As many other groups have done in the community, I’m experimenting with a patreon page. It hasn’t been advertised much so far, but it’s taken me a long time to decide to set one up. Think of it as a fire-and-forget way to support me. I made the contributions very lowball since:
-It won’t be a monthly contribution, but rather one that happens every MAJOR update. Reason is: Sometimes I release 2 minor module update per month, sometimes there’s a 2 month gap between updates.
-The contribution levels for now are at $1, $5 and $10. This should make it easy to become a patron.
-MAJOR being: a wave is fully in (I’ll count wave 12 and 13 as 1 wave), or a major feature becomes complete.
-Expect at least 2 major releases of the module per year, since there are 2 waves per year on average. Expect 1-3 major module features per year. So, if you contribute $1 per major release, that’ll cost you between 2$ and $5. If you contribute $5 per release, it’ll be $10 to $25 per year.
-When the autorange finder becomes complete, meaning, it’ll work with front aux arcs (Auzituck and Hounds’ Tooth), as well as mobile turret arcs (Lancer-Class Pursuit Craft), it will trigger
-Next big feature is a mouse driven graphical interface when you interact with ships; this will also trigger it
What do you get if you support me this way? Your name (if you opt in) will be publically visible in a Thank You list inside the module directly. When minimum goals are reached, I’ll do small and large ship raffles.
@Mu0n:
New maps:
- Added 3’x3’ Team Hooters vassal league season 5 sponsorship map
- “3’x3′ – Mustafar – InkedGaming” renamed to “3’x3′ – Mynock Squadron Podcast (Mustafar)”
- Added 3’x3’ Team Jawa vassal league season 5 sponsorship map
New cards:
- Nu Squadron Pilot (Star Wing pilot)
- Rho Squadron Veteran (Star Wing pilot)
- Lieutenant Karsarbi (Star Wing pilot)
- Major Vynder (Star Wing pilot)
- Linked Battery (cannon)
- Os-1 Arsenal Loadout (title)
- Saturation Salvo (elite talent)
New ship elements:
- Alpha-Class Star Wing integration into a ship piece
- Alpha-Class Star Wing dial
- Alpha-Class Star Wing Maneuver Reference card
New token:
- Jam token with shorcuts (Shift-J to +1, Ctrl-Shift-J to -1, Ctrl-Alt-Shift-J to set to 1)
- Jam token appears with autospawn
Autorange:
- Autorange added for the front firing arc – activate with CTRL-SHIFT-F
- Autorange added for the back auxiliary firing arc – activate with CTRL-SHIFT-V
- Not yet activated: front auxiliary arcs (YV-666 and Auzituck), mobile turret side shots (Lancer-Class Pursuit Craft) or Epic ship arcs.
Overlap manual detection, negative cases:
- If you hit ALT-C on any ship, it already announced if it overlapped with a ship, mine or obstacle. Added: if it DOES NOT overlap, it will say so.
- If you hit C on a movement template (such as the ones spawned during repositioning like barrel rolls or decloaks), it already announced if it overlaps with a mine or obstacle. Added: if it DOES NOT overlap, it will say so.
New shorcut for mobile turret (Lancer-class Pursuit Craft):
- CTRL-F triggers the arc on the mobile turret indicator’s side (works for all 4 directions)
- CTRL-V still also triggers the back arc (kept for legacy purposes)
- CTRL-SHIFT-V no longer triggers the left side arc – this is instead the trigger to calculated autorange options for the back aux arc
Visuals:
-
Adapted ajmath’s method of making the overlap flash visuals visible for all (not just the player interacting with a piece) for the following cases:
- Overlap event (for a template or the ship) during a ship repositioning (BR and decloak)
- Manual check of a ship overlap (ALT-C) on an obstacle, ship or mine, and for a template overlap (C) on an obstacle or mine
- Mine being dropped on a ship
Bugs dealt with:
- Autospawn: the Lancer-class Pursuit Craft will no longer present abnormally large gaps around its ship piece when it is spawned
@MrMurphM:
Autospawn:
- Spawning a list with Extra Munitions will automatically place the ordnance tokens on ordnance upgrade cards
- Spawning a list with Jabba the Hutt crew will automatically place the illicit tokens on illicit upgrade cards.
- Spawning a list with the Hound’s Tooth title will provide a Z-95 of the correct stats (including pilot skill) as well as a Z-95 dial
Spawn crit token from damage card:
- If you hit CTRL-T on a face down damage card, it will spawn a normal crit token on that card
- If you hit CTRL-T on a faceup damage card, it will spawn a crit token with the name of the critical damage on it for easy reference on the map.
Visual tweak:
- Target locks can now have Mirror Match colored dots (activated and cycled with CTRL-M) just like ships have always had
Bugs dealt with:
- Auto-collision detection during repositioning (barrel rolls, decloaks) will no longer trigger when its side condition icons, or action icons were responsible for the overlap (these false positives have been removed). Only the basic shape of the ship (including front and back nubs) will be used.
- Ship Reposition that leads to a ship going out of bounds (BR and decloak) will trigger a chat alert that it is out of bounds.
@ajmath:
Visuals:
-
Allowed the following events to properly display visual cues for ALL players and observers, rather than simply the player triggering this event:
- Post movement ship to ship overlap; ship to obstacle overlap, ship to mine overlap
Bugs dealt with
- Dealt with the ‘oldstylereinforce’ error message that happened every time you open up the module
@radarman5:
New art assets:
- Alpha-Class Star Wing ship art
- Alpha-Class Star Wing maneuver reference card
