for anyone wondering how to solve artillery swarm issue, when corvettes just charge into an enemy, use BSB mod

@timou yes it is normal, if you dont like it you can instal : abs addon shorter battles

Is it normal for a space battle to last more than 10 in-game years? And this is with ancient mining drones

i just realised, that autocannons dont shoot at all

hello, i dont see autocannon projectiles at all

As a comment to potentially help with some mod troubleshooting, while this mod is enabled, all of my bioships have multiple stacked -54% fire rate modifiers, resulting in a fire rate below 0. All bioships have fleet power of 1 because of this.

best mod

Also experiencing the autocannon bug. Projectiles look like yellow rectangles than spin around

AUTOCANNONS still bugged. pls fix, best mod in steam

is it normal for the corvets you spawn with at start to have an attack power of 3? Is that what makes the battles last longer, debuff the guns?

will this mod decrease ships sublight speed to achive a longer battle time?i found sometimes my ship become so slow that cant catch up AI ship and then killed by their long range weapons will mines cant even fire.

With this mod biological maulers stop attacking with mandibles and just fly around enemies and do nothing. No weapon damage registered at all in logs. If you give long range secondary weapon - they keep shooting with it and still don't use main weapon. Changing computer behavior don't fix this. Even at simpliest computer - maulers just stand still at exactly distance their mandibles can't reach target.

Hey Chickenhunt, yeah im positive i had screen freezes with ASB by year 2300 during AI battles, i disabled all mods and tried one by one. When i turned off ASB the problem ended.
And yeah, performace is shit right now but im not having more freezes.
i really hope u can update, right now im scratching the epic space battle itch with Sins2 but i miss Stellaris.

Hey @Chickenhunt i always really enjoyed your mod! Now that i did my own mod ( Compact Armadas (Better performance! ), i had to do something for compatibilty as i looked threw your mod. I did create an addon thatfor ( fix ASB to use with Compact Armadas ). That grants full compatibility while aswell adressing things i found not overly correct with current vanilla files. (like autocannons missing a texture location and missing parts for bio ships)

I hope thats okay for you i did set this up? :) And if you like, i can tell you exactly which parts i found were not matching with vanilla files to update your mod?

auto cannons are still bugged. would love to see a fix at some point.

I dont see the tail effect of the ships :(

When will the autocannon issue be fixed? I really like this weapon.

Is autocannon visual bugged? - I do not the see the projectiles but casing shooting around

Is it normal that with the mod active, ships do not maneuver? For example, cruisers with artillery computers just keep moving forward instead of maintaining maximum weapon range. I checked the same battle with and without mod and in vanilla they manouver just fine

just noticed: very strange thing happens...

whenever i install this mod it appears in game client untill i start the game. the moment i turn it off and on again the mod dissapers from mod list, but steam shows it is subscribed

since it changes fleet movment and slows them down - does it also change how hit change is calculated?

Is this Compatible with the Star wars: New Dawn?

@cafiola screen freezes? Yu sure its the mod? I heard vanilla performance is terrible atm (I have not played stellaris in a while)

@cafiola At least the ironman mode it's working well

I wish this version worked with achievements, i want to try it, it looks amazying.

is this mod dead? Currently is causing screen freezes and bioships are useless. As Invictus said, i hate vanilla battles too, they are so lame and over in 2 secs.
Hope this gate updated, this is one of the few mods i run.

This is the Only Mod I run right now, And the last update has made a lot of my AI's color borders black. Is this a game bug or this mod been updated for it?

Also, anyone know of a mod good mods or one that goes good with this? I just hate battles in Vanilla.

i meant asb

if this isnt updated then do vanilla particles still appear that dont have a corresponding bsb particle?

There are still long bc of that mod, but bc of long battle settings in realspace, ships and guardians spawning with 1 power.
Ps* U have 2 turn on and off guardian spawning after turning off long battles :3

That's a nice solution...that said, I prefer longer battles and am quite happy with BSB+ESC for "custom stuff" with ASBIronman supplying bling.

i found solution @DaViper, turn off long battles in Realspace, and everything (not 1st fleet) change 2 normal numbers

Thx for your hard work. This is the most essential stellaris mod for me. Would love to support, buy me a coffee only has card though...

@WiluRs @tudodmit420:

This mod + a few other mods that change fleet/weapons stuff are conflicting.

My own Realspace+BSB campaign was unplayable with ASB in the mix. My solution is simple:

Only ONE ship component mod per playset. I switched to ASBIronman, and all of my fleet size, corvette issues and inability to shoot asteroids problems went away.

I am NOT saying ASB is the culprit, but in conjunction, it + others misbehave, badly.

Still ships have 3 power and negative dmg... why? im using realspace and extra ship components, doesnt work without both. why? ofc mod on top.

i see others have also mentioned this, but what's the deal with the fleet power bug? sometimes the fleet power is equal to the number of ships in the fleet (so if i have 25 corvettes, the fleet power will be 25) and sometimes that is not the case. are there any known incompatibilities which might result in such behavior?

Is it compatable with Legacy of the old Republci? Thank you for your time!

Dear creator!
I have encountered a problem: when the autocannon fires, it shows yellow stripes instead of effects. I am using it with another mod (Sin of the Prophet). The game is set to version 3.14.
I deleted the mod, unsubscribed and then resubscribed. However, no matter where I place the mod in the load order, the error keeps appearing only with this one effect. All the other effects work correctly.

@kroganwar22 hi there, yes that is alright, yu can use whatever you want from asb :)

Hey @Chickenhunt I was wondering if I could implement ASB into Mass Effect A New Destiny. I'd absolutely credit you for your hard work but I also understand if you aren't comfortable with that. Just thought I would ask. Thanks for your time in advance.

not sure why, but when using the fauna ships, there fire rate randomly went down to -105%. disabling this mod fixed it.

i have two fleets of corvets, 25 in each. One fleet has military power of 320 other has military power of 25

Greetings, I wanted to ask. I seem to have set all the mods correctly in the loading order, but my fighters are still falling out of the ship in batches and flying in circles. What could be the reason for this?

is it supports 4.0.21?thanks

i cant tell if this is working or not for me not personally

thanks!!!

@دانيال أيفان مولا I am changing the autocannons graphics next update

crush, need update

yes multiple people told him including me, but it has been like this for months now

actually i think is a bug perhaps? autocannons used to fire as the gifs you put here and they had shells like coming out like if was a machinegun, now it fires the shells, they rotate towards the enemy ship, let me see if can send a link with pic

damn, did u change autocannon graphics? they dont look as the pics you posted, the pics you posted look way betterrr
