Description:

HWRM 2.0 Iinformation!: This mod has now been HWRM2.0 patched and
now playable. This meant however that due to the whole system being
patched, the old version became 100% unplayable, thus had to go back
to square 1

But that also means an oppertunity to make something new.
The patch notes can be found below.

Its going to take time for me to make my other mods compadible
with this new version, plus also making them return to their
former glory.

I am forever thankful for your endless support since launch and
i will continiously work hard to make sure that these mods will
work as long as i can.

If you see this message, it means that it is now playable.


This mod allows you to play as a race of Derelicted ships from Karos graveyard.
Unlike most race mods however, strategy and tactics was more focused here.

The selection of ships you have are limited,
and expensive but each ship can be used in different ways to defend yourself.
Selecting and building the right ship for the right task, is important.

The race comes with Auto Guns wich can be placed on important areas.
Junkyard Dog for picking larger targets to distrupt enemy capital ships (currently extremely unbalanced).

The voice you hear from Tower of Yggrasil is meant to sound scrambled, so dont yell at your Vintage Intercom.
This was made to make it sound like corrupted Ai constructs from a forgotten time.
—–Tips—–

The Auto Guns are extremely important for survival, since Tower of Yggrasil lacks both movements, hyperspace abilities, and
guns. While you start with the JunkYard Dog, it is important to keep it safe and use it when it is really needed.
With the use of the Junkyard dog and the auto guns, you can select a capital ship and bring it to the guns for them to tear apart.

While the Freyja Fighters dont have much firepower, its speed is unmatched by any probe ship, and is capable of distraction. They are also capable of harvesting resoruces (will balance it on later patches)

The Hyperspace Gates that you can build are useful for transporting ships that lack hyperspace abilities for more
tactical moves.

—-Known Bugs—-
The Hyperspace gates that you can build are spawned inside Tower of Yggrasil and not via hyperspacing, so you need to bring them out.

The Junkyard Dog’s mouth will still be open even when the targeted ship was destroyed
Also, as of now, any ship that the Junkyard Dog has in its claws, cannot be targeted. I dont know waht causes this
but i dont know if its fixable or not, but we will see.
