This mod needs more polish but it has been a while since updated. I would stay away from it for a while.

Excellent mod! Can I use it on private server and add MES Zone to it?

@FockeWulf does it crash the game for you or do the infantry bots not spawn?

So I'm trying to use your mod but MES keeps giving me errors like this:
2024-10-12 07-52-55-642: MES / SpawnGroup: - Checking Group [GLA_5_Rebels] Using Conditions [GLA_5_Rebels]
2024-10-12 07-52-55-642: MES / SpawnGroup: - SpawnGroup Is Admin Spawn Only

@Atlas The 'Modular Encounters Systems' mod has a config file that's easy to edit:
Find 'Config-PlanetaryCargoShips.xml' and use Notepad++ to increase <MaxShipsPerArea>2</MaxShipsPerArea> to more than 2. You can also decrease MinSpawnTime and MaxSpawnTime there.

I found the config file here on my pc:
C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\SpaceEngineers\Saves\76561198012434477\[save file name]\Storage\1521905890.sbm_ModularEncountersSystems

Perhaps there's a conflict with another mod?

Strange... I just spawned in the Bomb Truck and it drives just as intended. They do spawn with their brakes on, but they turn their brakes off immediately after spawning (as I set it up in their behavior)

@wyomingwolf
Thank you for the reports! I'm not sure why steam doesn't notify me of new messages in this thread. I will check out the issue with their brakes being turned on first

Confirmed, they also tend to ignore static bases of the player. Had a Marauder spawn yet just drove by like I was a shadow

Sorry for more reports: Bomb Truck is spawning with brakes on, perhaps the Quad Cannon too (will confirm when I see it again)

Quad Cannon vehicles don't move nor engage if nearby with their turret weapon

Update: the technicals do spawn with weapons, just every now and then it may have been damaged while spawning or unlucky (getting some awesome combos with MES random weapon command)

1. How can i get more tanks to spawn in?
2. Your mod is amazing!

Vehicles moving

-Noted that the GLA Technical has no weapons on it when it spawns. Turns out to be just a buzzing fly going around me that is an easy target

Thank you for the report, I have fixed the issue. You can use the command
/MES.SPCS.GLA_Bomb_Truck
to see if it is now working as intended in your game as well

sweet and one other thing to report:

It looks like the bomb trucks have their parking breaks on and refuse to move when spawned (even if I bring my own wheeled grid nearby). Have yet to run into anything else as my threat score is low still

Transports (technical 1, technical 2, technical3 and the battle bus) can deploy some troops (currently look like green robots) to help attack the players
What's new?
A lot of behavior changes
Some wrecks that can be found
Toxin Tractors that create a field ('anthrax') that damages health
Rebalanced the units and when they spawn (based on threatscore)

What is new? And how does the infantry come into play? Do they spawn like npc's such a spiders or do they offload from a transport?

AK47S FOR EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!

Very nice. Wish there were more MES NPC rover mods like this.

Can I ghav sum shooz?

Bootyfull!

Extremely cool mod, thanks for making this!

thank you!

No scripts, just some behavior profiles and triggers within the Modular encounter systems framework

What Script are you using on your drones?

Ow! Ok! Ok! I will weld XD

holy shit I didn't expect to find GLA in space engineers workshop

I'm not sure I understand what you mean, sorry

I meant a hostile vehicle spawner. I want to spawn Mad Max style vehicles to bump and grind with. The vehicles work amazingly well with the automatons blocks but Spawning using event controllers and welders is a pain.

Oh I know, I just saw GLA and was like, it has been awhile, This is a really cool mod idea.

@condottiere Ah yes, I remeber that from the Wasteland Tire Thieves mod, I will link the smooth voxels mod on this page, thanks for the tip.

@foojak101 Yes you can! You may want to start in creative mode. If you're looking for a simple spawn rover to start with, I have one in the workshop here

@Acirno That would be amazing! It would however, be extremely hard to program. If I find a way, I will do it, but don't count on it being doable.

Do they upgrade after running over dead enimies?

Can i Use My own Rovers. I'm trying to build A Mad Max style world but i need a spawner

From another MES mod, I learned you can use the Smooth Voxels mod to help make rough planets more drivable for rover combat -- specifically NPC rovers.

I always appreciate an aggressive MES faction!

They do not have the AI blocks, but they use MES behavior profiles to assault the player(s) and their grids. They will spawn in, turn towards the target, drive towards it and when they arrive there they start attacking it

Do these have the new AI blocks on them and are they more than just "drive by" ground hostiles?
