Hmm - is this an actual crash or just an error in the log/mission screen? Either way a clean install of the game should fix this, I believe.

Any reason why Gorgons and Dragonfires have their damage listed as "Special"? I get that they deal damage over time but so do other burst beams. It's just for consistency sake from my point of view. You also can't tell from the tooltip that the medium Gorgon launches 2 missiles at a time, since every other missile example of such mechanic has "Damage - damage x number of payloads".

This is almost certainly the result of a saved mission variant from 0.9.1 or earlier. Open up your saves folder, find the 'missions' folder under that, and delete it.

Not sure if anyone else mentioned it yet but the nova burst ship system description doesn't show up because the "nova_burst" text is listed under "nova_device".

Thank you, fixed this up.

Relatedly, just a reminder that you CAN have multiple versions of Starsector installed next to one another. There's no problem, beyond storage, with leaving your .95.1 install in place next to your .96.

Hotfix for the Gilead shrine intel crash is up! Also included: fix for the Nova system description, d-mod names having the wrong color, and the wrong (Sebestyen-specific) signoffs for generic contacts.

How would you do this?

I just installed it to a new directory and did the usual pre-game setup (editing vmparams, swapping Java 8, turning DPI scaling to application etc), and it seems to work fine. If you make two .exe shortcuts you can pick whichever version of the game you want to run.

Ah mb then. Enjoying the update otherwise.

Just install it in its own folder. Call the folder "Starsector 0.96" or somesuch. Keep it in the Fractal Softworks folder for ease of sorting.

Hell, I haven't gotten rid of my .95 install yet.

Was JackHammer nerfed during playtesting? I remember reading somewhere it has 9 ammo, but now I see 6 in total. Was probably too potent, I'm just curious.

Also wooow I am super glad for "smart" weapons actually firing when they should. Both IR Autolance and Mining Blaster (which is finally a decent weapon for a change).

EDIT: Also also, I really dig the explosions now that I can disable the flashbang.

Yeah, it felt like a bit much!
