Lotus Mod – Advanced Ship Sections Mod
I made this mod because I was disappointed with the vanilla ship templates. Many of the vanilla templates made it difficult to make specialized ship designs by mixing hangers and torpedoes with traditional weapons that don’t penetrate shields and armor, or large weapon slots with small weapon slots that will never be in range. This causes ‘wasted’ weapon slots, and limited viable designs.
Most ship sections are around the same power level as vanilla classes. However, I a slight buff to my destroyer sections, mostly in the form of utility slots, because this ship class has always felt underwhelming.
Sections are unlocked by researching the Improved and Advanced Hull Technology for each ship class. Below is a list of each of the new sections.
—–Compatibility—–
No vanilla files were overwritten for this mod, so this mod should work fine with most other mods.
This mod is compatible with New Ship Classes 2 (NSC2). However, it only adds sections to the vanilla ships.
—–To Do List—–

-Add Sections for Living Ships mod
