Stinger Shipyards

Stinger Shipyards adds many things to Starsector with the aim of expanding the game's scope beyond the developers' vision. It adds a new faction, campaign-layer mechanics, many new ships, and much more!

Currently, the mod adds...

60+ new ships!

All with unique mechanics, of course! The mod tries to avoid 'bloat' as much as possible, every ship fills a unique role.

Familiar faces, with a new coat of paint!

The mod removes most standard ships from Luddic Path fleets, replacing them with 9 new hulls added by the mod. Hammerhead with Orion Drive on right click, Eradicator with AAF and 6 medium mounts, these are radical reworks of the original hulls. As with all LP ships however, these ships come with Ill-Advised modifications.

The Tri-Tachyon corporation receives a similar treatment, replacing many midline designs with various new high tech ships.

A new faction enters the ring, The Stinger Explosives Corporation!

The Stinger Explosives Corporation is a loose-knit and often violent organization of miners, salvage specialists and ex-mercenary gunsels. The corporation holds the 'bulwark doctrine' of ship design close to their heart and equip their ships with ancient ablative armor. The faction comes with custom campaign-layer features, custom NPCs with dialogue, new industries and more!

More worldbuildings for the sector!

Stock hulls designated with (S) are now worth quite a fortune, utilizing the vanilla Kite (S) as well as adding two new stock hulls. These trophy ships can be found as wrecks in systems and, unlike most other ships, it's worth it to drag them back to the core worlds as they sell for quite a fortune. The pre-Collapse technology within the ships, even if mostly mundane, is highly sought after and merchants are guaranteed to pay a good price to get their hands on one!

And more!

There are many small features not mentioned here. From branch offices to hidden encounters, Stinger Shipyards adds plenty of content for you to explore!
