Im on it, dont have enough time to even run RW

This is such a well done vehicle mod, pls come back Ogam <3 until then I hope you all are well.

i sent the 1.6 version to Ogam, but he's unavailable.
so it'll be updated whenever he uploads the mod.
else i'd have to reupload a separate continued version.

I have come to say that I am looking forward to this mod being updated to 1.6 :)

1.6 please

1.6?

@Abendzeit, sure!
[MOD_FOLDER]\1.5\Defs\VehicleDefs\Skyranger\Skyranger_VehiclePawn.xml
Line 44: <CargoCapacity>

I'd like to modify this mod so that I could load more weight into the ship, but I couldn't find the file from which I could edit the load value. Would you please provide the name of said file and its path thank you so much

The Image says 1.4 so I wanted to be sure. :)

@MangoCobra dude it`s already 1.5

Will you beupdating this for 1.5?

@Yes? dude if you dont know then how should we? Give us some info, log at least. This mod literally cant brake anything because its`s pure xml makde on Vehicles framework

idk why but it broke my game where it disallowed pawns to use furnitures

I really wish there's a version with XCOM EU's Skyranger and even the OG XCOM version

looks like ogam forgor to write the latest patch notes here:
- Fixed research techprints bug for non-royalty players
- Max cargo 400 -> 600

This is my favorite Transport now, thank you!

Nice mod. Vanilla Vehicles Expanded at this stage of development lacks normal high-tech air transport.
Yes, there are helicopters (except for the first one, he is useless), but finding their wrecks is a complete random.
I get them very rarely.
Have the opportunity to just buy blueprints and make a very decent air transport - make the game much more enjoyable. All factions have shuttles, and you fly on buckets with rivets.
The only thing I would note is the low transport weight. Well, that's understandable, it's not a huge shuttle. But you can carry a lot of troops.
Thanks for this mod.

@Smoke Fumus I don't use the Skyranger right now (planning on it though), but just going by stats it has lower cargo capacity because it's a sidegrade rather than a direct upgrade.

It has lower cargo than the Louie, yes, but it carries 3 more passengers, carries a bit more fuel, has better fuel efficiency (especially once it's flying), and is far more resistant to blunt damage.
As a downside it has a bit less total health and it's much larger, so giving it a landing pad takes up more room.

Why is this only 400kg cargo? Since it is "advanced" shouldn't it be competing with T3 vehicles, at least Louie which is 1200kg cargo cap?

Looks awesome regardless.

Any chance you could add a variant with an autocannon mounted underneath the cockpit or something?

@jaargo2000 it happens to all vehicles sometimes, I dont even have this mod active and it still happens to SRTS vehicles and non SRTS ones.

mod compatibility depends on if the Vehicle Framework is compatible

Is it multiplayer compatible?

Is it compatible with SOS2 ? Time to chase the xenos !

Might want to update your logo to the same edition as the mod itself.

@jaargo2000 Yeah same exact problem for me, except it's started happening with all my different transport vehicles. Oddly enough, it only happens for certain maps.

Thank you for making this mod. It is by far my favorite aircraft in the Vehicle Framework. Thanks for all the hard work!

Every time I try to land on a new map, I lose the entire vehicle and contents. Works fine for trade, just not for deployment.

Yeah thanks for the update, the only mod that adds a cool sci-fi shuttle bar SOS2

Thanks for the update to the only cool scifi aerial vehicle on the workshop using vehicles framework

Update on 4/23/2024 9:47:02 PM.
- 1.5 update

Has anyone actually tried it instead of just asking for an update?

Will you update?

spamming modders does not make them update the mod faster

pls

Can you update the mod for the rimworld !.5

happens

Downloaded this but something called a "Berserker Queen" is destroying my base.

@Cat Kraken you can find all info on our discrod server, there will be a release soon

i try find money to donate very cool mod. any update to the release of new mod?

Ze X-Com 2 Avanger? Cool!

I second the move to increase the cargo capacity of the Skyranger some, but not by a lot. It is primarily a troop transport. I would, however, MASSIVELY increase the speed at which it takes off and lands. In absence of the rope-deployment XCOM soldiers often use in the actual games, landing and quickly taking off again is about the closest we can get.

The Skyranger is built specifically for rapid deployment of troops. It should fire up and take off within a couple seconds of pressing the button, not a solid 15 seconds of wind-up as if it were a helicopter. It does, after all, use advanced alien materials and jet propulsion technology.

The Skyranger in XCOM 2 can haul at least 16 military supply crates during salvage missions, which would weigh at the very least 100kg each judging by their look, so I took the liberty to increase its cargo capacity to 1,500kg to reflect this. Other than that, awesome mod :-).

No, it shouldn't be like that. dunno what could cause it

When i use the ship and land my colonists come out half dead with like a missing shoulder and shit. Is that intended?

"Firebrand, ready to deploy!"

Best Vehicle Ever!

the landing in the video sounded like a microwave, i could not stop laughing

2 techprints, so many adv components and much plasteel for a slightly different tho not better Louie...
Looks very nice! Tho balance is very nerfed lol
