Thanks @Metamartian, I have much more to add yet.

 

This is just the first step. The task of keeping everything running through the Alpha is exciting. Me amuses much.   I recommend it.

 

Pioneer is a great base for this kind of thing. It has a lot of support already, and even more in the near future.

In Alpha 31, Pioneer lost the possibility to change the color of some ships.

 

Consequently, PAINSHOP module is now called "Change of Enrolls" and does just that.

 

Only for those who are kept updated by compiling the master on GitHub or last nightly binary builds of Pioneer.

 

 

Note: This does not work with Alpha30

Just a point of order, alpha 31 does not exist yet. Its incorrect to say anything about it. None of us yet know what the final release will look like.

Ship colors can be set using the Ship.SetFlavour method. That's why the old methods were removed - no point having two ways to do the same thing.

Note that this method will only work for LMR ships. SGModel uses a different mechanism for coloring ships (patterns). These will be made available to Lua in some way in due time. We haven't yet figured out what that looks like yet.

Do not fret robn, is for information only. Scout keep updated, and informed users.

 

I know that in the future we will have something, perhaps better.

The problem is that i use another Parabolic Antenna for Radar (scanner), I like the isotropic sweep. I forgot to change it in the other Eagles.

@Vuzz

Ubuntu is a Linux distribution generally regarded, at least historically, as being a nerdy thing that only nerds play with.

Neckbeard = "Derogatory term for slovenly nerdy people who have no sense of hygene or grooming. Often related to hobbies such as card gaming, video gaming, anime, et. al."

 

Meant in, self-deprecating, jest in this case obviously 😀

Thanks Stas, I had synchronized with master but had not published. Here goes.

 

 

Removed redundant sub-models.

Some graphical improvements in Eagle models.

Some improvements in texts of quests.

And other minor improvements.

 

 

Same as above and update with master.

Due to the degree of instability (by art migration of LMR to SGM) of the new alpha, I decided to publish two versions of Pioneer Scout Plus.

 

PioneerAlpha30.png

 

Download Pioneer-Scout-Plus-light-A30-Gold.zip to Alpha30 (The last stable for play)

 

You can download Pioneer Alpha30 from here: Win32 Linux64 Linux32 OSX

 

Some news

 

Golden Control Panel.

Fix wrong texture in ASP Explorer

New sounds effects.

 

The package includes the following ships optimized for Scout:

 

Without Fuel Scoop

 

 20 t Eagle Long Range Fighter (Start at Earth and New Hope)

 22 t Eagle MK-II

 22 t Eagle MK-III

 

With Fuel Scoop

 

 36 t Eagle MK-IV "Bomber"

 40 t Imperial Hunter (p66 New) (Start at Achernar)

 50 t Adder

 80 t Cobra Mk III (p66 New) (Start at Lave)

 90 t Constrictor

120 t Asp Explorer

 

120 tons is the highest ideal for missions Delivery, Taxi, or Scout. More tonnage no benefit.

 

Rebalanced all other ships for playing time.

 

The rewards are greater, in missions: Scout, Taxi and Delivery. You should not need to use Ctrl-M to buy a ASP Explorer 🙂

 

Now, you (your ship) belong to a faction. The player can gain significant benefits knowing this, or big losses if ignored.

 

Membership of the faction is determined in enrollment of the ship, at the startup.

 

Start on Earth: FE (Federation)

Eg The ship-registered "FE-1234" is registered to "flag" of the Federation.

 

Start in New Hope: CO (Confederation)

Eg The ship-registered "CO-1234" is registered to "flag" of the Confederation.

 

Start on Achernar: RE (Red)

Eg The ship-registered "RE-1234" is registered to "flag" the Red ( Empire ).

 

Start in Lave: IN (Independent)

Eg The ship-registered "IN-1234" is registered to "flag" Independent.

 

Of course there are "XX-123456789 ..." and more, but probably will not have more than we need in game.

 

You can also change the flag in any station.

You will have privileges within their faction.

If you are a member of SPA, their enrollment will be "SP-xxxx"

If you are a member of Scouts Pilots Associates, you will have privileges throughout the galaxy.

Alpha31 (To experimenters)

Everything mentioned for Alpha30 and:

 

Crew joins in Scout.

 

Some (very small)  improvements and fix coupling in the new hoop_spacestation.

You can download Pioneer Alpha31 from here: Win32 Linux64 Linux32 OSX

Hi, thank you for this mod.

 

It seems I cannot complete scan missions although I have the radar mapper equipped (otherwise I wouldn't have got the mission anyway I guess) and have circled the target various times in low orbit already but the mission still is shown as "active" in the mission list and I haven't received any message yet.

 

Do you have any advice on what might be the problem?
