I keep getting a Fatal error while playing Exigency ships in my fleet,

This is the error in particular, it seems to be randomly triggered too.

It seems to be when I trigger the teleportation. But beyond that I've no clue how to fix it.
Mod list please?

ShaderLib and GraphicsLib perform the same function, the latter being the newer reincarnation of the two.

Remove ShaderLib basically.

You might want to check the versions of the mods you have against their latest one. I can't tell what's the version your mods are except Exigency and Tiandong.

Other advice: http://fractalsoftworks.com/forum/index.php?topic=11462.0

Also, may I interest you in trying out the SCY Nation, Outer Rim Alliance and Dassault-Mikoyan Engineering mods? SCY is supported by Dyna and has great strike weapons, while the ORA brings broadsides and beam denial, and DME brings in fast ships of pristine white and strike power.

I actually wasn't aware ShaderLib & GraphicsLib were one in the same actually.

I've already got Dessault downloaded

Does the faction have a starting planet? Ive tried a few new games and it spawns me on Serratum Barren world. Ive check the galaxy map and cannot find ANY planets which exigency owns...

ive downloaded nearly every faction mod which is compatible with Nexerelin and playing on Corvus mode.

Exigency does not have any markets in Corvus mode. This is intended.

They can have market in Nex random mode.


Association have Avesta station in hyperspace as their market in Corvus mode.

Exigency can have a market in Corvus mode if they successfully invade a market or the player does it for them while holding their comission.

Note that the open market in Exigency controlled markets are empty. So you'll have to snatch the black market, hunt their fleets, use Prism Freeport and/or snatch stuff from Avesta station.

Well, I am back after building a new rig after my last one randomly died! Still setting it up as a work space as that takes a while as my old one was vast and highly configured with many programs.

SainnQ, I am... Surprised at that crash considering how much I test and sometimes outsource testing of my scripts heh. Sometime soon, I would like to send you a test as a fixed .jar file via private message to make sure it is fixed on your rig will that be OK? Least it works for most, but I sincerely apologize that my mod is causing you problems.

Ok so feedback heard, and truthfully it is not issues I was not aware of... The Repulsor scales badly in the campaign due to the *** stupid shot muzzle velocity increase skill as the way it works mechanically and as a simplified explanation is:

The longer the projectile is inside the Repulsor radius the greater the chance is of it being deflected, while there is a bit more to it than that in the end that is mostly it. It is a sub optimal way of doing it and I have been mulling over changing it mechanically for a while. But just like I had to cut some of my plans from the 0.7.2 update of Exi, some things just never did materialize yet. I am thinking about adding a very weak Damper Field like damage resist to the hull while the Repulsor is active, to protect somewhat against beams, EMP arcs, AOE damage, and making shots that bypass the Repulsor less punishing. I am also thinking about rewriting the thing almost entirely to take shot velocity out of the equation for the bypass chance. With a more complex formula that ignores shot speed, and only factors in the distance between the edge of the Repulsor radius and the hull itself along the current path of the shot... It would be complicated, but in short it would make it a bit more reliable but the plan never survives the execution totally intact after all so who knows exactly what the end product will be with something so complex.

Another thing to consider is, overall 0.8 mechanics changes will proxy buff Exi in a various ways. I could explain the reasons of the why and how, but no point really if one keeps track of the patch notes and thinks about it some but one thing I will mention in specific is. Exi is pretty much for the industry play style that will be possible in 0.8 which is interesting to say the least.

But besides some buffs here and there but more importantly mechanics changes, I am working slowly but surely on Exi ship and weapon sprite improvements, a couple of new Exi weapons, new Exi ships, some Association weapons, and replacing all the Association ships entirely as in brand new everything so the mediocrity of their old combat modus operandi will no longer exist in any form. That list of stuff is in no particular order or promised to all appear in one patch.

Here is one replacement Association ship, wip sprite and what you see there is not exactly what will appear in game and don't look if you don't like spoilers.

But yea, working on lots of stuff and I read, understand, and appreciate all the feedback and while I knew of much of it myself additional angles are always appreciated :)

IBB of a mission not an indicator. They are insufficiently difficult. "Indra" this the best that it has a mod but is one but. On him it is impossible to kill even the cruiser. And a fight with a destroyer already risk. For example "Sunder" with "High intensity laser" will kill you with 100% guarantee. It will be necessary only to run it is impossible to reach him enough fast before he kills you.

Battlecarrier Irithia - it is the worst carrier from all. There are no arms. There is no survivability. There is no speed. And self-destructive AI. Teleport to itself "Onslaught" which kills this trough in seconds? Of course! It is ingenious!

But only present what with these fractions is done "Kngiht Templars" in battle. It is just blood, guts and meat.

Establishing this of fashion I thought that I will receive one more interesting, evil fraction as the strong opponent (as Templars) and have received enemies of which even to kill is uninteresting, and to play using their ships it is impossible in my conditions.

Just think. What to be at war with such stuff against the opponent having characteristics equal to the player and in such quantities.

In such conditions it is very well visible what the vessel is capable of. The ships of it mod are only capable to explode.
I'm sorry but why are you complaining about a mod being weak when you have PIRATES putting out fleets like that and you are messing around with ship files and most likely using outdated mods? Hell, I can't even BUILD that Conquest due to how much it has been messed with. And it has to have unspent OP as well as I can not spend all of it and match those stats. Try updating ALL of your mods and using un modded vanilla files. THEN you can b**** about balance and "unpowered" mods

Exigency ships explode too easily people say, the Repulsor is not reliable enough people say (not incorrect assessments).

I think this change in the next version works out real nice :)

Edit: Thanks Imgur, it ate my gif for some reason. It appears to be sped up by about 30% when I know for a fact my export was running at the correct FPS.

Whatever fatal error I kept tripping previously, is not long an issue.

Neither for the most recent build of the mod available, or a dev-build of Exigency.
I'm going to assume it might have something to do with me getting frustrated and just reinstalling SS entirely with a fresh install of 64-bit Java included for any out of memory gremlins.

So, problem solved.

I might actually try flying their ships after this one. I never liked the repulsors, but this looks promising

Honestly just build out Armor tanking skills and your good to go, I rarely even use the Repulsor unless someone's vomiting a swarm of missiles or HiX Ammunitions at me.
