if roguey doesn't lie ;)

rovermicrover [author] 6 Jun, 2023 @ 6:10pm

Oh shit I didn’t realize there was two. Will check that out. Not sure how the macro for it is named… hmmm

Alb 5 Jun, 2023 @ 9:10am

Boron have 2 scout ships. One is a "military" version. Unusual.

rovermicrover [author] 5 Jun, 2023 @ 7:44am

Weird I added the patch for it. Will just later today to see if there is some type of issue.

Alb 5 Jun, 2023 @ 6:24am

The boron scout "irukandji" isn't affected by this mod apparently. It may not be being treated like a scout because it requires military license to purchase.

Mycu 19 May, 2023 @ 9:11am

thank you for updating

rovermicrover [author] 17 May, 2023 @ 7:31pm

Updated to include the Boron ship

FinaL 6 May, 2023 @ 12:02pm

If you don't mind, could you please add a 100km scout version too ? ;_; M5 seem still not useful enough for me ^^'

Thank you in advance if you consider doing that :)

Furious 4 May, 2023 @ 6:58am

Thank you very much. This is a simple straight forward mod that should be in the base game. I mean you make scouts worth it. Your 50% range increase is great. It also does not mess with other things. If you want a tiny variety, make 1 or 2 scouts with the less combatant species, 75%.

rovermicrover [author] 17 Apr, 2023 @ 1:20pm

Need to add the boron scouts. This mod should work with 6.0 as is, just with the Boron scouts not having their range increased.

Recon 2 Apr, 2023 @ 5:16am

Would it be possible to have scouts flagged as non-combatants since they really can't fight?

Staalby 26 Apr, 2021 @ 12:53am

Yeah, a 100% range increase would be suitable i believe.

Mycu 26 Mar, 2021 @ 12:28am

An anticipated update. Thanks.

rovermicrover [author] 25 Mar, 2021 @ 7:13pm

Terran and Split Ships are now also targeted.

Sel Und Irae 29 Jul, 2020 @ 12:08am

Why increase range when you can increase speed
Gotta go fast

Indertat 25 Jun, 2020 @ 1:35pm

Maybe increase the range? 50% is still a bit low, considering that this is their only purpose.

Draconix26 26 Apr, 2020 @ 8:45am

I think 50% is still to low but thats just me lol. Thank you for this Mod it is awesome. Helps alot

silvermurk 10 Apr, 2020 @ 7:26am

Please post here when Jaguar will be avelable too

Ael 9 Apr, 2020 @ 1:01pm

does this work with VRO?

rovermicrover [author] 2 Apr, 2020 @ 3:47pm

Haven't updated yet for the Jaguar. Will do here shortly.

Pathogenic 2 Apr, 2020 @ 3:19pm

Will this mod affect Split ships (ie Jaguar) as well?

dogshocker 5 Mar, 2020 @ 10:42am

Got to just say this again.....such a great little mod this.....makes scouts a viable reality...nice one.

rovermicrover [author] 21 Dec, 2019 @ 8:50am

Was asking Invalid Error who reported the same issue

dogshocker 21 Dec, 2019 @ 8:31am

Like I said, great little mod.

dogshocker 21 Dec, 2019 @ 8:31am

Works fine for me last time I used it. Using beta 3.0

rovermicrover [author] 21 Dec, 2019 @ 8:23am

Also do you have any other mods installed?

rovermicrover [author] 21 Dec, 2019 @ 8:23am

I have been using it off an on with the 3.0 beta with no issues or errors. What issues are you seeing?

DJ Icarus 19 Dec, 2019 @ 1:02pm

i having trouble getting to work with 3.0. is it not compatible?

dogshocker 8 Dec, 2019 @ 2:49am

Great little mod this. It's only a minor change but very well focused. Makes having scout ships worth while....many thanks. Amazed that Egosoft didn't write this into the original game....it would seem so obvious !

Kallekanin91 25 Nov, 2019 @ 11:19am

Works now, Just had to unistall and then install agin, sorry.

Kallekanin91 25 Nov, 2019 @ 10:54am

I am using this, but not sure if it works. The listed radar range is still 40k for all scouts.

rovermicrover [author] 23 Nov, 2019 @ 7:58pm

Thanks for your help. I have been unable to reproduce these problems so thanks for the bug report and trying it again.

00DRAGON 23 Nov, 2019 @ 7:57pm

Okay i will try it again Later. Ill let you know if there is any problem.

rovermicrover [author] 23 Nov, 2019 @ 7:55pm

No optional dependencies are used for load order conflict resolution. The way the game works they shouldn't have a conflict, but it is supposed to be a good idea to always declare them this way. But it doesn't work like it is supposed to so just removed them.

00DRAGON 23 Nov, 2019 @ 7:54pm

Does it need them?

00DRAGON 23 Nov, 2019 @ 7:53pm

Win 7 I have your improved Boomers, crystal finder, Dfun skills, Dragon startsa few others. On launch che game sits in memory at 81-82000 kb. and wont open the game page.

rovermicrover [author] 23 Nov, 2019 @ 7:52pm

Removed the optional dependencies. They are supposed to help avoid conflicts according to Egosoft but clearly they are not.

rovermicrover [author] 23 Nov, 2019 @ 7:47pm

What are you running on? Windows, Linux?

When you said the game wouldn't load would it just hang?

What other mods did you have installed?

00DRAGON 23 Nov, 2019 @ 7:46pm

Sadly this one didn't run on my computer, Game wouldn't start had to reinstall my regular mods to get it to run again. Good concept, too bad it doesn't work for me. Ill keep an eye on this, and keep it a favorite.

lattmann 11 Nov, 2019 @ 10:32am

yes its listen with warning --- and block workshop

rovermicrover [author] 10 Nov, 2019 @ 5:01pm

That is just the game listing the optional extensions. If you look at their folders they are empty but the content.xml. They will not affect your game at all.

lattmann 10 Nov, 2019 @ 4:36pm

thats not additional info -- its put the 2 other to the in game extension list -- an there they are blocketed and thats not nice.
Better only Info in text-file and not adding to extension list (the 2 addional mods)

rovermicrover [author] 9 Nov, 2019 @ 8:59pm

Any additional information you can provide would be helpful.

rovermicrover [author] 9 Nov, 2019 @ 8:59pm

Alle zusätzlichen Informationen, die Sie bereitstellen können, wären hilfreich.

rovermicrover [author] 9 Nov, 2019 @ 8:58pm

From my testing they are indeed fully optional.

Those mods are listed as dependencies to make sure that their scouts also have their radar range buffed. If anyone else adds a scout in the future to a mod will do the same.

rovermicrover [author] 9 Nov, 2019 @ 8:58pm

Nach meinem Test sind sie in der Tat völlig fakultativ.

Diese Mods werden als Abhängigkeiten aufgelistet, um sicherzustellen, dass die Radarreichweite der Scouts ebenfalls verbessert wird. Wenn irgendjemand in Zukunft einen Scout zu einem Mod hinzufügt, wird dies auch so sein.

rovermicrover [author] 9 Nov, 2019 @ 8:57pm

Forgive my use of Google Translate.

They should be optional. Sorry will investigate.

rovermicrover [author] 9 Nov, 2019 @ 8:50pm

Verzeihen Sie meine Verwendung von Google Übersetzer.

Das sollte optional sein. Sorry wird nachforschen.

lattmann 9 Nov, 2019 @ 4:32pm

Der Autor hat in der content.xml den " VERSTECKTEN " aufruf zur installation von weiteren 2 mods versteckt !!!!

Deshalb habe ich den deaktiviert und wieder rausgeschmissen
