How to change the model size? I think this model is too big. Can you create a version the size of a Titan or warship model? Thank you.

I did not make any of the models included here. I got them from elsewhere with permission to use them.

@james could you possibly design the imperator somnium from warhammer 40,000 or the bucephalus?

I have removed those required components from the ship sizes. Should fix that

well Ive researched all Dreadnought Tech but still it appears 3 spaces at the end will not fill nor any select able items are shown for those slots

Last I knew, NSC added some required components, which I included in this. If that is still the case, filling them should work. Unless NSC doesn't actually provide components for those slots, which would be strange.

Ive got the same problem as Zebase where in three empty slots which results in the SHIPDESIGNER_SAVEFAIL_WRONG_REQUIRED_COMPONENTS error, any advice on how to fix that< I am using NSC 3

There is a Vanilla Only version

Update: Tested and confirmed mod will (mostly) work if installed late. This line:

"Currently, you get the tech to be able to build it by destroying the Dreadnought, and scrapping it. (You study the remains as you destroy them)"

...does not happen, but the tech did randomly appear as an option, I was able to research it and unlock all the functions of the mod. That said, this mod is trying to do WAY more than just make a buildable vanilla Dreadnought...and while that's interesting I'd love there to just be a "lite" version of the mod that ONLY does that, a vanilla Dreadnought. Something to consider maybe @James Fire. Thank you for your contribution to the modding community though!

I'd started a game, played it for awhile and found the dreadnought. If I load this mod in now, before I've killed the Dreadnought, will it still work?

Doesn't matter

where should this mod be placed in the mod loader

They can research it. I can't comment beyond that.

out of couriousity:

how likely is it for the AI to get the tech?

Hurm..
Let's try this:

the preview zooms in a bunch, but clicking the image itself will show the proper size.

Your link was removed

Many updates ago I made my own mod for the dreadnaught (and other event ships), but I never finished it. I did make an icon for its tech if you're interested in using it.

It needs to be converted to a DDS file. PaintDotNet can do it.

Any one know of any mods that break this mod so dreadnought cores not working on the base automated dreadnought? None of the other mods I use touch the automated dreadnought so not idea what could be conflicting.

Work okay on it's own expect the auras slot doesn't show, just a empty slot where nothing goes but think that a issues with the mod code itself since there are 3 special slots in the file ahead of the aura slot so doesn't allow it to show in the ship designer menu.

No, and I can't make a setting for that.

Is there a setting where it counts as Titans for fleet and naval capacity reasons? I'd like it to replace Titans in my fleets entirely.

@Zabese that might help

@Springtrap204 It can be added mid-game.

hi, can this mod be added mid game or does it require a new save?

No I do not, I can shoot you my modlist if need be so you can see something I don't that could be causing this.

Do you use NSC?

Nope it literally states SHIPDESIGNER_SAVEFAIL_WRONG_REQUIRED_COMPONENTS with three empty component slots above the aura slot.

Empty component slots don't cause that. Do you perhaps mean sections?

Correction on that statement isn't every dreadnought variant that does this as well and I literally have no idea why

I have a weird bug with this mod where I can not build the dreadnaught due to their being 3 empty component slots between the core and presence modules. I am not sure on what is causing that and figured I could come here and ask if this is a known issue or something going on in my end.

Because it requires the Dreadnought Shipyards, not the Colossus Shipyard.

I have fixed the tooltip

not*

so i can build the colossus but no the auto dread

i try to build the automated dreadnought, but it keeps saying (colossus shipyard is required). i already have the colossus yard built on the star base!

Okay, dreadnought even should be fixed.

It should be giving the techs properly now.

I'm having the same issue as some others with the dreadnought not being in the fleet designer. Is there a fix for this or a command to get around it? I've already researched the technology but it just isn't in the designer

I've looked before and don't see why it's not working.

I can check again, of course...

So Ive got the same issue other people have faced. I cant get the dreadnought to show up in my fleet designer. It's just not on the list. Yamato, Battlecruiser and Executor are there but Dreadnought is missing.

I've also tried all console commands I can think of.
research_technology tech_buildable_dreadnought
research_technology tech_artillery_dreadnought
research_all_technology

None of it works. I get the 2 message prompts asking me to pick between the 4 ship designs and then pick Dreadnought Hull but then nothing afterwards.

@James Fire "Missile Dreadnought. It might not be optimal, but I want my swarm dammit!"
I approve of this. Because nothing is better than a cloud of angry missiles.

It is a new ship size. They are not, and have never been, under the Titan.

I have no idea what mod you're using that does that, but it isn't this one.

nope lol. X)

okay so if mod is working right and I execute that command correctly the tech should show up as researched aye?

Also not AFAIK

well shitebisckets. =\ any particular load order thats needed

There's no problems on my end, AFAIK

asking cause giving it a whirl and using nsc

is the mod NSC compat?

I solved it by not only console commanding research_technology tech_buildable_dreadnought but also research_technology tech_artillery_dreadnought. The latter tech (and presumably, its carrier counterpart) apparently grants you access to the other two sections of the dreadnought.

Do you mind saying how you got it to work? I have the same problem. At first, it wasn't showing up at all in ship editor despite me researching the tech. Then I tried : research_technology tech_buildable_dreadnought in console, and I got the dreadnought, but the first section is empty.

I eventually got it to work. Sorry for bugging ya! ^_^

What loadout did you try to pick?

So, I ran into a bit of an issue. I finally got the automated dreadnought ship option to appear in my ship designer, but I only have the option to select the Dreadnought Mid-section. I can't select any of the other sections for ship. Help me please! :(
