Thanks for the reports, I have written them down for the next release, although if you find any story breaking bug I would have to release another RC *sigh*

@Lotrek
 

Bryna & KT: just to be sure, can it be that maybe your Screen Res is too small for the Dialogue?, just asking since some people did had the problem before.

GK LocData: Where did you even get these cannons?, hephaestus?, because the text for these GK Cannons aren't even present in the vanilla game at all, Notepad++ gives no results, and the main 3 files for module locdata also do not have these GK's in them.

I am using 1440 x 900 which I've used in the past with no problem, I'll switch it up next time I play and check. As to the cannons, they dropped from the asteroid gun platforms in Hesphestus (sp?). They are the ring of gun platforms you have to fly through in the early game as part of the mission to get your first new licence plate. I had both of them drop off the middle asteroids in the set of 3 that are in the middle ring as well as the upper and lower ring asteroids (which I believe are all the same model). The side gun plats still drop shining laser turrets.

Also yet a new find:
I didn't have enough cash yet to try all of them but I bought 2 of the Star equipment turrets from the maintenance station interface. Both have issues.
The Isamov laser mk 2 has no association, I get the following when I hover my mouse over it:
Not found string: #M_HINT_SW3EXP_TURRET_AWPSNIPER_2 When I click it I get: Not found string: #M_LDESC_SW3EXP_TURRET_AWPSNIPER_2

I also bought the Isamov AK47 M1 High caliber Rifle turret MK1. When I equipped it I got a graphic of a red and white box surrounded by blue lines. I took them both into battle and the laser did track and fire but the rifle only tracked (was kinda funky watching this box tracking fighters) but it did no damage nor was there a bullet graphic coming out of it like say a Bardiche would have.

Also, This mod is supposed to incorporate Trucidations Missiles Mod. I have not seen any evidence of his missiles, only stock vanilla missiles. Very disappointing casue I love his mod.

I'll test more on my lunch break.

I think I have fixed the missing string problem now, atleast for my mods content, and not the GK1 - 4 Guns, since these arent even supposed to drop I suppose, still have to look into it why they drop at all now.

The graphic problem should not even be there, since that only happens when an 3D Model is either missing, or has missing textures.

But both the model and textures are existing, even in the hotfix there are duplicates of them.

Im also going to look into the missile mod and see why it somehow is "disabled" in the 0.6.1 Release, but it probably will be added together with 0.6.2X, although when I gather enough problems and fix em there would be a chance it will all be included in something like RC-9.

@rc-9
 

Hooray another RC, you know what, forget I said ANYTHING ever about have just "one" or "two" more of em, you can't ever have enough RC's.

Following Fixed:
-TE Fighters not buyable
-Forced StarRover Armor Simulation, its now there as an optional folder you can just drag&drop inside the game folder AFTER applying the hotfix.
-Price adjustements for ECM4/The Cyclone, TE Ships.
-SpecialMercenary Random Contacts calls upon an non-existent ship the modcalled "mothership_liger" which I remind having added ages ago, but I cant find el or anything anymore, so I removed the ship form the spawn table.

Added:
more or less Re-Added stuff from the latest version of missiles mod.

Not Fixed:
-Loot droppings from Hephaestus Turrets
-AWP LocData (Still trying to replicate Lotrek's issue)
-Bryna&KT not Hire-able (Also trying to figure out was wrong here exactly)
-Ak47 Missing 3d Model (No idea why, gonna have to look into it later)

RC yea!!
OK quick update on Bryna & KT. They showed up in Corrino's maintenance station canteen. I was using the same resolution as I was earlier 1440 x 900.

Also, that optional missile folder did the trick, all missiles in my inventory are now shiny.

I think Only I could find this bug, kinda odd and obscure I think. Here is how it goes:

(Story time! but no worries there's a TLDR at the end if you are a plebeian)

I took the Merc path in the story line and I am in Endoria 1 in my Astarte. I am no fan of this slow boat and at this point in the game the major caliber guns are not really needed so I go to Goblin Wizards shipyard and trade in that lard bucket for my true love the Ramadanta (what a bargain at only 200k!)

So here's the odd thing: I tried to take the portal from Endoria 1 to Tor (which is the next system and final detestation in the scripted mission to meet the agent at the oxygen station). I fly on up to the gate and nada, I can hug it, tickle it and even fly through it but no jump confirm. So I fly over to the all the other portals in the system and bam they love me like I'm cake and they so want me to confirm that jump but like the sly minx Ramadanta is we decline. SO we think OK all the other portals like us so let's check back in to see if the Tor portal is jealous and sadface he still doesn't give us the time of day.

SOOoo, now I am vexed that my sweetheart is on the outs with Tor so I load a save where I am Back in the rustbucket Astarte (It's OK though it's not cheating since the save predates my fling with Ramadanta). Now sure enough, Tor has a thing for the fatties because as soon as I rub up against his portal oh he so wants Astarte in him, begging me to confirm that jump.

TLDR: The Astarte seems to have a plot mission flag (for lack of a better term) that allows it to take that next mission portal from Endoria 1 to Tor. Ramadanta seems to lack the ability to do so.

Thanks for the report, luckily tho im not a plebeian.

Still, I would LOVE me some LOGfile, since its a golden tool to find out which story script to look for, I have looked inside Endoria-1 and didn't find any Requirements of MS to get thru the tor portal, it must be inside the quest script.

But the way you described this odd bug here, also 10/10.

Its also kinda nice to have 2 Testers ATM, including you Lotrek, and ShadoWarrior, it really speeds up the bugfixing indeed.

EDIT: I have found the problem, Goblin Wizard did use the parameter PORTAL_X:SetObject(Mothership); for all common portals, but he did not include portal RU and RD, which are ONLY found in eridan-1
So yeah, heres the repacked version: LINK, but since its a small thing to fix heres the instructions for people who like going to bit harder way:

> Go to the file Addons\@Motherships_Mod_0.27\gw_ms_shop.lua and replace the whole if
with this code
That should do the trick, and it will enable the tor portal to once again you going deep inside it ;)

Changelog:
StarRover Armor Calc Script is now Optional.

Thanks for the 10/10. :)
I downloaded and applied your most recent link (post prior to this one) and made the changes manually to the gw_ms_shop.lua because I am tricky like that. Imagine my sadness when Tor still rejected my poor sweet Ramadanta.

But don't fret my coding hero, I was in noob tester error. I loaded back to the save when I was flying Astarte (ugh no more please!) and bought a fresh new Ramadanta and voila Tor apparently likes her now!

My assumption is that the save game where I was piloting the original Ramadanta still had buggy code and by loading a prior save and buying a new one, fresh code was applied.

Also, I had to re-apply the "optional" missile mod files to get my pretties back. I am curious why it is still considered an optional and not coded directly into the main mod since it is listed on the main page as being a core feature.

Anyway, problem solved, good going good sir!
