I've been playtesting my own mod ship with only 2 armor segments,
and everything seemed fine so far.

I'd gotten heavily dameged, and I fled to the Sisters of Domina and asked for help, and the game crashed when I selected Pilgrim's Aid > Repair armor there.
No error log recorded.


My question is, was my mod bad or the code for the Sisters of Domina was bad?
Since I can't understand the script well, I can not tell which is the source of the problem, and of course I am not able to fix the problem myself, which is the real problem.

...well, by the way, is there some suitable place to upload the mod files in question?

EDIT: Now I uploaded the files on the unofficial forum using trickery.

Definitely a bug in Sisters of Domina code. That code only works for ships with 4 armor segments. I will fix it in a future release. Thank you!

Thank you very much for clarifying the problem,
and I look forward to the future release!


So, by the way, the mod I uploaded should be workable without change
after all (while Yugi's suggestion on the unofficial forum will be helpful
to improve its quality - thanks!), but I playtested it further and
now I noticed that having fewer armor parts is not always a drawback,
so it'd need some more tweaking for a formal release
(if I should release it, that is.)

Code: Select all

(enum '(0 1 2 3) armorSeg
That is the part from the repair armor in the sisters of domina code that looks to be the problem to me...
You should be able to change that to

Code: Select all

(enum '(0 1) armorSeg
For 2 segments or increase the number for more segments.
George would know for sure, but that is what it looks like to me.

I guess you would have to copy the entire dockscreen over to your extension for that to work.

Or better yet, replace the whole thing with something that finds the number of armor segments installed and sizes the array accordingly ;)
