FL Explorer bug in new version

Wed Apr 06, 2005 2:03 am by Gibbon

Hi Louva,

Don't know if you know about this one, just discovered it myself lol.

Trying to edit Tohoku system, i clicked on show zones as i wanted to see if there were any round Ryuku base.... CLOSES DOWN everytime i click on SHOW ZONES and crashes back to desktop. Back to the old fashioned way for now then, at least in Tohoku

This also happens for one of the other SP systems. We will look into it.

Ok, here's another,

Patrol paths, some work some don't. Tried to include a trade path for Universal shipping from one base to another. Loaded ok but when player ship encounters any ship on said path i get a CTD everytime. Thought you'd like to know

Right, found something else now

When you create a base and use the copy all npc's button, while it creates the files in mbases.ini for some reason they don't show up at the new base when ur in the game. Only solution seems to be to find the base you used as a template and copy that manually from original FL then all seems fine.

Patrol paths crashing - one fairly common CTD with patrol paths is a missing edge_fraction parameter for any zones the patrol passes through.

Npc's not copying - I have noticed this myself and should be fixed in next beta, which should be coming pretty soon.

@ Louva

Further to the Tohoku crash problem. One thing i've noticed with this system is once you define any sort of npc zone, save & quit, when you reload FLE and try to click on show zones, it all works fine

Must be something to do with the fact no encounters are defined to start with cos once you have one, no problems!

Re : Patrol paths

Is there any round getting these working using FLE or do i have to do it the old fashioned way?

Hopefully that will be fixed in the next beta but it might have to wait for the following one. Part of the problem with the patrol implementation is the original author's lack of understanding about how patrols work and what their limitations are. Will take a while to fix.

Posted a tutorial about removing asteroids from tradelanes and around bases using FLE. Was annoying me no end till i worked it out so thought i'd pass on what i've figured out

I'm having a bug where I get a crash when I create a new docking ring, I started the universe over from scratch but kept NY.

What type of loadout are u giving your trade lane? If you've deleted all the other systems its possible your solararch.ini has been amended or more to the point the loadouts that refer to items in solararch.

For instance if you're trying to put a kusari tradelane loadout on your tradelane and you've already deleted the loadout for that then that would do it.

@Gibbon - I responded to your tutorial.

@reagan64 - How exactly did you 'start over' ? Also where is your error log?

Thx Louva, just got into the habit of editing it myself but nice to see you can do the base exlcusion stuff from within FLE now! Improving all the time

You will be seing the benefits of using FLE soon in the upcoming GALACTICA-HELLGATE mod from Gizmo Studios

That feature has been in FLE for over two years now.
