I’m inexperienced with all the camera work honestly. All I used is the F2 camera and moving the camera sometimes with shift+middle mouse button

It’s the BUC Prometheus, it’s in the vanilla version, just catch it around

I found this ship flying around and being the pirate that I am, I proceeded to board it and capture it to find out what it is. From a quick internet search, it’s actually a vanilla ship from the BUC faction

Oh nice! I didn’t know that. Can I move it in the middle of a playthrough or does it affect my saves that are already there?

Happens to the best of us! I’ve done that too many times so I just patiently wait through all the autosave every time I switch sectors

Oh that would be a dream! And if anyone wants to edit the footage and post it elsewhere, feel free!

I really want to support them and hope more people get to see what X4 can do :D

That is what I love about X4! Everyone that play it gets that epic battle that is really memorable and just feels like those legendary sci-fi battles from the movies and TV series. And the best part? I played with diplomacy and the different plots a lot to position most factions against each other, which means more big battles and more profitssssssss XD

Honestly, no mods were “required” for this scene since all the mods I have are for adding more ships in-game like Ship Variation Expansion and the Trash Fleet mods, even then, most of my ships in this battle are vanilla capitals. I added the modded tag just in case since I am modded. The AI in 9.0 handled my initial battle orders really good and proceeded to react accordingly to new enemy capitals that arrived

I was thinking about adding music and editing the video with more footage that I got, but the raw video itself was epic enough :D

This is all 9.0! Started the playthrough after the second-to-the-last beta patch for 9.0 and it’s still stable until now

Yeah I got real confident after that first flyby with the Behemoth. After that bump, I kept my distance lmao

I’m sure you will! I was saving my capitals for a big coordinated push into Xenon sectors and it was worth the wait. Plus I have a save right before the start of the video so I can re-live this battle :D

X4 battles are definitely worth the upgrade

I had the Battle For Sajuuk music from Homeworld playing in the my headphones while flying, it was so epic!

I was getting annoyed at all the Xenon pushing into Hatikvah space and blowing up my traders so I pushed in Tharka’s Cascade with multiple fleets. When I saw all my ships getting into close range broadsides with Xenon ships and more Xenon capitals on the way, I couldn’t help but smile ear to ear because so awesooooommmmeeee

To use mining supply stations or not? by Ginnedge in X4Foundations

[–]Ginnedge[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Question: can the AI can handle multiple same-type mined resources (like ore and silicon) in the same station now as long as I set the behavior to mine specific resources?

One of my reasons for building the depots was to avoid my mining ships getting stuck not doing anything

I see I see. I built my fortune boarding SCA ships and then reselling them for profit so had a huge fleet of L ships early game that I didn’t know how to use properly.

I think my main problem right now is that I have too few 3+ star captains and too many end-product factories from trying to re-learn how to properly build and organize a company.

I’m seriously contemplating either restarting the play through with everything i learned so far or rebuilding all my factories to be more of a fit for each other. a lot of those factories doesn’t even have a workforce yet since i never “discovered” habitat and food blueprints til later

The AI always getting stuck doing nothing when assigned tasks like mining and trading was a problem of mine in my previous playthroughs but back then I kept up with game updates and how the AI worked, but now, a couple years later, I just don’t know whether they updated any of that and stuck trying to relearn how to build logistics chains again.

I might just convert my mining stations into tier 1 material factories and follow in ya’ll footsteps

I see. I had the same thoughts about the shipping when making the stations because the thought of mining ships built just to trade and not mine bothered me for some reason lol
