Though interestingly when one of the ships weighs a lot more than the other the people in the bigger ship might only be knocked off their feet, so for a bigger ship ramming into a much smaller one at 10-30 m/s could be a great tactic for taking out enemy crews while leaving both ships intact. Likewise, small fighter craft often smash into bigger ships with no visible effect, when they ought to be wreaking massive devastation.Īnd then there's the momentum, even ramming at a few tens of meters per second could create enough force for the people inside to slam into the walls at dangerous if not lethal speed. Survivors are not unknown, and the effect is usually depicted as 'Ship A crashes into ship B and ship B crumples and breaks apart in slow motion,' where it should look like, and is only rarely is portrayed as, 'Ship A crashes into ship B and both ships are vaporized in a titanic fireball'. In fact, the usual mistake is not to make ramming work too well but to make it work not well enough. And that's not even taking into account the ramming ship detonating its reactors and munitions when it hits. a spaceship traveling at 94% of the speed of light does damage equal to its own weight in antimatter. An object impacting at 6 km/sec would do damage equal to 4 times its weight in TNT, and would be said to do '4 Ricks' worth of damage. An object traveling at 3 km/sec does damage equal to its own weight in TNT note Among hard SF enthusiasts, this is known as Rick Robinson's Law of Space Combat. Most spaceships are far heavier, and can go far faster. The impact of a heavy freight train going 60 mph is equal to that of 1 to 2 tons of TNT - it's just over a much smaller area, and going in one direction.

Updated values and calculations to adapt to patch 0.95.In science fiction, even if a ship has shields that can shrug off atomic weapons, ramming it with another ship always manages to take it down.

Fixed compatibility issue with Seeker (TAS now only affects ships in the player's fleet).

Fixed NullPointer error when loading the game.

Implemented compatibility with 'AUTOMATED_NO_PENALTY' ship tag introduced in patch 0.96a (no functional changes).

(Hopefully) fixed negative ship weight bug.

Implemented compatibility with Tahlan Shipworks 1.2.1.

Automated points base reduction will be divided by these modifiers (making AI cores less effective on larger ships), and base maintenance cost will be multiplied by the modifiers (reflecting the vast amount of resources required to manage larger ships): Having an AI core as an officer will also cause a hefty increase to its monthly supply cost:Ī modifier will be applied to these base values depending on hull size. This reduction depends on the type of core:

This mod applies a reduction to the 'automated ship points' of any ship outfitted with an AI core. You'll really have to think about how much increasing the power of a given ship is worth to you. The drawback is an increase in the amount monthly supplies required to keep your ships operational. It's possible, for example, to have up to three Radiants in your fleet without suffering any CR maluses.

I created this mod with the intent of making it more viable to have powerful automated fleets. There's nothing I can do at the moment, though I'm working on fixing the issue.

If you already have some cores integrated into ships by the time you install this mod, that ship's CR calculation will stay bugged.

Otherwise, the game won't update their CR according to the mod. When using this mod on a preexisting savefile, you'll need to remove all cores that you already have on your ships and then put them back in.

After all, you wouldn't expect a giant AI core with the capacity to manage entire planets to be easy to sustain, would you? The good news is that small ships will be reasonably cheap, but as hull size increases, so do maintenance costs. With this mod, when you slap a supercomputer on a hull, it will actually make the ship more autonomous, and decrease its 'automated ship points,' leaving you with the ability to increase the size of your automated fleet even more! But beware: all of this added computing power will require constant maintenance and a large energy supply. If your automated fleet relies on the computing power of the rest of the fleet to coordinate itself - and that's why having too many automated ships leads to a decrease in maximum efficiency for all of them - then grabbing a tonne of GPUs and stitching them together with a ship should actually lift some of the weight from your regular ships, not add even more! In the vanilla game, AI officers increase the 'automated ship points' of the ship they're attached to, and to me it doesn't make sense. This mod intends to change the way AI officers assigned to automated ships affect the rest of your fleet.
