This is the annual chance of starting a plague when nearby a colony. So when a Rift Strider is at a colony location for a month then it will usually start a plague at the colony unless there are other mitigating factors (12/1 chance per year).

This is the annual chance that the plague ...

Hi, I have a few small questions, if anyone from the dev team is able to answer them:

1. Is ShipHulls_PlanetDestroyer.xml not used anymore by the game? Is the ShipHulls_PlanetDestroyers.xml taking its place instead?

Correct, ShipHulls_PlanetDestroyer.xml actually became ShipHulls_Berserk AI.xml ...

Once a colony/outpost has been conquered/taken over by another race all freighters en route to pick up cargo should have order cancelled, ship to stop and circle for new order except the corresponding trade agreements are in place between the new owner of the planet and the race the freighter ...

Yes, here it is.

I made two small Testprojects.
The one I upload here is just started from scratch.
Mono.7z

If you load under Dir Mono.Windows the file "Mono.Windows.sdpkg"
it works.
If you load the one (that you have rename first) "Mono.Windows-Bundlename.sdpkg", it is not working.

I have done ...

If there's enough interest we could add a mechanism to load any desired bundles, perhaps specifying them in a text file or similar.

Then you could reference any new asset by path in the XML data files. Or just use this bundle-loading to override the default game assets (e.g. sound effects) with the ...

Could you short explain why harmony has to be used?
How can we use this harmony?

The default font is loaded as part of the core game content inside the bundles named CoreContent. To override the default font you need to load from a different bundle. Previously this required Harmony, which ...

Hi all

This is a heads-up explaining a new feature coming in the next version of DW2 that will provide better support for languages with non-Latin alphabets.

Unfortunately the window for releasing public beta updates has closed for this year, so this update won't be available until January ...

Hi Tyreanthil

Your savegames show that you have edited your home system. But the way you have added planets has caused problems.

As Max pointed out, one of your savegames shows overlapping planets, which prevents your ships from moving freely.

The other save shows planets added too close to other ...

I restarted the game and the number of idle freighters went from 250 to around 10.

I am using XL BETA, would you still want me to upload a save file?

Now the issue is not present anymore.

Thank you

We probably don't need that savegame anymore. The new 1.2.1.4 beta fixes an issue related to ...

Normally ships will not abort their mission for retrofits. But the problem described in the original post is some special-case logic to handle the initial research breakthrough that provides the first hyperdrive (Skip Drive).

This major breakthrough is considered so important that all ships will ...

If you don't see crashdump files in the data/Logs folder then you can also check your Windows Application event log for entries: Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Event Viewer > Windows Logs > Application.

Check for any error entries around the time of the crash. There will often be 2 entries ...

Thanks for those extra crashdumps.

I'm wondering whether you have mismatched file versions in your installation.

If you installed from Steam can you please try verifying your files.

If you used the Matrix or Gog installer, please try reinstalling to a fresh folder.

Also try without any mods.

Thanks for that extra info.

Do you have any other Crashdump files that you could upload here? Or do they always look the same as the one already at the top of this thread?

Any other different Crashdumps would help.

Thanks

Thanks for that savegame. Unfortunately I haven't been able to repeat the crash.

Does that savegame always consistently crash for you? Is there some specific action that causes it to crash?

Thanks for that report and Crashdump file.

Would be very helpful to see the savegame for this. Are you please able to upload to a file-sharing service and post the link in this thread?

Thanks
Elliot

I think you have a messed up installation. Possibly with multiple copies of GameEvents*.xml files.

I suggest completely reinstalling the game. Might be a good idea to install into a new folder.

Thanks
Elliot

You'll want the 1.1.6.5 update, which is the latest official update.

Later this week there will also be a 1.1.6.7 update, which will supersede 1.1.6.5.

Thanks for that report.

Unfortunately it looks like your attached savegame is wrong.

Can you please upload the correct savegame?

Thanks
Elliot

You guys rock!

I think the reason could be a fleet with ships with different warp drives.

Yes, that was part of the problem. You found a nice edge-case there

Anyway, fixed in 1.1.6.5
