Thanks for letting me know, and yes, the change to xmlGetAttrib is the issue.

Edit: I updated the mod so it works correctly again, using a custom function to parse the XML as a string and get around the bug with xmlGetAttrib.

Glad you're enjoying it. Do you think the game is more fun this way?

In my opinion, the issue isn't the color palette but rather that screenshots need to be both distinctive and enticing. I think we do need to improve this. I've got a few rough ideas about how to do this: 1. More contrast: I personally like the muted colors of the game. It's a grittier and more real...

... casualizes the game even further ... hardcore playerbase. Good examples are Dwarf Fortress, OpenTTD and Wesnoth. ... dumb casual that can't read ... First of all, check your superiority complex. These ideas that only idiots like quick-fix puzzle games and that "real" gamers should like games th...

Just because a game is complex and requires experience to play well doesn't mean that making it easier for new players to get into it and reducing dependence on outside information sources and notes aren't worthy goals. So chill out. Having a tutorial and more helpful UI isn't turning Transcendence ...

I'm gonna keep recommending prosilver.

There's really nothing more I can say: this is a bad idea . I must say that hitscan weapons are incredibly unrealistic even considering that this game is already very unrealistic, and adding them to Part 1 would cross the line. EDIT: Furthermore, hitscan weapons are also at the very extreme end of ...

This is because the escorts only have their orders changed back to guard when the station's <OnTrafficControl> event runs, which is every 8 seconds. If you accept a mission between when the freighter docks and that event, the escort will keep escorting. Here's the fix: https://github.com/kronosaur/T...

Didn't Huarin Destroyers recharge their shields if they were no longer being attacked ?

They still do recharge their shields with coils (until they run out).

The disabling of the Loot action if no items are present works well too. Credit to NMS. Glad you like it. Are there still station destruction missions available in Rigel? I haven't seen one for a while. Yes, but Commonwealth habitat missions are only available if there's a hostile station within 50...

I agree that it's more interesting when factions have special loot tables or specific items. But the vast majority don't. So it seems reasonable to have an option for a simple XML attribute to tell the game to automatically generate an appropriate chance of appropriate fuel and/or other loot. This i...

We still need more meaningful specialisation, and limitations, of ships before there's a compelling reason for ship swapping besides the novelty value. Agreed. Currently the hull mostly determines the speed/maneuverability and number of armor segments, and these stats are similar for most non-capit...

This is a case of lack of documentation really biting you... (itmSetData item attrib data [count]) does not change the item you pass it, it just returns a new item with the data set. You have to use (objSetItemData obj item attrib data [count]). You can also use (objAddItem obj (itmSetData item attr...

This mod reduces the range of almost all weapons in the game with range greater than 15 light seconds, according to the formula newRange = oldRange / 3 + 10. This makes the typical weapon range 30, keeping most combat on the main screen (SRS) for typical modern monitors. But longer ranged weapons s...

Something I noticed is missing: dockscreen <Action>s can specify what they do with subelements, including <Exit/> and <ShowPane pane="pane" />.

Maybe you should allow custom subelements and attributes for all elements?

That text field is not editable for me. Neither is the one containing the element tag, which would occasionally be useful to rename an element without having to recreate all its contents. I'm running Java 8 update 141 on Windows 8. Sorry, I'm not sure if any of the files that failed to load actually...
