📋 About This Mod
LATEST NEWS - Aug 14, 2014 Hey everyone. It's been a while since I've updated this. Mostly it was because I got bored with Starbound itself and forgot about it, and this mod. I stopped following Starbound development for a few months.
A short time ago, my hard drive suffered a mechanical failure and I lost a lot of data, including the assets I'd been working on for this mod. I was dumb and did not have anything backed up. Fortunately, it's simple enough work and most of what I'd already completed was recoverable from this website anyway! I'm still a little mad at myself for learning that lesson the hard way, but now I've got a brand spankin' new hard drive that I mirror to a backup drive on a daily basis, and as an extra measure I'm also going to use Dropbox.
Having checked up on Starbound again, I'm feeling optimistic about all the progress they're making and I've got the urge to work on the mod again. I may however wait until Chucklefish releases the next stable update, presumably with their progression overhaul, before I put out the next release of this mod. We'll see. In the meantime, I intend to keep cranking out more sprites.
Hang in there!
UPDATE: v0. 1. 3a
Just a quick fix. Updated the Vault Suit properly for Furious Koala, and edited the tesla cannon to fix a conflict with MMN Ammo Overhaul.
DESCRIPTION
A Post Nuclear Starbound is currently a weapon and clothing pack that introduces items from Fallout to the Starbound universe. I plan to expand it into much more, but at this point, here is what is currently included:
- Wattz 1000 laser pistol
- Wattz 1000 magneto-laser, dubbed the "Wattz 1000m"
- PPK12 gauss pistol
- YK32 pulse pistol
- Glock 86 plasma pistol
- . 223 pistol
- AER9 laser rifle
- Winchester P94 plasma rifle (aka the "Plasma Caster")
- Winchester P94 "Turbo" variant
- Tesla cannon
- Alien Blaster
- Vault jumpsuit (shirt and leggings)
The guns are all unlocked at once, but they each require a crafting ingredient from the tier they are intended to be used in. Be warned: as far as I can tell, they're pretty strong for the tier they're scaled to and you may consider them slightly overpowered. The vault jumpsuit is unlocked immediately, but must be crafted at the yarn spinner with fabric. The weapons are not perfectly balanced in every aspect yet, but their damage is close to where I want it. Energy cost and rate of fire are still up in the air.
Also! If the crafting recipes aren't ideal or you just want to get the guns as soon as possible, there's
A compact Fallout-inspired weapon and outfit pack for Starbound, adding themed gear with a post-apocalyptic aesthetic. Work in progress, last updated in 2014, with 407 endorsements and nearly 10k downloads. For players who want a touch of Fallout in their Starbound playthrough.
