I think I found an issue.  The game crashes when I try to shift click a bunch of gattler guns into a fire group.  Happens no matter what it seems

Would you specify which ship you are referring to?

If it happens to be a ship with modules (like the Gadolinite, Anthracite or Diaboleite), I'm afraid I can't solve that one, it happens to other mods that have ships with modules that happened to have scroll bar for the Fire Group as well.

The only way I know to mitigate the issue was to scroll down for the UI to "see" every gun in the Fire Group window before auto-assigning them.

When installing built-in mods, does each module have its own allotment?  Like 2 for the Anthracite's core and 2 per arm?  or just the core part?

Yeah, that's how it works. Basically like another ship but is a part of a bigger ship.

So, was the Alum intended to be nigh-on immortal when it activates the system? I don't think anything frigate-sized should be able to sustain over ten seconds of concentrated firepower from nearly every gun on an Anthracite and still be alive. Actually, I'd be inclined to say that nothing short of a dreadnought or particularly tanky capital should be able to do that.

Like, it's extremely noticeable how the Alum basically turns itself into an unkillable brick with consistent regularity whenever anything remotely threatening approaches. The amount of time invested in killing them was funny the first three times, but I'm on number thirty and it's less humorous.

Before XLU, Choosing a ship;
Is the burst fire is enough to overcome target's defense?
Could ship's defences hold against a focused fire?
Can it disengage from a tight spot?
Can AI use the ship efficiently?
Slot layout?
Is it compatible with rest of the fleet?
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
(Does continue)
After XLU, choosing a ship;
Is it faster than a cruiser? (optional)
How many Kalis fighters it can field?

Just get a couple of Kalis Superheavy fighters. With 6k range, they will die in 20 seconds.

I've thrown Charges at it to curb the pebble, hopefully.

Nah, it goes by the phrase:
Does it have XTRA-XTRA Dakka?

Lots of fun stuff in this new update!  Could it be possible though to have the bonus crew have their full effect if you have the commission crew bonus from the Union?  After all that bonus is already described as having a set of elite XLU gunners on board so I'd imagine the special crew mods could easily be justified as working fully?

I'll see if I could do something about this. It's a bit of experiment to work around unrestricted hullmods, which should be interesting.

Awesome!  They’re some really awesome hull mods but you might want to make them more expensive as they are really good.

Also an amusing side thing.  If you're going to the XLU home worlds from the core worlds you'll almost always fly straight over the Alpha site :P  Which means you can more or less see the Alpha Site jump point from the start of the game which isn't too much of an issue.  But still it does mean with this mod you almost find the Alpha Site jump point by default XD

Bug Report: The Uranium's hanger section is missing the "Baseless Module" the other sections have. Also since those pieces have a burn level of 4 it drags the rest of my fleet down hard.
