| Summary | 0027458: UI Issues - Ship Models | ||||
| Description | The Necromancer Transcendant flagship floats above the plane, and it looks really odd, especially when firing or being fired at. See attached screenshot. Resolved as of Patch 5.543 Dismissed. The Zenith Miner Debris is too large, which causes issues: It actually intersects the planet but is drawn by the game in a visual layer in front of the planet (unlike the miner), which does not stand close inspection at all. The model is not really of a high enough fidelity to look good when blown up to that degree. It interferes with unit selection nearby. EDIT: I was wrong, this isn't the root cause of the issue. The issue is that the *unclaimed* version of the debris uses the wrong model, it's a generic asteroid blown up to be gigantic. The claimed version looks great. I suspect this is because it inherits visuals_if_natural_object="assets/_finalgamemeshes/resources/MetalHarvesterEmpty/MetalHarvesterEmpty.prefab" from the parent entity, a standard metal harvester. Some Venator models are too large for their power level. Some (Woeful, Truant, Foppish ) are the size of Dire guardians while having a third of the power level, even at Mk7. The Ecstatic, Quaint and Sadistic Venators are closer to what feels right, though still a bit on the large side. I cannot speak for Quixotic, Debauched or Demolition, I haven't run across them yet. The worst offender, though, is the Nadir Dire Venator. It is *far* too large. (It is also far too strongly biased towards being a hitpoint mountain with no damage, but that's an issue for a different ticket.) | ||||

Large model does not always mean more powerful ship though? |
|

I agree, it doesn't. The T3 exowars, for example, are all tiny compared to their power. The Venators mostly are just out of scale enough that it really bothers me. And there's also a factor of "If this ship is really advanced, why is it so underpowered for how large it is". Most of them it bothers me, but it's not a full issue on it's own. The one that actually is an issue is the Nadir. It's just stupidly out of scale, and it actually makes it harder to see what's going on and to control your ships. |

I've tweaked the zenith miner debris, and the Woeful, Truant, Foppish and Nadir venator sizes in the next patch 5.546; can you see how they feel now? |

I took a look at these today, they definitely feel a lot better to me now, especially the Nadir, and the debris is working now and it's nice to be able to see that, so as far as I'm concerned this is fixed now. ;) |
