Description

This is derived from niksacokica's Preybird addon: https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2278529622

Using Nick's ship as a base, this addon adds a few more skins to the original ship as well as a whole new variant with features designed to help perform more precise operations tailored to maintaining stealth and air/space superiority.

The LVS version of this addon can be found here.

Features:

Normal Preybird

Colored decals, shields, and engines now glow in the dark.
Added a few texture changes to match the Sketchfab model made by resurrected.
Added flyby sounds.
New skin options:
1. Raptor (lore-accurate red)
2. Skyclaw (lore-accurate blue)
3. Falcon (yellow decal)
4. Unmarked (for clandestine missions)
Normal Preybirds can now use the main laser cannons if the engine is disengaged. This is to allow more opportunities for engagements given the aggressive advantages the standard variants possess, especially with post-stall maneuvers.

Stealth Preybird

Colored decals, shields, and engines now glow in the dark.
Added a few texture changes to match the Sketchfab model made by resurrected.
Added flyby sounds.
New skin options:
1. Freebird (green stealth coating)
2. Harrier (grey stealth coating)
3. Osprey (white stealth coating)
4. Phoenix (orange stealth coating)
5. Unmarked (for high priority stealth missions)
New "stealth engines" and various stat modifications allow for:
- [+]Significant increase to maximum cruising speed (191km/h --> 201km/h).
- [+]Exceptional increase to afterburner speed (230km/h --> 250km/h).
- [+]Reduced noise output on all ship functions (around -15 dB).
- [+]Better shields (333 --> 1000).
- [-]Slight decrease of laser cannon damage due to noise suppression (200 --> 100).
- [-]Significant reduction of maximum laser cannon capacity (1000 --> 500).
- [-]Significant reduction of maximum concussion missile capacity (30 --> 15).
- [-]Slightly lower base hull strength (1500 --> 1000).

Added brand new "jamming/cloaking" feature (Press SPACE to toggle):
- [+]Masks signature from enemy IFF targeting systems of AI ships and interferes with most enemy player/pilot sensors (makes you appear as friendly to all LFS vehicles).
- [+]Prevents ground NPCs from targetting you when enabled. Disabled upon exiting the ship at any time or toggling off the jammer/cloak.
- [+]Turns off all glowing lights/textures and the engine exhaust effects when enabled to minimize visual signature.
- [-]However, the aircraft cannot use weapons systems while cloaked.
- [-]There is a 10-second cool-down between mode toggles so use this feature wisely.

- More skins on both ship variants (open to suggestions).
- General texture and code improvements.
- [MAYBE] Clone Wars ship variant.
- [MAYBE] Cluster bomb variant.
- [MAYBE] 2-seater variant.
- [MAYBE] Reconnaissance variant.
