I understand there are no captains now, any mod I can install that *disables* need for captains so I can actually use more ships and functionalities that captains allow?

@Eviltoon that's good to know! Thanks!

Its still works even though it says out of date when you load it fyi

@The Ryanator unfortunately unlikely to have time to work on it but thanks for your interest and hope you do try it out and enjoy :D

Do you happen to still be working on this mod? I ask because I wanted to know if It would be better to wait for another update or just play the mod as is. Either way, the mod sounds awesome and I can't wait to try it out!

@firevasilisk awwwwh really!!! That's so cool

Hey, I just bought Avorion just because I wanted to play your mod
I think it's awesome

Ah I'm glad you liked it! I hopefully will go back to it one day, but not for a while. It was for version 2.3.2 I think. If not, its the one just before that. You can right click Avorion on Steam Library, go to Properties, then Betas, and choose from the drop down there.

Dang , really liked the mod:( and what version was this for? will have to check

Hi, probably not for a while sorry, haven't got time. I think you can roll the version back to play the mod though if you were interested.

mod getting updated at all for newest version??

Is there a guide for the mod anywhere?

I just started a fresh galaxy and you do start with iron build knowledge. What threw me off was when I loaded a starter ship and got the need building knowledge warning, I checked the spacedock and bought the building knowledge (iron) without checking to see if I actually had iron unlocked.

Thank you for the helpful feedback @Azareck. You shouldn't need to buy iron building knowledge, so I'll look into why that might be happening. Titanium building knowledge you normally just need to get deeper into the galaxy, but not very far at all.

There are currently no captains or missions. The player advanced ship orders / ship AI that you use a captain for in vanilla Avorion is lacking in the overhaul currently. This is high on the to do list and will eventually work without needing to hire a captain at all. I'm waiting for the upcoming free DLC before making any more changes.

This seriously needs some sort of guide. Not only do you need to buy iron building knowledge to even start building a ship, I've spent a good half hour jumping around trying to find titanium building knowledge to no luck. Same with captains, I haven't seen a single one in the hire crew page and stations don't seem to have missions anymore.

Ah that'll be it. Probably no fault of that admin toolbox mod but unfortunately I don't have the time to work on compatibility sorry. The overhaul basically sidesteps a lot of vanilla Avorion's coaxial weapon logic. The creative mode menu to spawn weapons does work normally though, so I don't know what the admin mod is doing differently. Also if you can spawn in the money and parts you can now just build the exact turret you want in the new spacedock UI. Thank you for the feedback though!

not mention i also use the turret builder mod as well it wouldn't let me create any other weapons besides coaxial weapons

i was using laserzwei's admin toolbox to spawn them in to my inventory it would normally give me the non coaxial version of the weapon 20 of each rarity but this time its giving me 20 of each rarity in coaxial weapons of that weapon type i know its not the admin tool cuz when i turned off the overhaul the weapons i spawn in with the admin tool are normal

@Shady how are you spawning them in, you mean like buying them from a shop or using the creative menu or another way? Thanks

i had an issue where all weapons i spawn in become coaxial not sure if its a bug or not but i had all other mods turned off besides this mod and it all got spawned in coaxial the only ones that didnt were the mining lasers and salvage lasers

Oh good point, I never considered auto mining lasers. Thanks for the bug report!

started up a fresh galaxy last night. having a little bit of an issue with the mining lasers, they work if used manually but they don't work in auto mode, they won't fire even if they had been firing manually. my guess is that the def that tells the autopilot that the roid is ore isn't properly set ??

ok found it named as Ore Processor ;)

Im not sure why but all sectors i visit have only gas mines and trade stations, i cant find rafinery anywhere. I visited like 30 sectors from two nations near start location

@sarah a.k.a hoboben thank you so much, that guy is the worst

@Mathus oh god yes first thing I did lmao

Exciting! I look forward to giving this a spin. :)

interesting, have you removed the tutorial guy that hounds you even if you have tutorials turned off? like the torp training or fighters?

Thank you! The priority bug fixes are live and save-game compatible.

Looking good so far

Two high priority bugs that I will aim to fix Friday:

* Mod breaks Tutorial

Workaround: don't play the mod with the tutorial enabled

* Can't refine newly mined ores or salvaged scrap in inventory

Workaroud: exit to main menu and then load back in (this is really annoying I'm sorry!)

This looks cool.
Didn't need that weekend anyway.

BUGFIX: refineries now spawn in places other than the start sector(!!!)
