This has happened to me before (in CE) and I never got an answer. My problem is failing ship gifs:

I made sure shipmaker was in the foreground for the whole thing yet it still screwed up.

Weapon Fire Trigger, ingame, ONLY accepts certain weapons.

IE blasters will trigger while flak and particle gun do not invoke any triggers.

Edit: Don't know if this is a bug, but a blaster disabled from shooting will also be useless for the Weapon Fire Trigger.

Edit 2:

Certain weapons are BAD candidates for weapon drivers. For example, weapons slaved to, say, a flak gun will turn but never fire. Others turn, but only fire randomly. I have yet to sniff out all the culprits.

Very small thing, however if you save a .sb4 with no section selected (after ctrl+clicking, for example) then the resulting .shp causes infinite errors in game.
Not really a major problem, as you can just resave the .sb4 with a section selected, but... yeah...

Weapons parented to a section which is parented to a rotating section rotates/moves with the parented section perfectly but its firing arc does not rotate accordingly.

This ship demonstrates this: http://www.wyrdysm.com/battleshipsforev ... Voyhan.zip

@ Squishy:
PD weapons are not meant to be used with triggers, links or drivers.

This .sb4 generates infinite errors when I try and run it in game.

Example sb4:

Notice the red blinkers after the wings have extended in game and in SM. SM preview shows no problem. In game the red blinkers will be off position.

Im getting a similar problem, with moving sections, but it works fine in the preview mode, only ingame the doodads get totally off.
Should I post the sb4?

It won't hurt.

I get this error whenever a ship is destroyed which has the Aegis effect on select parts. First came across this bug in sandbox mode when I used destroy mode on one of my ships.

This ship: http://www.wyrdysm.com/battleshipsforev ... y-Adol.zip

When its section 'fly off' from its body, the mining beams fire at the flying section but doing no damage. The beams just pass over it.

I am quite sure that there are memory leaks. When I first fire the Sandbox with no ships it runs at 30fps. After a few battle and then quit sandbox and then re-enter it, the Sandbox runs at 25fps with no ship on the field

Found another bug.. Not to important or annoying though...

If you set your ships to jumping in sandbox (so not instaclick spawn), the weapons and modules that were underneath sections come all the way to the top again.

~edit Not only weapons have this problem, the entire layer order becomes messed up.

Ok. I came back to BSF after my friend derekiv told me about the major overhaul and new version. I downloaded it, and the actual .exe for the GAME works fine, but the ShipMaker didn't download. It still opens my old SM ver. 2.3 (I think). What is odd is that all of the folders and files for the new version of SM are there: I have a custom sprites directory and even an updated smsprites.ini file listing the new parts, but the SM is still an old version and it doesn't contain any of the new features!

Does anyone know what the problem is or what it might be? I'm kinda panicking here...
