Raises battle size and fleet ship caps via data-only settings. Integrated with LunaLib for information purposes only.
- Copy this folder to
Starsector/mods/Command-Saturation-Protocol. - Ensure
mod_info.jsonanddata/config/settings.jsonare present. - Enable the mod in the launcher.
- We are using the following values:
maxBattleSize:800#default 400minFractionOfBattleSizeForSmallerSide:0.4#default 0.4maxShipsInFleet:50#default 30- Raise these to increase caps; performance depends on hardware.
Notes:
- Higher values impact performance; scale to your hardware.
- After changing values, you must restart the game.
- Tooltips are not changed to reflect your settings
- If LunaLib is enabled, a read-only panel shows guidance and the current defaults.
- To change values, edit
data/config/settings.jsonand restart the game.
- Battle size:
- 400 DP: Baseline; balanced AI and map space.
- 500–600 DP: Larger lines; good cinematic sweet spot on midrange rigs.
- 700–800 DP: Big fleet actions; heavier CPU load and pathfinding stress.
- 900–1000 DP: Showcase scale; expect FPS dips and AI oddities on stock maps.
- Fleet size:
- 30 ships: Baseline, tuned officer/DP rules.
- 40–50 ships: More niche hulls without heavy juggling.
- 60–80 ships: For collectors/kitbashers; consider raising battle size too.
- 100+ ships: Sandbox spectacle; expect more overhead and post-battle time.
- Tips: Raise battle size and ship cap together; watch the smaller-side DP floor; carriers and officer counts can amplify CPU load.
See version.json for mod and game version targets.
- See
CHANGELOG.md(human-readable) andchangelog.txt(release artifact).
- On application load the mod logs a snapshot of the loaded values, e.g.:
[CSP] Loaded settings -> maxBattleSize=800, minFractionOfBattleSizeForSmallerSide=0.400, maxShipsInFleet=50
- This does not change gameplay; it helps verify your
settings.jsonedits.
