I just got time to try out the new update. The new abyss area is fascinating!

I'll try building a colony soon to try out the crisis events.

Thanks for the update Alex.

I'm a version behind - did this get fixed in the new version?

I've taken a look at that specific line of code, but have not been able to reproduce the error.
Still I will try to make a release tonight with a null check on that specific line.

May I ask for some additional context on what happened immediately before the crash:
1. Which version of the Solonis Union mod are you using?
2. Were you playing in Random Core Worlds Mode?
3. Also, do you remember which market were you visiting before the crash?

I noticed that the Sindrian Diktat now have two new special fleets that spawn using PersonalFleetScript.java.

I was wondering if Deputy Star Marshal Oxana Hyder should have a level higher than Level 1?

If I look into People.java, it looks like she does have 4 admiral skills, but otherwise she is lower level than her subordinate captains.

Thank you for the wonderful mod!

I particularly enjoy using the Rampage Drive on the Indomitable-class Cruiser and Flagellator-class Destroyer, to the point where I often overextend myself.

I even had the chance to ram an Imperium battleship into an Imperium Battlestar the other day:

For fighter, is there an easy way to compare their weaponry when choosing to outfit a carrier?

Something like the Super Aria has 3 different weapons with unknown parameters:
1 x 40mm CN Class I (Some kind of kinetic)
2 x AMSSM Class III (HE?)
2 x HVAR Class I (HE?)

You can check the details of the weapons by pressing F1 to switch between the weapon details.

Thank you so much!

Over 300 hours of gameplay and I never noticed something as simple as this!

Now I can spend many more hours comparing weapons!

Thank you for the Mod!

Lots of high quality sprites to digest and good music as well.

So far I am loving the Shinoria (SP) with 5 Clemente MRM. Lots of medium missile firepower in subcapital combat.
Perhaps this strategy will falter when I begin battling with capitals.
