I'm curious how biological shipsets get special treatment -- I guess only one of them needs a distinct set, since they're already different from all other ships.

Wait untill main game is fixed. Right now its so broken that no mod can fix it, and mods that are working in this state will break when game become playable

So.. where did RIG 4.0 go? I noticed you sent a message , and then it went poof?!

Oooooo nice

Hello anyone that might be subbed and paying attention to this comment section. I have a prerelease beta up and running for RIG 4.0. If you are interested in testing and giving feedback before release, please click and play.

yeah i'd love to have some news. I had started highschool when i first played this mod and i'm at my last year now haha

How is work going? Any news about mod? Game feels empty without Your mods :(

Hype for this mod!! I have seen recently the reddit post and i am dying to play it

If i would suggest something. I would suggest that Necroid ships should get some more Aux slots and less weapon slots, and bonus +1 cloaking strenght.

@uni790 I agree with that. There not enough depth without this mod, everything is... bland

Good to know there's a chance the game might be playable again, game is pretty much soulless without your mod.

it's beginning

Nice to know this might come back :)

<3

Incase anyone is interested, i posted an update on progress here. https://www.reddit.com/r/StellarisMods/comments/11sxnyz/just_a_quick_update_for_my_mod_reimagined_gaming/

Go check his second mod for module and weapons. He have posted some message about an update, in the commentary section. The mod is not dead, we just have to wait.

@Great_OLAF3 it only supports vanilla ships and stations / defense platfroms in terms of role bonus that they get. That does not mean it won't work with Giga, just not getting any role bonus for other ships not supported by this mod.

Didn't see it in the list, so I'm assuming the answer is no, but does this work with the ship types added in Gigastructural Engineering, like the attack moon? And, unrelated, does this only affect ships, or does it affect defense platforms as well?

@Nanoblast it would still be possible to make a compatibility patch or something of the sort tho if someone skilled enough got their hands on it

Im also still looking for this one :D

Will this ever get revived? I remember it being a great mod

please update. it's very good mod but need update

because NSC is the stellaris equivalent of stacking fluorescent markers and this feels more like vanilla+.

if this is abandoned why not suggest its incorporation in some way into the NSC mod

just a little curious, is it completely abandoned or just low on the priority list?

Amazing mod, it's really how the ship selection should have been. Played with it in previous patches, and the thought of starting a game without it is discouraging. Keep up the great work!

Has this mod been updated to 3.4 yet or no? Just curios so I don't break any of my saves

That's because it hasn't been updated for a few versions, mainly since Gray has been trying to pretty much overhaul the whole thing.

For 3.4 construction ships cannot be constructed with this mod

please update for aquatics species

it's playable, you just won't have any bonuses for aquatics

is this mod playable in 3.3?

@bioprof76 its just flavor text, a joke how the arthopoid bonus is just ships inside bigger ships like a matryoshka doll

Anyone know what the nesting doll/russian doll protocol does for the arthropoid shipset? I can't seem to find any in-game mechanics it affects. I imagine it has something to do with carrier versus non-carrier, but beyond that I'm not sure

Ok, so this is the part that you need to put in serction "military stations" in file caled
00_ship_sizes.txt

Also, changing is_designable = no to yes in colonizer, constructor, etc. allows you to change their components in fleet's design menu (they are visible there (useful when you are using mods adding new armour, power core, etc, and game doesn't see them as an upgrade to vanilla items))

Hope it helps someone!

a google document?

Update: I added lines of code to file 00.ship_sizes.txt and I am now a proud owner of a fortress and defence station that previously was unavailable ;)

Can't post it here because it is over 1000 symbols, if anyone wants the solution, please suggest how can I send it to you

@Archael thank you! I was worried that I had done something with my load order!

@MorallyGray - Do the new 3.3 scripting changes impact your work much?

@ludi1989 Its because mod hasnt been updated yet since pdx changed one thing in case of starbases and all mods providing new defence platforms stopped working. MorallyGray have said that this problem is fixed but in new version of mod, yet this version hasnt been published yet. We are all waiting :)

@MorallyGray
Help: am I correct that your mod adds Fortress defence platform?

If yes, why can't I build it since I have its design aviable and I have researched needed tech (tech's name: "Deep Space Installation")

Not be an impatient dick, but ngl, I'd rather the mod be updated asap, and the Aquatics get their bonus later on after they work, but I'll just have to wait, Hahaha.

Any News? I know you had plans for a holiday update, but I know how holidays get, Just excited.

Might want to make a mod inspired by this that implements a hero vessel of a cruiser size for each set. Limited to one, can't be in a fleet, and fast. Best used for reinforcing a losing battle.

I was thinking that the mod was abandoned.

Then I remembered he has to do a new shipset, the aquatics'.

@Snowstorm Avians and Amphibians are closer to reptiles :D

spoiler alert: it's hull tanked railguns, fish are close enough to reptiles anyways

I am so excited for this.

I'm trembling with excitement in anticipation for the release of 4.0!

Really like the idea of small ship focus for Aquatics. Paired with missiles & torpedoes, it gives a very "school of fish" feeling.

For bonus, maybe small ships have +% chance to disengage, and some small armor & hull regeneration.
