energy unit

It has been done. The Thargoid Plans script now removes the standard energy unit (damaged or not) before awarding the naval one.

Additionally, I intend to make it impossible to add an equipment item in violation of a restriction (currently, restrictions are only enforced when shopping). For reference, the available restrictions are:

requires_empty_pylon (implied by name ending in MISSILE or MINE)
requires_mounted_pylon (for missile removal)
requires_cargo_space
requires_equipment
incompatible_with_equipment
requires_clean (clean legal rating, that is)
requires_not_clean

These explicit restrictions were added around 1.70.

A clarification: incompatible_with_equipment is a one-way relationship. To make two items mutually incompatible, incompatible_with_equipment must be set for both. (This is not the case for the energy units in 1.71.) In 1.71, incompatible_with_equipment and requires_equipment take a string specifying one equipment item, but they really ought to allow an array of items as well.

Further clarification: my mistake, requires_equipment and incompatible_with_equipment can already be used with arrays.

Ok, an energy unit related problem again. My navel broke. Well, I was in a TL 13 system at the time. I can't find the navel on the wiki. But all I got from that ship equipment shop was an option to repair the normal one. I still have my broken one. Is this normal and I should go to a 14-15 TL or should I talk to the talk to the store manager? Tell him about what I could do to that star.

A few weeks ago also my naval stopped working after combat. But if that one is defect, you also have no normal one. I didn't dare to buy the normal one because I was afraid the defect naval one would be removed in the process. I had to fly around several days with strongly reduced energy. I noticed a repair was offered at last. Don't remember the level but it was one higher than I would have thought.

I'ts not in the wiki because it is a supplementary one from a mission.

Ok, It's a Tl 15 system that I need to go to. Or oolite hates me.

Ok, Now I really want to kill something.

I know, The ants in my bathroom! Any way, I am not getting the button to repair my navel energy unit. When I Repair my normal energy unit, I do not get the option to Buy a new Navel, and when I buy a new ship, too. I think I should go talk to the management.

Me: Hello, I am Commander Ben Richdiet. I have gotten a good realation ship with the navey, and I once Got a navel energy unit. but it broke, as did my standard One. On my ships computer, I noticed That you gave me the option to repear the standered one, but not my navel one.
Him: Oh, yes, I have one navel err... how do you humans say it? A replacement navel energy unit.
Me: Could you use it to replace mine?
Him: Do You have a navy certificate to carry one?
**shows proof**
Him: Ok, you have valid proof. We will not put one on.
Me: (I am getting really mad here) Why not?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
Him: Calm down. Your mother.
Me: What The heck did you say!?!?!
Him: (he Pulls his kill-oo-zap gun out) You humans say your mother when one gets mad, I thought it might help you calm down.

Then he tried to shoot me, but I ducked and he hit the wall, destroying it, and he destroyed the last replacement. He also got arrested. For, you know, Damaging galcop property. And trying to kill me.

I too have just finished Thargoid Plans and now I have both energy units. I'm using the latest test release 1.71.2? Should I worry about it?
