I would get a crash and error message when I deploy two of my custom ships in combat. But notably when they actually engage an enemy, here is the logs

With my limited java experience, it looks like a variable you've got set up is being referenced as the wrong type? Not sure though.

More importantly, this should probably be under Bug Reports & Support (Modded) - http://fractalsoftworks.com/forum/index.php?board=14.0

So it looks like the game doesn't like my oversized laser

Its basically the state support beam with a resized beam and fielding two ships with the same weapon causes the crash

'Eck that's a big laser. 

What might be helpful is if you were to copy-paste in the file for this beam weapon (ie. the "[WEAPON].wpn" file), but given that the error the game is throwing is a java error (not a json or null error) I'm struggling to think how that could be the case.

What sort of advanced... stuff... do you have alongside this weapon? As in, onHitEffect scripts and the like? Any of those, and if so what do they do?

[stross]

Its really just a copypaste beam weapon with modified damage values in the spreadsheet. I managed to fix the issue by copypasting a tachyon lance. Thanks you so much for the help though

Alex moved this thread here from there, so I think not.

That recommendation of mine was before it was moved.

I'd consider a ClassCastException occurring inside obfuscated SS code to be a bug in the base game's modding API; allowing an invalid type parameter either due to flawed method signature or insufficient runtime type checking.
