one thing: i think the crew are using *my* fuel in the FU version of things. I haven't viewed the source and won't have time for a bit, but is there an easy way to check for them, vs myself, in your existing code that I could simply add into my own lua to if/else it ?

(also need to make them not use the mech flight mode, as they *alwayts* have it on. its comical but not desired)

 

LoPhatKao updated NPC Mechs with a new update entry:

Custom Crew Mechs

Is there a way to "reroll" your companion's mechs? Because right now my companion's loadout just suuuucks.

 

I've got a problem here... every time I spawn crew mechs, They keep on making noisy sounds

 

Do you have this on GitHub?
I wanted to collaborate / create an add on and I'm unable to see it there.
Downloading it after every update is also an option, but not as convinient al all

 

Even better: Is there a plan to allow the player to build the crew mech?
That way you start with the basic one, and upgrade them together with you.

This is a very good mod. I don't instantly die in space encounters!
My mech crew killed a friendly NPC, but this mod is still very helpful.

 

Wow this is AWESOME!!
Can enemies NPC have their own mech too?! I'm ready for a mech brawl!

 

is it possible to make them be able to get off their mech when on the landing bays?

 

Is this compatible with Mech Overhaul?

 

Would the mod be compatible with Supper's COmbat Overhaul? Some of his changes affect crewmembers.

 

there is a bug that prevent showing the mech parts of the mod srw mechs

 

does it work with vanilla mechs not the mod?
