Got a Problem: Crashing with new ship.

Hello all.

I have developed a rather odd problem. I added a new freighter to my Hostile universe mod and placed it inside my new system called Newmars. I've been flying around newmars playing testing and ballancing the new ship and everything appears to be working just fine.

However, when i jump to another system like Frankfurt or Newyork in the new system the server crashes out. If i jump to the same two systems in a standard light fighter thats found all over liberty the server does not crash out.

Now the ships configured and working, the systems are working, the jumpgates are working. So why is the server crashing with the new ship when Newmars system is ok ?

Heres a paste of my ships current stats from shiparch.ini. Still ballancing these.

Im going to try using the ship without any upgrades to see if that works because right now the ship allows level 10 guns and shields.

Any ideas as to the cause of the crash ?

I seem to get a lot of no replies to techy questions here.

Oh well.

I made a new mod, tried it in muliplayer and it crashed. I tried the same mod in single player and was there for 3 hours without a single crash.

So im blaming freelancers multiplayer routines for my problems and moving on to single player instead.
