This plugin introduces a branching civil war event to the Bunrodea faction, where players must choose between supporting the rebel Megasa or the ruling Queen's forces.

Rebel fleets spawn across 12 systems

Two possible outcomes: Rebel victory, partial Royalist suppression

Dominate planets to unlock their outfitters and shipyards

In gamerules.txt the following settings are set:

"system departure min" 4000.

The minimum departure distance for all systems. A ship can only jump out of a system if it is further from the system center than the departure distance. If a system has a defined departure distance greater than this value, that value will be used instead.

"system arrival min" 4500.

The minimum arrival distance for all systems. Ships entering a system will exit hyperspace this distance away from their landing target, or the system center if no landing target is selected. If a system has a defined arrival distance greater than this value, that value will be used instead.

"fleet multiplier" 0.75

The global fleet spawn rate multiplier. A value of 2.0 means twice as many random fleets spawn in all systems, while a value of 0.5 means half as many fleets spawn.

This Plugin reenables Hai Reveal!

Additionally the unfettered hai start using their vanilla prototype weapons Ionic Blaster, Ionic Turret and Ionic Shredder during the wanderer invasion. Unfettered start using the modified Ladybug during Hai Reveal.

You can steal a Unfettered military ID by boarding unfettered hai ships in wanderer space or continue to trade jump drives to the Unfettered even after you have helped the Wanderers.

Added unused vanilla ships to the game:

Nighthawk, Waverider, Valkyrie, Modified Osprey, Modified Vanguard

You will see more pirate fleet variants.

Adds minables to Eneva Katta and Genta Bo.

Thshybo Le, Shini Bori, Genta Bo, and Eneva Katta are now frequented by the Korath.

The more northern Bunrodea systems towards the core are not getting raided, due to the Archons blocking the way.

Adds a portal between the completed Quarg Ringworlds Hevru Hai and Giaru Gegno.

The new Quarg Gatesyncher outfit is required to use this portal.

You can buy the Gatesyncher for 90 million credits from completed Quarg Ringworlds.

All vanilla Quarg ships come with a built-in Gatesyncher integrated into their hulls.

Vanilla One-Time-Use Nuke:

Unchanged, functions identically to the original game.

Reloadable Nuke Launcher:

Identical stats to the vanilla nuke but can be reloaded.

Unlocks during the Crossroads branch of the Free Worlds storyline (same trigger as the vanilla nuke).

Nuclear Missile Container enables multi-salvo launches when paired with the reloadable launcher.

Stats original by Zitchas, nerfed by me.

Also included the Inhibitor Turret (vanilla outfit on the Heron but otherwise unavailable, slightly rebalanced by me)

The Swan and Inhibitor Turret become available after the tubfalet appearance.
