Broadsiders but it’s just the parts.
Description:
This is not a total conversion mod. I recommand you use this mod if you liked https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3219447857&searchtext=broadsider but went "BUT WHY CANT I USE IT IN MY CAREER GAMES????" like a flub before deciding to completely forget about it (AKA: weirdos like me)
The mod was designed to make PvP matches look and feel more like Holywood style fleet battles, inspired by the likes of Battlestar Galactica, Star Wars and Warhammer 40k, using a vanilla cosmoteer part asthetic. If you want to try it out I strongly recommend going to https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3219447857&searchtext=broadsider because this mod isn’t for you….the other mod isnt fixed? Too bad go bother that guy and their discord. Or fix it yourself idk.
Dependencies
This mod requires ABSOLUTELY NOTHING…..The ORIGINAL mod had required various mods to run correctly because the guys who orginally dev’d this mod are gods. Kinda like Jani except Jani is a goddess of epic factorioism. Also she made drones and FTL weapons so she’s automatically a goddess.
It is also important to note that this very likely won’t be compatible with other mods that edit vanilla weapons and parts…assuming that you installed https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3219447857&searchtext=broadsider and not this mod
Features
This mod adds a variety of parts to the game, keeping with a vanilla+ theme:
– Macrocannons: When a large cannon isn’t large enough. Features three unique ammo types and custom artwork.
– Torpedo Launchers: For those moments when nukes just aren’t big enough.
– Large Culverin: Longer-range cannons, designed thinner to allow more guns on a ship’s broadside.
– Fighter Drones: Designed to shoot down other drones (yes broadsiders has giant drone dogfights).
– Standard Autocannon: A fast firing dual barreled side mounted turret weapon with a toggle that allows it to shoot at the enemy roof layer.
– Scattergun: A fast firing dual barreled shotgun with multiple different ammo types and roof shred capability.
– Particle collider: ….wtf this mod never mentioned this…. It roleplays as a ore maker. With only energy. Very OP. Might have to nerf it somehow.
– No more NIHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA…..unless?

All assets from the Broadsiders mod are free to copy and reuse in any way you desire. If you want to fork this mod you are welcome to do so. If in exchange I can make a request, keep whatever fork you make opensource also. And if you dont, ill flame you on the cosmoteer discord so hard that nobody will like you…well okay maybe not that but i will speak ill of you.
Also this mod is still technically open source so if for whatever reason you want https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3219447857&searchtext=broadsider but at home, you, i THINK, should be able to replace the mod.rules file and it should work by like, 90%. If you want the ORIGINAL broadsiders experience, you’ll have to look in the weapon part rules to remove commented out areas specifically in the turret. I never knew that option was ACTUALLY INGRAINED IN VANILLA (in hindsight the PDs work the same way so, maybe i dumb)… Oh and you’ll have to either fix audio pathways and put in your own or yoink old cosmoteer files for the audio. Dont get me wrong i love the funny new sounds updates but GOD IT BROKE ALOT OF STUFF THAT INHERENTLY RELIED ON THEIR ORIGINAL COUNTERPART’S EXISTANCES.
By the way if you want to join the discord of the actual broadsiders mod maker, it’s uh. here. https://discord.gg/s9qJAbBvJ6
PS: The images up top are my attempt to show an example of a broadsiders game. I kinda just stole random people’s ships and threw an AI into them and took screenshots of the resulting fun. The ships DO exist in the broadsiders discord though.
PPS: Jani’s shipyard no longer conflicts with this mod. Mostly because the drone launchers became EVIIILLLLLL.
