Heyas, just wanted to say that I've finally gotten around to testing the new build.  Major kudos; a lot of the "little stuff" has been fixed up and it's a joy to use

Bug report.

1.  Found bug in custom engines read from JSON, where Starsector works but SsEd breaks.

This is fine in both places:

Code

	"exigencyEngine":{
		"engineColor":[241,234,207,100],
		"contrailParticleSizeMult":0.5,
		"contrailParticleDuration":0.1,
		"contrailMaxSpeedMult":0.1f,
		"contrailAngularVelocityMult":0.0f,
		"contrailColor":[241,234,207,100],
		"type":"SMOKE" # GLOW or SMOKE
	},	

This breaks SsEd, but not Starsector.

Code

	"exigencyEngine":{
		"engineColor":[241,234,207,100],
		"contrailParticleSizeMult":0.5,
		"contrailParticleDuration":0.1,
		"contrailMaxSpeedMult":0.1,
		"contrailAngularVelocityMult":0,
		"contrailColor":[241,234,207,100],
		"type":"SMOKE" # GLOW or SMOKE
	},	

2.  If there is a WPN defined in data/weapons, but no corresponding CSV entry, the selection list for putting weapons on gets borked.

This also works under linux as well through wine- if you've no allready been told... Least, as far as i know, hopefully i can make a ship an start my own thread here an get involved with the comunity more.


Albeit slowly... =3=;

This cool editor needs an update with support for built_in hull mods that were introduced with 0.6a.

[NITROtbomb]

for the wineskin version for the mac the weapon editor doesn't work, the buttons used to access that section are blacked out.

ah...first of send that to me in the mac version thread i made, ill have a look at it.

I'll be doing a 0.6a pass on the editor soon, to make sure that all the new features introduced are supported. It's been a long time since I touched the codebase though, and I program for a living, so none of it's in my head anymore; but, it definitely helps me if you do find an error, attach the data files that caused your problem and a description of how to reproduce it, and I'll make sure it gets addressed.

[WKOB]

Hey uh, out of curiosity, is this still a viable way to make ships or is it somewhat out-dated?

No offense, Trylobot, love that you kept this going for as long as you did.

[Trylobot]

I've been using it all week. It's fine. The only thing you can't do in here at the moment is, specifically, built-in hullmods. Everything else still works.

And I'll be updating even that, soon.

[WKOB]

Ah, very cool. Thanks!

[Okim]

You also have to manually remove decorated weapons from variants saved by it. But otherwise its a nice and extremely helpful tool.

[ValkyriaL]

I'm getting an Exception_access_Violation every single time i try to start the editor, waaaaaaaaaaaiiiiiiii

[Okim]

Just reinstall it. It happens from time to time.

Starsector 0.6a introduced an ability to customise ships explosion, shield etc. colours (taken from a file like custom engines). Would be great to have this in your editor.

[Trylobot]

There is feature with the ship editor that is missing. If you have built in weapons, the delete the weapon mounts, it fails to delete the built in weapons line in the .hull. Also, the weapon editor would be nice!

Sorry for the slight derail...
