fix ASB to use with Compact Armadas

This mod makesAmazing Space Battles fully compatible with Compact Armadas. Atlast i hope so as i didnt have time to test yet hehe..

It automatically includes the “shorter battles” adjustments from ASB – and more. Even with the official shorter battles add-on, ASB still alters some gameplay balance (e.g. shield regeneration).
I’ve reverted those changes to keep Compact Armadas as close to vanilla balance as possible.

This mod

Compact Armadas

Amazing Space Battles

Optional (all compatible):

Shorter trails

One of the “more particles” versions

⚠️ Do not use shorter battles or ironman with this patch.
(Compact Armadas doesn’t support ironman anyway, though you can edit a savefile to enable it – guides are available.)

Amazing Space Battles

Compact Armadas (better performance!)

This mod

Your shorter trails / particle add-ons

👉 If you really want longer battles, load Compact Armadas before Amazing Space Battles.
This undoes some of my balance changes, but expect things to be less balanced overall. But only swap those 2! Fix always have to come after amazing space battles, same for their addons.

While working on compatibility, I also addressed some issues:

Autocannons had a missing texture = entry. Fixed – they should now display and work correctly.

Bio-ships: some components were missing the Biogenesis patch code. I’ve added it, which may fix movement or behavior issues players reported.

If you encounter bugs or odd behavior, please leave a comment under Compact Armadas (my main mod) – I check there more often.
