/stsg/ - Starsector General

Can you link to the forum thread with all those sprites to use?

Those are just Blackrock Drive Yard ships though aren't they?

bumper bumping
I'll try and be more productive when I get to my comouth and have some images to attach...now it's just a phone ; (

That's a one off, it's not actually in brdy
I always thought it would make a great IBB since brdy doesn't have one for such a well known faction

What's the IBB? Something to do with bounties?

Oh, it's a boss fight for a unique ship like a modded Nevermore

>ICE update never
>dong/exi update never ever

I just want to run around with a salvaged fleet of mishmashed tech, cherishing every time i scavenge something good and treat it like a ace-in-the-hole superweapon of sorts

Riddle me this:
IBB composed of a single ship.
A Modified Legion Battlecarrier.
That is loaded with 4 flights of Moras
That in turn are filled with 3 wings of Drovers each
That in turn have two flight of whatever fighter-sized carrier there is
That in turn have various fighter wings, some fighters, some bombers, some something else

pawns are the frigate sized carriers

Are frigates a viable choice lategame ? Frigates in my fleets usually gets the majority of kills in the early to mid-game due to the fact that they actually are fast enough to catch and keep enemy ships within weapon range. However once you enter the capital ship phase they seem to decline in effectiveness pretty sharply, should you ignore frigates completely and just stick to destroyers as escorts instead ?

never ever

So what happened to the NGO mod? Will it move here? Did anyone on the forums notice? Has anyone called the mods on how retarded "nazi propaganda" sounds?

Frigates ensure you don't get flanked, capture nodes and harass other ships

>Buy lashers in bulk
>Slap SO, IJ, and arm to taste
>Suddenly you have an extremely quick response force for that one carrier that's inevitably going to wander off into a pack of wolves
>Also to harass enemy ships who wander off, or make a massive flank to end up at the rear of the enemy and force fights without them being able to safely fall back
>They're lashers, who gives a shit if you lose two or three, recover them and buy more in bulk
>Even if you don't need them you don't have to deploy them

>IJ
UI
How did I fuck that one up

Wall Class Drone. Edited a few files to make it useable by players and tweaked it so it can actually focus fire power more easily via turn rate.

Its like a broadside ship but the broad side is faces towards you all the time.

>Will it move here?
Probably
>Did anyone on the forums notice?
Either they are the one that bitched about it or are keeping hush-hush to avoid getting banned/doxed, that or there is a BIG PM fight going on, away from the public
>Has anyone called the mods on how retarded "nazi propaganda" sounds?
DING DONG BANNU ALL THE EBIL NAZIS FROM Veeky Forums

>Either they are the one that bitched about it

It's pretty obvious that's what happened.

Someone should email alex and explain the situation to him. He will probably force NGO to be allowed again.

I mean, the whole idea of dictating what mods can and can't do is idiotic. If they pull this of one of dark revenant's mods they'll probably see the whole community just up and leave.

Someone should make a mod where you can rape station characters and see what the staff does

I like Dominator-chan, she's kawaii desu ne. She's got curves in all the right places and is T H I C C, deezam GirL.
If we're talking about mods then Versant is where it's at. She's a superfrigate, quick even without SO and her main weapons pack a punch, good as a player ship. Only problem is she's compensated dating, she'll only put out if you pay.

>Either they are the one that bitched about
This is what happens on any forum. People want to be content gate keepers, so they become mods. Said mods are part of a small circle-jerk click on the forums and if content gets put out that the click dislikes, instant ban.

I wish it was but it's not in ibb.....yet!

I loved ice, it's so different with their phase mechanics I really wish it would update...or someone picks it up ; (

It's good to know ding and exi will eventually get updated though, I can never have too many mods!

Oh shit gotta bump

Sheerest bump time?

BRING ICE BACK!

github.com/Backgammon-/ICE
Go and make us proud /stsg/

P.s. i'd suggest to use Neutrino or other mods with openly sourced code to shamelessly copy-paste stuff from to at least get the basics done

If I could I would have taken like 10 mods by now ; (
But sadly I'm a caveman when it comes to programming

There is a semi-official SS discord, prolly you can ask there for help.
Also, copy stuff from Neutrino, the campaign level stuff (blaneds, markets, etc) should be working in there so you could probably alter two things and transfer it over piecemeal.

For stuff like the special scripts i'd say to alter everything to use vanilla stuff and comment/remove the "special" mod stuff (the fusor scripts for example), compile, test if it works, add something in, recompile, see if it works and if it doesn't try to understand what made the game REEE at you

BUMP

So what in NGO is "nazi" exactly?
The fact that the ships are Hugo Boss black?

German naming motif
That's pretty much it I think

someone is taking over ICE, probably gonna be a while before it's updated though.
the mod is an idealized national socialist faction instead of an evil caricature. I don't see a problem with it because neither the modder or the mod itself have expressed any hatred on the forums.

the fluff is basically "glorious not-national socialism" with some (probably) nazi era military lingo. that's about it.

In fact, i'd say nobody would have cared if Anhe's attitude didn't passively agressively scream "I love nazis"

I'm certain that if someone contacts Alex and tells him what happened, he will force the mods to restore the thread.

If Anhe backs off, I'll just download both versions and re add the original descriptions to the new one. Fuck that noise, every faction is evil as fuck, diable has slave labour, the imperium has a prison planet, the hegemony has little to no civil liberties, the corps have no morals, the path is al-qaida

>every faction is evil as fuck
I thought ORA and SRA were pretty nice

Arguably, Gilead is one of the most peaceful planets around, since the devout like to live in high tech subsistance farming

I haven't read much on the ORA and the SRA, but the ORA has provoked a civil war out of convenience, and the methods are pretty strongarmed compared to, say, the persean league

So is not much that the mod is nazi rather than the author?

no
It's that the forum mod & a couple forum users are marxists

It's more someone in the mod team got assblasted at an implication he didn't like

if you read the thread, beyond the initial OP post where Anhe was an obvious fanboy, the other 5 pages of the threads are all about gameplay balance and design changes

An admin read the description of a several years old mod, got mad and convinced his other staff friends to censor the mod.

tl;dr politically charged autism

It shouldn't matter what the author's leaning is, unless he's breaking rules. There was nothing in the mod itself to warrant getting the ban, even if you don't like the author's stance on things.

I'm ready for the Dong, WHERE IS IT?

Post fleets

I also learned converted hangar is really handy for keeping fighters in engagement range, I've had issues with my carriers hardly ever pushing forward and supporting my fleet with long range weapons. Should've used this hull mod sooner.

What engine is Starsector on?

>Upper right
I see that you too like to let your catgirl sexslave captain one of your ships.

java

Here's my current fleet
Once I found the Morningstar, I switched from the Barbarian since it had more moblility. My Officer has a Phase Buffalo with Reapers for max memes

dropped

but it has
pretty explosions

Doing a lazy Diable play through. That Vapor didn't make it through the last battle and I haven't been able to make it back to a Diable port to rearm. Wish Diable had a better Thrush platform...I love Thrushes.

diable has really bad ships

wanzers are pretty cool and basically high damage insta flankers, but you can't depend only on carriers

the memeport capital can't deal wit AI hegemony destroyers, but it simply refuses to die

>Take sprites from a random game.
>Implement them as a half-assed mod with basic mechanics.
>Add a not so subtle "Nazi did nothing wrong" lore.
>Get your dick sucked hard by half of Veeky Forums.
Well played Ahne, well played.

people thinking the forum moderators did wrong =/= sucking Ahne's dick

>t. Gothars

the very first post on the previous thread was someone calling anhe retarded

go away with your narrative

How did it tasted?

tiny game with small community = time to ban modders for voting for Trump !

nice meme

well, we could use the bumps.

I think he should've been eternally bullied and shitposted on like how /stsg/ does with DME's creator for his autistic beliefs. Deleting the entire thread was wrong and uncalled for.

What's funny is that he's probably some shitskin or a wetback who sucks the swasticock for the le edgy contrarian cookie points. I can't recall the last time when some video-game related personality got ousted as a closet stormfag turned out to be actually white or German.

Oh yeah, keep sucking, just like that!

>making a mod and needlessly inserting his Tumblr-tier political views all over it in much the same way as furries insert furshit into every game they touch
Stormfags are truly the new furries.

lots of white kids are pulling that one off nowadays. gotta thank pol for that

Political views are like dragon dildos or anal beads. You're free to use it whenever you want, it's a free country after all. But only the stormfags and liberuls seem intent on waving theirs around in public like it's something to be proud of.

>How did it tasted?
thanks for outing yourself as a barely literate third worlder, don't bother replying to me again.

Guys there are more important issues to discuss like is there a crab ship with big nippers?

Dominators look like crabs and you can pretend the large ballistics are snippies

Those that think NGO as a mod did nothing wrong, or that Ahne as a person never said anything offensive on the forums or in the mod are all incorrect. You must look closer, read closer, read in between the lines, realize the terms he used, the things said, the light in which the overall theme was presented in and also see the post he has made, though I think it might be gone now.

He is Nazi trash, and the mod itself was his neo Nazi views presented as a power fantasy with no negative connotations. His own personal views, of historical revisionism that the Nazis did nothing wrong presented in the form of his mod. Fuck that shit, and anyone that thinks otherwise is a damn fool. Want Nazis in a game? Sure fine, make them The Enemy. It is that simple. Think otherwise? Hah, then fuck you too dudes.

And look at it this way, him being allowed to distribute that mod on the official forums. Could possibly hurt the reputation of Starsector and the devs behind it. So fuck off with the shit about defending NGO and Ahne, he made his choices and now has to live with them. Be thankful he was given a chance to fix the problems with the mod, rather than the mod and him just removed forever.

Also you might want to add that most people here didn't see the post that he left before it was deleted by the mods

...

I am laughing it up over here, it is all you faggots trying to defend Ahne that are making fools of yourselves. So please, continue to embarrass yourselves

ok gothars

I don't know what you are trying to gain trolling a nearly dead general. you've made more post in this thread than anyone else.

And you would be wrong. Besides it isn't trolling, it is informing those that think the entire NGO situation was not warranted.

the ten of so snappy remarks and references to concksucking are definitely trolling

It has been stablished previously that Anhe is retarded. Nobody really cares. People are furious the mods basically killed the mod because of their own opinions.

Either way, doens't matter. Let him post his nazis in space in this thread and call if a day. That is. if he has enough skin to post here.

>"read between the lines"
so in other words, make up a strawman instead of reading what the guy has actually posted?
>but some deleted post
produce a picture of the post then

Literally nobody cares!

Its a shity mod of look alike ships pulled from another game.
I wouldn't care if Hitler's ghost was on the forums making mods,
at the end of the day thats all it is, a MOD! nobody has to use it
they don't even have to view the forum thread.

Are you fucking stupid? It is full of references and terms and overall light of presentation that has no business being a mod!

No luck looking at cached version of the website, if I find it I will post it. But trust me he made a thinly veiled holocaust denial post on the Starsector forums.

Well, some folks care and you dense ass motherfuckers are still ignoring the angle of the precedent it sets and the possible damage it can cause to rep of the game itself. Stop being stupid, the world doesn't revolve around the opinions of just folks willing to look the other way regarding this sort of thing.

>has no business being a mod!
this is nothing more than your opinion
>But trust me he made a thinly veiled holocaust denial post on the Starsector forums.
are you talking about that "history is written by the victors" post he made? as out of place as that comment was, he isn't wrong.

Mate I've read through all the shit there start to finish! There is nothing extremist there! You can't ignore something that doesn't exist to begin with.

>Surely Alex will restore the mod! After all, it is just a space nazi mod!
LOL, don't forget anons, he flipped the fuck out and closed down the SS meme thread

Obviously not just mine, after all look what happened to the mod. Try harder.

Jesus fucking Christ, you are beyond hope.

>Opinions

The idea that putting Nazis into a game as not The Enemy is not OK. You assholes that don't realize that are stupid as hell.

>Hot opinions

And you should never have kids.

Why do you capitalize "the enemy"? And you should've reported it as a bug if you're unable to fight them in the campaign..

Just to put emphasis on the fact, nothing else.

Anyways, another angle many are not considering. Is that ultimately what is and is not OK is the prerogative of the developers. Kicking and screaming of your laments will not change a damn thing.

He means more along the lines of the Templars. A universal and hated enemy for all factions

If you want to see something everywhere you will do regardless of if it is or not. You will end up being more obsessed with nazis than actual nazis are. You are jumping at shadows dude.

>Is that ultimately what is and is not OK is the prerogative of the developers
But the mods aren't developers, Alex didn't even comment a single thing about the whole ordeal.

>Are you fucking stupid? It is full of references and terms and overall light of presentation that has no business being a mod!

I doubt you know enough about German culture to separate nazy terms from normal German.

>Well, some folks care a

your mistake. Nothing sadder than an idiot on a political crusade about things he barely understands.

Do you also have spastics fits when playing Warhammer 40K?

you know, the game where anyone with genetic mutations gets executed by the state and genocide is the common response when meeting aliens species

because god forbid games being grimdark

You are hopeless, you are fake news.

If you cannot see the problems with the mod, of which I have stated several times. Then good God man what the hell is wrong with you?

Besides, once again. Nazis that are not The Enemy are not OK. Can you please get that through your dense skull?

I think his freak out over the Meme thread on the forums is proof enough
