This update removes support for Mega Freight Battles. If you have Mega Freight Battles, either do not update, or uninstall the plugin.

Welcome to Main Plot Plus 1.2! This is a major update featuring numerous changes to existing features intended to increase quality of life, along with a few new ones inherited from my now defunct private plugin “Side Plot Plus.”

Changes include:

  • A much more polished fast forward start that allows you to skip most of the beginning
    • This start is now locked so that you can only use it once you have reached the point it skips to at least once in game
  • Easier activation of guided start indicators, as you can now activate them without departing the planet
  • Decreased difficulty in starting neutrality
    • You can no longer decline the first neutrality mission. If you do not want to do neutrality, tell the person a different side.
    • Added numerous other conditions to trigger the first neutrality mission besides having to wait ten years in game, that imply that you have interacted with the game in some way for some time.
  • A subsidurial pet as a reward for completion of the neutrality campaign
  • Compatibility with the Omnis cheat plugin along with the All Content Plugin
  • The ability to resupply ammo from any outfitter
    • This can be fully disabled or restricted to exclude powerful ammo like nukes, finishers, or firelights
    • Some ammunition, most notably the nuclear missile and Ka'het MHD Generator, is excluded due to having other uses besides ammo
  • Further buffs to the augmented nuclear missile
    • This is now known as a “Mark II” nuke which means the name can be fully read in the outfitter
    • The nuclear missile is “safer,” i.e. less likely to blow up when it misses its target
    • I have incorporated Amazinite’s launcher idea but with the buffed nukes as ammo, so that the ammo can be replenished
    • These nukes are constrained mostly by outfit space, with nuclear installation chips to tell the game how much to restock at the outfitter
  • Job board missions to change the swizzle of your ship or display your armament deterrence, cargo attraction, and local reputation
  • An updated prompt system which uses a single mission that can be called at any time and is always called when first loading the plugin
    • This lets you choose whether or not to enable paint jobs, security jobs, auto-restock, and guided start, individually
  • An easier Liberate Delta Sagittarii battle, using balance changes made by Saugia on stream
  • Extra flavor text during one of the Han Sizer Month jobs, which was made by Zitchas in a PR that was rejected by the devs
  • Numerous bug fixes and tweaks, many of which were caught by newly added integration tests

As always, to install on PC, clone normally or download the zip file and extract to your plugins folder:

Windows: %appdata%\endless-sky\plugins
Mac: ~/Library/ApplicationSupport/endless-sky/plugins
Linux: ~/.local/share/endless-sky/plugins
Flatpak: ~/.var/app/io.github.endless_sky.endless_sky/data/endless-sky/plugins

If all else fails, open the plugins folder in game by going to Preferences... -> Plugins -> Open Plugins.

To install on mobile, download the zip file, then, in game, go to Preferences... -> Plugins -> Import and choose the downloaded zip file.
