-
Version 6.2.013
- Localisation: Russian translation by epicproff.
- Compatibility: With Mycu's Verbose Transaction Log mod, money transfers from this mod will be labeled: Ransom payment for release from captivity, Transfer to trust upon death, Transfer from station to trust upon death, Transfer from station build storage to trust upon death, Transfer from trust as inheritance, Cloning service, Save scum penalty in the Transaction Log menu.
-
Version 6.2.011
- New feature: Ironman mode: You can only load from one save slot. Autosaves and quicksaves are exempt. This requires my other mod, Grouped save files (https://www.nexusmods.com/x4foundations/mods/1310), for its Game Id Manager.
- Removed feature: Dead is dead has been replaced with Ironman mode.
- Tweak: Optimisation: limited hit detection for DPS calculation to 0.25 per second instead of for every hit.
- Bug-fix: Social Standings and Citizenships ratings were not getting reset after a death alternative process.
-
Version 6.2.001
- Bug-fix: your ship was not getting protectred from destruction and so the countdown destroys the ship before its finished.
-
Version 6.1.004
- Bug-fix: ship was getting destroyed too early preventing your escape.
-
Version 6.1.003
- Chinese localisation: Thank you to "i@kag*.com" on Nexus.
-
Version 6.1.001
- Bug-fix: The rooms for the cloning lab and the trust office were not getting created in Boron stations.
-
Version 6.0.002
- New feature: Save scum penalties: A save scum is detected when a loaded game is an hour or older than the current in-game time. When detected, the player will lose 50% (by default and configurable) of their credits. Or a death alternative can be set to be the penalty instead. More info in the Save Scum Penalties section below.
- Tweak: Dead is dead now works for each separate game. I.e. it now identifies if the loaded file is from the same game. Previously, it applied its penalties across all saved games regardless of whether the loaded file is of the same game.
- Bug-fix: Entering ships that should be invulnerable were getting set to vulnerable when you exit them.
-
Version 6.0.0004
- Bug-fix: The inheritance code was broken. The Trust wasn't taking the players properties for inheritance.
- Note: This version should work with 6.x and 5.x of the base game.
-
Version 5.1.0314
- Bug-fix: Pause countdown to destruction on menus. They were paused when the Transporter Room menu was open, but not when the Map Menu was open - which is what's required when plotting a Teleport destination.
- New feature: Destroying your attacker before the countdown reaches 0 will cancel the destruction.
- Tweak: Because of the new feature above, the destruction becomes unavoidable only when hull points are 0. Previously, destruction was unavaoidable based on the ship's received damage-per-second.
- Note: The countdown will always start at 15 seconds (by the Extension Options default) from when there is only 15 seconds OR less of both shields and hull is left. E.g. if there's only actually 5 seconds left of shields and hull, but damage calculation starts then, the countdown will still start at 15 seconds.
-
Version 5.1.0313
- Bug-fix: The pause at 3 seconds countdown to destruction while a menu is open wasn't working.
-
Version 5.1.0301
- Return feature: Destrcution countdown. Needs 5.1.0301 of UI Extensions which re-enables the custom HUD elements.
- Bug-fix: Some properties were getting skipped during the bribe payment and destruction processes.
-
Version 5.1.00091
- Interim fix for UI Extension not showing custom HUD bug: show the countdown as notifications.
-
Version 5.1.0009
- New feature: New alternative: Warp to nearest friendly station. No penalty. By default, this alternative is disabled. Enable it in the Extension Options.
- New feature: When you plan to uninstall the mod, save the game from the Options menu. Games saved from the Options menu do not have the player ship's invulnerability. It is safe to uninstall the mod at these saves. Otherwise, when the mod is uninstalled, the player's ship will be invulnerable.
-
Version 5.0.0013
- Bug-fix: Damage to hull and shield events to detecting countdown - instead of only on attack events.
- Bug-fix: Don't destroy ship if there more than the set destruction hull points threshold.
-
Version 5.0.0011
- New feature: Pirate DLC game restarts.
-
Version 5.0.001
- New feature: More reactive HUD. High and increasing (or decreasing) damage per second (DPS) will be show on the HUD next to the countdown.
- New feature: Less destructive clones: Clones retain their relationships. In previous versions, new clones reset their relationships. Note that clones also retain Reputations (from my other mod, Reputations and Professions) and Social Standings (from my other mod, Social Standings and Citizenships). You can disable this in the Extensions Options.
- New feature: Clones are 3x more likely to be chosen when death alternative is random and it is available.
- New feature: "Teleported to safety by an employee" is 5x more likely to be chosen when death alternative is random and it is available.
- New feature: Support for Social Standings and Citizenships. When you lose properties, your Immigration Status will be recalculated.
- Bug-fix: Cloning labs are never found at player-owned stations.
-
Version 4.2.0804
- Bug-fix: Respawning as a clone would break the death process if you had no clones left.
- New feature: Separated the ownership options after death. By default: clones and those assimilated retain their properties, descendants lose then can inherit their properties. Check the Extension Options. Previously, the ONE ownership options after death was applied to all three alternatives.
- Bug-fix: Crime has Consequences support: ships with no assigned ai pilot cannot be impounded and are destroyed at the end of the countdown. Previously, the countdown would restart and the ship will never explode until you exit it.
-
Version 4.2.071
- Bug-fix: The mod was creating its rooms and npcs when you arrive at the station instead of when you actually dock or teleport to it.
-
Version 4.2.07
- Bug-fix: Teleporting in and out of stations wasn't detected, so the mod's custom rooms and NPCs were not created when teleporting into a station.
-
Version 4.2.01
- Bug-fix: Standardised the event listeners for: arrive at station, dock, undock, leave station in my mods that need them with these events: attention change, dock, undock, teleport. In previous versions, these events were handled inconsistently that resulted in intermittent bugs like: (in Reputations and Professions) the Guild Network button become disabled after docking even if it was available before docking, (in High-security Rooms Are Locked) the mission NPC not getting moved to an unlocked room, (in several mods) mod NPCs, like the Mod-Parts Trader not getting spawned in their rooms, etc.
-
Version 4.2.0
- Bug-fix: Clean-up mod-specific NPCs at stations after the player teleports. Previously, they were cleaned-up only when the player leaves the station's vicinity.
-
Version 4.1.01
- Bug-fix: NPC pilot disappearing from ship when countdown destruction starts.
-
Version 4.1.0
- Bug-fix: Inheritance text DB in the GERMAN LANGUAGE FILE had incorrect variables breaking the text in-game.
-
Version 2.1.1
- Bug-fix: Successful inheritance message fix.
-
Version 2.1.0
- Reading Dead-is-dead data for that feature to work.
-
Version 2.0.9
- New feature: When you avert destruction, by flying evasively, you get a shield boost to help you escape. This shield boost has a cool-down timer of 10 minutes.
- New feature: Dead is dead. Optional feature. With this feature enabled, after you respawn after death with the death alternative, the game will detect if you load a different game to cheat the death alternative outcome. When this cheat is detected, the new game will load but you will spawn with another death alternative.
- Bug-fix: The ship would be invulnerable after the countdown to destruction - preventing other countdowns and preventing the impound feature of Crime has consequences from working.
- Bug-fix: The base-game's auto-eject feature is disabled with this mod - regardless of whether it is enabled in the game's settings. It disrupts this mod's countdown to destruction feature. For this override to not "stick" to all your games (i.e. in case you uninstall the mod in the future), save the game from the Options Menu. When opening the Options Menu, this override is removed - preventing it from being saved in your game. Auto-save and quick-save unfortunately saves it in your game - locking it in to your game even after this mod is uninstalled.
-
Version 2.0.8
- New feature: Terran re-starts, if available.
- Tweak: Better compatibility with Crime has consequences (CHC). Previously, if you were being attack by a faction who can impound your ship, ATD's countdown to destruction is disabled. In this version, ATD's countdown will show as normal, but destruction will not occur if the ship can be impounded, as usual when both ATD and CHC are installed. Instead, the ship will be impounded, as usual when both ATD and CHC are installed. With this tweak, ATD's countdown and "take evasive manouvers" HUD notification will be active.
- Tweak: If you are assimilated and have no other ships (except the one that was destroyed), you will restart with one of the available restart options. Assimiliation is suppose to not give you any new properties. This tweak activates only if you have no other ship.
- New feature (beta): Dead is dead. Loading another game with this set, after death to cheat the mod, will cause the death alternative to start. Disable this in the Extensions Options.
- Bug-fix: When assimilated, you will restart at a station neutral or friendly to the assimilating faction. Previously, you could restart at a station aggressive against the assimilating faction.
- Bug-fix: The Trust Executor was getting created even if the death alternative chosen randomly doesn't need them.
-
Version 2.0.7
- Compatibility: Station seed property used in creating rooms for 4.1beta1.
-
Version 2.0.6
- New feature: Clone alternative can now de-prioritised, which allows it to be chosen randomly like the other alternatives. Clones are first exhausted before the other alternatives are used unless it is de-prioritised. By default the clone alternative has priority. Change this in the Extensions Options.
- Bug-fix: Licences weren't getting removed/updated after "death".
- Bug-fix: The destruction countdown is now paused at 3 seconds if the Map menu or the Transporter Room menu is open, which allows you to spend as much time choosing your teleport destination. Previously, the countdown wasn't paused - which was the bug. (Note that when my other mod, Teleport from Rransporter Room, is used, you can only teleport by using the Transporter Room panel.)
- Tweak: Damage-per-second (DPS) monitor.
- Tweak: Removed the now unnecessary Khaak and Xenon definitions from factions.xml. They were there to unlock them for the Assimilation feature to work. Unlocking them now work at the code level.
-
Version 2.0.5
- Tweak: Better implementatino of "Extended conversation menu". Some conversation options are based on conditions. In the previous version, all conversations are sent to ECM (if it is installed). The problem is when no conversation options are based on those conditions, which sometimes leaves the conversation empty, requiring the player to Escape out of it.
-
Version 2.0.4
- New feature: Support for iforgotmysocks' "Extended conversation menu" - if installed.
- Bug-fix: Reset completed cues that track boarding operations.
-
Version 2.0.3
- Bug-fix: Unlock faction relationship before assimilation. Some factions are locked from relationship changes - preventing assimilation to those factions from working. Unlocking them first would make this work.
-
Version 2.0.2
- Bug-fix: Split faction name typo.
-
Version 2.0.1
- New feature: Destruction countdown time is now decreased to 15s. The extra time is set to 0 from the previous versions of 15s. Change this extra time back (or any value you wish) in Extensions Options menu of the mod. The long destruction countdown time was to allow players of my other mod, Teleport From Transporter Room, to get to the Transporter Room and select a teleport destination. (With that mod, teleport from the map is disabled.) In this new version, the ship will never be destroyed until after the Transporter Room Panel is closed - allowing the player to teleport away.
- Bug-fix: Descendants restart option was failing to run the full respawn-sequence (new ship, inheritance, etc.) after the player "respawns".
- Bug-fix: Split game respawns had invalid objects.
-
Version 2.0.0
- New feature: updated for v4.0.0 beta 11 of the base game.
- New feature: Split DLC clone restarts. Thanks, General Vash!
- New feature: Strict clone restart option: clones will start with the same equipment and relations as the player, rather than randomised.
- New feature: expanded ownership options after death: Inheritance (default), Confiscated by the sector's ruling faction, Confiscated by your killer's faction, or Destroyed.
- New feature: inheritance notifications sent to the mail system.
- Bug fix: ransom payment option is not enabled when killed by the khaak or the xenon.
- Tweaks: Cleaned-up unnecessary localisation files. Rewrote content.xml manifest file.
-
Version 1.3.0
- New feature: Support for Escape Pod mod (https://www.nexusmods.com/x4foundations/mods/596). Enter the Escape Pod from the Transporter Room panel. Requires Escape Pod version greater than 1.01 - likely unreleased at the moment, but will be released soon.
- New feature: Set these to configure when the countdown starts and the countdown length. "Hull-seconds remaining to start countdown" and "Additional countdown seconds". Their defaults are the same as the previous versions at 15s each. Read the section, "Configure the mod", below if you want to change these values.
- New feature: "Execute evasive maneuvers." HUD notification if the ship's destruction can be averted.
- Tweak: The HUD notification stays yellow if destruction can be averted.
-
Version 1.2.2
- Bug-fix: DPS calculation bug from the update that allows the player to avert destruction (v1.2.0). This is the bug that causes your ship to be invulnerable when it has no health left. Because the ship has no health left, the system doesn't actually register new damage - effectively reducing its received DPS every second. Luckily that, in the base game, even if the damage is not detected while your ship is protected from destruction, hits are. In this version, DPS only decreases while your ship is not getting hit - effectively maintain the previous DPS regardless of new incoming damage.
-
Version 1.2.1
- Bug-fix: "Crime has consequences" mod (https://www.nexusmods.com/x4foundations/mods/566) compatibility: Ship impounds on attack overrides the death sequence, including the countdown.
-
Version 1.2.0
- New feature: "Crime has consequences" mod (https://www.nexusmods.com/x4foundations/mods/566) compatibility: Crimes of ships that are put into trust are inactive until the player retrieves the ships.
- New feature: Boarding operations are forced into a stalement on "death".
- New feature: Ship destruction can be averted by avoiding more damage and decreasing damage-received-per-second (DPS).
- New feature: Ship destruction is certain if the ship only has 15 seconds of hull left AND the hull is less than 25%.
- New feature: Better DPS tracking code.
- Bug-fix: The death sequence wasn't destroying your ship at the end of the countdown somtimes.
- New feature: More efficient dialogue.
- Bug-fix: Clone specialist and the trust executors will never leave their offices.
- Bug-fix: Notifications of relationship changes and lost licenses are suppressed while "respawning".
-
Version 1.1.1
- Bug-fix: Buying a clone doesn't remove monies from the player.
-
Version 1.1.0
- Bug-fix: Prevent the death alternative sequence, that works "behind the scenes", from terminating by making sure that the "watch cutscene" location and the final location for the player are never empty.
- Tweak: Death alternative sequence tweaked: teleport from ship, destroy ship, transfer to trust/pay ransom, teleport to new location, show death notice.
- Bug-fix: Version number correctly appended to the names of clones.
- Bug-fix: The name of the employee in the "Teleport to safety by employee" notice should never be empty/null.
- Bug-fix: Allow the death notice to be closed. Previously, the player needed to click on the button "Mark as read" for the death alternative sequence to continue/complete.
- Bug-fix (maybe): Unlock the relations of Khaak and Xenon so that players can raise their relations to them, so that assimilation to their factions can work. Note that this didn't work in my current game. It MAY work in new games, however.
