Modding Discussion Avali 1.0 Reboot Discussion

Oh god, sooo many missed opportunities from not using these.

 

Green smiley is being hugged by ALL the fluff.

 

Did y'all not know about the emojis? Well glad I could be of assistance!

 

So, Ryuu last online June 5th. Am I just getting my hopes up, or could this be something?

 

Assuming he didn't only stick his head in long enough to see something he didn't approve of, before nope-ing his way out.

 

If it IS something, you're just getting your hopes up. You do realise that, right?
Well, the guy above me beat me to it by an hour and said it better, but

 

i do hope he gives us either an update or a message to at least inform us to know hes still working on the mod or is getting back into working onto the mod, given the game now has the mechs, ryujinn might need to add avali grade mech parts.

 

Considering the avali are meant to use mechs, I do hope we get a special set of avali mech parts that aren't just re-skins but actually builds an avali mech with proper proportions and sprints unlike those vanilla slow moving pieces of garbage. Exactly why do we have slow and stubby legs on these mechs if it would just be more efficient and cooler looking to use tank tracks?

 

maybe the avali ship gets its own mechbay at a certain upgrade level?

 

Although it may be a bit too much to hope for I wish that in the next update there will be some Avali space stations. It might be a bad idea, but I am totally gonna name my station "Sevastopol Station".

 

Avali stations would be nice, would make creating a space colony less of a chore, though i dont see it as a necesity, i just would love to see Ryujiins mod be remade how he wants it to be.

 

so I've been thinking, mostly since ryujinn isn't planning to add avali variants of vanilla crafting stations, maybe someone could help me make a separate mod for it, each station has the tiers and all that.

 

Oh man, Avali space stations would be awesome to see. The thought hadn't even come to mind until now.

So would Avali mechs.

Of course they'd need to look more like these so that they wouldn't be as much of an eyesore
Chucklefish: "Let's have the player drive around a giant robotic death machine, but have it slide along the ground and make it look extremely silly looking. Great idea, right? "

 

Ryuujin came back online yesterday, i'm hoping he has returned to working on the mod. its exciting to say the least.
given we will be getting

• a new ship
  
• new tent mechanics
  
• a pet
• actual armor instead of inserts
• new items in general
• and maybe mechs?

 

*falls into thread*

Hi guys.

Avali Objects+ is damn near finished.

I have like, 3 folders worth of objects to go through (from like 42 or something), if that. If you've been keeping up on Steam, I got a lil' helper to write up some things for me. Mod will be done within the month at worst and before the weekend at best.

So be on the lookout for a forum release.

 

Uber late to the conversation. I can 110% agree that following canon completely would kill any creative freedoms that RPers even writers (like myself) would with the race. I love the race, but if I had to follow canon in my story, my protagonist probably would have been dead minutes into the story.

You could counter argue that being more narrowly focused could help cement a more tightly knit story; if you're focusing solely on just Avali, but I'm sure most Avali RPers, and writers will want to include other Starbound settings; other game settings, or even real-life settings.

Most fans you find will, in fact, bend the canon to rather large degrees. Not in sheer ignorance, but for the freedom not following the canon the the 'T'.

 

Quote from TheOnlyRen's post:
"So be on the lookout for a forum release."

It's probably going to show up here, when it's done.

 

Can I just remind everyone that your avali OC doesn't absolutely have to be part of the Illuminate and that they have augments to survive other environments?

 

Not sure why that's targeting me if it's meant for everyone. But, cheers all the same.
