[MOD] Player Owned Ship Production

The way you are changing the wares and faction libraries is filling the debug log with hundreds of error messages.

I know, go pester Egosoft to support msel. Having to add half of wares.xml manually means that it's a pain in the ass to keep up to date with the game.

Found a slight issue, with the latest version the spacesuit upgrades have been moved into the "General Wares" section of the trader's menu (with the exception of the spacesuit scanner, which I'd never seen before anyway), which means that when you try to purchase them, they don't get added as an upgrade

Tested on new game, both with and without this mod, without the mod they show up where they're supposed to be

Hello, I appreciate your work on this mod, as always.

I've read the op and the rest of the thread and I'm still unclear on if, with 1.21, you can build shipyards, build ships, and equip ships with shields/weapons/etc if you have low or negative reputation with a faction. My pipe dream has always been to build an asteroid-to-ship manufacturing chain purely in-house and go to war with the entire universe, but I'm trying to figure out if this is currently possible with this mod or if you still have to maintain diplomatic relationships with any factions whose ships/equipment you want to produce.

Thanks!

Once you purchase the blueprints (which requires getting enough standing with a faction to begin with), you then know how to make that ship regardless, even if you then lose faction rep

Before the blueprint method, you needed to maintain faction rep, but now you just need it to get the equipment and ship blueprints to begin with, all can be bought from the faction representivitve

Thanks for letting me know, I know what's causing it. I'll fix it for the next version.

Also, I have 2 lots of blueprints for turrets and shields in the faction representatives list, and when I remove this mod and go check again, I only have the 1 lot of each (also naturally without any ships, weapons, engines or thrusters blueprints either, but that's expected)

Any idea why turrets and shields are doubling up in the list with this mod, and any way of stopping that?

Still seems to be doing it, even on a new game :/ Which means don't even have the space suit repair laser, literally just the scanner

Thank you so much for the mod from Russia! )

Player Owned Ship Production

Description
Player Owned Ship Production (aka Afto's Player Shipyards) is a mod that allows players to build their own Shipyards, Wharves and Equipment Docks using the same tools already available in the game, namely the station and ship configurator UIs.
In order to be able to build the required station modules, players must first research the Build Module tech at their HQ and then scan the AI's build modules (XL/L/M/S Fabrication/Maintenance Bays) to get the required blueprints.

After acquiring the necessary blueprints, players will be able to build those modules at any of their stations EXCEPT for the HQ (this is already enforced in vanilla since it breaks the HQ's map icon otherwise).
Once the build modules have been built, a shiptrader NPC will automatically be added to the station (might take a few minutes) that will enable the ship building/upgrading/repairing functionality as well as changing the station's icon to the appropriate one.

The ship configurator UI has been modified to fix the issue that Egosoft encountered when dealing with player owned shipyards (GetContainerBuilderMacros returning garbage because the player faction has no licenses) and players can now build any ship they have a blueprint for.
At the start of the game, the player won't have any ship blueprint learned and, therefore, the player won't be able to build any ship in their own facilities.
Players can acquire new ship blueprints in the usual way, by talking to the Faction Representative and purchasing the corresponding blueprint from the list of the available ones.
Some blueprints require the player to have certain license but these requires are shared with those of the regular ship building mechanic so, as a rule of thumb, if the player can build certain ship from the corresponding faction's facilities, the blueprint of that ship should also be available for purchase.

Changelog
---v1.10---

• Initial public release

---v1.11---

• Fixed typo in cat/dat name (was 01, correct name is ext_01)

---v1.20---

• Fixed mod for game version 1.50

---v1.21---

• Changed the way I get rid of noplayerblueprint via XPath to be SLIGHTLY less autistic. Should fix crashes occurring due to unexpected ship wares added by third party mods. Thanks UniTrader!
• Made the station_equip_lxl and station_equip_sm licenses available. If you've got the cash (as in, you're literally sweating money) you can now buy the appropriate licenses from your favourite faction representative and outright purchase the blueprints for the buildmodules like any other station module.

---v1.23---

• Added support for Mobile Ship Production
• Fixed spacesuit blueprints being available for purchase

Please, don't reupload the mod, it makes making sure everyone is on the latest verison a pain in the ass.
The download link in the OP is literally a direct link to the zip file of the latest version so it should work perfectly fine (it does for me and the people on the official Egosoft discord server).
Regarding Nexus, I really dislike their policies and constant harassment of mod makers so I will never upload any mod to Nexus. POSP will be uploaded to the Steam Workshop once Egosoft enables it.

Unless you mean something different from what I understand to be 'harassment', Nexus doesn't do that. I use Nexus for my own mods and they haven't contacted me about anything in the ~10 years the mods have been hosted there.

I have a mildly successful Skyrim mod on the nexus with about 3k endorsements last I checked. Don't recall having any issues with their staff or site either, but I do remember I didn't like their client because it did something I found something that felt malware-ish. Don't ask me what it was because it's been too many years and I don't care anymore. I strongly prefer the steam workshop these days, love the integration and automatic updates. Now if only the steam client would adopt tabs...

Anyway, thanks for the player ship production mod! It's the tits!

Still not able to use hand tools: Repair Laser / Bomb Launcher, etc.. which is a right pain in the early game. Anyone know if it's o.k. to remove the mod and add it back in later?

Nope, mod is tied to save game, can't even load it with the mod disabled

Well, I have had their community managers PM on the forums, add me on steam and discord and constantly ask me to upload my mod to their site, despite me stating very clearly all the times that I do not wish to agree to their ToS.

I will investigate this.

Are you aware, that most of your changes in wares and faction libraries are not applied because of 'No matching node... Skipping node.' error?
