Stellar Networks is a QoL oriented Starsector mod. It adds three new intel tabs: Commodity, Market, and Storage. Each tab comes with interactive boards that are used to manage presented intel. Finally, the mod extends Contacts and Exploration tab by adding QoL boards to it.

For more details, see this forums thread.

To translate this mod, edit files in data/l10n directory. You can then create the translation mod with just the following structure:

data/config/LunaSettings.csv  # LunaLib settings: headers and description
data/config/tag_data.json     # tag names in Intel UI
data/l10n/                    # strings used in the mod
mod_info.json                 # the usual content, no need for mod plugin

To be able to change some of the behaviour of markets and commodities see various CSV files in the data/stelnet directory. Those files can be either edited in the Stelnet mod's data directory, or created in another mod's data directory. For example, to exclude all markets of the Hegemony faction in your mod, create a file:
starsector/mods/{your_mod_dir}/data/stelnet/exclude/market_by_faction.csv

id
hegemony

Mods introducing new commodities may hinder finding the basic commodities like supplies or fuel. Commodity Market intel board can be forces to show commodities from a CSV file on the top of the right pane list, followed by the remaining commodities sorted in alphabetical order. Example data/stelnet/sort/priority_commodities.csv:

id
supplies
fuel
crew
marines

• Clone this repository.

• Checkout branch you want to try out.

• Ensure your `JAVA_HOME` environment variable is set to a correct JDK:

  • Linux/Mac:

     JAVA_HOME="/home/$USER/.jdks/azul-17.0.14/"
     # Test with:
     ./gradlew --version

  • Windows:

    Not sure if any equivalent for Windows is needed, or it will "just work"?

• Run the following command:

  • Linux/Mac

     ./gradlew gitPackage

  • Windows:

     # Same as for Linux?

• Now you can use stelnet-{version}.zip archive from the project root directory and unpack it to Starsector's mods/ directory.
  Note that you need to remove all Stelnet copies from the mods/ directory before unpacking!
