Should've called the mod Ship Dehancements!

Sometimes it takes dehancing the ship to enhance the experience XD

Incredible mod with neat, funny and great additions, all while keeping the game aesthetics.

In my test, custom lights color of the "thematic kind" like Heartian Orange or Nomanian-Blue were plain white, but others colors worked well. I dont know if this is a bug from others mods or not.

"Manual Scout Recall" could use some clarifications, the scout can only be first launched from the ship, despite the model on the player hand still showing the scout. A simple text saying to the player that the scout is currently not in his possession and he must retrive it by launching it from the ship could help.

Also if you were to expand the mod, it could be cool to be have a weight system option, were the more you remove gadgets/tools/fuel/oxygen to your ship (like many of the options you currently got), the lighter the ship get, resulting in an increase of the ship speed. You could incite players to either make their ships worse to get better acceleartion, or overly equipped and ultra resistant but barely able to takeoff.

Such system could also beneficiate from a workshop, a place on or near the launchpad were you are able to add and remove the ship functions while in game (as opposed of while on a menu and with a loop restart)

Anyway keep the good work

Thank you for the review!

I'm not sure what's going on with the Manual Scout Recall. If the scout model is in your launcher you should be able to launch it, it's only supposed to stop you from recalling the scout so that you need to go over and pick it up. Maybe another mod is messing it up?
If you recall the scout with the ship you need to manually grab it from on top of the ship where its scout launcher is attached because your handheld one can't recall it from the ship (I'm not sure if this should be included to maintain consistency, it makes it more complicated and it's a little annoying).

I just tested those two lighting colors and they are in fact both plain white, mainly due to the fact that the colors in code were written without a dash ("Hearthian Orange") and the colors in the settings were written with one ("Hearthian-Orange"). Should be fixed in the next update, thanks for pointing that out!

The weight mechanic is really cool, I never considered doing that. In the mod's current state I don't know how well I could implement it since a lot of the options don't actually "remove" things (they just disable them), but I'll keep it in mind.

A workshop on the landing pad would also be super cool, but that would probably require a custom menu which I don't really know how to implement. Maybe in the future I'll try adding it or I'll find some workaround for it.

Thanks again for the feedback!

"Disable Lock-On". I don't see a difference... ;)

[Etherpod]

It should make it so that you can’t lock onto other planets/objects (the thing you do to use autopilot). Is it not working?
