Honestly, I got Really lucky stumbling onto that. Figured it was 'close enough', and it was a solid piece of art.

Also considering the Drakkar is The end game craft for us, It deserved a nice depiction. Its as much a character now as is our crew. Arguably far more disciplined too. 

Also, suuuuup Scorch. o/

It's not exactly fair to compare the discipline of cats and a literal machine

So in the version we are doing this run on (N7.0.4) the singing spear does charm damage and gives Femme Fatale Commendations, but when we check the Xpedia (which is admittedly for version N8), it says it should do warp damage with a resist type of charm, and should give unmaker commendations (since its doing warp damage), is it supposed to do Charm damage in Version N7.0.4?

Kaminyan's Log
I finally get out the medbay after a month in following some nasty shocks from one of them fish people things...only to get sent back in...for another 18 days. At least it's just 18 days. I hope every time I get out the medbay I can spend at least one month out of it...I don't know how many times that has happened recently...that fish siege was fun...until I decided to shoot the enemy instead of the tried and true bonking. Not only do the lasers fail to down the target...THEY ALERT IT TO ME and it just zaps me into a month long stay. Every time I'm left in the medbay or at base, the voices come back...begging, pleading and sometimes DEMANDING for me to "make us whole" and then telling me to "collect the legs and heart" and every single time I've told them that we aren't getting missions where we get arcane boxes or that our undersea missions haven't had the fortune of finding those parts...or anymore parts for that matter. The stays in the medbay might be healing my body...but my mind only fractures further outside of missions. This stay can't end soon enough.

For those who might be wondering why the Captain's Log for last stream was edited, it's because Kaminyan didn't go to the realm of fear the singular time we have gone there so far. If my memory of that stream is correct, she was still nursing wounds from a previous mission and couldn't go.

I normally wouldn't make a log, however certain...events and acquisitions have made me feel like writing one is necessary. Those...things we found at the bottom of the sea and in those magic boxes...I think the brainers and the Capnyan called them "arcane strongboxes", I don't understand why they use such fancy language. Those things have...voices...I can't think of any other way to describe the feeling. I asked Capnyan and anyone with Voodoo aptitude...even Squirrelwizard if they could feel it, they just looked at me like I was mad. Maybe this is less of a log and more just me writing my ramblings down, but I'm certain there's POWER in those things, those 'simulacrum parts'...great power. Power we could use to protect the newer members, power to finally make the Star Gods pause before striking us... at first we just found a torso with a head attached, but no limbs and cavities where a heart and brain would sit....then when opening the boxes we found arms and an strange thing that, if my memory of how the torso looked...would fit in the head cavity so I assume it's the brain. Each piece brings new sensations when I get close to them: the torso brings feelings of a hide of great toughness, the arms bring forth strength unimaginable to us Nekos and the brain brings forth thoughts alien to me, full of Voodoo might. It scares me, but at the same time I feel like they're calling to me, asking me to make the being whole. I'll try asking the others if we could search for the rest of the parts, the legs and the heart, as a side project. Hopefully this will prove to be a great asset to us in the coming future... for some reason I feel like I have heard those voices before, when I had my revelation about the Sivalinga stones, as if the will of Terra herself wants us to bring this being to fruition to break those that have claimed her by force...the vile Star Gods.

The game supports mouse wheel. Among other things, you can use it to quickly move workers and researchers around. Just hover the cursor over the number of assigned personnel next to a project and spin it. Can also hold Ctrl to make it faster.

There's plenty of light and strong weapons to choose from. Alternatively, produce some Levitators.

I think I already told Yugian about mouse wheel, he just never uses it. What are Levitators? I am not very knowledgeable in Piratez.

Hello! It's me, Kamivax. I also go by Kaminyan The Blender Cat in the Caturday run. I am here to share some insight on Kaminyan: as you might have noticed while reading the Captain's Logs, Kaminyan is not like most of the Starlight's crew, both original and added, as she is described as practically earthborn by the Captain.

 This is because she has spent quite a long time (I haven't fully figured out HOW long though) in Earth's jungles, so she is (at the start of the run at least) feral, primal and closer to the cat girl equivalent of a canny gal than your average cat girl, outlaw or tourist. This has left her predisposed to melee weapons, though she still knows her way with a gun.

She follows the Way of Death, one of the Seven Ways of Trounce (which i find best described as battle philosophies or strategies...you could even think of them as fighting styles if that clicks for you). The Way of Death is the idea of "hit them fast, hit them hard" or "the enemy cannot kill you if they are dead", it is to end the fight after it began, with the first attack.

 Obviously that doesn't always work when everyone else has armor, but that won't really stop Kaminyan from either hacking her prey to pieces with an axe or just pummel the life out of them with her holy club, or as she prefers to call it, a "macuahuitl" which is presumably complete gibberish to the rest of the crew.

Being the most primal and most tuned with her wild side might cause some possible issues with the Red Codex, effectively turning her into a furry berserker that would make Khorne quite proud, if he can feel pride. She tends to get into arguments with Squirrelwizard, one of the more voodoo or magically inclined crew members (if not THE most), for...reasons that feel pretty obvious since you basically have a khorne berserker and a tzeentch sorcerer in the same room.

Kaminyan makes for a fairly reliable ally on the field, typically closing in and dealing with potentially troublesome enemies and generally being a bit of a bullet sponge (seriously, she has tanked light cannon rounds and a point blank grenade) for the rest of the Starlight's crew, though that leads to her getting sent to the medbay semi-regularly. Alright, I think that's enough lore dumping for me, if people have questions pertaining to Kaminyan,  I will answer to the best of my ability.

Another funny is finding out one of the cats most dedicated to melee is also one of if not THE most accurate shooter in the crew. How the hell does that happen?

Sent a Dragon to your space freighter site, it launched without issues.
I don't know how these extra mods work, so I can't say if they may be responsible. But it's either them or your installation is borked.

i tried with a new install and the mods disabled (after making sure things won't break) and it works now. it might have been the mods, but they've done their jobs so i can keep them disabled

the Space Freighter missions seem to consistently crash for me, so i'd taken to just ignoring them and making up for the penalty, but i would like to actually get to do them. It doesn't crash part way through the mission, it just crashes when i start the mission, which is really upsetting. i know i run mods not everyone might run, but they only seem to affect the start of the campaign and the piranha (so it's less terrible) so i doubt those mods cause the crashes
