No death run

Description

- Tracks your currently controlled ship, including after command transfers.

- Autopilot does not disable the rule.

- Losing other ships does not end the run.

- Retreating, simulator battles and standalone missions do not end the run.

- Works when loading an existing campaign or starting a new one.

- Existing save files are never deleted. Earlier saves can still be loaded.

Main features

23 automated checks passed against the local Starsector 0. 97a-RC11 libraries. An end-to-end in-game playtest has not been confirmed for this release. Please test on a disposable campaign first.

Automatic battle exit and opening character creation use internal methods specific to 0. 97a-RC11. If automatic exit fails, use the combat exit button. If character creation does not open automatically, select New Game in the main menu.

This is a run-until-death challenge, not save deletion or protection against reloading. Compatibility with other mods has not been comprehensively tested.

Requirements

Starsector 0. 97a-RC11. No additional mods required. Compatibility with other game versions is not established.

Your run ends when the ship you are currently controlling is destroyed in campaign combat. Combat ends in defeat and you can create a new character or return to the main menu without saving.
