Possible bug with packaged mod and galaxy.

Post by TexMurphy »

Ive got my galaxy with Sys1 and Sys2.

When I use it in just -filesys mode I can run them both (they dont display on the same map as in the other thread but they work).

When deploying them to a .dat file the game tries to load the Sys1.def as a galaxy file. here is the error text.

Loading Galaxy: Galaxy.def
Loading StarSystem: Sys2/Sys2.def
Loading StarSystem: Sys1/Sys1.def

Loading Galaxy: Sys1/Sys1.def
ERROR: invalid galaxy file 'Sys1/Sys1.def'
"STARSYSTEM"

It crashes at this point with no further info. This is after enabling the mod and then restarting the game. The crash is during the "matrixgames" logo. Before I restart it just doesnt show my galaxy, once again only in packaged mode works in filesys mode.

Looks like the game is reading all sub directories to the Galaxy folder for galaxy.def files. This shouldnt be as it should only load galaxy def from the Galaxy folder if I understand it correctly. At least it should not crash the game.
