Would be really nice if you could tell us exactly how that progression bar works once you're at max reputation with a faction, because i'm stuck at like 990k/1M in progression, but there is no salvage left in the yard...
Well it's based of the damage you do when salvaging with a valid license.
1.000.000 seems higher then what I have in the default config (should be 100k) but you should be able to get the missing experience from another scrapyard from the same faction as the experience is shared / tied to the factionIndex and not a single scrapyard.

ScrapyardPlus - by DNightmare
(it's actually by me, not Dirty like in your list :D But he has a plugin in MoveUI to support extended info from this mod inside his)
The classical "Works on my machine" running 0.19 (and tested on 0.17 before that)
So far no bugreports from other users or server-owners.
-
Thank you for taking the time to update the mod!
You're welcome.
Did some more tweaks and restructures. Nothing gameplay wise, so v1.3.2 users can skip the current release.
It's more like some preparation work etc. (and learning travisCI ;D)
-
I ran into an issue while using this mod: I can't seem to sell my ship to a Scrapyard. I click the button "Sell", but nothing happens.
Is this a bug caused by the mod?
yay for thread-necro but: I've fixed your issue and updated the mod along the way.. v1.3.2 out now :)
Have fun.
-
Dirty and me kinda fell into a black-hole called "Factorio" xD
He's on track with updating the modpack again and i'll prolly take a look if something needs fixing for 0.15 over the weekend...
maybe even make some progress on the events / respawning system
-
That's exactly what I'm working on with the 1.4 event-system :)
-
Well yeah, the update replaced my hook / loading so that's why there were issues.
On the flipside: ScrapyardPlus only extends the vanilla logic and saves to the same tables etc., that's why the extended timers will always be there and even work, once purchased, w/o the mod. (and why MoveUI works with and without my mod. No witchcraft needed)
The things that got changed (faction-fixes and chat messages) were included in 1.3.1 while we were on 0.14.x Beta so everything should be running smooth. Will look into the details nontheless when back home.
RL = real life :P doing 60-70hrs/week kinda takes away the time from modding and recharging my batteries.
About the remote control: It's based on two "channels" which I use to communicate between player and the captained ships. You have to visit the systems where your fleet resides in to get the corresponding script attached, after that they report back if the system/fleet is active or inactive, etc.
The UI will include a dropdown of all active ships + maybe a small plan-displayer so you see what is what. After selecting a ship you could select the possible command on the right side, a bit like in the PoC.
About fleetcommand: I'll try and make mine work as hazzlefree as possible. If it's in a stable state, I'm looking into how to extend the options, or incorporate stuff form the other mod, we'll see...
For now, my focus lies on ScrapyardPlus 1.4 and getting the events done. After that, I'll switch back to RemoteControl.

How does this work? I thought Sectors weren't loaded while you weren't in them, yourself.
Since a couple of versions, Avorion will keep the last X sectors alive when you leave.
For singleplayer it's 500 or so, for multiplayer the serverowner can set it, default to 5 iirc.
There is only one problem though: you need to be at the Scrapyard to tell your "drones" to stop, as you cannot issue them commands while OoS (even with Fleet Control). I got a lot of angry messages from my most prized ally while I was in a mad dash through gates and hyperdrive warps trying to get there in time, and managed to literally on the last second before they'd destroy aaaalll of my baby ships to buy a new license.
At the moment there's no way to remotely tell them to stop.
I'm working on something like that: https://github.com/ctcDNightmare/avorion-remotecontrol
The proof of concept works so far:
(watch in fullscreen to read the console & chat output from the remote ships)
But it's still far away from getting done / I'm busy with RL or ScrapyardPlus
Man, all these mods are mega-cool. Thanks for all your work, guys and gals!
Thanks :) Glad there's people out there who like my (and others') work.
-
Also, looking at your mods/ folder structure and the mod hooks you're implementing by writing them into the original scripts files is giving me massive inspiration on how to actually handle the ModLoader / ModManager I'm working on in secret for my personal use, but plan to release once functional.
Credit where credit is due: That's totally the idea from DirtyRedz who got me hooked with the whole modding in the first place.
But glad you enjoy my little mod :)
Once I find the time to get the events in there as well I'm sure it'll be another thing you didn't know you wanted :D

Sooo, v1.3.0 is finally out!
We now have working lifetime licenses yay
They are quite hard to get with default settings BUT they work for the whole faction and not just a single scrapyard.
If you are at max reputation (100k) you start earning experience towards the lifetime status when you are salvaging with a valid, regular license until you reach enough to permanently activate your lifetime-status.
Of course the amount, speed, etc can all be adjusted in the modconfig for your personal preference.
To make lifetime licenses worth using, I've also started to work on regenerating wrecks so you don't run out of scrapmetal after a while but this will go into 1.4+.

Well better posted in the wrong spot than not at all :)
Dirty & Me are actually working together back & forth on those two mods, so it was only semi-wrong anyway.
I will take a closer look at my current version to and see if there's any other issues I overlooked when testing.
Want to get more stuff done for lifetime license anyway (+ regenerating scrapyards to support lifetime licenses)

Screenshots
Solo player after getting his first license
Alliance pilot with a normal reputation
Nearly reached lifetime status but lost reputation before finishing it (old version)
Finally reached lifetime status (old version)
Roadmap
Implemented:
- extend your current license instead of overwriting it
- longer maximum duration for your license
- reputation based benefits (max duration and discount)
- flexible duration selection via slider
- add support for mod-configuration
- split the license system into private & alliance so you can buy a personal one even if you are in an alliance
- lifetime license
- regenerating wrecks / events to support lifetime licenses
Planned:
- polishing current implementation with more texts, events, interactions
Notes
As I was not satisfied with the current salvaging-license model, I got to work and learned a bit of lua and modified the original script.
So far you can stack your licenses, so if you buy 5 minutes two times, you get 10 minutes total.
As this is my first mod for Avorion apart from some small private things here and there, don't expect the cleanest code in the world but I did my best to test it on my local machine and my dedicated server and haven't encountered anything game-breaking so far.
It's available at GitHub if someone wants to contribute.
Constructive feedback what I could change/implement/extend upon or fix in case you find a bug is more than welcome!
