"Ghost golden" ships - bug or feature?

[Rustem]

It is appearing after apply of extra weapons (missiles, explosion) by player and NPC-ships. This ships has NaN temperatures and energy. It is bug or feature?

[Cody]

A bug, I'd think - got a log?

[Rustem]

Found error in the log:

Code: Select all

11:10:17.474 [spawnExtraThargoids]: Spawning of any thargoid: tharglet_Thargorn_Treat
11:10:36.140 [oxp-standards.deprecated]: dealEnergyDamageWithinDesiredRange is deprecated for <ShipEntity 0xfe80268>{"Thargoid Gruntbuggly" position: (-22408.8, -99342, 675297) scanClass: CLASS_THARGOID status: STATUS_IN_FLIGHT}

What's need edit in ExtraThargoids OXP in the function dealEnergyDamageWithinDesiredRange? Replace on new method?

It is exist in deprecated OXP: Missiles and Bomb OXP also(rmb-fragmissileAI.plist):

Code: Select all

DETONATE = {
	ENTER = ("setDesiredRangeTo: 250.0", dealEnergyDamageWithinDesiredRange, becomeExplosion, "spawn: rmb-fragparticle 20"); 
        EXIT = (); 
        UPDATE = (); 
    };

[*] Missile explosions
The AI command dealEnergyDamageWithinDesiredRange is obsolete as it has bugs especially apparent at low frame rates. The JS method dealEnergyDamage is recommended.

I'm on this (i.e. will fix it), since the method in question is not merely depreciated but buggy. Asking people to fix merely depreciated methods is . . perhaps just a little too keen . . depending on how lazy OXP-ers are!

EDITED to fix something having gone rather wrong with the English.

I agree.

But these(ships/entity) cannot be killed. These is immortal.
