[MOD] [OBSOLETE] Civilian Fleets: Mimicry Extension (v6.05)

[daBeschi]

Hello,

There should be no problem. The MOD does not touch the scripts. It only makes the mimic command better.

Question,
I have a range of mods including VRO and also civilian fleet mimicry + sanity miner + patch for sanity miner.
when i create a fleet the commander stays in the anchor sector and selling it there or in a nearby sector, but the subordinates will start mining there, then sell somewhere and then start mining all over the place in seemingly random sectors.

is this normal behaviour?

This *seems* normal? What this mod does is simply to copy the order of the commanding ship to other ships. What actually happens inside those orders, this mod does not know.

However I think I implemented a "handicap" feature where if the subordinates are more skillful than the commander, then the subordinates are allowed to operate so that it is >= commander but < original subordinate. I think it is the average skill level between the two. Check their skill levels.

And, Sanity Sector Miner involves selling ore in neighbouring sectors, so just reading your description, it do seem working just as promised.

Hi. Great Mod. Have really enjoied using it was hoping to have a small request put in. I put it up on the on github.com but figure I would also request it here. As I do not see how to make the change myself in the code to make it do as I want.

I would like the fleet to name it as such 1-9 start with 00 so they line up top to buttom.

then the fleet 10-99 start with 0 again so they stay lined up.

I not having to look for my fleet 10 at the top of my fleet list instead of after 9.

Hi all

Since X4 7.0 features improved mimic behavior, after thinking it over, I have decided to discontinue this mod. However, the migration to vanilla mimic fleets may not be as smooth as it should be, so remember to read the docs here: https://github.com/Vectorial1024/v1024_ ... CLOSING.md

It is a historic moment to see an OG mod (Mining Trading Fleet) from the 1.0 era (2018) to eventually be adapted and re-implemented into the base game in 7.0 (2024). I like to think the popularity of this mod (13K subscribers at Steam, 7.5K unique DLs at Nexus) has motivated EgoSoft to create and improve the Mimic default behavior.

Once again, thank you all for your continued support over the years!
