Hi, I've tried to fix the reactor's energy issue using the solution you provided, but energy is still being lost at an alarming rate. So I'm not really sure what to do, or if I'm making a mistake while trying to apply the fix.

Yeah a fair argument, super tiny buttons though can be a bit harder to notice and get kind of get hard to click when the camera is moving around alot due to submarine motion & multiplayer lag weirdness.

I tried to space it so that the bottom part of the periscope hitbox is still fairly easy to click consistently. So try clicking them lower near the handles if that helps.

Oh also my gunners were complaining that the light switches on the guns should be smaller or more offset since they kept misclicking them.

Excellent sub, probably my favorite in the game!

The drones are incredibly useful. Stocked correctly they provide divers with O2, meds, ammo, loot storage, fire support, and route guidance. Changing ammo and restocking is very easy due to the drones being very close to fab, the O2 gen, and med. The drones take damage and can be repaired with a welder, but if you don’t the drone runs out of battery quickly and is lost forever. This isn’t super clear from the design, a label for the hull damage light would help.

More generally the ship is a solid workhorse. No blindspots but not overgunned, fast driver and descender, stays afloat with minor damage, surprisingly large storage. Drowning brig is fun but stopped working properly 3 missions in. Upper airlock is a pain in the ass to use but it’s not as bad as the Aboa or Passant. No depth charge is an odd choice.

Masterpiece of a ship, I just wish there was a T3 EK ship with similar capabilities. Great work!

Nevermind it's not an item-prefab overwrite big, seems like devs introduced new wiring-component bugs in the last update or something so there's phantom signal in the calculated load.

Temporary configuration fix: Access the circuit box and change the top right multiplication component's "Clamp Maximum" to 100.

Keep in mind though that if you've applied upgrades to the submarine's reactor, or certain engineer talent upgrades. You'll need to recalculate the fission rate by dividing 100 by whatever the new max reactor output is.

( Also its generally ill advised to run with more than 2 rods, and if running 4 rods only enable automatic control from a 'cold start' - this is just general good advice with pretty much all reactors. )

What's your modlist?

dude your reactor settings suck as hell. it's unstable and don't work correctly

Reactor sometimes bug and don't do enough power

Love this submarine, probably my favorite one

I hope you do more drone subs, theyre neat and is the first thing I look for when checking out new designs

hey man, don't be so harsh on yourself, its actually amazing design and im looking forward to more of your designs, we were shooting those drones with coilguns and they were just flying away comically, that was fun, but we got concerned that enemies would not be able to destroy them, if they are destructible then im happy to annouce that we are gona buy this sub in shipyard today to explore the deep seas of europa :D hopefully we will reach the great seas

Dumb MFs wanted a drone ship - I guess I'm not making any more in the future.

@komik2 drones are destructible, although melee collision hitbox might be buggy / blocked by the gun hitbox possible.

First of all, great sub, but i have a questions, are those drones destructible? few test runs show thats not the case and that seems totaly op

ok after extensive testing this sub.....i notice something after my crew and me noticed its fucking dark like need more lights mostly in the ballast and drone/airlock exits got boarded by monsters due to no one noticing the dark areas

Nice submarine :3

Question: does this sub require EK like the rest?

I would be happy if you remade the Stiletto, and her horn, it’s beautiful

@Savage Servant
Makes sense, the vanilla welder hitboxes have always been kind of screwed up.

I found a small problem when trying to remove ballast flora from ballast tank C (the small one on the left from airlock.)
It is so small that no matter how you position yourself the plasma cutter doesn't reach the pump.
Could the pump be moved to a side, closer to one of the corners so that you can stand on the opposite side and blast the ballast flora? I know you can use the flamer and stuff but it's costly and flames going around will burn the character.

edit i might have fixed it buy moving your coil loader up a step they look worse but i can click on the loaders

i guess my setup is to blame

@Soft Head
You might have to move the docking ports up further on your submarine to reach the ammo & top storage.

@video is the drone ammo albe to be swaped ? im sure it is but on sub i linked below i can seem to click on the loader

the revuk and daima have had success in my crew in terms of vibes for undersea trucking, a large T3 transport within the same design line would be nice as an alternative to the berilia

Savage Servant@
I'm not sure I was able to reproduce the exact issue, but I did notice bots were trying to repair the lower ballast wall through the tiny gap of the duct. So I've moved the duct to the right and slightly tweaked the node positions in ballast to hopefully fix path tunneling issues.

very good

There's a small issue of bots losing their way in ballast tanks D and E when they're fully flooded.

Been following you since ur EK mods, glad ur still making content for Baro :)

Also, even with the turbine speed maxed out, I can't past 20 horizontal speed.

@Leras
Prior XML issue broke docking ports too, fixed.

Nice sub, but I can't dock on stations

@Videogames thanks so much Video i refited a cool sub i found

https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3376953669

@Soft Head
Here's the prefab for the control terminals.

You'll have to attach drones to the sub yourself though.
If you know how to make docking ports & link shuttles to them.

Those with a keen eye might have already noticed alot of other interconnected references and callbacks to various companies and equipment manufacturers.

@lumen
Honestly a really long story, but it was originally an 'in-universe' engineering corporation: "Emma&Kiashku" which was a part of sort of linking all of my mods together into one combined/continuous narrative. Eventually it became a shorthand moniker to call it E.K. and the title stuck as a kind of 'brand' of it's own - outside of it's meaning and role in-universe.

What does the EK stand for?

@videogames if you could add item assembly that would be great im still a real noob sub builder...sracth that tweaker is more fitting

@Suibeew
Sure can do when I've got time free this week.

@Soft Head
The wiring is actually mostly exposed in editor (and labeled) in the roof above the drone command room, so it's not that hard to implement really. Or you can just copy the nav terminals directly including the wifi. I'll add a link to an item assembly later in a bit if it still doesn't make sense.

I like your subs a lot, one thing though could you make a single mod that contains multiple subs for mod pack simplicity sake? I could do it too with your permission if you don't want to.

@videogames any change you could make some item assembly for adding the drones to other subs?

@ASSBLASTER2000
Actually it's already linked. But it got set to 'non interactable' by accident when I was selecting the decorative medical screen on top of it. Fixed.

Really nice submarine, though you have forgotten to tick "display side by side" on the medical fabricator, so it's not usable.

This sub looks really good. My recommendation is to make a pvp oriented submarine.

@operator dont worry about him, he used to do the same for FTD years back, this is just how he is

Video please, if you are in trouble give us a sign, blink twice, the devs have you hostage right and are forcing you to create these awesome detailed subs right?
Seriously no one is as consistent as you at putting out amazing submarines, thank you!

no way, so cool

Can't wait to try this out. Also a more roleplay/traitors oriented sub sounds like it would be cool, more mission mode oriented subs are always welcome

XML file got corrupted when uploading, should be fixed now.

The initial electromagnetic gun had no shooting angle.
