Crew Quarters Upkeep Aura

Description
Crew Quarters Starbase building provides an aura system wide that reduces the upkeep by 25%.
Why you'd want this mod
  • Reduces micro management because you no longer need to go into the system to dock your ships to the starbase as they just need to be in the system to get the upkeep reduction
  • No overwrites of vanilla files
  • Saves resources and works for all ship types
  • Works for allies in your space and vice versa
  • Ships still go green in the outliner when you dock them
  • AI will use it the same as it did before and still get the benefits
Compatibility
  • Built in support for Traditional Thinking 3.6b to give the 2 extra defense platforms with the appropriate tradition.
  • Any other mods I should make adjustments for?
error.log
If Traditional Thinking 3.6b is not being used, expect to see this harmless error in the error.log:
  • Invalid tradition or tradition swap [tr_security_3] (note that purely cosmetic tradition swaps with inherit_effects = yes cannot be used here) at file: common/starbase_buildings/z_ph_starbase_buildings.txt line: 29

This mod seems to create some weird "green arrow" effects, indicating reduced Upkeep, even in systems with no Starbases at all.

I think it's an interaction with the changes to space fauna in 3.14.

Does this work with v3.14?

btw, you don't need an aura, system_modifier achieves the same thing

@AlexaTheGoddess I think it should work with 3.8, doesn't look like anything that it affects has changed.

Does it work with 3.8+?

I'd actually prefer the green colour to indicate that the reduced Upkeep is happening. As in peace of mind.

this is a good idea. it's infact a slap myself in the face idea

@Past The Future
Good catch and I did as you suggested and uploaded the update, thanks.

I've noticed that with this mod, fleets no longer show up as green when you do dock them at the starbase. It seems like the requirement for the fleet to show up as a green icon is to have any amount of reduced fleet upkeep from the building, so maybe you should make the building itself
still provide 0.1% (0.001) ship upkeep reduction? It shows up as 0% in the tooltip and is numerically insignificant.

Regardless, a great idea. Thank you!

Your welcome. It's my first public mod and as simple as it is, it's important to me that it does what I said it would and that it works with other mods. I know it can be frustrating trying to sort out which mods work with which other mods.
