I tried using the mod in the new version but I disabled it. The reason being when I loaded into the game and went into the starting station I noticed a Large Missile on sale that didn't have its icon aligned properly. It sticking out of its icon grid and for some reason that ruined my immersion in the game, I felt it unplayable and disabled the mod. I am now not sure if this was a default bug or from it being out of date. So I thought I would mention it, sorry I can't recall what missile it was, only that it was a large missile.

Sorry for ruining your immersion, but i want to inform you that VIC doesn't have any missiles.

Merry Christmas!

Has this error/crash been reported yet?  If it has, I apologize, I just wanted to be sure it had been:

My bad then, it wasn't a missile but a Large Energy or Ballistic weapon. It clearly was a Vic Large Weapon judging but the Vic weapon distinctive design, (I didn't actually mouse over the miss aligned icon, just saw it and deiced the mod was broken and excited an disabled it). On a side note I have noticed some large weapons spaz out (extending out of the icon border or being cut off abruptly when encroaching on another icons panel) when they have a huge stock in the station. I think this type of design bug only really comes from modded weapons that use to large an icon for their weapons.

I will note that combat was glitching out shortly before crash; VIC ship whose shields were getting shot at had erratic, then zero flux despite getting shot at. Shield was flickering as well. Ship didn't take much damage either.
Will also note this was following installation of various mods, potential culprits being MagicLib update (for being a new update of magiclib) and ED Shipyard (discord version, for being ED Shipyard)

Said flickering effect would be interesting as a sort of graphical thing; like if a ship gets shot at with high damage projectile(s), from a specific weapon, or is nearing max flux...

[Drazhya]

I got the same crash after updating MagicLib; don't have ED Shipyard. It was the first time in a while that I fought VIC ships though, so *shrugs*.

[Hatter]

Respec-ing officers isn't working. I assume this is a known issue and will be fixed in the compatibility patch.

there's a special building that can be built to mitigate (idk if it completely gets rid of it) the effects on affected planets, it might also need you to have good rep w/ vic (can't remember off the top of my head)

Beautiful and interesting ships. One thing that is really bothering me though is that i've tried starting as VIC twice and both times I had officers using the same portrait. It's super immersion breaking. The first time 3 officers had the same portrait. Never had this kind of problem before. Is this an easy fix?

Are you playing on the latest version of the mod (1.4.1)?

[OperaWolf]

Yes. Just to be sure though, this is the version file:

{
    "masterVersionFile":"https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AstaratStarsector/Starsector_VIC/master/VIC/vic_version.version",
    "modName":"VIC",
    "modThreadId":"19603",
    "modVersion":
    {
        "major":1,
        "minor":4,
        "patch":1,
    },
}

Funnily enough, I had a (unrelated) crash from VIC earlier and checked for an update. Found the newest version, found it fixed the old crash, deleted the old VIC from my mods, installed the new one, had the new crash happen almost immediately after.

Some notes:

1. I'm running it on an ongoing save.
1a. I deleted the old VIC file and then installed the new one. I did not replace the files or install over the old ones or other weirdness.
2. I tried the fight that was causing the crash a half-dozen times and eventually cleared it without a CTD, so not sure what's up; it's not guaranteed to happen, apparently.
2a. The one where I made it through, I tried to keep to the outskirts and away from the main fighting. The error log made me think it was something visual, so I figured if the game didn't have to display it, maybe it wouldn't CTD. I was possibly correct.
3. I have two VIC ships in my fleet (Samael and Thamuz) and they get pretty steady use, so it isn't all VIC ships.
3a. I also use a lot of VIC weapons (off-topic, but seriously amazing work on the armaments), so it isn't all the weapons either. I can provide a list of what I actively use if it's helpful, though I assume you can test it all more easily than I can.

Got hit with another one. I have a Valafar in my colony storage. This crash comes up whenever I scroll down to it. Crashes as soon as a single pixel of it pops up on my monitor. Oddly, none of the other VIC ships in that storage cause this; there's actual two right at the top that would cause a CTD immediately if they did. Anyway, could be because I'm on a game in progress; not sure if clean saves have this issue.
