Keep getting a very sudden CTD NullPointerException, but only with the new version of Nex, the old one works fine:

Argh.

Okay, you can do one of two things:
1) Turn off DME (and any other non-supported factions)
2) Make a copy of Nexerelin/data/configs/exerelinFactionConfig/neutral.json and rename it to dassault_mikoyan.json.
Might also need to change the value of uniqueModClassName in the file to data.scripts.DMEModPlugin.java.

[Orikson]

Ok. So that's a workaround for DME is it? Just for Corvus mode compatibility I assume.

[DrakonST]

 Perfectly! I am happy. Only there is one question:

Fix patrol generation bugs

What bug?

[Histidine]

Ok. So that's a workaround for DME is it? Just for Corvus mode compatibility I assume.

It'll work in Corvus mode if you do that, yeah. (DME never worked in non-Corvus mode to begin with)

Only there is one question:

Fix patrol generation bugs

What bug?

• Most factions didn't obey the patrol size mult tag
• The core script was being added twice, which may have resulted in patrol script being added twice to each market

[Sutopia]

Random generated systems sometimes go too big, making some planets and stations out of the tab minimap.

Invading stations do generate respond fleet, but sometimes they escape from you if your ships are much superior than theirs and  you will be able to capture station without turning neutral faction to hostile since you didn't officially fire at them.

[Dark.Revenant]

Invading stations do generate respond fleet, but sometimes they escape from you if your ships are much superior than theirs and  you will be able to capture station without turning neutral faction to hostile since you didn't officially fire at them.

Reminds me of some WW2 stories.

[Histidine]

you will be able to capture station without turning neutral faction to hostile since you didn't officially fire at them.

That shouldn't be possible, both starting an invasion attempt and completing it successfully (as long as this market wasn't the faction's last) makes the target faction insta-hostile.

[Sutopia]

Maybe I got something wrong(about the initial relation) but I do remember when I attempt to "chase down" the responding fleet (after capping) it showed the check message of turning into war state which indicates that it was previously higher than -50.

[DrakonST]

Houston, we have problems.

The menu goes beyond and it is impossible to finish other settings. Point 10 has no hot key. 9 works but there "Starfarer mode'. Of course "Esc" works. But how to be with other settings?

Also. I disable independent in mod config but they have appeared at a new game.

Also #2. Error.

You also need to add it to 'mod_factions.csv', in case anyone was still getting the error.

[Harmful Mechanic]

The message I'm getting is that I should hurry up with integration .

[whatdoesthisbuttondo]

The message I'm getting is that I should hurry up with integration .

Some very basic compatibility could be as easy as this change in your initDME() method in DMEModPlugin.java:

Code

        try {  
            //Got Exerelin, so load Exerelin  
            Class<?> def = Global.getSettings().getScriptClassLoader().loadClass("exerelin.campaign.SectorManager");  
            Method method;  
            try {  
                method = def.getMethod("getCorvusMode");  
                Object result = method.invoke(def);  
                if ((Boolean)result == true)  
                {  
                    // Exerelin running in Corvus mode, go ahead and generate our sector  
                	new Nikolaev().generate(Global.getSector());
                }  
            } catch (Exception ex) {  
                // check failed, do nothing  
            }  
        }
		catch (ClassNotFoundException ex) {
            new Nikolaev().generate(Global.getSector());
            // Exerelin not found so continue and run normal generation code
        }

I thought it might be DME, but even running with DME off or with the workaround led to the crash. I reverted to 7.5c, no problems so far.
