WEIRD UPDATE 1 I drafted and posted this, so its easy to read and is in order.
hello Folks.
Mod still works...ish. I'm not good at this, all I know is the weight for tech showing isn't correct. I'm not good enough to figure out how to fix the language for it to read correctly.
The game still recognizes it if triggered...but it hides it so we cant use it.

So, it recognizes if triggered? Use Console commands.
1-Trigger the mod menu in the policies
2-enable the ship modules setting,
3-disable the AI from having to use it so the AI can use it to
4-follow below

Use the following commands while the mod is enabled.
After you unlock a specific tech
Input their respective command to unlock their drop pod.

Type the following first command to get started, since its weird and most of the time it doesn't show.
effect give_technology = { tech = tech_pasmod_assault_army_default }

WEIRD UPDATE 2:


The ones below are after certain requirements. They are obvious. but I typed them for ya now enjoy your mod...for now. Hopefully someone updates it.

After inputing 1st command and getting corvettes (which you start with already)
effect give_technology = { tech = tech_pasmod_assault_corvette }

After destroyers
effect give_technology = { tech = tech_pasmod_assault_destroyers }

After Cruisers
effect give_technology = { tech = tech_pasmod_assault_cruisers }

After getting clone army
effect give_technology = { tech = tech_pasmod_assault_army_clone }

After genetic ascension
effect give_technology = { tech = tech_pasmod_assault_army_gene }

WEIRD UDPATE 3:

You have to be Machine Intelligence Tier 2, input it at the start?
effect give_technology = { tech = tech_pasmod_assault_army_drop_pod }

Yo have to be machine intelligence
effect give_technology = { tech = tech_pasmod_assault_army_artillery_drone }

After Psionic armies are unlocked
effect give_technology = { tech = tech_pasmod_assault_army_psionic_force }

You must be authoritarian and unlock slave army
effect give_technology = { tech = tech_pasmod_assault_army_slave_army }

After unlocking droid workers
effect give_technology = { tech = tech_pasmod_assault_army_droid_army }

From what I see it still works...
Sometimes it doesn't show the innitial techs so console command the beginning tech and the rest kick in.

Aside from having to input the console commands for tech manually, the mod...seems to work? I gota test some stuff

@celellie

Please update it.
I'd be one of the many who would be grateful. Is a simple mod.

i neeeeed an update

is this still working? if not i can update it for you guys depending on how complicated it is

4.0?

Does anyone know if anyone else has updated this mod for the current version of the game or are we still unable to play with stuff like this?

잘지내심? 디스코드도 탈퇴하시고 스팀아이디도 쪽지 막은 것 같아서 여기다 씀. 다른건 아니고 함선 모드를 하나 새로 작업해보려고 하는데, PAS 모드의 코드와 아이콘 같은 것들을 좀 가져다 써도 되려나 해서 허락받으려고... 가능하겠지?

I do wish it was just one, upgradable component tho. Sacrificing multiple slots for armies hurts.

Seems to be working. More details in the discussion.

Skull Man and others who say that this is broken.. could you provide some details?
I am wondering if there are mod compatibility issues going on with this mod and other mods.
I tested just this mod on 3.12 and it is working as expected. Ships with drop pod modules are dropping armies onto hostile planets.
I am asking folks for details as I am maintaining XVCV's "Machine & Robot Expansion" mod and if it turns out that there are game-breaking issues with this, then I will look into making an updated copy of this mod that is compatible.

I started a bug report thread here in the discussions for this mod so we can have conversations with replies: https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/discussion/2017870391/4411920485714910302/

The mod is outdated and will crash your game.

update pls

Broken in 3.12

Anyone else able to confirm if this still works?

For Super Earth!

mod compatible with mod space marine company?

Works for me!

Does this still work though?

@Devil pyro the author retired sadly. So no more updates unless someone else does the work.

Are you going to update this mod soon?

@Starfoth The Burgundy Silk Rug
I will check about this. Thanks for the comment.

does it works ?

No it has defenders. In fact both the planetary defense armies and occupation armies both sit together in tenuous tension on the same planet.
It's also not orbital surrender because that givers a popup when it happens and I do get a "planetary invasion successful" notification implying the armies dropped and occupied the planet without fighting.

This or the planet doesn't have any defenders. I'm not sure.

Whenever I try to use the army modules they just instantly occupy the planet without fighting

How likely is the game to break if i remove this mod?

@Tachtra
When you start a new game or open the mod menu (look for edicts), you will see the option 'mod ship types'. Enable it will allow to research mod ship classes techs.

hey, I am currently playing on the most recent stellaris version with only this mod enabled, and I am not seeing the new ship types appearing in the game. Is this for now supposed to be like this, or is it a bug?

This is pretty cool.

Unrelated but sorely desired; can you do anything (or have you already done anything) with alternate ship sections? Titans are boring with just large slots and a mega cannon.

Jesus christ! I now noticed that I replaced the description of this page to my machine mod. I reverted it.

@Rahl81
Thanks. I've added the link in the mod description.

Hello, I have translated your mod into my language (Italian)
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2965091461

@XVCVI tested the mod alone a test run using cheats, just to make sure that it was NOT another mod I was using that was causing issues, but nope still not working as intented so I removed it. 100% sure that for machine it is not working, I have NOT tested for hivemind, but then again I only play in 3.2.2.

Cool! I know it wasnt your mod, but do you know what happened to that PAAS: Expanded submod? The one that added the little auxiliary troop modules?

@Escanor
That's for Machines. As far as I remember.

what is the 'Artillery Drone Unit' available too? is that an option for machines/hives?

@Escanor
"it seems that the pods are not working as if since the pods " designations " are NOT the same as the machine empire army troop " designation " it does NOT work."

I would like to see some screenshots about this. Also, this mod is updated for v3.7 and I don't know how it would perform on v3.2. (It may be fine but it may not.)

I am playing on 3.2.2 by the way maybe that have an impact !

@XVCV Hello there I just tested your mod and I am hyped, I have a question tho, I tried to use it with machine empire and it seems that the pods are not working as if since the pods " designations " are NOT the same as the machine empire army troop " designation " it does NOT work. I have goes far into the game thinking that maybe I needed another research but I did all researches on the pods, so am I missing something ? Cheers :))

Anyone know what happened to the 'Expansion' submod for this?

Seconding the Raiding question. I just popped in to ask.

How does this work with the raiding bombardment stance?

so question, is there a way for you to set the ships from your mod to use other army's

nsc compatible?

바닐라 제국 함선셋 선택 시 행성 강습함 모델링이 3등분되어 있는데 해결이 어려울까요?

can i use this mod in the 3.6?
