[MOD]Star Trek - Enterprise 1701-A (by MattsterT)

[MattsterT]

Hi everyone,
I'm not sure about the policy towards modding but here's my attempt to add my favourite enterprise variant to the ship roster, balanced similarly to the Kestrel it should be fun to use without being game-breaking.

Description
Balanced for gameplay
Now you have the chance to battle your way through the cosmos aboard the star ship Enterprise; create a crew of your three favourite star-fleet officers and get under-way with a phaser bank, torpedo launcher, shielding and the option to add a captured cloak, transporter or rear launching drone bays to your ship.

Mod Information
- This ship will replace the default Kestrel class ship but not the second variant
- The pack comes in an extracting zip / rar which needs to be copied over the game directory
- I've included instructions and the files necessary to restore your game to it's default state however I would always recommend backing up your game files yourself as a precaution.
- Without a mod loader the current version is rather large but I will hopefully fix that in later updates

Supports
- Shields
- Cloaking
- Transporter
- Drones
- 4 Weapons

this is a Work In Progress so please let me know if you run into any problems or have any suggestions for improvements and I'll keep this thread as up-to date as possible.

- Explosion Gib possitioning is off
- Crew moving to the O2 room in the nacelle is currently buggy but functional

Installation
Regular version

- Create an un-modded backup copy on your desktop
- Extract the "Resources" folder from your chosen download
- Copy and replace your "Resources" folder in your game directory with the extracted "Resources" folder

Un-Installation
- Navigate to your games "Resources" folder (In the game directory)
- Open the "Resources" folder and rename resources.dat to resources.datSTE

I would get this but I don't want to replace krestel

Wait how do you get to engine to oxygen room when there's no connecting rooms?

the crew have access via the connecting struts, It's hard to demo with a screenshot but works fine in-game

Yes I'm afraid it wont be compatible with other mods but if you want to just try it out I provided the files to set your game back to it's default state if you don't like it

<Update>
I've just added a "Slim version" which contains only the required game files and not the backup's making it a much easier way to download the mod

Looks cool. Now if only it were possible to add new ships without replacing old ones...

Hopefully it will be possible in future, the only problem is that some of the ship information appears hard coded. For now anyway the best I can offer you is a full version with the ability to flip between modded and un-modded by renaming the two resource files.

Great all i need now is a sandbox procedurally generated universe replacing all ships with star trek/firefly ships with a large variety of weapons and secrets and missions.
