A small update (v1.3.2) to assist with compatibility with the Coluber CH01 HUD and Xenon UI, plus some tweaks to make being in a nova system a little less...well...deadly.

Such fun places, nova systems!

I've noticed that since the last update that I am no longer getting any heat build up when I jump into witchspace.
Anyone else found this or is it just me?

Ah, yeah, that was me! The just-released version 1.3.3 should correct it.

And now, back to our regular programme...

Version 1.3.5 has just been released. In this version:

Tweaks to the control of the F3 HUD for simpler integration with Xenon HUD (and any other HUD that might want to integrate with Ship Config).
Identified "Masslock Compensators", "Power to Engines" and "Hard Way" OXP's as conflicting, and marked them in the manifest.

When I get some time I'll have a look at how I can make SC compatible with those OXP's.

I think I may have found a possible conflict with towbar oxp.
Prior to installing Ship Config oxp I was able to use the miner and miner assistant (items from Towbar oxp) without any problems.
I am finding now that using the mining option of towbar oxp results in the ships injectors being instantly damaged the moment that the towbar latches onto the derelict ship.
I have had a nosy through the Latest.log but it didn't appear to offer any clues as to why this occurs every time a derelict is picked up using the towbar - at least it didn't to someone with my far too limited knowledge.
I shall keep the log in case it my be of any use.

Thanks for the heads up. I’m not able to debug this at the moment, and won’t be in a position to do it for a couple of weeks. So if you could keep a copy of the log and the save game so I can get a copy later that would be awesome.
Thanks again!

I have pm'd you a link for a zip containing these files (the link should be good until 10 Feb 2020). Just let me know if you need me to post again after this date.

Thanks again

I have a couple of rather minor but interesting bug reports. All are on a Mac running the latest versions of Oolite and Ship Configuration.

First of all, the game crashes when the last heat sink is jettisoned. All other heat sink deployment works as expected, but when the final one is ejected, manually or automatically, the game crashes to desktop. Here is the log file:

Secondly, for whatever reason, it seems that if there are no packs that add UI images installed, accessing the Ship Configuration panel causes the flight UI to disable itself. I discovered this while testing the heat sink glitch and found that, with no other OXPS installed, adding littlebear's "Bank of the Black Monks" or gsagostinho's "Dangerous HUD" will prevent the UI from disappearing. Because science.

One final thing: when I was sorting through my OXPs, I realized just how many started with oolite.oxp.phkb. Your work here is greatly appreciated!

Yikes!

I'll get on to that straight away!

Here is the log file:

Unfortunately that's only the top bit of the log file. There's a limit on the amount of text you can add, so it appears the rest of the log was truncated.

Thanks for the report. I'll do some tests and see what I can uncover.

OK, v1.3.6 has been released. I could certainly confirm the major crash scenario, but I couldn't work out why it was happening. In the end, I re-engineered the method I was using to deal with expended heat-sinks to the way it should've been done in the first place, so win-win right?

Posted: **Wed Mar 04, 2020 11:55 am**

Both the heat sinks and the UI work perfectly now. Thank you!

Attempting to toggle passive mode in heat sink control interface (station-side) has no effect. Toggling auto/manual there works, though.

Posted: **Mon Jun 29, 2020 2:50 am**

I can't reproduce this one. Can you check the value of worldScripts.ShipConfiguration_HeatSink._controlMode before and after toggling passive mode? And check if the EQ_HEAT_SINK_CONTROL and EQ_HEAT_SINK_CONTROL_PASSIVE are present.
