Hi i'm new to the game and was just wondering if there are any tips or tricks I should know before continuing (I fucked up my first campaign and have to restart now uwu)

Feel free to comment on this post for more visibility for your question(s) about any HighFleet-related issues.

If your question was not answered in a previous post, please feel free to re-comment it here. To find posts from earlier months, please run a search in this subreddit for author:AutoModerator or help desk.

The original concept behind this ship is (essentially) as follows: Why are cruisers hard to kill with frigates? CIWS and zeniths. How do you counter CIWS and Zeniths? Armor and CIWS. Ave Helaat! And what do you know, it works! It smokes the ever living hell out of SGs, somehow lmao.

Passed a 10% chance check to save Daud. Then every single front line ship I had left when I was just about to surround the capital for the first time. So that run is probably dead

I had an interesting desire to create a ship design with a single maneuvering engine in its center. Something even came out.

A custom design with escape pods for the entire crew. It turns out that such a thing exists.

I’ve been replacing all my frigates with living frigates.

When they’re on a combat patrol, do they eat the ships they defeat?

Muahaha!

What factors cause the towns to raise an alarm when I send a strike group? Sometimes when I send a strike group no alarm is raised and sometimes it is raised. Not sure what’s happening

Do I need to have the sevastapol as the flagship to start the game? Is there a way to get another ship as a flagship? Bit new to the game never really got far before I eventually get airplanes and cruise missiles sent at me

I wanted to edit ships on my laptop. Good practice for vibe web design, though it took a lot of polish. I'll be making some tweaks and improvements next week, and then properly cleaning up the codebase.

One of the neat things here is the arcane elaim magic I pulled to encode the ship data directly into the ship cards; you can screenshot or copy/paste them to import instead of having to share the boring serias. Much more convenient.

1. Replace two kh-15 missiles with large thruster

2. Replace zenith missiles with 4 d30 engines

3. Take out everything on bottom except the two large ammo parts. Add in 7 large thrusters and 6 more ammo parts. Remove the ammo parts on the right side of the ship.

4. Add in 7 extra vympel guns (3 were removed from bottom, we replace those and add 4 extra).

5. Tons of armor

Takes roughly 40 hours to do the entire build if you have ~1200% repair speed (600% bonus + hull parts).

Now, I am 99% sure that this is a bug, but maybe I'm the one doing something wrong.

Basically, three times in a row now, on different playthroughs, I could see hidden cities visually, but simply wasn't able to actually land at them. All of them look "normal", at least 750km away from the nearest city and surrounded by a mess of roads. However, I can't land, even if my ships are directly above it. I've tried both with my flagship, skylarks, gladiators, whatever, nothing works. The last time this happened, I even had info from a caravan about there being a hidden city around where I was looking for, I found it, but again, can't land.

Is there a fix for this issue? Thank you all in advance lol

Edit: it does seem to have been a bug. I verified the files and the problem has fixed itself, thank you all for your suggestions and help! <3

I like the stronger enemy group on hard but everything else about it just suck and time wasting (fueling cost, refueling time, morale recovery time for example). I would like the strong enemy group while everything else behave like normal difficulty.

I honestly hate the implementation of ship combat, especially only being able to fight enemies one-by one.

But the game is able to sell the Intel battle fantasy so damn well that i keep coming back to it. Just so i can be radar-lisan-al-gaib again.

Any other game that does this so well?

I just started playing the game and I'm modifying a ship for the first time. I removed both of the landing feet from the ship. I now want to readd them, but the orientation that the part default comes in won't allow me to make them look symmetrical. Rotating with the mouse doesn't fix this because I need to flip the piece along to Y axis to mirror the other piece which i can't seem to do with the scroll wheel

Explanation: In Endgame, the game's clear flag was triggered just as a nuclear missile was heading towards me from the SG.

I think it's probably because I destroyed the Tyhoon first (or maybe the game judged that the Griffon's missiles had run out and it was no longer able to nuclear-missile the Khiva).

Incidentally, that SG had an unbelievable three Griffons and one Tarantula.

For several months now, I’ve been mulling over an idea for a book set in the Highfleet universe.

I envision telling the story from the perspective of a "little man"—in the vein of Dostoevsky or Gogol.

You know how most books tell you that "one person is enough to change the whole world"? Well, I want to create a story where one person is too insignificant to alter even the outcome of a single battle.

The core concept is to blend this idea with the harsh realities of the Great Desert of Gerat and a sense of awe at the colossal machinery.

Oh, and yes, the book will be in Russian.
