FAQ
Q: Do you plan on adding any more ships or aircraft and can I suggest one I'd like to see included?
A: Yes, but it would be subject to review and we're ideally only looking to add something that you've made yourself or have the express permission of the original content creator.

Q: Can I use this alongside the official default AI and default AI aircraft addons?
A: No, it's recommended that you disable them, as per the instructions on the front page, otherwise they will conflict with each other and you risk suffering from all kinds of bugs and glitches during your playthrough.

Q: Does this addon work with the Weapons DLC AI and Conquest Mode?
A: Yes, because this was originally meant to compliment the Bungeling Raiders addon it should also work perfectly with both the official Conquest Mode and the Improved Conquest Mode (ICM) addon from the steam workshop.

Q: Are you going to add land vehicles like cars, trucks and busses?
A: This is something that we're definitely looking into and have even made a couple of test vehicles for it, but unfortunately we only have one experienced coder in our team right now (Professor Sins) and they're currently busy studying in University and have very little free time to work on any new features, including land vehicles, but we'll certainly try our best to test this out again at some point if they're ever free to help code it into our experimental build on GitHub in the future.

Q:What are the admin commands for this addon?
A: At the moment there are only two - "?ai_debug" which toggles the map icons for the AI vehicles on/off and "?ai_clear" which is used to instantly delete all the existing AI vehicles from the game world (including the hospital ships), forcing them all to slowly spawn in again from scratch depending on the respawn timer.

Q: I actually have some Lua coding experience in Stormworks, is there anything I can do to help?
A: Certainly! Please feel free to visit out GitHub[github.com] and take a look, if you're genuinely interested in helping then don't hesitate to apply to be a contributor and we'll be in touch shortly afterwards.
Professor Sins/Haiwei/Rice is our lead coder of sorts and if they're free to help then they may wish to contact you via Discord to go through the basics first.

Q: Can I post questions about my own creations in the comments section and chat away to you about random stuff like we're best friends?
No, please don't treat this steam workshop's comments section like a messenger app.
Try to keep all comments posted relevant to the creation that's being shown, especially regarding any bugs that may have come about due to any recent patches introduced by the Stormworks developers; anything else should either be sent as a direct message, posted on the appropriate steam message board or via discord.

Q: Do you plan on releasing any of the vehicles included in this addon so that they can be used by players?
A: No. Please check out the Credits section as this will give you a link to the Steam Workshop page of each of the original content creators, there you can find the versions that are meant to be used by players.

The vehicles featured in this addon have all been altered in such a way that they're only meant to be used by the AI and as such they won't behave properly when controlled by players, especially in the career game where you'll find that both fuel and electricity will quickly run out.
