I was *** around, and found that even on a fresh new game, trying to spawn a Nemean Lion-class Elite Battle Fortress in the simulator causes an instant crash as soon as I tab-out to begin fighting. The errors I get in the .log are "unable to spawn nodes", NullPointerExceptions, involving NemeanRootShip. Also SCY_ArmorPlating.advanceInCombat. If you need more info, I can move the .log file to the right PC to add it to this post.
I am also using the Simulator Overhaul 1.0 mod with Star Sector + (they conflict, but only in functionality, not in any fatal way.)
After disabling the overhaul mod, I still crash in the same way when doing the same thing.
Is this known / intentional? Thanks.
