Autofit adds capacitors instead of fighters
« on: April 23, 2017, 09:37:26 AM »

Tried saving a hammerhead variant that used Converted Hanger with a wing of Spark interceptors - autofit installed the converted hangar hull mod, but left the resulting fighter bay empty and added 8 extra capacitors instead.

Finally got to this - having a hard time reproducing it, and the code seems like it should work. Hmm.

Huh.  It's happening for me with 100% reliability; autofit won't strip fighters off if I have them installed (unless I check the "strip before autofitting" button), but it definitely won't install them for me.  Do save files include player-specified autofit targets, and if so, would it help for me to send you a save file that demonstrates this?

Noticed this when attempting to refit a Mora; completely empty hull, auto-fit failed to put any fighters in it - even though I had plenty of the exactly fighters specified in the design. (3xSpark ;)

Perhaps because some of the vulcan cannons on the ship had been substituted for other weapons?

The custom autofit targets are in the same, and it would be super helpful to have it, yeah.

Possibly something else I fixed for autofit also fixed this? Guess we'll see :)

Save sent.  I tried to make a nice convenient minimalist save for you... but apparently dropping off everything but my recently-acquired Mora and a single hammerhead literally doubled the size of the (compressed) save.  Odd.  So I sent the smaller version; shouldn't be too hard to demonstrate there.

Edit: Stupid me compressed the wrong save; had the folder sorted alphabetically instead of by time stamp.  Oops.

Edit2: Alex reports that this happens specifically with Remnant fighters (and that he'll fix it tomorrow).  Now we know!

Thanks for the save! Fixed, turns out I forgot to add some tags to the wings to make them work with autofit.
