Bug Reports & Support / Crash during long engagement: "Fatal: Key [damageType] has invaild value in..."

« on: June 01, 2012, 12:26:21 PM »

I just had a crash occur while playing the Ironclads 2.7 mod (http://fractalsoftworks.com/forum/index.php?topic=431.0).
As I don't know whether it is a bug that may also occur in the base game or related to the mod, I'll post it here AND in the mod thread.

During a very long battle with an RSF system defense fleet (I was 15 or maybe even 20 minutes in) the game just crashed, giving me the error message seen below.

Suggestions / Codex: Filtering/Browsing/Searching by more statistics

« on: April 14, 2012, 06:28:07 AM »

Thinking of a future with way more different ships and weapons available it would be nice if the Codex got a few extra features added.

Currently you have the option of browsing ships or weapons, filtering them by ship size and weapon size&class and then selecting from an alphabetical list.

However, seeing as a lot more statistics about ships and weapons are registered, it'd be nice to be able to browse for more specific things.
Like "show all cruiser-size ships between X and Y FP and order them by how many medium weapon mounts they have" or "show all large ballistic weapons that deal high explosive damage and order them by their DPS/Flux-per-second efficiency" or "show all weapons that have point defense AI functionality built in without requiring the hull mod".

Basically the option to choose more filters or things to order the available ships and equipment by and more things to search for (is there even a "search" function right now) to turn the Codex into a full-blown in-game wiki of the game that updates dynamically depending on what modded content you have installed.


Of course I realize this is not of major importance right now because, even in a highly modded version, there is still an overseeable amount of ships and equipment, but at some point in the future it will be very helpful so I thought I might aswell put it out there now.
