out of the sector, as collisions are turned off everywhere except the sector the player is actually in. Other than that Terran stations are notorious ship killers due to their sheer size, and pretty much all you can do is suck it up and deal with it.
A veteran tip for later: Check the placement of stations before you drop them, to make sure they don't collide with other stations or block gates. The nav beacons tend to end up in positions that make me think the pilot went on a two week space fuel bender and then smoked himself into the 12th dimension on space weed, so I always double check to see if the placement works or if the pillock - pardon, pilot (well ... script, techically) who placed it had been bar hopping again. The mission will still complete even if you don't drop the station directly on the beacon, and at this point I'm fairly certain the game will give you your reward as long as you get the sector right. Personally I tend to drop the station near the beacon for roleplay reasons, but you got a lot of leeway regardless.
I'm sorry, I can't hear you over the sound of how awesome I am

Re: Litcube's Universe
This made me chuckle, thanks for that
Using a jump beacon seems like a great workaround, I don't know why I didn't thought of this before, maybe I'm the one who''s into space weed
The good news for me is that one of the stations that is ****** me seems to be receiving damage from the gate (I guess the game considers the gate as an infinite hp station?) so I was planning on sitting on that sector until the station is destroyed once I'm done with getting money for this SCH
Thanks for the help, and I guess I will be more careful
Re: Litcube's Universe
Hello there,
Sooo after some time playing around with the normal litcube's universe i decided to play around with some scripts and the cockpit mod. Since the installation of either Anarkis Defence System or the Mk3 Improvement Scripts i somehow can't get any of my ships to auto jump.... Anybody here knows a way of how to fix this?

Re: Litcube's Universe
First, thanks for a wonderful mod.
Then a few question:
- is there a point in equiping the fighters in a carrier with a jumpdrive?
Also, When do you use Snotras? Is it worth it:
- as UT
- as courrier?
- as freighter?
- as agent?
Can you take sectors? Like pirate ones for example? Is there a point?
Thanks

Re: Litcube's Universe
I would say there's not really any point in equipping carrier fighters with a jump drive. It's extra cost and extra logistics for very little gain.KTV wrote: ↑Tue, 6. Jul 21, 23:10First, thanks for a wonderful mod.

Personally I use a Snotra as a reaper shuttle, as they are the second fastest and most heavily shielded TS. This means they can get in, scoop up loot in a hurry and get out, and has a beter chance of surviving the odd Xenon or Pirate patrol if they run into one. For UTs they're probably a bit of a waste, as cargo space isn't that important and you're giving the job to a 35 million heavy TS when a ~10 million Vulture Advanced can do the same job just as well. Generally, if you need something big moved in a hurry, and the extra shielding might be a plus, go for it. If not there's probably an option that can do the same job for less money.
As for claiming sectors - Nope. No can do. Mayhem, which is a total conversion LU mod, is the way to go if you want to conquer the galaxy. Mayhem 2 keeps most of the LU mechanics, but also introduce things like resource management and having to fight wars to stay alive and grow your empire. Mayhem 3 is a completely different beast, and introduce a randomly generated galaxy as well as simplifying the economy and introducing a lot more strategic elements. Personally I feel it deviates too much from the core game, but I do know a lot of other people enjoy it.

Re: Litcube's Universe
Quick question:
Is Litcube (the person) still around?
I found a series of smaller bugs in the LU code and fixed them for me locally but would like to contribute my fixes back to the project. However he has not responded to forum messages/emails in a week so I'm wondering whether he just stopped interacting with the community.

Re: Litcube's Universe
You can post your fixes in the topic here with a description. No one forbids this. He's been gone for a long time ...
Others will thank you for the corrections.

Re: Litcube's Universe
That's a good suggestion.
All my fixes so far are here:
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/ ... lFor-CZ5uc
What was fixed:
Dock & Station Agent
The DockAgent and StationAgent would never properly flee during an attack and after docking at a safe station resume their work. The code for that was just not there/half-written and then forgotten.
I fixed it by using the same behavior the Phanon trading ships use.
ColourShipNames
Also the utility script to color ship names had a subtle bug where the “*h” name replacement pattern for the homebase never worked. This did not affect normal use but for other scripts that tried to use this, it did not work.

Re: Litcube's Universe
Is there anyway to find out which sectors are rich in Nividium debris? I've already used the tractor system to condense every asteroid in the universe into a single debris field and I think I'm close to having mined it dry.
edit: yup, it's gone. No more nividium. I guess 400 pirate falcon miners was excessive? Moved on to ice.
Also check out the results of building a 360 ring of fire on black hole suns north gate

Re: Litcube's Universe
Hello
Sorry if the question have already been ask but I don't have find anything about !
On a base of X3 AP unpatch from steam(bought some weeks ago),
I've install
X3AP_3.3_nonsteam
LitcubesUniverseV1.7.1.exe
LitcubesUniversePatchV1.7.2.exe
The game could be launch but evrywhere in the laucher screen it's written =Text|DNotFound=
The message also are like that !
So it start from that and so SWLU doesn'y work properly
Is there a solution ?
