Baely v1.0
==================
You'd think there be more X-Rebirth mods to choose from after 2 years since its release.
Anyways,
Somewhere along midgame, X-Rebirth starts having so many repetitive micromanagement tasks that it becomes difficult to stay interested.
So I made this mod to "SETA" my way forward, if you will, and skip employee hunting and get back to boarding and station building and all that other good stuff sooner.
What is it?
-----------
This mod adds a few sub-menus under Main > Crew (ENTER-7)
2."Call Remotely" - Intercom function identical to the vanilla version that you normally see only while inside a station.
3."Hire crew for me"
->1."Man them capital ships!"- Generates and hires crew for all the player owned capital ships in sector. Each new employee cost 150% to 200% of normal hiring fees.
->2."Claim them ships" - Automatically claims all ownerless ships in zone, hiring fees apply.
4."I need repairs" - Places a friendly engineer on the closest owned capital ship to allow for repairs
5."Hire me a Specialist"
->[List of all specialists] - Choose a specialist, any specialist. Costs 200% to 300% of normal hiring fees. Bypasses incarnation system problem and places it, player-owned, in skunk backroom.
These functions use custom characters/charactergroups to ensure each NPC has vanilla star levels with only primary skills at 5 stars.
While I was at it, I modified the ship trader scripts to hire Baely commander and pilots instead of the bland, mediocre pilots they normally hire.
Feedback is welcomed.
Developed while using X Rebirth v3.60
