Pirates Are Coming (alpha) - FIXED

Description
This is a 'fixed' variant of the original mod released by Sunoko over at
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=684799402
In combination with the mod GFDExposer by rexxar over at
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=803652481

This is an exact replica of the release that was published by Sunoko on Jul 22 2016, with the exception of various fixes / minor updates to bring it back to working status. I make absolutely no claims on ownership I am simply modding a mod. If the author contacts me and wishes me to take it down I will of course comply.

The original release was broken when the changes to GetFreeDestination occured, and then the author proceeded to develop a newer raycasting version (2.0). I did not see this version required a new world until after I'd already played my latest world for over a week so I decided to update this version to fix the broken parts so I could keep using it as it was originally intended to be used.



Changelog of what I have done:

Note: Warnings are me just future-proofing the mod a bit since some of the old API's were scheduled to be deprecated later on in the Space Engineers development cycle. The entries with 'GFD' mentioned are ones where I actually fixed a broken portion of the mod so it could function again. And lastly the act of importing, changing, and re-exporting prefabs seems to have modified some of the default keen boilerplate code. So there may be some minor changes to the ships themselves.

j'ai un doute, mais je crois que le mod ne marche plus sur serveur. / I have a doubt, but I believe that the mod no longer works on server.

I try this.

I have read the description and surmised it was written in geekese and thus not for Norms but it has the word Pirates in the title so i like it . . . . . . . whatever it is . . . . . Pirates is ALWAYS good to have in the title.

I can't seem to get it to work I've tried waiting and the antenna spawner neither no one ever shows. Is there something i'm doing wrong?

Also, will it conflict with any of the mods based on Planetary Installations/Planetary Cargo Ships? Trying to find the right balance of AI/NPC mods that play nicely together without shredding local & multiplayer performance!

Hey my guy, will this conflict with EEM or anything that changes cargo spawns/global spawnrates? Thanks!

You most likely won't see any of the spawns if you are within a planets gravity well. Due to how the games spawning system works (and the fact these are all space-faring ships) you won't find any in the atmosphere.

You're best bet to get consistent spawns out of them is to either play on a moon, or else in space such as on an asteroid. Personally I tend to make orbital stations above moons and I get random spawns every 15-30minutes (Though not always these spawns, the game has a lot of default spawns it can choose from too).

As for lag, some of the ships have a ridiculous amount of blocks. Sorry to say this but I don't really have the motivation to upgrade this mod to fix performance issues or other things. For any new worlds I would advise users to check out Sunoko's version 2.0 redesign. This is really just for people who have really old worlds who have already had this prior version running. (2.0 requires a new save, this version does not)

Also some of the spawns seem to makeing me lag hard core

This mod should work for new or old saves. If you're going to make a brand new world I'd invite you to try out Sunoko's version 2.0 however.

The atmospheric drones I don't really know about. I've never seen a random encounter spawn on any of the planets since they wont spawn in or near a gravity well. I don't think this mod included any ground-based pirate stations. Everything I imported, fixed, re-exported looks pretty darn space-faring to me.
