Enhanced Science Ships [Discontinued]

Description
Enhanced Science Ships brings a small handful of, well, enhancements. To science ships. Please don't be surprised.

This mod is designed to allow for more independent and unique science ships - Not just the same science ship every time you play. There are different FTL enhancements for each of the FTL types, along with a sensor enhancement module and a new Science Ship section.
  • Warp Drives can research Warp Drive Tuning, which adds components that add range at the expense of speed, or speed at the expense of
    range.
  • Hyperdrives can research Hyperdrive Optimization, which significantly increases speed along hyperlanes.
  • Wormhole Drives can research Miniature Wormhole Generation, which equips the science ship with its own wormhole generator that allows it to travel outside of the wormhole network
  • Sensor Boosters can be researched by any, and grant a bonus to Sensor range.
  • Enhanced Science Ships can mount two Aux-slot components in addition to improved utility component slots.
  • Adept Surveying is a rare tech that grants a +25% increase to Survey Speed

2.0/Apocalypse by default disables player designed science ships. I feel like it's a much better way of doing things, so I will be discontinuing this mod.

Has anyone actually seen an AI use one of these?
[Andon]  [author] 7 Oct, 2017 @ 3:00pm 
If I did my stuff right, the AI should use it, but I make no guarantees.

The old version of the mod did seem to work in 1.8.1.

Update uploaded.

Testing shows that this still works fine in 1.8, so there'll be an update incoming tonight. Sorry about the delay.

Cool. I liked this mod a lot for 1.5, and hope to see it updated to 1.8 soon.

I haven't tested this for 1.8. I'll be doing that this weekend, and updating as needed.

Any chance you could do a compatibility mod for NSC for the Science Cruisers?
