Chicken Hunt, this mod is one of the best in Stellaris. I have used it for years

I had 4.0 without biogenesis and everything worked fine. I just bought biogenesis, I saw you said Maulers weren't working correctly

Just had a battle with 4 ships total, 2 Maulers and the biogenesis frigate (whatever it is called) against a mining drone

The Maulers stood still and did nothing. The mining drone and the frigate stayed at a distance and lobbed shots at each other. They did not approach.

Again, mod worked fine last night without biogenesis, on 4.0, and same mod list otherwise. I just bought biogenesis and same mod list in use, and all 4 ships involved had odd, stationary behavior. So it doesn't seem to be specific to maulers.

I turned the mod off and they fought per vanilla usual. I only have base ASB installed and the enhanced particles turned off

Are bioship movements bugged at all?

@MARTI3LO I dont want to seem rude but have you given a move order for the fleet?

Its normal to ships stay around in one place, after one battle the fleet stay in the same place and dont move

I don't know what is causing it but i use this addon alone with the latest patch with All DLC and it keeps causing Desyncs. of "random_count" as soon as i disabled this sole addon it resolved the desyncs for the most part. might be worth trying to look into but i don't know if this addon is causing it or not.

@Hyggin Yes. If you dont like the longer battles you can get the addon that disables it but I recommend keeping longer battles. It can be big noticeable at first, because the vanilla battles literately take 3 seconds.

Does this make battles take longer? Felt like my fleets were taking ages just to take down a single outpost

@GG_Seven I dont think so. Thats a whole overhaul mod with its own effects. I think they already use some of my effects for lasers etc (could be wrong tough)

Does this mod work with Star Trek: New Civilisations?

\o/

I am back and motivated to start modding again, made some progress in some small bugs today (thnx for reporting!)

@Noble @Tia Yes

@Marcel Soares No but there is an ironman version in the collection

@Prax ty, behavior will be fixd

@Big Boy Boris @joe @[F.I.S.T] diva.Y.J rl @Reichtag realspace-shps in scaling combined with asb causes fleet strength bug, maybe i can fix idk yet.

@Large_Gremlin Yes

@Sleuth Kog'Maw Its meant to be empty because the effects come from muzzle, its a trick.

@John Helldiver Thats not asb I think

@Deep♂Dark yu can try the modding den discord for help

@General_Qwert64 Yes. All effects only generate when in system view

@J Rockit thnx

@PythonicArgent its not perfect yet, I am looking for a way to make it shoot more 3d

I don't mean to bother but when will the autocannon GFX thing and the engineer bug be fixed?

Is the mod achievement compatible?

Thank you for keeping it compatible with 3.14. I'll remember that.

Also seeing the duplicate (but less effective) engineer trait, traced it down to this mod. I guess it's to go with making slower battles, but for some reason it's not actually replacing the vanilla trait. Very strange. Fixable by remming (put a # in front of every line) out all the lines in !_ASB_admiral_traits.txt and then making it read-only, at least until a fix is found.

Hey man! This is one of my favorite mods for Stellaris!

Any word on the fix for Maulers? They just float in place getting shot :<

@Blazingdevil
With this mod it slows the battles down by reducing the Ship Fire Rate by a set amount and in doing so reduces hostile fleets like Mining Drones below 0% SFR which causes their fleet power to drop to 1-3.

Does this mod have backwards-compatibility with 3.14?

With regard to the autocannon gfx bug I'm pretty sure it's just missing an input after "texture = ". In the file under gfx/projectiles/ap_ballistics it's just blank

Hey, when I use this mod, I can't advance time to make things faster, it means that the ships, that became way slower, can't be sped up! O|

I found a weird bug maybe with this mod? Fleet powers are reduced to the number of ships a fleet has, ie: A fleet with 3 ships will have 3 military power, a fleet with 5 ships will have 5 military power, however some random fleets after i expand them alot wont be affected and some random starbases aren't affected

The autocannon gfx are sometimes not working properly with certain shipsets, its on to-do list.

I've also got the problem with the autocannons not properly working.

Love this mod ! just wonder any tutorial for making patches? I am using kurogane shipset， the explsion always appear beneath the ship ,looks a bit weird

@DaViper
Thanks, that was my line of thinking too actually but I wanted to make sure

@EJR, as that is listed as 'compatible' with no instructions (while you see real space given info) they should live together regardless of order.
When I ran NSC (dumped that a while back) I put NSC below (later) ABS, if that helps.

What is the load order for this and NSC?

I was wondering, do the affects of this mod only take affect when the player is watching the battle or in the system of a battle, and so AI battle offscreen won't have added performance issues?

This mod is preventing Ancient Ruination Glare from appearing on ship design for Paradox Titan. Tested by unsubscribing then resubscribing. Am also using UI Overhaul Dynamic (conflict possibly?).

"I dont know why i have this problem with this mod. Everytime i turned it on, my Ship firepower reduce to single digit. Is someone probably knew where the problem is? Thank you"

Same here - also currently working on an AI Mod which changes defines, but for some reason this mod changes AI Behaviour (could have something to do with the balance changes).

There appears to be a duplicate Engineer leader trait which takes up an extra slot, it effectively does nothing other than a 0.1% boost to daily ship repair, but since its seperate a leader can have two engineer traits, with one being functionally useless.

Same issue with autocannons they all shoot directly downwards.

HiHi! I love this mod ! And I just found a problem when play with NSC, some ship like Dreadnough do not have sinking animation, it will stay still and the explosion appear beneath it.

hello! seem to be having an issue with the auto-cannon graphics?

when firing for one they do not accurately follow the target, being off on the z or y axis
and in addition the graphics for all auto-cannons are now yellow rectangles?

I've tried unsubscribing and resubscribing, even gone through my entire modlist to see if it was a conflict (it was not) but I don't see many other people complaining about this issue so I feel a little stuck as to what is going on?

I dont know why i have this problem with this mod. Everytime i turned it on, my Ship firepower reduce to single digit. Is someone probably knew where the problem is? Thank you

@Serious Looks like your launcher did not download the mod properly. Try this:
1. unsubscribe from mod
2. delete "mods_registry.json" -> User\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Stellaris
3. delete "ugc_1878473679.mod"-> User\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Stellaris\mod
4. subscribe to mod

Yes, I'm sure it was opened

@Serious Did you activate it in the launcher?

Mod can't run normally in the game, for example, the added battle special effects optimization can't be displayed normally here, just the original special effects

@「Axophia™」 Hi there, if you think the battles are too long you could get the shorter battles addon from the collection

Hi I tried this mod like several updates before and uninstalled it because it made space battle too long like on vanillia it needs to be like 10 battles finish in order to finish in ASB for only one battle is it the same or something changed? thank you in advance

@leovn119 go to mod location and then ASB\common\ASB_defines.txt

Then edit FLEET_BASE_FORMATION_SCALE and FLEET_BASE_FORMATION_DIV

@DaViper double clicking on a ship and following it in slow-mo is always a cool thing to watch

Sorry for bein' a noob. (no I'm not. Heh.) But how in the hell do you guys follow the battles? I've tried "immersive/cinematic (both out of date) plus 'default' cameras, and I swear this is a PITA just to focus on things, let alone watch the action for more than glimpses.
(Also, as a newer player, I do probably have more popups than a 'vet', but damn that interrupts things as well.)

A bit of advice would be nice. (Otherwise, these mods are awesome.)

Hi. I'm trying to make it so that my ships stay closer to their original formation when they begin combat instead of spreading out all the way. Do you know what value I need to tweak ?

@Escaton This is intentional. It is so that the battle usually starts out as a firing line standoff, and as the battle progresses it becomes more chaotic and ships begin broadsiding, fleets mixing and if it keeps going for really long (e.g both parties keep sending fleets) the whole system will be in complete combat, causing even more epic battle scenes. (check out 2nd trailer were there is a battle that was already happening for about 4 minutes)

yeah unusable without editing some of the mod files myself. artillery corvettes as an example do not even try to keep distance anymore.

Yes i noticed that the mods combat ai just lets all ships fly close my organic stingers with artillery computers fly into close combat...

Hello! Did this mod originally space ships further apart? Because it doesn't anymore
