I am also seeing no contracts or NPCs available in game after I drove my rover to Corcosa Colony A. The contract block has a note about Keen needing to fix things? I verified I have all the mods I am supposed to have and that they are running on the save I am playing so I'm not sure what's wrong

The web map does not show this resource.

The web map planet viewer tells you where to find the special resources in the descriptions.

please help. Where on the planet should I look for spice? It is not shown on the 3D map.

Same as @Wash2, I have the mod, all the core mods and even all the starts. There is bases, but nobody in here, and 0 contract/mission avaiable

https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3000131281

@Wash2 it also NEEDS the mods in this collection in order to work properly.

Its this dead/broken? I have it full installed and running, but there are no NPC's to greet and no contracts available.

i was wondering. is there more planed with this scenario? its already awesome. i never played a scenario before. very good stuff. :-)

Can i play coop on it?

anyone else getting mods failed to load?

@KnightForEyes Splitsie has a season of Ares at War, if that was what you meant.

I feel like If you wanna run a singleplayer Run, This modpack is the best thing you can do. This is what solo Space Engineers has to be for CO-OP, PvE , Great Reasons to Visit planets, Wellmade markets (You can kinda get rich pretty quick by buying something from some trade centers to sell to the other one) AND Rather pretty fun to fight enemies.

Wished some big youtubers could able to look into this like Splitsie etc... So maybe we can gets bars setup for SE2 so we can actually have a Fun game for SE2

how do i find crystal prisms? i cant seem to find it anywhere and i need them for laser tools, thanks

Oh yea, why does the Mod compatibility assembler not allow computers to be put in for crafting, yet theres at least 1 recipe that needs them, the scavenger bot? (I had to check what mod to be sure, but you're the author for IO also, so I figured here is fine).
Thanx again!

I love this scenario, Thank you so much for your hard work!
I can hardly wait to see a GRAND scale version with like 7 planets, and each with a moon or two; a Truly Massive Scenario that will take months to get anywhere lol Each planet with their own special resources (I love using Industrial Overhaul, brings so much more to the game, oh and cant forget to add in shields and THYA script, I mean what is science fiction without shields! lol), and a somewhat of a progression line(s) so that going to each is needed in some way.

The only thing I'm having issues with is knowing what will trigger what; like, I built my first little destroyer to get into space, and then when I was done it, Marshal Law by GC and cant leave the planet.. I only had a small shuttle, a mining ship, and the destroyer, so I was not ready to go fight yet...
Thank You!!

Anyone else unable to see the additional scripts added to LCD panels (News feed, Faction strength, etc)? I noticed that they changed the wording from "scripts" to "apps", so maybe they updated something recently and broke it?

Also @gachd, using wind turbines, the "max output" is how much the turbine COULD be producing, but unless the power is being used it will never go to max. Current output shows how much of the power it is generating is being used by your stuff. If that's not what you meant, then I'm not sure because mine are working fine on a newish AaW save.

Does this scenario (or another mod, areo physics perhaps?) screw with wind generation? The vanilla wind turbines frequently, repeatedly and almost consistently under-perform their max output even when they have an "optimal" readout.

Just had a "Logistics Post" I had turned into a base be deleted and respawned unmodified after I have moved over 25km away...

working on the next iteration.

new map,
contracts,
new npc

Hows the Development so far? Is it still under development or just mostly maintained?

map should work again

right I will look into this later today

3d maps aren't work properly, only system view is correct

having same problem every thing but the map loads for the 3D map

Any chance to get new Link to 3d map?
Or my internet goes wrong?

Anyone else having trouble with the relative top speed mod? I went to that mod page first and left a comment, but it seems like things have changed over the years on SEs end, and the mods 1/2 broken at this point (speed readout incorrect, shows the wrong config but loads with the correct settings, etc...). Has anyone running the Ares scenario found a way to get the speed readout correct, or `/rts config` to show the real settings? I can tell the settings are being applied, and that the results of `/rts config` are not related at all to the actual setting in-game (it's pretty obvious when a grids travelling over 1 km/s even if your speed readout is broken). Are people replacing it with another mod? I like the idea of relative top speed better than anything else I've seen, but when the only way to tell how fast you're going is to look at the trees and guesstimate, it makes gameplay difficult...

So i need platinum to craft thruster components on Industrial overhaul but there is no platinum on the main starter planet?? how do i make thrusters?

Can you add your own factions with MES or does that break things?

When I reached "Unknown Meeting", nothing happens, why and how to solve?

Do factions like the GC change behavior after story events or MES threat scale passes certain thresholds? I could get within 300m of a GC base with no rep loss but now after the FAF/AHE base was destroyed in a story event, I can't even get withing 3km of the local GC base without suffering fast rep loss.

My friends and I have found a bug, the planets center of gravity is not centered with the planet itself. thanks

How do you have it where you can sell grids in the economy stations? I see the option, and i want to set it up on my server

some errors on loading mods with missing resources (try reintall mods, but no effect):


MOD_ERROR: Ares at War Part 2/3, in file: ...SteamLibrary\steamapps\workshop\content\244850\2742647898\Data\Factions.sbc Resource not found, setting to null. Resource path: ...SteamLibrary\steamapps\workshop\content\244850\2742647898\Textures\FactionLogo\faction\logo02.png


and some warnings for error spawn groups of Reavers (maybe that right)

Ran into an issue, not sure if its a bug or a change made in the mod. Items cannot be passed into the basic assembler through the conveyor system. It can with the full assembler, but not the basic assembler.

Any idea how to fix planetary encouters from new update?

Is it possible to combine the planets of Ares at War and Real Solar Systems?

The global prototech encounters (way out in space) definitely spawn. The random planetary encounters added in the most recent update most likely don't, though.

Ok, I found out what is wrong. Caldari Sky Box DX11 Darker Sun is causing lthat solar panels are less efficient, at least for me.

Any signs of prototech spawning in this World?

Reminder, This mod is getting developed by Single person. So Stay Frosty for anything Prototech.

@CDClone set beta to signal, get older version of MES from mod.io and you're golden

Will the prototech encounters spawn in this mod? If so that would be nice

Depends, since I do have other mods, but I use them depending on situation. When AaW is running, then I use only; Colorful Icons, Caldari Skybox DX11 or Gellente Skybox, Ore Detector+ (this I use always when I play solo since my luck to Cobalt RNG is... bad), Plantable trees and bushes, Clear and Vibrant camera lens and Weapon Core (since this one is awlays partialy active, even if not selected). Nothnig more, so from what I understand it shouldnt coldide with AaW production/power seetings.

Also, some mode names can be spelled wrong since I write them from memory.

soooo is everybody's save broken after today update? or is it just me ?_?

Also a good question is, are you using other mods like IO?

Mars is the same

@Rohen after some testing, this is what i found (this only uses Ares at War scenario, no addition mods):

Lazuno - 1 solar panel - max output seems to slowly go down at a rate of 0.01 kW per second. Current output stays at 2kW.
Vanilla Earthlike (no mods) - Max output stays stable at 150.9 kW, current output is at 150.9 kW

I have a question; do you decrased solar panel efficiency? Im asking since on Lazuno there is almost no wind, so I use panels, but 20 of them is bearly enaught ot sustain Refinery, Assembler and Survival Kit. Why are they so inefficient on a desert planet?

The stone is textured as Iron ore, i'm going to guess that this is not intentional. It happens on all planets

Hey I need some help im looking Star System that is like Ares at War were you can only mine around a gas gient like in Ares at War system
