Aux Module Expansion Stellaris

Aux Module Expansion Stellaris

A simple mod that adds a bunch more choices for your auxiliary slots. There are tiered models of each module, each tied to assorted vanilla technologies, one unique module, and two new modules available via a new tech, for a total of almost 80 auxiliary items!

Please note that certain components may be bugged or broken, due to extremely inconsistent scope requirement for certain modifiers (some things want ship_modifier, others want modifier, and it isn’t clear what wants which until something silently breaks). If you find something that doesn’t work as advertised, leave a bug report comment!

No translation into other languages yet. Localization files are all in english. Various costs and power consumption values are early balance/WIP, so may not be 100% perfect.

If you’re using Aux Sensor Expansion, you can safely upgrade to AME (this mod) and disable Aux Sensor Expansion; AME includes the ASE components with the exact same object/entity names.

Overwriting: This mod doesn’t overwrite any vanilla files. It may not be compatible with every other mod on the workshop, especially those that do modify vanilla files, though.

Compatibility: AME is balanced around an assumption of 2-4 auxiliary slots per ship, perhaps 5 at the most. I cannot be held responsible for your own poor decisions, like a ship composed of nothing but guns[www.awkwardzombie.com].

Recommendations:
* folk’s Ship Power Stations can significantly increase the amount of juice you have to throw around, and make fitting those weapon cores slightly less punishing.
* Issen’s Adv. Ship Behaviour Modules is arguably essential for getting the most out of your fleets and designs.
