can confirm it no longer works, wish someone in the community would release a patch.

I'd also love an Wolfen Gunship indestructable patch. Defensive flares only can stop projectiles for so long until your ride in the sky gets absolutely crashed.,

Below me is someone who responded to a comment that was years old in order to inflate his own ego. Plus, and this is to rephrase: The vanilla hoverbikes can still be damaged by the elements, and I can tell since I can see visual damage on them. Happens with radioactive planets, or the planets core: So it isn't invincible against virtually everything, but it DOES get the job done.

@KiddleyWiffers: I'll assume you meant that comment in earnest, and let bygones be bygones.

Below me is a dum dum who doesn't know how modding works.

Does this work with the explorerpod and submarine?

Oh, alright then. I got that damage specifically from ramming into a door in the outpost, it's why I was slightly confused. ^^' Wonder why that counts as fall damage.
Tekla  [author] 5 Aug, 2016 @ 4:46pm 
@Kuno I think fall damage is the only damage hoverbikes can take with this mod. I could eliminate it but would make the mod incompatible with lots of others potential mods that affect hoverbikes. So i won't do it.

Are they supposed to still have HP bars in the repair menu? I damaged my avali bike slightly, and it still shows a bit of damage on it. Like one little bar's worth.
Tekla  [author] 5 Aug, 2016 @ 10:58am 
@GameCoreXD Of course not.

Will i lose the hoverbike i currently have?
Tekla  [author] 4 Aug, 2016 @ 8:11am 
@Kuno Yes, I have other mods that are equally shitty, you can check them now. Mod compatibility should be good if you don't touch hoverbike.lua. It's not necessary to edit this file to add other bikes to the game, but this mod will make them automatically unharmable too.

>Goes to check for other mods by user
>Private profile

Do you got any other mods? I tend to try to find out via someones profile since I don't know how to filter by specific mod creators, but your profile is private.

I'm probably going to try out this mod and just see if it's compatible with my setup soon, but only after I get my Avali hoverbike in my current setup. As I haven't experienced how they work without the mod just yet.

Understood, thanks for considering it!
Tekla  [author] 31 Jul, 2016 @ 4:47am 
@Arisol The thing is that I don't know how to make that happen and I doubt it can be done, even when it sounds so easy, because I would have to make calls between objects, access inventory, etc... I don't have the knowledge to do all that. Would be easy to do with the game engine tho.

What about swaping out the broken bike for a fixed version when the player respawns?
Tekla  [author] 31 Jul, 2016 @ 3:08am 
@Aristoi I could, and then the bike would be falling infinitely. I guess i could also make it respawn in player coorditnates but if player falls too I don't know what would happen.
Mochnant 31 Jul, 2016 @ 2:56am 
I understand now, this is just a terrible Starbound UI for the repair. That said, should this mod not also cover protecting the bike when it falls out of the world?
Tekla  [author] 30 Jul, 2016 @ 11:23pm 
@Aristoi that have nothing to do with the mod. If you fall out the world you lose the bike no matter what. In orther to repair it you need to buy 5 repair chips and talk to the robot near penguin bay.
Mochnant 30 Jul, 2016 @ 6:26pm 
I might have found a bug. I drove my hoverbike off the end of the world and fell a ways before dying. Now I cannot deploy the bike (I assume it is broken) but I cannot repair it either (says 0/5 needed). I can try uninstalling the mod and fixing it, that might do it.

Thank you so much!
Tekla  [author] 29 Jul, 2016 @ 11:47pm 
can be done.

How about boats ?

hoverbikes were so god damn useless until now
