I know she be an old lass. I know this mod is up there in age. But what in the world is happening right now: I started a new save and I can't get 'er goin' cus the fucking Navigation Terminal is in the ceilin'.

Question do you do requests? If you do I saw you’ve remade some of the vanilla subs any chance for doing a remaster of the WinterHalter?

Epic: This vessel has been updated with new drones.

Yeah, the problem is still there (can't trigger the non-safety button on one of the drone). Your ship is very fun though. The isolation bay design is probably the best because i tend to put traitors in there and water torture them.

Teacan: i moved the front drone docking port on the combined REDEEMER w/ DCS .. I should probably do to this build too. I like having the drone turret there but I agree its been problematic.

Yeah the second drone still have that ongoing issue, i have to click more than 6-7 time to activate the guns. The safety doesn't work either. I believe you might need to rework this.

extra: if the drone goes to the front airlock of the ship. it will actually clip inside and just get stuck there, is there a way to prevent this from happening? (you might need to re-design the front of the ship.)

BravoSixGoingDark: Thank you for testing. I could not find the issue when I investigated. The only thing changed on the drones from original are the WiFi channels on the second drone, the docking ports are moved slightly higher and all repairable components are set to not need repairs and be invulnerable. It really sounds like WiFi being duplicated but I did not find it.

I tested it a bit more and found that it was still able to switch, but you have to click about 6-7 times in a short span of time as opposed to only twice. It might be due to values in a memory component that got changed or there might be some interference with the wifi signals. Though, I am not sure.

BravoSixGoingDark: It sounds likes a missing WiFi component where the channel did not get switched. I will look now. Do you happen to know what channel the double click was assigned through?

Hello! I tested the sub again and it has updated, and everything on the sub seems to be working very well. Though strangely, the front Valkyrie drone is no longer capable of switching between navigation mode and coilgun targeting mode by double clicking. The rear one is working fine. I don't have the modified files so I don't know what could be going wrong. If you send the file to me on Discord, I can have a look at what might be causing this.

Aww man .. yeah it doesnt always push the update right .. lemme try pushing it again.

I just tried it out. Although there was window that popped up saying the ship was updated, I couldn't find any changes for some reason. There are still two storage cabinets linked and the sub has no power when docked.

BravoSixGoingDark: I have updated the sub. I have only a single container linked to each crafter now to avoid overlay issues aaaand... I put in a little docking power feature for you that will detect when it is docked, if it is docked it will auto switch to battery power and set the battery charge rate to max. Try it for me please and see what you think? I'm actually kind of proud at how simply it works.

I am updating the build now. It finally did it .. Thank you for commenting on it Bravo!

Whoa ok now it did it .. uh .. that is kinda random.

BravoSixGoingDark: So ofcourse it wont do that for me .. it puts the containers top left and right with craft button completely visible.. sigh. What resolution are you playing in? Maybe I should test at different res or unlink a container. Here is link to what I see. https://ibb.co/YX4pT8z

BravoSixGoingDark: Cool. I believe its minor enough to not need to be connected but I will probably update the build anyway. Oh man the container is locked in position on screen , i forget .. hmm I will look at that now.

I just used a relay to connect both the docking hatch and the reactor to the main junction, it takes a few seconds and the sub will be powered without the reactor when docked. Also, I don't know if it's just me but the HUD of the two large steel cabinet is blocking the "craft" button on the fabricator, which renders it unusable.

BravoSixGoingDark: Thank you! I dont really bother with connecting the main docking port power anymore unless its battery operated. Maybe I should and I am just lazy? Saves an unnecessary power connection?

Oh by the way, I don't know if this is intentional or not, but the docking hatch isn't connected to the power grid so the sub can't draw power from the station it's docked to.

Zircon: Thank you! I appreciate you subscribing and commenting!

an absolute pog machine, great job Blacklight!

BravoSixGoingDark: Odd that the forward drone never did that with me while testing but now I go back to test again and it does it all the time. Updating the drone's docking port to prefer top orientation helped but the drone will still dock with the forward door port sometimes if you steer it too close to the door. I have added an "UNSTICK" button to the forward drone's control console in-case that happens. Seems to work better now though.

KennyG: Thank you very much~!

I've had a go with the Redeemer in single-player and it's really quite fantastic. I've noticed that the drone does have a tendency to accidentally dock with the docking port in the forward air lock. I've updated the Valkyrie docking system in the stand-alone page that hopefully fixed the problem. Perhaps you could either copy the docking mechanism into your modified Valkyries? Hope this helps.

nice ship looks pretty well done

Cheers Leo!

BravoSixGoingDark : I am really glad you like it! The drones work just as well as any other drones really. Once you start shrinking things down to create micro drones , the docking never works perfect. However your drones work just fine and dock with no issues with a little ship design creativity. I appreciate you letting me include them as they were the perfect fit for this vessel concept.

Thank you very much for using my drone! As always, your ships look absolutely amazing (modifying your Rake was what got me into the sub editor). I was made aware that there have been some complaints regarding the docking system on the Valkyrie and unfortunately I have not had time to address those. Main problems include the auto-docking will dock to any port, not just the designated one, and there have been reports that the for some reason, the drone will only undock after pressing the undock button twice. Hopefully you were able to address those issues on the models mounted on this sub.
