Greetings.....I am DeathsHand of system m-117, and the people of my world have deemed this game most worthy since the great arrival of v0.82 However with this greeting comes a question, unfortunately. By my hand, the great Ta'i class battle cruiser was forged in the fires of the v0.82 ship builder.
Then, one day I decided to return to the great site to see about an update and behold! There lay that which I seek! As I activated the great battle-forge
I tried to access the ta'i blueprints, but to my peoples horror, I was greeted by a blank green screen

Tell me oh great builders of the ONE, will my v0.82 ships be compatible with the new verson? they work fine in sandbox, but I cannot edit them with the new ship builder.

The Auriak extend our greetings to you, people of Universitas! However, we sympathize with you for your most tragic loss. The v0.82 ship builder is out-dated, so vessels constructed within it will be unable to upgrade with the latest models of ship builder. We are already at v0.88, so I am sorry to inform you that we believe what you ask to be impossible. But fear not, for what you constructed once, you can construct again, and Better! That is what has kept us moving on in this dangerous galaxy!

Sorry, but there's no way to change versions. You'll have to remake the ship.

Fair enough, at least I can still use them in the v0.88 sandbox, not exactly easy to reconstruct one of my 800 section monsters though

Prophets foretell........BEWARE!.......it comes.........I sense it..........behold! DeathsHand's 150 ship model fleet!............MK-2 :twisted:

The Prophets are a bunch of losers who deserve to spend some nice private time with the Gravemind.

Since most of the versions of shipmaker have recently been in beta phase (moving from SM2 to SM3), compatability was not maintained in many cases - either by accident or intention.
