@Madelyn Sorry to bother you, I'm trying to make a mod that changes the normal draconis ship to a modified one, and I wonder if you know how I can do that. Can you help me?

@Skrepka iirc those are part of the base mod, i remember finding a draconis tent and the vendors there were selling them.
Skrepka 17 May, 2021 @ 12:07am 
Damn, what are the clothes in the modification picture?
Well... THAT didn't work... 8 Mar, 2021 @ 8:22pm 
While the spear was OP, it feels too nerfed, and the multi jump form of flight is absolutely shit, especially when in asteroid fields where the mech is already a useless of soggy tissue paper armed with a pea shooter, the flight was invaluable in getting anywhere. What should've been done is tying the flight direction to WASD, boost the speed a little, remove the supper speed, and make the flight consume stamina, at about the same rate as the sprint tech or fire breath tech, which ever is higher. Speaking of the fire breath, the particles should be made to look better, I don't care how much damage it does, I wont use something that looks like just some sever bad breath.

whats the armor the draconis is wearing in the thumbnail?

Nothing big, in a matter of fact, practically invisible, but I wanted to go ahead and mention that in your dragon.species.patch file, under "bodyColor", you have call out body color values wrong.

Again, not really an issue, seeing as this is an issue that would otherwise be invisible unless your brought it out, just figured to mention it. I already fixed it on my side. If you'll like, here is a pastebin of the file if you want it, it's not much.

(The changes I made to make this a problem in the first place was simply making it so the body and hair didn't share the same color [Note: not talking about scales]. This connection is not at all related to this file, so don't worry. This is just correcting the color palette.)

i'm guessing this mod is not compatible with the Better Draconis Ships mods due to those mods changing the ship as well? can you confirm or deny please... i love the tweaks but kinda want to try the mod i mentioned if is compatible (though i doubt it)

Alright, thats fine. Actually, I fixed the dragon bed thing, but thanks anyways! ^^
Madelyn  [author] 15 Mar, 2020 @ 6:45am 
@Natural Aura Sorry, I quit starbound a while ago and as such don't update my mods. I'm cool with people taking the mod and editing it, so if you'd be able to find someone who's up for editing it then I've got no complaints about uploading an edited version.
Kenchi 15 Mar, 2020 @ 6:02am 
Oh, and since the origina authorl isn't currently active, you know if there is any way to patch out this error on startup?
[08:42:52.675] [Error] Object dragonbed defined twice, second time from /objects/beds/dragonbed.object

This has been a thing for a while now, but it wasn't ever fixed. ;-;
Kenchi 14 Mar, 2020 @ 2:54pm 
Don't know if your still working on this mod, but I'd like to make (what I hope to be) a small request. Would it be possible to add the "Dragon Flight" quest to the Draconis Hub rather then the NPC at the outpost?

Well, I mean, either that or make it dedicated to the draconis race, it's quite bothersome seeing that draconis quest in the main Outpost for EVERY race I make, draconis or not. ::>-<::
CYB0RG_ 7 Mar, 2020 @ 12:49pm 
suggestion! tho u might not read this lol. Can u change the eyes for the male ver? and make it look like the cutebound male ones? tysm!
🩸ℜ𝔲𝔦𝔫🩸 1 Mar, 2020 @ 8:50pm 
Might I suggest making it so that the draconis multijump uses energy or adjust whats required to get it? Because it seems way too powerful for just 20 solarium, and 20 aegisalt.
Yiazmat 9 Jul, 2019 @ 12:40pm 
I don't have any problem except i don't know how obtain the t8 for the ship
Антон ваншот 7 Jul, 2019 @ 11:47am 
after 2rd ship upgrade the game crashed and when i try to use save its forever loading
MegaMato 16 Jun, 2019 @ 11:00pm 
My only other wish would be to remove those giant gas pumps.
sneakcat 10 Apr, 2019 @ 3:50pm 
Are you able to toggle the draconis tech change on and off?? i like the original tech because it's easier on my wrists and lets me play starbound longer
Xander 10 Mar, 2019 @ 8:26am 
Does this fix the male draconis eyes? The eyes really make the draconis not for me.
GrimdeGaming 20 Feb, 2019 @ 8:57am 
Am I the only one where the Tech not working like multijump?
Fi 27 Jan, 2019 @ 5:10pm 
Hello Cynic, do you know if this mod causes Draconis to eventually lose their "Exceptional aerial agility" trait from Frackin' Races? It seems as though my main Draconis character can no longer slightly glide in midair as she once did at the beginning, but any other Draconis character I make can do so.

I initially thought it was due to /admin, /setgravity 0, /resetgravity, and /admin again to remove the privileges—all of which I used to rebuild my ship—but that didn't seem to be the case with a new character I tested it on, so I'm trying to narrow down what may have caused my character to lose that trait.

@Thou the Draconis race can use the FU BYOS but u need to get the compactabilty mod for modded races to make it work https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1194878261 for the one for races with Frackin Races compacitliy and then the one without race support is at https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1408636770 the one with race support works for sure not sure bout the other u don't need frackin races for them to work the only difference is the weather the race u r useing is frackin race compatible and the draconis is compatible.

Sry for the long message
Srindecate 4 Sep, 2018 @ 1:51pm 
@Cynic I see. I guess il have to find a work around then haha. Thanks for the tweak mod though, certainly fixes a good number of things :)
Madelyn  [author] 4 Sep, 2018 @ 1:45pm 
@Thou Yeah, but there's nothing I can do about it, sorry. You'd need to ask the original creator of the race to change that
Srindecate 4 Sep, 2018 @ 1:24pm 
Hey there, I would like to report what seems to to be an issue with FU. It would appear that Draconis cannot utlize the "build your own ship" system implemented into FU. The SAIL does not have the option to enter the build mode, even in a fresh start. Im not sure if this is intentional or a bug. As far as i know everything else works though.
Madelyn  [author] 3 Sep, 2018 @ 6:27am 
I've got no idea, I've never used them. It'd be best to ask the creator of the original draconis race mod.
Neonic Maratussy 2 Sep, 2018 @ 7:17pm 
do the raptor eggs ever fully hatch im getting tired of them sitting around my ship
Madelyn  [author] 26 Aug, 2018 @ 5:24am 
@ColorfulCorals Part dragon. Someone has made a full dragon reskin
Under 25 Aug, 2018 @ 9:04pm 
hey @Cynic, is the draconis race part human, or are they full dragon? i would like to know because i like the opportunity to be able to play as a dragon
Xavier 19 Aug, 2018 @ 7:22am 
Thank you!
Madelyn  [author] 19 Aug, 2018 @ 4:15am 
@XavierSomething It sould work fine with any retexture mods. If you mean the recolour mod that I made, then that's 100% compatible.
Xavier 18 Aug, 2018 @ 6:39pm 
Does this work with the Draconis retexture mod?
Adenn666 17 Aug, 2018 @ 10:45am 
Good to know it's intended and not like a bug or something.
Madelyn  [author] 17 Aug, 2018 @ 3:22am 
@Adenn666 It's supposed to happen. It's so that you can move it somewhere else if you don't like the position of it. Same goes with the other objects that you normally can't move
Adenn666 16 Aug, 2018 @ 10:39pm 
So is it normal that after installing this I was able to remove the SAIL console from my ship? I was just destroying the walls to redecorate and noticed that the SAIL console was in my inventory. That doesn't seem like something that should happen.
L0ffree 9 Aug, 2018 @ 8:06am 
I was wondering if you could make a custom intro
Zivaren 27 Jul, 2018 @ 11:12pm 
k thnx i will look into i
Madelyn  [author] 22 Jul, 2018 @ 4:38am 
@TheDeadOne Modded races don't have compatability with FU's ship building system. Vanilla upgrades should still work. If they aren't working it's probably some incompatability caused by another mod. This mod shouldn't be breaking ship upgrades, as the files that manage those aren't touched
Zivaren 22 Jul, 2018 @ 12:37am 
what i mean is i cant build my own ship like in frakin universe and i cant up grade it if i try vanilla way
Zivaren 22 Jul, 2018 @ 12:09am 
how do you get your ship bigger with frakin universe?
lechkingofdead 21 Jul, 2018 @ 12:24pm 
if your lucky aperintly
lechkingofdead 21 Jul, 2018 @ 11:12am 
i have found that hat on the draconic merchints a lot many the ones whereing it
lechkingofdead 21 Jul, 2018 @ 11:11am 
i know what red is talking about and there simple to find just look for a draconic shop on the startign world and you can find a vender selling that hood a chest pice and legs for that set but no geratee that youll find it all in in world
2005 Volkswagen Passat Wagon 15 Jul, 2018 @ 4:40pm 
@Cynic Aight thanks
Madelyn  [author] 15 Jul, 2018 @ 3:42pm 
Not sure what it's called in game, but it's the set used by the draconis NPCs you find in the tent structures. I assume that you buy it from them.
2005 Volkswagen Passat Wagon 15 Jul, 2018 @ 2:57pm 
or just the set in general.
2005 Volkswagen Passat Wagon 15 Jul, 2018 @ 2:56pm 
Ayy i got a question what head vanity is the thumbnail Draconion wearing?
Madelyn  [author] 5 Jun, 2018 @ 11:26am 
Alright, the patch has been implemented.
Madelyn  [author] 5 Jun, 2018 @ 11:13am 
@Salora Rainriver Ah thanks! I'll try and get that patched asap
Salora Rainriver 5 Jun, 2018 @ 7:35am 
Hey guess what? I figured out the problem with the raptor egg. nothing to do with .lua at all, just an error with the egg's .object file.

See, during an update of Starbound, there was a file called shipPetSpawner.lua, and the raptor egg used that file to spawn more ship pets. the problem is that the file doesn't exist anymore.

It seems that the modmaker made a copy of that file and put it in the raptor egg's folder, under /objects/generic/raptoregg, but forgot to change the dragonpetspawner.object file accordingly.

the change is really simple. find the part that says

"scripts" : [
"/objects/spawner/shipPetSpawner.lua"

and change the path to "/objects/generic/raptoregg/shipPetSpawner.lua", so that the end result is this:

"scripts" : [
"/objects/generic/raptoregg/shipPetSpawner.lua"

just tested it, the egg works as intended, no crashing, I now have four beautiful raptor friends.
Madelyn  [author] 28 May, 2018 @ 11:29am 
@EnderCrystalPL I've never heard of any issue like that, sorry. Best bet I'd say would be to back up your character and universe files and try disabling mods until the issue is fixed.
