OverviewFTL: Hyperspace is a hard-coded mod (or 'exe mod') which aims to extend the modding capabilities of FTL.
Numpad 8: Power System Slot - mouse over a system on the lower left and press this key to fully power it. Numpad 9: Repair System Slot - mouse over a system on the lower left and press this key to repair it. Numpad +: More System Slots - mouse over a system on the lower left and press this key to add another power slot for it. These days, guests can be seen gambling on video poker machines or slots with movie clips, music and more. Computerized games have made casinos flashier than ever, but they aren't the only technological advancement of note. Things like ticket vouchers save players the hassle (and risk) of carrying large amounts of money on their persons. Today SSDs scale up to 10TB per system slot 19 (PCIe slot) while DRAM scales only to 64GB per slot (DIMM slot). Even though systems have more DIMM slots than PCIe slots, one would require an impractically high (160) number of DIMM slots to match per-slot SSD density. SSDs provide up to a million IOPS at less than 100msec and lack seek latencies.
It provides a backend to more complex mods which were never possible before, adding features such as the ability to add completely new races with their own stats, a ship selector with infinite pages, and combining augments to create completely new ones.Seeded runs are now a feature of Hyperspace, too! You can input a seed before starting a run which will disable unlocks and generate the map based on the seed, allowing you to redo a run or play the same run as someone else (to race them, for example!).
Currently, the biggest mod which utilizes Hyperspace is FTL: Multiverse. Go check them out!
The mod also contains some Quality of Life changes to FTL, such as a numerical hull indicator for the player and enemy.
This mod DOES NOT WORK with the latest version of FTL. You will need to downgrade your FTL to 1.6.9 to be able to use it.
The versions between 1.6.9 and 1.6.14 only add a Japanese translation and Steam achievements, so you won't be losing out on much.
The instructions to downgrade are below.

Installation
Windows
To downgrade your FTL:
Steam (1.6.14 -> 1.6.9)
Extract the files in the 'Extract where FTLGame.exe is' in your FTL directory.
This is usually in C:Program Files (x86)SteamsteamappscommonFTL Faster Than Light.
Run the downgrade.bat included with the Hyperspace download.
Install the 'Hyperspace.ftl' mod with Slipstream Mod Manager, along with any other mods that utilize Hyperspace after that.
Other Versions
For Epic Games, Origin, and Microsoft Store (Xbox Game Pass version), download one of these patchers and once again extract them to your FTL directory, replacing all files. Then, run downgrade.bat and install as normal.
GOG has their own version selector which you can use to get the 1.6.9 version.
Epic Games Downgrader (1.6.12 -> 1.6.9)
Origin Downgrader (1.6.12 -> 1.6.9)
Microsoft Store/Xbox Game Pass Downgrader (1.6.12 -> 1.6.9)
Linux (Installer) (OUTDATED)
For the Linux install, you will need to have WINE installed.
Then, just use this great installer script made by Paradigm.
To execute:
Linux (Manual)
For the Linux install, you will need to have WINE installed.
Download the Windows version of FTL by running your launcher (Steam, Epic, Origin or GOG) through WINE and downloading it through there.
It should tell you where it's downloaded once it's complete.
Install the 'Hyperspace.ftl' mod with Slipstream Mod Manager, along with any other mods that utilize Hyperspace after that one.
Extract the files in the 'Where FTLGame.exe is' into the Windows FTL version directory.
Downgrade the FTL version:
- Make a backup of FTLGame.exe
- Go to the patch folder
- Open flips.exe
- Apply patch
- Select patch.bps
- On the bottom right where it says 'Most Common ROM Files', click that and select All Files
- Select FTLGame.exe
- Select FTLGame.exe again
- replace file
Then, open a terminal emulator and run the command 'winecfg'
Open the 'Libraries' tab, and write 'xinput1_4' in the 'New override for library:' textbox. Click on 'Add' and you should see 'xinput1_4 (native, builtin)' inside 'Existing overrides:'. Select it, click on 'Edit...', select 'Native (Windows)'.
Do the same for the Hyperspace dll.
Now running FTLGame.exe should open Hyperspace.
NOTE: There may be a bug with fullscreen on Linux. To avoid this, play in windowed mode.
Uninstalling
To uninstall, simply delete the 'Hyperspace.dll' file from your FTL directory, where you installed the mod.
To revert back to 1.6.14, in your FTL directory, delete FTLGame.exe and rename FTLGame_orig.exe to FTLGame.exe.
Just removing the mod from Slipstream will NOT remove the entire mod.

Mod Makers
Most of the features that you can use from Hyperspace are documented in data/hyperspace.xml in Hyperspace.ftl.
Use a hyperspace.xml.append and add the xml tags you need for your mod.
Ideally, the user would download Hyperspace as well as your mod, and install Hyperspace.ftl first then your mod.
For maximum compatibility with other mods, don't redistribute the Hyperspace resource files and instead just direct the user to download Hyperspace in your forum post.
A Lua API was planned for this release, but unfortunately, due to lack of free time, that wasn't possible.
Ftl System Slots App
This may be added to the mod in the future, but don't expect it too soon.
If anyone wants to create some more detailed documentation for the mod's features, please feel free to do so.
