Hi,

I noticed that, when using the VRO patched version of this mod, the Split Elephant does not have the built-in shield by default. As a result of this, captured versions of this ship must be sent to a Shipyard or Equipment dock to have this shield added, before they can be repaired at a player Support Ship. If you try to order it to repair, you'll get the "Currently edited ship is missing mandatory upgrades" message.

Not a huge issue, though in VRO this makes these ships particularly weak, as they lack the shield regen the built-in shield generator offers.

Hi,

this has nothing to do with this mod and you should inform Shuulo about it. I havent touched that ship and it is not part of this mod to fix it. I think he forgot to add the internal shield to the Elephant and will fix it if you let him know.

Ah, of course, sorry I wasn't thinking it's a Vanilla ship lol. Sorry about that, I'll post in the VRO thread now. Scoob.

Hi,

I have searched this thread but couldn't find any reference on the animated wing/pods of the Arawn.
In X:Rebirth, this ship would extend its wings/pods when entering a fight.

I am not sure if this is doable in this mod.

Any help appreciated

Thank you.

Sorry, but I can not help you with this, else I would have let the Arawn use the animation already, which is not the case . But I am sure it is possible.

No worries, thanks for clarifying !

Hi,

Further to my earlier comments on the Arrakis Destroyer...

I captured another one, this time I retained the All-Round Thrusters Mk2 it came with, hoping it'd behave better. However, it too is broken. When set as a subordinate to another Destroyer, it got stuck. Basically, when the lead Destroyer headed off, the Arrakis moved to try to follow but just pitched up and could not recover from this. It has literally been stuck, unmoving facing straight up and unable to correct its vector to follow the leader.

However, what fixed it - though it's still not great - was to promote the Captain. The default Captain was zero Stars, and giving him a Seminar (I only have the basic ones) raised him to one Star Piloting (2/3rds of a Star overall) the very second his Pilot skill was raised, the ship was able to manoeuvre.

There's some correlation here between the ship not being very manoeuvrable, the lack of dampening when pitching, and, I assume, some responsiveness factor the low-level Captain gave.

No other ships I've used have behaved like this with a very low-level Captain, but the Arrakis is near broken when one is aboard. Sure, perhaps this ship "needs a decent Captain to be able to handle it" as a Lore reason. I notice that my original Arrakis' Captain is now two and 1/3rd Stars in Piloting, and the ship is better for it, though it'll still often lag behind other ships, even those with worse Captains.

In summary, whatever weakness their is in the Arrakis' manoeuvring stats - particularly Pitch - is HEAVILY exaggerated if a low-level Captain is assigned. This technically isn't the ships fault, but if it had a bit better Pitch with basic Mk1 Thrusters I expect it would be less of an issue.

Note: I generally throw rookie Captains into my Destroyers, hoping Combat will see them at Two Stars fairly quickly.

Thx for the Info. I will have a look on it and will see if I can reproduce it and then hopefully fix it.

Cheers, it's a weird one for sure.

On an unrelated note, I use the VRO version of your mod and have a problem I'm trying to get to the bottom of. I'll ask on the VRO thread too, as I've really not got a clue what might be going on here.

I have several Hokkaido L-Class Mineral Miners. They work ok OSS, albeit rather slow even with two Star Captains. However, if I teleport aboard as a passenger / am close by, they break. They do not deploy Ore Collectors after blowing up and asteroid, but just sit there for ages, despite viable chunks being present. If however, I take the captains place, Ore Collectors launch instantly and the ship behaves exactly how you'd expect. My Magentar miners appear to work fine IS, and collect noticeably faster OOS - despite both having 17 Ore Collectors.

I just can't figure why the Hokkaido works so poorly for me in my game, when others playing a vanilla game report them as working just fine. Any ideas?

So on the Rahanis. It bothered me that it's bridge tower module was not there, So rather then complain I decided to try and use what little I have learned and "fix" it for myself. Well I just planed to use the same one you already had in for the Balor, But fell down a modding rabbit hole and unpacked my X:R to get the right L bridge in and working. I did it, Though I had problems with the shaders on the details bits (like antennas) glitching out and didn't know how to fix it, So I just removed them and "hacked" the animated radar from the XL bridge on to it. (it also took an embarrassing amount of time to remember the index files where a thing )

Ok so long story short I offer up what I did to the greater mod, I only placed it on the container Rahanis and it may benefit from tweaking by someone that actually knows what they're doing , but it should be easy-ish to add it to any other ship. I did make sure it cleared the XS dock and also move the bridge view point to match the tower with no clipping

Arakis problem

I think you are right that it has too low turn speeds for a destroyer (it has just 3°/s where others have 4.4°/s). I will improve this for the next version, so hopefully this will fix your problem with that ship.
Edit: I also found the real problem: its inertia is set to 2000 while other shave about 200. Guess thats a "0" too much

Bridge

Didnt know that it has a separate bridge. I will have alook at it and if it looks better, I might add it in the next version. Thank you!

Rahanas Bridge

I tried it out with your files and it looks good. Will put it in the next version. Not sure if I will put it on smaller rahanas versions as well, so it brings a bit more diversity. But for the larger versions its definitley nice!
Thank you!
