Using 2.8.3; there's an occasional crash where I can't load into a save because some hullmod has become void and then the savegame becomes corrupted.  Can't get the old starsector log, will try to reproduce....
Same here, second save goes to the bin. DialbeAvionics upgrade something something.
Find out it involves the java 23 seems it cant load or find the hullmods upgrades.
so i think this mod is not compatible with the java 23
I'm using the Mikohime package (re: Java 23) and Diable Avionics v2.8.3 and am not getting said crashes attempting to load my saves; no one else has the relevant ERROR entries from starsector.log?

EDIT: Also, this is the wrong thread to post these reports to; either do so in 'Bug Reports & Support (modded)', or in presidentmattdamon's newer mod discussion thread.
Saves got broken after Starsector relaunch, inside one session load worked fine. (I use Miko's java too)

A word of warning: it seems that president matt damon has inserted malicious code into Diable Avionics. The purpose of the code is to ruin your save file if you have a certain other mod installed.

See here for more details:
https://www.reddit.com/r/starsector/comments/1b9coro/diable_avionics_has_malware_in_its_code/

The author has even admitted doing so on discord: https://imgur.com/a/rlvHZmx

Supposedly, the malicious code has been removed as of version 2.8.4

Yup, not going to download any mod he's worked on from now on. I'm not trusting people who deliberately insert malicious code in their mods no matter their reasoning.

I think the forum as a whole should take a firm stance on this. Can't enable this kind of behavior.

In before this also gets locked.

I've seen the drama unfold from the sidelines and wished to stay out of it, but this is a really new low. I want to see people enjoy the game, not try to engage in one-ups in this sort of manner. This sort of attitude is NOT what I'd want to be representing this wonderful game and community. If anything, I'd say this should warrant more stringent consequences for this kind of petty behaviour.

However, I am not anticipating much. Colour me disappointed.

I am a drama queen myself (really!), but, please,

REFRAIN FROM POSTING DRAMA IN THIS TOPIC

0.95 version is not affected, it was never maintained by Matt.

This version is safe to use with anything. Burn bright.

Hi everyone - we are aware of the issue and will be discussing it and next steps once that whole sleep thing is dealt with. In the meantime as there are now several informational warnings posted, I ask that people please try to keep drama off of this forum and not post here any more about it. I would prefer for this thread to remain unlocked.

If you have information or opinions you want heard, please DM them to me. I can't promise I will respond, but I will read them and collect the contents for further discussion among the moderation team.

It is worth noting that reverting BACK to this version from the malicious version is not possible at least in my case.  Upon loading a savegame it throws an error about a missing hullmod and closes the game.  If you do not have said hullmod installed in a ship you might be able to get away with it but chances are your save is bricked unless you keep using the malwared version.  I had heard of the drama going on so i guess going against my gut and not avoiding the shiny new version is on me.

Either way this whole situation got me to actually make an account after years of lurking so there is that.

Hello everyone, new to the modding community! Registered for this comment, lol.

I hope that the storm will subside, in any case, the community is wonderful, no matter what conflicts arise. These people are capable of a lot, and I would like to hope word “destroy” not to be on this list.

I'm afraid for my save now, it's not cool. I also don’t really understand where to find a complete list of all versions of this mod. Anyway, when I try to download the new version 2.8.4 version 2.8.2 is downloaded.. Is this how it should be?

Getting real tired of this kind of ***.

Nice ! Thanks.

Is there an option at all to have the "clean" or "cleaned" versions be mirrored at all or is it too early/drama still happening ?

I'm asking because after a few good years i wanted to get back into this and this hurts to see stuff like this happen.
I just wanna play with the cool robots man come on.
