v0.9 Bug Report Thread
This thread is for reporting bugs with the newest release.
Remember that when posting bugs, you have to include as much info as possible. Circumstances, reproduction steps, common parameters, settings, your system info, etc. If a bug is specific to a certain ship or can be demonstrated with one, include .sb4 and .shp . If a ship uses custom sprites, remember to include these, too.
If you are reporting a new bug, you are allowed to double (and more, if necessary) post. Actually, its even better if you do.
Please post only if you have something useful to add.

On any keyboard press as long as this ship is in play.
Two sections are set to move on comma press and stop moving after ten frames.
One Twin Autocannon is set to enable and later disable on comma press.

Kaelis edit: This happens with key triggers, so don't use them for now.

Linear movement sections triggered to move via Weapon Targetting.
Sections move correctly in Preview mode when 'W' is pressed.
However, ingame movements seem to follow default linear movement targets instead.

Edit:
In windowed mode, with the options Shimmer, Gradient and Interpolate turned off, an empty sandbox is incredibly laggy. The framerate sits between 12~19 and the mouse/interface takes some time to response.
However, the splash screen melee and campaign/skirmish modes do not suffer this slowdown. Only Custom Game/ Sandbox incurs this.
Edit 2:
I've checked out all the options. It seems turning off SURFACES in the options fixes the Sandbox lag. All the other options have no effect. Something in the Sandbox takes up a lot of Surface features.

"Okay. I'm gonna get your money for ya. But if you don't get the President of the United States on that phone, you know what's gonna happen to you?"
"What?!"
"You're gonna have to answer to the Coca Cola company."

in an attempt to figure out how to get something to rotate CCW I set the "CCW Frames" entry box to 0 (it said it ranged from 0 to 9000) and the shipbuilder crashed.
Setting CCW Rot speed to 0 puts a 36000 in rot ccw frames (and a 0.01 in rot speed), clicking that box re-defaults it to 9000 (and rot speed to 0.04).ERROR in

I'm assuming it has something to do with that section, though exactly what is lost on meFATAL ERROR in

EDIT: I figured out a way around it. I just used a differently named piece that was identical. It works now!

Sections that have a weapon driver (aka making them turrets) cannot have any other sections parented to them. If placed in the game, an error such as this:

for object ShipSection:
Error in code at line 12:
(tr_ontype != 0 || tr_offtype != 0) ) then
at position 5: Unknown variable tr_ontype
Will occur.
Also, the L hotkey does not work in shipbuilder so weapon drivers must be assigned manually. Same goes for mirroring.
It seems that the only person who has successfully made good use of triggers and drivers is Anna.

A pair/four-pack of known bugs for the pile;
- Twin Blaster and Twin Autocannon shots spawn from the wrong positions at the moment.
- Twin Scatterbeam and Twin Laser/Beamer turrets fire a single beam that looks like two. This is harder to fix than it sounds, unfortunately. In the meantime, if you want a dual beam turret, make one manually.
- The point of impact of a torpedo takes double damage. This needs fixing so that the torpedo doesn't deal any impact damage, just explosive damage, IMO.

And the list goes on. I've replaced everything that needed to be replaced on this specific sb4 and every sprite is where it's supposed to be. But not according to SM. I'll see if I can find something, but I have no fucking idea what this is.___________________________________________

Strange thing, but after playing with the new shipED a bit, somehow I lost the power of drag&drop... even after exiting the ed, I still can drag a thing on my desktop
