been rocking a mod for 'ring start' for years that bypasses it fine ;) after all... the thing needed is to take the stuff and make a mega structure plattform option for it is it not ? been in the game since early in the early access after all.

@namoth Pretty sure its not allowed to bypass DLC requirements.

uppdate so uss dlc free rare ones can build ring worlds to ? ^^ ....was in the early access after all :/ loath to no end how paradox cut out all mega structures but 1 to package them as 'dlc' later when declaring the base product finished all those years ago :(

I want you all to know that I am working on this and will try to have something out for you guys soon.

So, I have had a couple comments on my addon to this mod. It seems that some people have had this mod completely not work, but with my addon, it would slightly work. I have no idea how to fix my end, but if you want any help figuring out how to update this mod, let me know. I have no idea what all this update changed, but I can give it a shot!

Yeah, the thing is I need to find out what the largest managable planet size is since the 25 tile cap will be lifted. Default ringworld will be 50 if I remember correctly, but yeah, Ill try to find out what to do with this mod.

Are you going to be updating this to le guin? this is one of the mods i always play with

a shame that it isn't finished :(

Sorry Ive been meaning to finish it but I just havn't gotten around to it.

well no sign of life from mod dev xd

How's the progress of this mod? :) any news to be shared here?

Yes. I simply made the fix for those who really want the option, but don't neccisarily want to wait until a final release.
As said, if you end up updating the mod and to so yourself, (practically integrating the same changes I made), there will be no need for my fix, and I will remove upon request.
All I changed is the replaced the "0"s at the build costs, build times, and maintenance costs, and removed the checks of already existing RingWorlds in the system, forcing the player to build the smaller ones before building bigger ones.
If you want to, I can even send you the exact file for you to use in this mod, so that you won't actually have to do it yourself.
I did not meant to offend in any way, I simply thought that others might enjoy the fix to this already amazing mod!

@BobGrey Do you know what an alpha is?

So, I went ahead and took it as an opportunity to learn some basic game coding and modding, and fulfilled my two requests.
I must say, (no intention of bragging) it worked FLAWLESSLY!
I went ahead an made an entirely seperate patch mod. Simply just a mod that changes some lines of code in common/megastructures/ringworld.txt.
I uploaded it as a seperate patch mod here: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?edit=true&id=1369179547
I made sure to give you all the credits, so no worries.
Feel free to integrate it into your mod officially, or simply keep it as is, so as to give players the option: download only this base mod and have the instant-build no cost, but restricted to having to have built all pre-requisite structures, or download the patch as well and remove the prerequisites, but have a build-time and resource cost.

Thank you for this great mod, by the way!

I have two requests:
1: Add costs. Make it so that these Ringwaorld have a mineral cost, energy maintanence cost, and take a very long time to build (It makes no since that a normal RingWorld takes years to make, and several thousand resources, and these bigger RingWorlds are free and done in an instant!)
2: Make it so that a bigger RingWorld can be built without needing to build the smaller ones first. I personally hate that the vanilla RingWorlds only have 4 habitable sections while there is clearly space for 12 (and the uninhabitable sections just look dumb to me), but I hate having multiple RingWorlds in one system. It is simply too crowded!

Perhaps add a ring world prefrence for species?

Now this is what I was looking for!
By the way, does this require the starting of a new game, or can I simply activate the mod and load up my current game, then research the new techs?

I have finally, for the first time, played the same game enough to get my empire to a stage of building these megastructures, so I would hate to have to start over...

As for the AI being able to use it, I personally would like to see the AI use it (hopefully even prefer it over the normal rings)

@MarrV- Thanks for the offer. If you havnt already, join my discord, its easier to talk there.
@Bio D- At the moment, no. Im open to being talked into it, but atm I think that i will never allow the AI to use it.

Thank you P0xus; my comment on the old mod still stands, if you want any bug hunting, code parsing or any other sort of help am more than happy to provide.

Awesome! I’d also like to suggest adding in Intermediate sections like this mod: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1308654926
As i’m currently using this in replacement and am really enjoying the extra addition that makes a rink world, feel like a ring world

Thank you for the upload

It will give you quite a bit more then that lol

If at this moment this mod will give me Super & SuperDuper Ringworlds - it's enough for me. =3

I had this hidden but for some reason the settings changed and it became public. Yes, its the re-write of the 1.9 version. Its obviousally not done yet.

Hello, from my understanding this is the 2.0.2 compatible version of the 1.9 version that has a description?
